Haven't seen much difference (was never too bad.)
Gotta give mine few more charges before I can tell.

My battery life seems worse since the update. Much worse.

Re: NEw OTA Update is a battery saver!!!

Did you go through and tweak all the battery saving items that you had prior to the update like disconnecting from Google Talk and Stopping the automatic sign in?

Re: NEw OTA Update is a battery saver!!!

I noticed a HUGE improvement yesterday. My battery normally was dropping like a rock within 1 hr of taking off the charger (usually to 75%) and then staying stable for the rest of the day (about 10%/hr). Yesterday, after lunch, I left it on my desk, off the USB and when I left to go home, it was around 90% (after 5 hrs). I'll take that in standby mode.

I wonder how well it will do making a ton of calls like I will today...

Re: NEw OTA Update is a battery saver!!!

Also remember a few items were added.....ie new radio....the radio could have a factor on battery life as well as pri. Say you were in an area where you had a weaker signal with the new update to pri and radio they may have tweaked some setting which may be helping.
