Is it just me of battery life has gotten way better?

I definitely notice an increase in battery life. Installed ICS this morning around 5AM, charged it to 100% and unplugged around 9AM. I have literally been using it all day with heavy, heavy use just exploring all the new features and it's only down to 65% as I type this. Normally, with this amount of use on Gingerbread, I'd be down to 40-50%.

Did anyone else notice that the screen quality is a bit different? On auto, it seeks to dim a bit more than before.

Yeah I definitely noticed that. At 10 percent brightness it's way dimmer than gingerbread

The first the two guys. You two have the Razr Marxx so i expect your battery to last a very long time. I myself only have the Droid Razr and I use to get 12 to 13 hours of use. Not loving ICS when it comes to battery life.

Not seeing the drops like I was on gingerbread. Battery is good.

But I find the stock battery meter lies... Check it out..
