I've been looking for a phone for my wife that she can use as a tablet too and carry around in her purse and have good battery life. This is important because she is the worst when it comes to a "charging your phone every night" routine.
I found myself here while checking out the goophone S4 mega which claims to have a 3500mah battery and then stumbled upon you guys and have more or less decided on the inew i6000 2GB Ram version even though it has a smaller batter on paper.
Now my wife will probably have 5-6 calls a day max. but will have 3G-Wifi open all the time. She will surf the net 1-2 hours and play videos for our 3yr old son on youtube for 1 hour max. 1-2 whatsapp messages and thats pretty much it. No games at all.
How long do you guys think the battery will last for her on regular settings? How long does the battery last for you...
Hi and welcome!
I think battery life on this phone is great. But you can't expect a phone of this screen size and intensive use to last longer than 1 / 1.5 day, none of the phablet batteries in those circumstancies will last longer than a day.
In standby mode (WiFi and bluetooth on) I think this battery will last two or three days (it's better than my Note 1), but once you start using it it will suck up battery pretty quickly, which is the case with all phablets, as screen on uses most of the energyl
The good news is, you can buy spare batteries for this phone ;-)
