E70 battery

2 replies · 3,063 views · Started 14 September 2006

I own a n80 which made quite happy for the summer but now back to work i understand all the complaints about its limited battery.

I had a 6680 for about 1 year and battery used to last a couple of days with the following usage

about 1 - 1&1/2 hr of tomtom driving per day
about 1 - 1&1/2 hr talking per day
BT always on

now with the n80, with the same talking time and no tomtom it goes for one day and I have to recharge every nite

does anybody know if the e70 is any better as supposed to be a top of the range business smart phone

thanks

I think that today S60v3 phones, almost all have better battery then N80. So E70, yes, is better. But I think that the best battery on an S60v3 phone today, is 3250 and N73.

The E70 is a lot better than the N80 but still worse than the 6630 and 6680. Must be the Wi-Fi, larger screen, etc. Can't get something for nothing, etc 8-)

Used as you describe, the E70 would last the day with a little to spare.
