Now if the galaxy had a 3000+mAh battery in it, then we would be talking.


As a comparison:
My old P1i Sony Ericsson had a 1050mAh battery!! A 240MHz processor, small (and shitty compared to the galaxy) screen. And nothing special (UIQ 3 operating system though)

The galaxy has a two processors, one clocked at 500+Mhz, a much bigger and brighter screen, GPS, Compass, accelerometer a better operating system.
And yet, the battery is barely 1500mAh. One would expect it to be in the high 3000 mAhs if it followed the other hardware.
