N70 battey life - how long?

5 replies · 3,473 views · Started 01 July 2006

Guys

I had an N80 (twice) and the battery life was so bad I returned the phone(s) to Orange under the 14 day period and I would like to know the actual battery life on an N70.

How long on average between charges please?

Also, what's the most stable firmware?

Cheers

Andy

My battery life is good, with moderate use I have never had to charge the phone more than twice in one week. Generally 4 days with calls, browsing and game playing.

My N70 will last a couple of days under general use, such as phone calls and playing a few games, if using the tomtom its a day.

it does all depend on how you use it, one thing i do is turn off the bluetooth when not needed this seems to increase battery life quite well.

Either way its definately better than the V3 i used to own.

sadelta99 do you mean the Motorola V3 or the v3 firmware?

I can't complain either of the battery, 3-5 days without recharging
I turn off bluetooth aswell, on switch it on when I want to use it
also my screen brightness is at the lowest and keytone sound is off

With 3G + Bluetooth and moderate use, less than one day!
Without 3G, and withouth Bluetooth, with the same moderate use, 3-5 days.
All new phones are the same. Is better have near a charger. What a pit that is not a 6310i (great device), with is 7-10 days, and with Battery 1500mAh, 15 - 18 days!!! Glory days.
