I've had my One X+ for about 5 days now and I really like the phone, except I'm very disappointed with the battery life so far. First, it takes a very long time to charge. I downloaded an app which would give me the history of the battery percentage, and last night I plugged it into the included wall charger at 15%. It took a full 6 hours for the battery to reach 100%. That seems like an unusually slow charge. I've even seen many times where it is plugged in, and I'm downloading an app, listening to music, and browsing the web or playing a game, but yet the battery is still decreasing! I've seen that before using a USB charger, but not a wall charger. That all wouldn't be so bad if it stayed charged. I intentionally didn't use the phone much this morning, only checked a few emails, no calls, wifi off for most of the time, bluetooth off, and about 45 min of pandora streaming over LTE. By noon it was down to 50%. At noon I started playing Hill Climb Racing, which I consider to be a fairly non-cpu intensive game to play. After playing 15 min it had dropped down to 35%. I can't imagine this is normal, right? Is there such a thing as getting a bad battery in a phone? Should I try to exchange it?
This is my first android phone moving from an iPhone. I realize that having widgets and such can drain your battery, but I don't have many on the phone anyway.
