is it just me or is the battery rubbish?

i got 1.5 days out of mine before the phone just turned itself off. that was with a few photos and a few calls and a few texts, nothing too heavy though.

is this the norm??

mine is still over half, having received it yesterday and charging it for only an hour. i've taken 3g access off though, as that wastes more battery!

I use mine all the time. The battery lasts quite well for me. I was listening to mp3s for 6 hours yesterday with about 30 mins calls and 1 hour of wap and only used about half the battery.

go into your settings on the handset...then go to connectivity, aand scroll down to mobile networks...then go down to mobile networks and select gsm/3g networks, and click on gsm only.
