    Thanks in advanceBattery life??-screenshot_2012-07-12-20-01-28.pngBattery life??-screenshot_2012-07-12-20-01-32.pngBattery life??-screenshot_2012-07-12-20-01-38.pngBattery life??-screenshot_2012-07-12-20-01-45.png

    Mine is pretty good. Make sure to drain the battery to at least 15% then completely charge it full while powered off.

    I'm happy with mine too. Much better than the Razr or other phones I've tried.

    Since I got mine on Friday, I've spent the weekend conditioning the phone. But I also use the basic battery saver tips. The screen is so bright that I can't tell the difference between 0% and 50%, so I keep it at 0%. For FB and Twitter, I've turned off the notification and do manual refreshes when I open the app. Nothing for me is that earth-shattering that it can't wait. I use 4G only when I'm downloading or uploading something big and use Wi-Fi almost exclusively at home and work, both secure networks.

    So we'll see what happens in the real world tomorrow, but I think I'm going to be pretty happy.
