Really? This phone has one of the best batteries that I have used, it just kills my iPhone 5 in useage. how do you use it and how many apps are running in the background will affect the life. My LG isai with is the same as the G2 shows 48% and it was last charged 3 days ago.

I would say that you have a lot of apps running in the background that you do not need.

Re: Battery sucks !

your screen is using 28% of the power, what brightness level is it set to? Mine is set to around 28%, the display will use more power than anything else on the phone

Re: Battery sucks !

Are you really complaining of 3 hours of screen time? Of course that's going to drain your battery, especially if your brightness is high.

Yes , Because I Know There's People Out There Who Use There Phone More Than Be And Still Will Have Much More Battery , 3 Hours , WOW

I don't know if you have a problem honestly. You say 2 hours wouldn't count but 4 hours of on screen time is not bad. It's not stellar but on a good day you would get 5 to 6 I would guess.

I get around 6-7hrs screen on time. Definitely the best battery life I've had on any phone.
If your battery life is underwhelming, try installing wakelock detector. Let it run throughout one of your days (off charger) and it'll tell you if any apps are keeping your display awake or your cpu awake.
Cpu wakelock is a killer of many batteries because rogue applications will keep the Cpu awake when it should be sleeping.

Edit:
Also some people have issues with battery when they port over their music. Sometimes songs get corrupted and cause the media server to keep trying to scan. I wouldn't think that's the case so with how small the percentage of the battery your media has used but I figure it's worth noting anyway.
