Touch vs Mogul BATTERY LIFE

You posted those numbers afterwards, and they make sense to me. You're definitely on to something about the Mogul draining battery in areas of poor service. I bet they optimized that on the Touch after seeing how horribly they designed the Mogul's radio

Yes, agreed - threads like this attract fanboys on both sides.

I do think in my case that a large % of the battery difference is better reception by the Touch in this building. My Mogul battery does pretty well when I have good reception.

The Touch will be awesome with Seidio's upcoming 1500 battery!

Glad you were able to get a Touch - do you have it yet?

The Seidio battery is OEM size right? That will be great...

I got my Touch ordered early this morning. She said it would be here in 3-5 business days.

DRAT I should have asked for overnight.

Unless you really need a keyboard or WiFi, I think you'll love your new Touch!

So you basically stole the 4 batteries from sprint!

I think that on a hardware level there are differences. The Mogul has more circuitry with the WiFi and keyboard systems, and just uses more power. The Touch doesn't have as much hardware to power and demands less. If the Touch's battery life is better than a 6700, I'm good.

I think something is wrong with my touch.... i have to charge it twice a day.

i had the mogul first and after sprint's update the battery life was amazing. before the update the battery life on the mogul was horrible. the touch is in between, not enough juice to have resco radio or sprint tv running all morning, but enough to listen to mp3s for a few hours and run home and charge it at the end of the day.

i am charging my touch 2x a day also...i have hotmail(pushmail) and s2u2 running. i barely use it during the day for phone calls. I tried using my bluetooth but damn that ate power!!
