I had a question on how to tell if the battery on my Razr Maxx is functioning properly, or if there is a fault. I purchased my Maxx a month ago, and it was great, I was going over 2 days before needing to put it on the charger. I had that phone about 10 days and had to return it for a new one because the SD/SIM card door wouldn't stay shut. So, my 2nd phone (still brand new) seems to have less battery life to it. No different programs installed or different usage than when I had my 1st phone. I always try to let the phone get down to 10% or so before putting it on the charger for a full charge. I let my phone charge yesterday, and unplugged it before going to bed, so the phone litterally sat all night with no use. I woke up, and was shocked to see my battery life down to 60% already. Here is what the battery said:
60%
8 hr 35 min
android os 43%
phone idle 24%
cell standby 12%
phone 11%
screen 7%
facebook 2%
com.motorola..provider.sugg 2%
This just seems way off. I hate to go back to Best Buy to ask for a new one, because I know I'm just going to get the "uhhhhh....well....did you change the screen dim setting to 'so dark you can't see it?'" Or they will want me to prove it, etc. Not in the mood to argue, especially since this would be my 3rd phone in less than 30 days. Any advice? What do you guys recommend?
P.S. - Again, my phone settings are the same, the apps are the same, no firmware updates or anything from the 1st to 2nd phone. Plus as you can see from the battery info above...nothing was really running
