I didn't notice any change in battery life.
You could check your backlight setting, as the default setting on earlier fw versions was 65% and now it is 90%.

i've not done any tests but my battery life does seem to have decreased - not by much tho but i have noticed it. I thought i was just using it more. |

yeh just realised it was actually the 3G, because i recently had changed my sim from voda to 3network, which only run on 3G, but i changed back to vodafone, 3 sux , but yeh, its was the 3G that was hogging my battery for sum reason :S |

I'm on a non-3G network with GPRS unattached (CS only) and wireless LAN is off. Brightness 65%.. I always close all applications from Task Manager before putting it to back to my pocket.
Battery life really reduced after the latest firmware.. Unplugged the phone at 07:00 AM. Now it's 10:44 AM and battery dropped down to 95%.
What I did was only a 2 minute call..

I think the phone got really faster after the last firmware update, at the cost of battery life.
My P800, after 4 years, drains only 3-4% of the battery at night, while my (4 months old) P1i drains 10%. Daily drainage is 25% minimum.
Same usage, P800 goes 1 week, P1i goes 4 days max after the last firmware. No background applications, no Bluetooth, no 3G.
I'm frustrated.

I've seen the same. Seems like there's some background process that keeps running all the time. I had that on the next to last firmware too - if I had installed something on the mem- card that used a service of some sort in the background. It's definitively the same thing now - I'm guessing that there's some routine that maintains the program list in real time. But, as always - it's impossible to figure out exactly what it is (while SE doesn't think it's a problem, and couldn't care less if it was). |
