Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

It would drain alot, that's the only thing I don't like about the N900, it seems to use alot of power once connected to a network constantly. I'd say around 3 hours or so browsing on wifi and my battery dies.

My battery seems to have gone crazy(again), it's going down faster even when idle. My mother's phone would go out twice a day while idling too.. Strange, maybe I should uninstall some applications or something?
Using 2g already, low brightness etc...

Even if I don't trust this Chinese ones at all, for 13$ it seems to be worth a try. Where you got it from?

Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

Hey could you tell me where I can get one of these batteries for my n900? I've searched online and can't find any place that sells them. Thanks in advance ... oh by the way, are you noticing any extra heat from the battery? Are you overclocked?

Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

I guess it will suddenly drop to 0% at an unpredictable moment and phone will switch off.
It is more easy to believe in broken capacity meter circuit in chinese batteries than in outstanding performance. Well, i've seen batteries that report weird values quite often.

What does battery graph report?

Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

I had 60% battery and I turned on alarm clock, after 4 hours it woke me up, battery was empty... Wtf, I had it going for 4 days+ and now suddenly screwing up like this...

Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

If he is right watever he is sayimg than its awesum....but u cant rely on these chinese products... there product quality is really poor '

Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

@darguzar do you feel the phone is getting any hotter? any other problems so far?

Re: N900 battery life questions, issues, scenarios
 

I think yes, because I am not a heavy user, but I almost always end up with a dead phone before the day is done. Usually I charge the n900 at work as well as over night. I use all the battery tips (lowest brightness, don't use auto-connect, disable gps, etc...)

Edit: sorry this was a response to someone wondering f they would only get 2 hours if they used wifi constantly.
