Is it just me or does this phone have short battery life? It last about 30 hrs without active use! No mp3 or anything just calling and SMSing. Is this normal? |

Do you have 3G switched on or off? 3G uses more battery power much more quickly. Turn it off if so. Are you playing alot of music also or browsing the net alot?

Ah thats probably it then. Cos 3G is faster and more powerful it kills batteries faster. Also when your out and about even if your phone is in standby in your pocket the phone will constantly skip between GSM and 3G coverage which also uses more power. Your phone is constantly searching for a signal which also uses power so keep 3G off if you dont need it  I hope the battery is ok cos I won one of these phones recently its coming next week. Good luck.

The 3G thing helped but the battery doesn't even last for a day and a half! 
Don't know what to do... |
