Evo got an update to help battery, will this phone?

I updated mine to the 2150 MAh battery. Helped tremendously. LOL.

But, it will still be cool if they figure out a way to consume less power I suppose.

Couldnt hurt.

 

I don't think it's the top priority at HTC right now so I wouldn't hold my breath.

 

Yes, it is. But, the update is bricking a ton of Evos...soooo, maybe not so good.

There are ways around this battery thing on the INC. Management, extra batteries, I mean please this phone does so many things at the same time if you don't pay attention to what's going on, sure you're going to get poor battery life. I think most of the "negative" posts are from people who have a smartphone for the first time. It takes some time to get used to all the different settings and options available. Apple besides being controls freaks re: user experience, puts those restrictions on the iphone for a reason, "battery" life. This open platform on "Android" needs more attention to detail than your average iphone user.

 

Well, maybe some are finding battery life a challenge but I find that it's not that terrible for the type of use that I'm doing. Battery management is just a part of having this phone. I don't think everyone who's had batt issues has tried all the energy saving tips out there, that's all I'm saying...

 

You're probably right. My point, however is I hate that I have to sacrifice features (by turning off stuff or reducing its use) when a device from a different manufacturer (Moto Droid) performs far superior under the same strenuous conditions.
