Incredible Motorola Xoom Battery

[hoopstarrr23]

I'm simply amazed at the battery on this Motorola Xoom (Wi-Fi) ICS. I've been moderately using it for 19+ hours and the battery is still at 100℅. I guess you can say I'm pretty satisfied at this moment.

My other tablet is a 64GB BlackBerry Playbook and it has a great battery but nothing like this!

Do you really think that ICS magically made your battery that much better? Seems like an incorrect reading.

That was short-lived joy. As soon as I posted this thread the tablet shut down. Apparently the battery indicator isn't correct. I had to reply from my phone.

By the way, I just got it yesterday without turning it off. Maybe the reboot will correct this issue.

Sorry to hijack but I've also got a playbook - thought I was the only one with a Xoom (I've got the 3G though) AND a Playbook...

Anyhow, 19 hours seems very impressive, I installed the Green Power Manager app though on mine recently - so I can better control things. The 3G eats battery just idling on the mobile network, so I've configured mine to keep the radio off entirely unless I switch mode - with WiFi turned off 10 mins after the screen goes off... that gets me about 12 hours real use over a couple of days now compared to before where I was doing daily charges...

Actually I have a WiFi Xoom (got Day 1) and a 16GB Playbook too. Keeping the Playbook until BB10 to see how BB10 functions.
