    Unplugged it will only go for a few hours tops under constant use. You may get three full hours. More like two. I plug mine in when using it as a modem.

    It will die precisely 2 hours, 17 minutes, 35 seconds, and 8 milliseconds faster than with hotspot off.

    It definitely drains quickly. I use mine almost daily and it can consume 20% of my battery on my lunch break.

    I use Bluetooth to tether my N7. Doesn't drain as fast as actually being used with the screen on.

    How are the speeds using Bluetooth versus wifi hotspot, assuming a good LTE signal?

    Just tested, and I think Wi-Fi might be better. Bluetooth, I dunno, acting funny
