iPad mini Insane Battery Life?

[Mr.damien]

I think I'm getting roughly 11 hours usage with brightness around 40-50%. It's pretty great. 15 hours would be even nicer but this will do I'm skeptical of those of you reporting what appears to be 20 hours of usage... if that were the case Apple would have been trumpeting it.

Or not. Especially if the battery is the same for LTE and wifi models. Then they won't speak about better battery life for the wifi one.

It could make people think that they are paying 100$ more for a 5$ LTE chipset (which is the case) and this is not good from a selling POV.

Because logic should be
. Wifi + less powerful battery.
. LTE + more powerful battery as LTE is very consuming.

But I assume that scaling effect on the price is making only one battery type better suited for Apple.

Just my thinking.

Where do people find the time for all of these 9 hour runs. I mean, the iPad is fun and all but no way will I waste 9 hours a day on using one, especially not on a Sunday. Don't you socialize, spend time with your family or do useful things with your spare time?

I like people telling others what to do with their own lives. Especially the one that are asking other people to be sociable.

It always feel that they MUST be sociable during free time or they won't be cool when they explain what they do during the week end.

Finally, people telling what others should do are always those who have sucking lives: because they always manage their lives according to what others people think.

Not to say that if you spent 9h on facebook for iPad, you did sociable stuff

What do you guys make of this?

Well, spending 1Go for Monopoly is very a bad deal.
