The screen I can live with, its really nice in actual fact. Is it the latest update to the OS that’s impacted the mostly heavily on battery life? I’ve turned off as much security and push notifications as possible. Run the screen at 35-40% brightness and don’t really use the phone all that much and I manage about a day from the battery.
I’m hoping with the next OS update they can improve the battery, I get the impression from a few articles on this site that this is a new problem with OS10.3.1476432 whatever its called; because as far as I’m aware Blackberries have been lauded for getting two days life before another charge, and that’s with hammering the phone! I was hoping the smaller, more low res screen of the Classic would ensure manage this easily.
