Hi guys first post,
My contract was due an upgrade so I moved to android with the new Z3 and I am very happy. The phone seems all round a solid choice and initially very stable. Where I come unstuck is on general set up - what should be set to on or off so as to ensure I'm maxing the much announced battery life.
I have it set to sync, GPS is on, lifelog is on and have accepted all the Google content as and when I have opened them. Generally Bluetooth is switched off but I'm not sure what should/should not be on?
I'd say I'm an average user with a combination of browsing streaming downloading listening to music taking photos..... Oh and nearly forgot making calls
I take the phone off charge around 6.30 am and if stamina is off it shows 16hrs ( 1 day 1 hour standby expected) and with stamina on it shows 1 day 16hrs (2 days 10 hours in standby expected) is this OK?
So since 6.30 today battery has been on stamina with battery discharging at 65% to this point, having been on for around 11.5hrs - screen on time about 1hrs 50 Walkman on for 1hrs 45, 15 mins of calls and some pics.
I used it the other day quite heavily for browsing and at 52 % was about 3.5hrs screen on time.
I would have uploaded the screen pics but don't know how lol.....or how to read the lines under battery usage section . I suppose what is asking is this about right? I am happy with this but don't really know how it should be configured and what norm looks like.
Thanks guys
