    I didn't use it heavily. Only 5 times to browse the web. But still, it is an amazing performance.

    Is it normal ?

    That sounds about right. If you want your PB charge to last longer, turn off wifi and blutooth when your PB is in standby. Also, turning down the screen brightness helps too.

    That battery indicator doesn't seem to be very accurate for me. The other night I got a warning I was at 9%, just doing some light web browsing. It was dead about 5 minutes later. No way that battery had 9% left when it said it did.

    Sorry, I didn't make my phrase clear enough.
    What I meant is that that my battery has dropped only by 6%, so the remaining battery was 94% after 24 hours. Which is pretty impressive.

    How much did you actually use it in 24 hrs? It should be able to sit in standby for weeks before it discharges completely.

    That is pretty normal for mine with only using it a few minutes for a few times.

    I am not sure how long it lasts on Standby but my second pb does not last anywhere near that long on Standby. Maybe a week and I don't even think that long.

    Strange, mine has definitely sat for over a week and still been around 80%. I don't have any email accounts linked though, so that may help.

    Both of my PlayBook last a long time in standby mode and with heavy use about 7 hours. I am happy with both products.
