I just happened to check my stand-by time. I turn the the telephone off at night. I will never play any games during the testing period. Just phone usage. I charged it on Sunday (21 July) night. Now it shows 125h left. 15h X 4=60h passed. I am expecting a day more. What about you? How often do you charge your phone? |

I have a problem with my T68 that everytime I turn off and turn on the phone, it would reduce battery quite a bit ( e.g. battery indicator from 8/10 reduce to 5/10 after turn off then on again), anyone got such problem ??? |

its still the same though...so in fact, its better to leave the phone on all night, instead of powering down in the evening...
I also think SonyEricsson should make a better battery. the standard batt. is the only one out.not possible to buy a better one even as accessory. |

Leaving my T68 on all the time would have the same standby time as if I turn off at night......both give me 5 days standby. It is because if I turn off the phone at night and turn back on next morning, it would reduce battery quite a bit.......If I turn it on all the time then it won't happen .........So 24 hours*5 days(leave it on) would equal to 16 hours *5 days (turn it off at night)..........very strange........anyone got such experience?? I would expect turn it off at night should have more standby time but in fact its the same as if its turn on all the time.........anyone?? |

Here in Turkey we have to turn our telephones off when we use public busses. So even I don't turn my t68i off during the night time I have to turn it off an on at least two times during the day. I hope turning on/off drains batt. life theory is not true! |

I haven't turned my phone off for over 6 weeks now I charge my phone whenever I see the bar less than 1/4th. Sometimes (rarely) I can go up to 6 days without charging, even if I do use the phone constantly.

Well i leave my phone on 24/7 and charge it everyother day. Usually when its about half. Can't usaully last more than 3 days without charge as i talk on the phone so much 
Also now i have a desktop stand it to tempting to stick it on the stand and leave it on charge all day at the office!
I reckon all desktop stand should have a charging switch! it would definately stop over charging the battery! |

if your battery lasts more than 2 or 3 days your definitely not using your phone much.
