I rarely talk, but I text all day. I browse for at least an hour a day (usually on this forum). I play Cut the Rope for about 30-45 mins a day and then Third Blade for about an hour. I listen to music for about 3-4 hours of the day and when it's finally time to go to bed I have about 30-50% of battery left. So for me, that is absolutely amazing!

Granted, today was a light day. But this is my third Android phone (Hero, Evo4G), and I couldn't ever expect to get 24 hours of service even if the phone was sleeping the entire time.

Today I used it as a phone and did some email, surfing news sites, weather radar (it DOES rain in California) and light usage for me. Still, look at the results of nearly 24 hours without a charge:

(Some people get concerned about the OS usage. I think it just reflects light usage because not a whole lot else was using the battery.) EDIT: I had about 48% remaining battery after nearly 24 hours of usage.

Two days into this phone and I'd say its going to be quite good. I am coming from a 3D which had pretty good battery life as well but had a bigger capacity battery so that was to be expected. After the phone has gone through a few cycles, I'll give it a second opinion, but I've make it through two full days with light usage and still have 75%+ remaining on battery by 8PM or so after starting the day at 6AM.
