Some of us have been spoiled by the huge batteries for Motorola devices... do you guys think the 2600 mAh battery on the SGS4 is good enough? It is bigger than the SGS3, so that's a good sign.

This is true, but we are a spoiled bunch in the first place with our smartphones and we'll gripe about anything that we think should improveIt still surprised me why everyone still talks about the battery on any Samsung device, when we all know that you can just pop open the back and install a fresh new battery. Now if you are talking about an HTC phone then I would understand.

Well first thing is what users get as their battery life is completely subjective. A 2600 mAh battery may last someone a whole day or longer while for someone who uses their phone constantly could possibly only make it through half a day and need a charge. It all depends on the user.For those of you who say the 2600 mAh battery is enough I have some comments:<br>
<br>
Im currently using an HTC Sensation 4G with a 2450 mAh battery. I also have 4 OEM batteries that were given to me over time. All in good condition.<br>
<br>
1) I charge my phone at night- if i can just swap out the batt with a fresh one when one dies, wouldn't that one have to be charged too? so therefore when I connect my phone to the charger at night I need to then get up in the middle of the night - switch the charged batt out for a dead one so that it can charge too?? otherwise how will i be able to swap out for a fresh one.<br>
<br>
It seems more likely to carry around a charge/sync cord<br>
<br>
the 2450 batt I have now will not last a full day when constantly checking emails, facebook , making calls etc. I need a charge mid day.<br>
<br>
With todays innovation, and use of phones (as they are no longer phones but hand held computers/video games) the battery needs to last more than one full day - more like 2 full days with use. What about those times when you go out at night after a long day at work, find a hot girl and hook up at the bar, then crash at her place-- you need more battery life because you need to call a cab to get you home.<br>
<br>
Or when you travel to Europe/Hawaii and play on the phone the entire time (8-12 hour flight) and its dead when you get there....<br>

With the competition of Droid RAZR Maxx having a 3300 mAH battery-- im a bit disappointed in the battery of this phone-- hopefully the firmware will have battery saving properties and make it last longer than others.
Why would you have to get up in the middle of the night to switch batteries in the phone, this is what I use Universal Cell Phone Wall Travel Battery Charger for Samsung N7100 i9100 I9300 | eBay , it works like a charm.For those of you who say the 2600 mAh battery is enough I have some comments:
