So I was the first at my store to get the Turbo 2. Looking forward to seeing if the battery life is indeed as good as advertised with moderate use. Charged to full at 730pm last night now 830am and its at 58%. We'll see! Anyone else?
How's battery life on the DROID TURBO 2?

Re: Battery Life
I have not really checked mine yet because I have been on it more than usual setting it up but so far it seems to be on par with the turbo from last year.

Re: Battery Life
I presume you were playing with your phone quite a bit between 7:30 pm and whenever you ended for the night. Biggest battery drainer is screen on time, especially a bright screen. I've gotten 7+ hours screen on time at about 35% screen brightness with my T1. Curious to see how the T2 performs.

Re: Battery Life
I'd love to see screenshots of your battery use graph, and also your screen on time. I'm sure others would love to see it as well.

Re: Battery Life
Nicely done.
These screenshots are useful. The other one is once you are on this screen, if you tap on
and then take a screen shot of the screen time on, that would give us the two most important battery usage factors.

Re: Battery Life
BINGO! That's it. Almost 4 hours of screen on time and it only used 14% of battery. That is somewhat amazing. IIRC, my T1 screen uses about 30% of battery after 4 hours screen on time, maybe more than 30%. Your lookin' good.

Re: Battery Life
Yes, I wouldn't let it get much below 20%. At this time you could charge it for 15 minutes and test Moto's claim that it yields 13 hours of additional usage. Just remember to plug it in tonight so it can charge up fully.

Re: Battery Life
Cool thanks ironically enough, the Verizon guy yesterday told me NOT to plug it in overnight. He said that's bad for the battery I said I never heard that and it's common practice for everyone I know lol! I know with Samsung once the phone reaches 100%, the phone knows not to charge anymore but stays in a pulsing mode to keep at 100% until it's unplugged. Some smart circuitry or something

Re: Battery Life
I would guess 99.9% of all battery chargers have a circuit that shuts down the charging when the battery reaches a full charge. It's a pretty basic design feature. I wouldn't worry about plugging it in overnight.
