The phone has been uplugged for 19 hours now. Awake time is 2 hours.
Battery is at 50%
This is with texting, a few phone calls, using the app store a few times, reading and updating my status'.

I have had the phone almost a week and I have been on a mission to get great battery life.

Is that the stock battery? Seems pretty good to me. The important thing is whether or not YOU are happy with the life you get. Some people just like to complain. As long as the battery gets you through what you need, then it's fine.

Yes, that is with the stock battery.
I basically made alot of changes to things. I only use friendstream to update my statuses. Instead I use the official twitter and facebook apps which seem to drain less battery.
I dont have gmail contacts syncing. I use beautiful widget for weather and it is set to update every hour but not with every wake up.
I can go on and on with tweaks I made but it seems to be working!
