So far so good with me! I am a HEAVY user, and I love the life of this battery.

Much better then my TP. So far it lasts pretty much all day and I use the hell out of it. Today I was roaming a lot and it drained twice as fast but I'm used to that. Not sure how long it takes to break in the battery.

Actually, I think it's crap. I've had it for 3 days now and not once had it made it to 7pm (moderate user)

Read this, lots of people having issues on the Sprint Forums with their phones not able to actually sleep:

Update your visual voicemail app and that should take care of the problem.

Battery is good on this phone considering how much beating I give it.

Updating my visual voicemail was the first thing that I did out of the box. I am still trying to burn the battery in but 12 hours is not enough for the day.

If you guys want a little more juice, Seidio just came out with a 1750mAh battery that fits in your device's existing battery space and doesn't require a replacement door.

I was bragging on the battery life here yesterday.. I had setup my Voicmail and noticed a huge difference today. I will check my other apps but, today was not nearly as good as yesterday. I also did the VV update.

I second all the above statements. I have literally been tryin to see how far I can push it and I've been presently surprised with its performance. Soo much better than my TP.
