    Just wondering what battery usage everybody else is currently getting? I am currently getting about 8hours of usage in total maybe a little less if using the device constantly...

    8? Wow, something must be going on in the background. That seems a bit off.

    I'm at a loss.

    My day usually starts at 7:30AM then I plug in by 10:30PM usually @ 17-18% battery life left. During the day I am constantly texting or on phone calls, in between I check my emails, read news articles, facebook, bbm, and crackberry. I sometimes play Beach Buggy Blitz but that usually drains my battery quick so when I'm home I usually watch netflix, or play games on my iPad.

    The trick is to get a battery app JUST to see how fast it discharges. If it's between 1% battery every 15-30 minutes, with "moderate to heavy" usage, you are good. If it's 1% every 2-5 minutes, an app is using the battery incorrectly, or something got stuck in the system and you need to reboot. There are definitely a few apps that cause this. After you figure out which, the battery is amazing -- this is on the q10.

    Which battery monitoring app is this in your screen cap?

    Q10 here. I usually plug it in over night. Unplug around 8 AM, use moderately all day, plug in around 9 PM. Usually have more than 50% left at that time. Sometimes, if I am in an area with no wifi and poor 4g reception, the battery will go much faster if I forget to shut off wifi. For that I keep a battery charging bundle in my car. I really only had to use it once.

    Called "BX Battery Info"

    I tried 2 others (even bought premium on one), but they were not as good. This one has a clear large #, but the nice part is specifically the Change rate (per 1%) and the overall last time. They are great stats to make sure your battery is not being eaten up by a run away process or app.
    Ecm and BravoZuluDelta like this.

    I get up around 545 am and my Q is at around 25% or so at about 10 pm. I have BT and NFC on and take around 10 calls a day. DO some surfing and watch on average 1 hour of youtube a day. I also send and receive maybe 50 texts. My email is set for 15 mins with 4 accounts. So far loving the phone and battery life. I also use battery booster and it seems to help.
