GNex Battery Life with GSM

[joeynumbers]

I hear the battery life is pretty bad on the LTE version. I was wondering how the H+ version is doing?

I really want a GNex but the battery issues i have read about have kept me away.

Average for me from unplugging in the morning is 14-16 hrs as reported by android battery stats....typically translates to 2-2.5 hrs of screen on time.....wish it were more but I don't think its bad for Android. With my iphone I was able to get much more screen on time, but I like both to be honest.

16 to 18hrs+ no battery issues for me.
My GN is much, much better than my AT&T GS2!

Do you guys think the extended battery is worth to purchase?

About 16Hrs on average. Which is better than the SGSII, skyrocket, and 4s.

For me it's not since my battery is lasting me and I have an extra micro USB wall charger at work and 1 in the truck just in case.

FYI:
Found Genuine Samsung 2000mAh battery and door on ebay for under $45.00 from highly rated sellers out of the Far East, but delivery is going to take awhile.

Agree with all of those except the 4s. It's as good or better than the Nexus.....definitely get more screen time out of the 4S.

My 4s was one of the ones plagued with the battery issues that many have had and 5.0.1 was suppose to fix to no avail.

I never had any battery issues on my 4S, and have been very happy with my GSII and GSII Skyrocket battery life cycles. My GNex is in the mail from Negri, and I'm not worried about the battery life at at. I get great service, so I don't expect the same issues my buddy gets with his VZW version. He has the 3500 mah (pretty sure that's the size), and terrible reception at home and work- the battery only lasts him about 12 hours before it's completely dead. There's no LTE in his neck of the woods, but at my house, he gets 30+MBPS. He barely grasps a 3G connection for 90% of the week, and his battery life is pure .

I'd say my normal is 13-16hrs depending on usage. 3hrs of screen on time. On a mix of HSPA+ and WiFi throughout the day. 3 gmail and 2 email accounts pushing, twitter/facebook push sync, etc.. and 65% screen bright.

I definitely don't baby it or go out of my way to save battery and it makes the whole day easily.

Man those battery usage times sound great.

Charge every night. With light use you can charge every other. But if you are like me 12-18 hrs. The battery life is not great but its twice as good as my ATT Inspire which I had to charge every few hrs.

I just posted this on a different thread, but I'm more than happy with my battery life:

My Battery life is great! 14 hours of moderate use

FYI:
Scooped up (off of ebay) a 2000mAh Samsung battery and cover and although I didn't really expect to see much more battery capacity vs. the stock 1750mAh battery I am pleasantly surprised that I now can go just over 2 days without recharging with light to moderate use. Plus the fit looks stock with no unsightly battery bulge and both of my cases fit with no problem!

does auto brightness help or hurt screen battery drain??

Most ppl say it does but i keep it on I like my screen to adjust depending on the lighting I'm In

 

[maverick96]

I had mine on auto brightness and it always made the screen look way to dim. Anyone else notice that?

 

[co1458]

Wow you guys are lucky!
Barely getting 6 hours with my LTE

I get about 15-16hr with moderate to heavy use. with 4.0.4 its been a bit better.
