Touch Pro 2 battery? - Page 3

I haven't received mine in the mail yet (T-mobile employee so I can't get it in a store), but my customers I've sold one to have been fairly happy with it. One customer did report poor battery life, but I'm chalking that up to her playing with the phone incessantly since she got it. We'll wait and see how she does once she is just using it normally.

I've tried to adjust the brightness but that doesn't seem possible (or I'm an idiot..lol) any other tips/tricks to increase the battery life?

It's not uncommon for a brand new lithium type battery to take a few full charges before you start getting the full battery life you can expect, so give it a few days and see if it doesn't improve.

Also there is a such thing as a dud battery. If you don't manage to see an increase after a few days, you might have a defective battery.

Are there any options out for additional batterys plus the charger for it?

I bought 2 extra batteries and charger of ebay for 17.00 work perfectly.

My Opinion coming from a Titan is the battery life is amazing. I carried 3 batterys with me at all times when using the Titan.

I love my TP2...

It is bigger and it lasts LONGER even with the big screen.

Whats the TALK TIME ?

Are there Ext batterys for TP2 ?

Hoping HTC will be out with a 10hrs Talk time
So then maybe we can get 8hrs for sure

I just got a tp2 3 days ago and i will say the battery life is amazing the tp1 would only get like 4 hours of web surfing till it died, this bad boy will last 12 or more straight hours of use, it got off the charger at 6pm yesterday and its now 12pm the next day with 40% left.... its definantly a major step up. even with a bigger screen it smashes the battery life of the tp1..

now that is some great battery life!
tpro 1 would only hope to get that - and that's with an extended battery!
