Agreed, that sounds plausible. Unreasonable as he was, I honestly think he learned a thing or two the last couple of days with regards to Android, so I'm rather satisfied. I again realized something as well: Meaningful conversation is VERY hard when people are not aware of their biases.As far as I could see from other threads its because it was someone that was previously banned. No clue if its the case but I can say from all the threads he posted in that he was not a very likable person, but not to the extend that a single post was ban worthy.
Who know, and to be honest doesn't phaze me much except I will miss the target practice.
+1 Symbian and Nokia. Battery Life ..
Oh crap dont tell me we have a ClintX 2.0?
.... and thanks for all the fish.
Lol
I was on symbian for years, it took roughly 10 seconds to forget it when I got my first android phone. Even the iphone I had for a year was better than symbian. Good luck getting whatsapp on your N8.

the "Go to", rather than the destination, as harmful."
Huh?
Yeah I just realised that its fine on symbian, was thinking of the N9 with meego. My bad.

In all fairness, this is probably not the experience that your typical Android user gets.Oh crap dont tell me we have a ClintX 2.0?
This is how phone typically looks in the afternoon:
I pretty much have to charge it halfway through the day, otherwise it runs out during the evening. Luckily I have a spare charger next to my desk at work, and a charger in my car, so I'm generally okay.
Dam, I just placed mine on charge else I could have updated with another pick. Was on 4 days.In all fairness, this is probably not the experience that your typical Android user gets.

Agreed that 6 days was a tad abnormal (Minimal use of about an hour a day), but it proves my point that the battery life is not because of the OS its because of the Hardware and how you use it.
On a side 6 hours? dude wtf are you doing to the phone? my HTC Desire HD can play 7 hours of movies none stop without a need to be plugged in. You have something seriously eating away at that battery.

Well, see for yourself - according to Android, most of the battery is being eaten up by the screen.
I don't think my usage is completely crazy:
- WiFi enabled
- 3G enabled
- Background syncing enabled
- Bluetooth disabled
- GPS disabled
- Screen brightness set to auto (Galaxy Nexus is very aggressive in dimming the screen - it actually kinda makes the screen look crap to be honest, but I put up with it for the sake of longer battery life)
- Receive 10-15 emails per day
- Receive/send 10-50 WhatsApp messages per day
- Check Twitter and/or forums every couple of hours
- Maybe some light web browsing, or read an article on Pocket or Flipboard
- Listen to music for maybe an hour or so
- No gaming
- No watching videos
That pretty much kills the battery in 7-8 hours.
Yeah you are right. That is normal use. But 7 hours for that makes me think twice about looking at a Nexus then.
Only 2 things I do different is radios are controlled via Juice and my screen is set to 10%.
Hmmm: http://blog.gsmarena.com/samsung-gal...pointing-test/
According to GSMArena, web browsing on on the GNex kills the battery in 3 hours flat. So I guess it's not completely unexpected.
Aah OK then.
Are you sure your battery is not faulty? I've got the galaxy S2 which {according to gsmarena} has a smaller battery than yours {through also a smaller screen} and I get about 8 times the life of your phone {on average 2 days between charges}, except when 3g is on I turn wi-fi off and vice versa, I set my brightness to between a third and half way way {turn auto brightness off}, I probably don't get quite as many e mails a day but do get about 20-25 Whatsapp msgs a day, don't listen to music much but I do play quite a lot of games.
