Just don't let your idiot friends that own iphones get you involved in group texting. 500-600 texts in the span of 2 hours will suck 10%-15% out of the battery. Nothing you can do to stop it other than airplane mode. Happy to hear you're loving it.
We must...We must...increase our boost

OK.. The big factors in determining your battery life will be, screen on time and brightness.. As well as signal strength and other processes you may have running.. I can get close to 9 hours of screen on with so so conditions.. I live in a fringe area and keep my screen pretty dim..or i should say... I used to.. I did a fdr and my battery life is now terrible again.. Until the phone situates...
OK, need some help here, what is a/an fdr?

Factory data reset.. It makes the phone just like it was when it came out of the box.. A fresh start...
Yep, an FDR is like re-installing Windows on your computer. It wipes everything, including all the cache crap and random leftover files that build up over time. I often do one at the one year mark of phone ownership (if there hasn't already been a need up to that point). It breathes new life into a phone that may start lagging with age.

Do you happen to know if maybe I have a hidden button too (somewhere) ?

It's also a very fast way to fix most user caused errors in a device.. And software glitches... Like if they change a setting and the phone acts crazy.. Can't figure out why?? Instead of being frustrated for weeks.. Just do a fdr and reset up the phone.. And of course.. If you back up your data it makes it pretty painless... If not.. Its a major pain..

Nuts, I thought FDR was a past president 
what do I know ?
what do I know ?I have only had the Turbo for a few days now, but I am getting 30+ hours of battery life a day out of it consistently (with a little higher than moderately heavy usage as it is new and I am playing with it quite a bit).
As long as it makes it through the day and I can come home and set it on the charger every night - I am happy.
The only thing that gives me pause regarding this phone now is really only the camera...

Unfortunately I haven't found that magic reset button for us old geezers.
