Posted via CB10 on my Z10!

Not got a fancy graph like yourself, but here is my real world numbers.

Z10 - 11 hrs from full to empty (switching it's self off). With Normal use, emails, odd tweet, odd fb status and feed check, photos of the kids when they do sumat crazy, few 8 track songs and the obv browsing of CB10.

Q10 - 16 hrs from full to empty. Doing the same as above.

Here is today's results:

8:19am - off charger
- Blaq open (all day), post 1-3 times
- BBM open (all day), 33 messages
- FB, Check posts for 10 mins (left open)
- CBC, Check news for 15 mins
- CB, open and check news 30 mins (left open)
- streaming music on BT for 20 mins.
- Received 30 emails, responded to 6
- WiFi ON
- BT ON
Phone call for 25 mins

Battery is @ 41% at 12:10pm
That's 60% gone in 4 hrs, Unfortunately I play hockey tonight and will not be home until after 11pm.

This is on a NON work day for me, all I have done is run to the hardware store, answer a call and some BBM's. On a working day I will use 4-5 times as much data and I am 60-90 mins a day talking.

Telus network in Ontario, Canada
STL100-3
OS v10.1.0.2014
Screen Brightness @ 15% and Timeout @ 20 Seconds

The battery life on my Q10 is so ridiculously good that I can use a sundial to keep track of it...or a calendar!

Seriously, with light use it uses about 2% of its total charge per hour; with moderate use 3% per hour; with heavy use around 5% per hour. Obviously, I can easily get through the entire day without charging. I couldn't be happier. (Note: I am on Wi-Fi nearly the whole day which helps, no doubt.)

You guys should include your OS. Some are better than others.

SILENCE!!! For I have spoken...

10+ hrs on a single charge.

Z10 Running 10.1 on ROGERS. A few sideloaded Android apps (Google Maps, Waze, Flipboard) and frequent Facebook, Tweets, Emails (1 ActiveSync) photos and browsing.

Only possible with disciplined ritual of keeping the phone cool by using Airplane mode for about a min before switching from WiFi to Mobile (LTE).

Z10, STL-2. 10.1.0.2312 (.2354 OS) - official.

average battery life per day: 12-14 hours (normal usage, from fully charged to 5% battery, i never wanna flat my battery out)

max battery life per day: 18-19 hours (low to normal usage, from 100% to 5% remaining)

battery life after moderate to intense usage: 9-10 hours (from 100% to 5% remaining)

conditions:
- 24 hrs sync on contacts, 2 hours on 1 email account (yahoo - as it doesn't support P-IMAP)
- IMAP on ALL email accounts (i got 6 emails all of them are active)
- if emails do PUSH, PUSH is ON but sync is MANUAL
- emails are either P-IMAP or EAS
- BBM
- whatsapp
- fb sync (messages/comments coming in real time)
- 50% wifi 50% on 3G/H+ (LTE is OFF)
- several calls
- phone sometimes heats up (10% battery life is sucked out due to that)
- normal battery temperature: 20-25 degrees C, max temp: 31 degrees C
- 25% brightness
- lock screen gesture ON
- location ON but GPS location depends on the app, mostly i put this OFF except for maps & some apps
- BBM connection OFF
- data encryption OFF
- signal strength: 4 to 5 bars on 3G/H+ every time
- carrier: TELSTRA
- phone taken off the charger at 7.30 AM everyday
- BB Link connection is always ON with remote file access on wifi
- dropbox & box are only syncing when on wifi

the verdict: well, with all those settings i am pretty happy now that going 8-6 everyday is not a biggie for me at least. going 8-8 is doable, but i never wanna drain my battery until it dies as it will damage the battery in the long run, so my max drain limit is 5% before i hook the charger to my phone.

I've got a Q10 with 10.2.1 and with light use I can get 24hrs+. I took it charge yesterday at 0850 and it's now 0953 and the battery is at 33%.

My Galaxy Note had a 2500mah battery and id need to give it a top up charge late in the day with moderate use but with my Q10 I can keep it going until I get home from work.

GPS is always on and don't have any AF's running and I text throughout the day and have a browse on the net randomly when at work.

I've just bought a new battery and external charger for backup though.

Mine has been fairing a lot better after turning of BlackBerry Link connection.

Went from 6-10 hours a day to up to 10-16. On a average day more than 12 hours!

Ranges are depending on how much bluetooth I use. I play music off of it to my bt head unit in my car for about 1-2 hours a day.

3+ active whatsapp group, one very active bbm group, and the usual CB surfing, web browsing, other messages related activity.
