This has probably been asked in some form to death on every Android forum in existence. My problem is I've never found a straightforward answer.
I see some people complain that their phone has been off the charger for 6 to 7 hours and it's at 75%. (I've heard of complaints for even lengthier times)
Then others say w/ heavy usage they get 5 hours while others claim they get 10 - 12 h on heavy usage I'm aware that relativity plays a huge role in this of course.
Battery Stats Plus also shows people that have ridiculously long times on their batteries. (Although I suspect foul play.)
I don't think my phone has ever lasted long enough for me. When I first purchased it, it was always dying after I got out of work. So it was probably discharging in about 9-10 hours; heavy usage* for maybe 1 h 45 mins of those 9 - 10 hours.
Full time heavy usage usually got me 5 - 6 hours.
And that's with almost every reasonable power saving measure taken: Brightness on lowest setting, Juice Defender, no live wallpapers.
So what is your phone like without rooting, oem battery, on mobile data...
For heavy usage as I've defined it as well as normal usage.
*Heavy usage to me is screen on for 85 - 90 percent of the time using the phone. Surfing the web, facebooking, gaming...etc. constantly on mobile data. (Maybe even listening to music)
