Galaxy note 2 battery questions...

[umer yes]

i got my note 2 yesterday and i used it the whole day with wifi constantly on(browsing), listening to music, with sync off everything is perfect the only that bugs me is the fact that it only lasted 5 to 6 hours.Does your note 2 last the same when using it heavy or is there something wrong with my battery or phone? and one thing more, when i view my battery drain apps, google chrome is usually the 2nd or 3rd on the list, is this normal? honestly i was expecting much more from this phone battery wise....thanks

It depends on what you have running, signal strength, on screen time, settings etc.

I am a heavy user and on stock I could get 5+ hours on screen time with stock battery if I use Wi-Fi. I'm in a weak signal area so on 3G I would get 3-4 hours on screen time.

I don't like to worry about battery life, so I choose to get a 6500 mAh extended battery. Now I get 8-9 hours of on screen time. I'm happy with it and I like the bulk.

Screenshots of your battery stats would help us determine what would help improve your battery life.
