Well... Hard to answer since none of us have had it a week yet. Well none of the commercial units anyway (should be same hardware tho). But using it in PDA mode does seems to suck batteries. Should be enough for an active day in the battery tho. But if it's idle it should be able to last a couple of days on a charge. |

It shuld be if you keep it in phone mode. But the large display eats a lot of power if you use it a lot. Well. Any way you keep the display in use and lit would eat a lot of power. So perhaps it's the same as 13 hours of PDA usage... As I said. Too early to say

it depends on how much you use the PDA functions and camera and so on! i have used mine 3 days without, and still have över 60 % battery left, but i have not plaid as much with it as i think that is "normal" for the p800-user on this forum!

Well. Also note that my results will be influenced by the fact that I use bluetooth a lot. And have it on all the time. |

Very nice phone with a great standby time.
had 7650 before and it held for about 1,5day if I used it.
Now I´ve almost had my P800 for 2 weeks (  Pre-commercial product  ) and the standby time on it is really good. BUt if you listen to Mp3 for about 1 hour a day I can have it for about 3-4 days without charging.
thanks

I have had a P800 for a few weeks and I would say it's battery performance isn't as good as the T68, probably a 25% decrease in time which is still very good to my opinion. |

Thanks for the answers.
One more queation, to P800 owners agian,
Do you guys know any bugs from P800 as T68m (without MMS). So I don't need to be worried about it.
If not, I Think I will get onw before I travel to China plus 128 Meg memory Stick, then I can take a lot of Picture .
I did read it's Flight Mode on P800, so u can still use the phone, but u can't call with it. .
Damn Nice Phone..

ON the battery performance:
1) Diasble screensaver
2) Set power save to 3min (or equal)
@Tiran Kenja
Bluetooth does consume some mA, use ON instead of DISCOVERABLE. |

Yuo CAN´T use MemoryStick! P800 use MemoryStick DUO!
And at the moment, the biggest MemoryStick DUO to buy now is 16 Meg |
