I use it quite heavily, and it lasts much, much longer than any nokia phone i owned, even when using the camera extensively, surprisingly. I had the Nokia n90 as well, and its battery life was barely half of the k750. Vince D above might want to reduce the backlight to 50%, which is still perfectly usable, to save some power. The k750 can easily last a week in offline mode, btw.<br><br>And i used to think its because i nearly fully discharge the battery before charging. I am aware li-ions dont have the memory effect, but old habits die hard.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[shadekh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 13th 2006 11:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The be-all, end-all battery life shootout]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/08/12/the-be-all-end-all-battery-life-shootout/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/08/12/the-be-all-end-all-battery-life-shootout/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow, so the lithium-polymer batteries do have a noticable effect on battery life... quite impressive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Donald]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2006 12:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The be-all, end-all battery life shootout]]></title><link>http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/08/12/the-be-all-end-all-battery-life-shootout/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/08/12/the-be-all-end-all-battery-life-shootout/</guid><description><![CDATA[This test methodology is flawed.  I used to use a music track for testing battery talk times as well, until I realize that many modern handsets use some sort of noise reduction system that filters out music and keeps it from being transmitted - saving battery power.<br><br>In order to bypass this, you need to play a track of somebody actually talking - which is what we do now.<br><br>The change generally has one of two effects.  Battery life is either reduced by a third or so, for those using noise-reduction, or it stays the same, for handsets that don't support any sort of noise reduction.<br><br>But with that said, the SE handsets still seem to be the best performers by far.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michael Oryl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 14th 2006 7:57AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
