    About 36 hours, if I run it all the way down. I'm a relatively light user.

    How is 10.2 holding up? Any issues with the software as I'm assuming it's a leaked firmware??

    Skype no longer works. But I'm aware that there are workarounds. Other than that, everything is hunky dory

    I use my phone a fair bit and would have to say I get about between 1 and half days to at least 2 days max if I don't turn wifi on and constantly run 3G only (never switch 2G on at the mo) if I am using wifi to save my data I get about a day...I find it hard to use my phone lightly because I freakin love it soo much lol

    I'm on 10.2.0.1047 and it lasts all day...it's only died completely once, which I let happen.

    I am on twitter a lot, and while I do love Blaq, it uses more battery than the stock twitter app does. I usually don't mind though, because I'm always with a charger of some kind.

    Do you keep it on normal data connection? Or do you use wifi at any point?

    I get about 2.5 days with light usage. Keep wireless off, unless I need it, and fetch email myself.

    For heavier usage times, I can go over a day.

    I am really happy with the battery though! I just didn't want to get one of those phones that I HAD to charge every single day.

    Yep--"Wicked" is absolutely a NE term! Used to date a gal from Cape Cod that used that term in every other sentance, and I still do use it--30 years later-LOL! Its addicting!
    Battery Life is awesome on my Q10 running 10.2.1047/810. Normally charge all night (btw, using my old BB9810 charger not the one that came with the Q10) and unplug it around 6am. It goes all day with average use and normally around 11:30 pm or so when I plug it back in, it still has an avg of 40% left on the meter. I do wish a DEV would put out an app that measures the actual hourly drain in a % like many did for the 7.0 OS phones. Battery Guru is looking into per an email from them. So--I'd say the battery life is "Wicked"!

    Battery life: almost a week (I barely use the phone)

    I keep bluetooth, wifi and sync turned off. No apps loaded. Still assessing battery life before I start loading stuff on it. Once I do and battery life changes drastically then it will be easier to pinpoint which new app is draining the battery. I've had the phone for just over two weeks.

    How boring...

    You paid a good sum of money for that phone. Word of advice - use it to its full potential.
