Are you seeing any cell standby drain issues like T-Mobile? thanks.

It seems AT&T users as well -- Seems to be related to wifi being on.

No issues here. Take note that I didn't start at 100%. It says 39% drained therefore I started at 86%. Pretty much been on it nonstop though so can't comment too much on standby. I'll test that tonight.

Oh really? I thought it was just T-Mobile. Yikes.

Waiting to hear from some VZW users.

39% drained in 3 hours? That seems like a lot to me.

 

[STEVESKI07]

I was on it for 2 of those hours. Usually I'm only on my phone for 3 or 4 hours the entire day. Standby should be around 1% per hour or less, but I haven't tested that yet

Lots of downloads, changing settings, icons, etc.

Ok gotcha. Battery life should improve with a few charge cycles too.

Yeah sorry my post is probably premature. I don't know about standby yet, but battery life during usage is very good. Estimated around 5 hours screen on time. I'll have to set the phone down for a while to be able to test the standby issue.
