Battery life is always a wonderful specification that some of us neglect to research (or care about) when purchasing new electronics. Standby time isn’t really ALL that useful as a metric, as it never fully demonstrates real usage. It is surely important for cellphones -with ultra sparse usage, the longest I could go without recharging was a measly 3 days on the Atrix – so for a tablet which
- doesn’t fit in my pocket and therefore doesn’t experience the heat effect of being there
- doesn’t have a cellular radio communicating with wireless towers
one should probably expect something much, MUCH better.
And indeed it is.
