Re: Any regrets??
I'm still holding off. I had my heart set on the Note 5 but the 3000MaH battery has frightened me . For those of you who have made the switch, are you happy with it? Has the device been everything you've hoped for??
Thanks
How long do you need a battery to last, and what is your usage pattern like? It can't last forever, so I assume you have a duration requirement in mind...
I have been testing my phone for the last two days, and here is what I experienced so far:
Day 1 - A very light usage workday. Phone removed from charger at 6am and never trickle charged during the day. Charged the phone before I went to bed at 11pm with the phone battery at 35%. Phone lasted 17 hours and still had 35%.
Day 2 - A light/moderate usage workday. Phone removed from charger at 7am and never trickle charged during the day. Charged phone at 10am with 10% left on the battery. Phone lasted 15 hours and had only 10% left. When I played with "ultra power save mode", the phone told me that the 10% charge could last another 2+ hours (but obviously in the limited ultra power save mode).
I have yet to use it on a heavy use non-workday when I have no access to an AC wall outlet... But for the 80% of the time that I am just living through my workday, the phone battery capacity is pretty impressive...
