Got my phone swapped out the other day and today we started a road trip. My phone sat in the console unused and fully charged. After 10 hours it was dead. No BT or wifi.
Got a tip for us?

You must have a lemon! My battery runs circles around my former iPhones. You should return it then.

I'm getting 36+ hours per charge, with moderately heavy use.
The same usage on my 3G would probably give me 6 hours.
Can also confirm my battery is amazing when compared to my 3G and 2G iPhones. Best battery on a phone I have had!
Usage: 5 hours 34 min (gaming, wifi, brightness 50%)
Standby: 10 hours 13 min
Still have 51% battery left.
Based on that I would get 11 hours of actual usage. Which is insane!
And that's my par over the last week. Around 9-11 "usage" hours. I hardly put my phone down since I bought it. It's almost replaced my laptop ha ha

As stated in the MANY threads on this issue: if you battery life is bad, then your phone is bad. Fight for a replacement!
