I purchased a brand new, in the box, factory sealed Samsung Epic Touch 4g last week and I have had nothing but problems with the terrible battery life.
Yesterday I decided to take the battery out of the phone and take a close look at it. I read everything on the battery, and then I noticed something odd......1500mah............wait that cant be right???
So i went onto samsungs site for the phone specs. I read the phone has a 1800mah battery, thats what I thought it should have. So i went to a local sprint store. I explained everything to the saleslady, and she was nice enough to open a brand new, sealed phone for me. It had a 1500mah battery. So she opened another and it had a 1800mah battery.
Something funny is going on here!!!
It seems to make sense to me that if the phone should have a 1800mah battery and only has a 1500mah battery, that could explain the random shutdowns and quick battery drain.
Needless to say I have purchased the Mugen Slim 1950mah slim extended battery, and hopefully this will resolve the problems.
So check your battery mah........maybe this is why we're having problems!
I have reserved the next post for a update/review of the phone with the mugen battery.
