After a couple of weeks of normal use the battery life increases.
I've had the phone now for a couple of months and in the beginning i had to recharge every two days.. but now i can easily get 5 days out of it.

Is there any firmware released for HK version of G900 ? If so, What're the improvements ? And what's the firmware number? |

Important question:
Can you set flash animations as standby pictures? (i mean does it have flash lite support? - because the media player uses flash lite animations 0_0 .. )
Is camera as fast as the K800 (i mean press the button, and almost instantly picture is captured; not like the k750i/w800 that took a little bit of time to capture the subject)
But most importantly, the FlashLite support... |

As d3tr0 already posted, the package shows the G900.  Here are some in-use pics:

Hello everyone!
The SE G900 is the first Smartphone that I own, and to be honest I didn’t expect such a bad battery life, looking at the SE description (12h talk-time)…
Here is what I did:
I got the phone 4 days ago; it came with a 75% charged battery. Went home, played around with it till the battery was completely drained, and charged at night (turned off) for 9hours.
Everything ok till now. Started using the phone as I used my old Samsung E590 (I don’t play games, most of the time I just make calls and maybe a photo or a movie), but noticed and the end of the day that the battery is down to half. By the end of next day had to charge it again for 2 hours till the battery showed 100%.
I’m now at the 3rd charge cycle, and the phone still drops down to 50% per day. I don’t run wireless, Bluetooth, or GPRS connections, transition is turned off, the screen is at 50%, and the battery save is on. Need to mention that I even turned off the stand-by functions to save battery that seemed to help.
Can anyone tell me if the battery life will build up as I do charges? I charge the battery only when it’s fully drained.
Did I do wrong when I first drained the battery instead of charging it for 12hours?
Does the stand-by function eat battery?
Sorry for the long post.
Thanks in advance.
LE: forgot to say that when i get near a radio player and singnal gets to 1-2bars u can hear the telephone searching for singnal or network. is that the gprs fault or does the phone search for a stronger signal? i think this eats up my battery since even when i have full bars i can hear the phone ticking from time to time in my home radio player.

from my experience, the thing that really drains its battery is not wifi or bluetooth or media player, but the screen brightness. also, how long it takes for the screen to turn dim/turn off.
i've done the test accidentally when i used the phone in the dark for msn. coz it was in the dark, so i set the screen brightness to 10%, then i used the msn for 8hrs straight while browsing the net. the battery only went down by about 1/4.
so if u want the battery to lasts much long, set the screen brightness to 40-45% & dim it after a reasonable amt of time. unless u always use the phone under the sun...that's another story. |
