Can anyone do the following :

TEST 1
  • Have one game, music player (on pause) and 5 other apps open in background
  • Set brightness at 45-50%
  • Open BBM
  • Start a count up timer (on PC preferably)
  • Chat with someone and keep the screen on (never lock phone)
  • Check timer as soon as one percentage is discharged

Time : Maximum of 4.5-5 minutes per percentage

On a lighter note, I used to think about this since I got my phone until I turned off the Battery Percentage indicator from showing, and now I don't worry one bit and just enjoy having a battery that lasts longer than 6 hours (thank you iPhone 5 :rolleyes:) Anyone else worried just turn it off, makes everything easier.

Just enjoy your phone and don't keep your eyes glued to the battery percentage all day.

I actually turned off the percentage icon for that reason exactly. I meant this to be a sarcastic thread to lighten up the mood, i'll make it more obvious.
