Anyone else finding that after the v21 upgrade their battery indicator isn't really working? Mine will say i have a full charge for ages, then suddenly drop to nothing in the space of half an hour!!!!! Anyone else got this?

Yep, same problem and it does seem a lot worse in this version.

Yes, I have noticed this too. Gets to 3 or 4 bars, then all of a sudden, low battery beeps a couple of times then it switches off.
Not overly happy, but the extended battery life makes up for it overall.
I notice this but not on N95 on my N95 8GB i had 4 or 5 bars then opend my browser and started to read a blog and then battery started beeping 30 sec after and was empty when i looked again
No noticable difference herer, apart from the battery performance actually improving.

I've experience it with v21 also. Tried playing music for around 10 minutes with 6 bars, then went idle for an hour. When I've tried to send message, I got a battery warning that it is alread low. I've checked the display and what was left is 1 bar.
Same behavior here.
The battery icon shows "Full" for two days and then goes down to one bar in less than a couple of hours.
same thing here. Battery lasted about 3 days ... full bars - was really happy. Until it dropped to 3 and started making noises that battery is nearly dead. All within the space of 30 mins
I've got this problem too. Never had it on 11, 12 or 20 but now I'm getting it on 21.
Battery level will sit at full for nearly 2 days, then once it drops one bar, it will drop like a stone and dies within the hour pretty much.
OK, battery life has improved, but I wish I knew how much power it had left before I left the house in the morning!
How can you talk days when battery only lasts for a day maximum.
Or got ur phones on standby only? count night, or just morning til evening then shut it off?
