How long does your battery last?

Just as a matter of interest, how long does your battery last on average?

I currently have a SE w880i and mine lasts 2-3 days, although i do use it quite heavily normally.

Cheers, Sam

I have an N73 music edition, (bought "brand new" on ebay)

My battery only lasts on average, about 2 days max... (Depending on use, obviously)

But the thing is, when I charge it, it only takes just over an hour to full charge, so could that mean my battery isn't as new?

Usually about 3 days on my N95.
Past 3 days, half a day, seriously, about 12 hours.
Typically, since I just said that I'd never had a problem with Orange, they are now royally p*ssing me off.
I phoned them to say that my battery keeps running flat. It's gone from 72 hours with pretty heavy use to 12 hours with no use at all.

They said that the expected standby time they have for that phone is 14 to 24 hours and they had a mast down so it wasn't considered a fault. I told them that I had full reception in my area, and in areas where I don't have full reception, the battery does not normally run down within 12 hours. I also told them that nokia themselves project 200 hours standby time for this phone in optimal conditions. One operator said that was for unbranded phones, and for Orange phones it was 14 hours. I asked her if a responsible company would install software that would cripple a phone that is supposed to last 200 hours on standby to 14 hours on standby. She didn't reply.

My reckoning is that they have a misprint somewhere, because I find that everyone else with an Orange N95 is getting about the same as I was before. They asked me to try another charger etc. and try the phone in a different postcode, which I will do. The point I was making to them is that if I experience the same problem then they're just going to say, "we only project 14 hours anyway." and I'll be left with a faulty phone.

Really pissed off now, I'm out of the house for over 14 hours when I go to work and I need to be contactable.

Guy in the Orange shop solved the problem, something related to 3g. Back to normal now.
