The Battery on my Pro 2 is not as strong as the Pro. 20 minutes of talk, 10 txt and 10-15 minutes of browsing eats about 3 bars on a full charge.

I am going to keep track of the usgage & types of usage for the power drain.

I read that you shoud fully charge only a low battery. Also, do not charge the phone while talking on it.

I'm loving the battery life on mine. I'd think about getting a different battery if that's really the case with that amount of usage because that is pretty lame.

These phones use lithium ion batteries, there is no need to let the battery run low on a regular basis, that can cause more harm than good. So basically just keep it charged all the time. Now as far as bad battery performance there could be a number of issues going on with the phone but for the most part the common consensus around here is that the tp2 battery performance is alot better than the tp1
