Damn. This guy was able to get 7 days of battery life. Catch is is didn't really use it during that time.

Impressive nonetheless.

I also like yesterday how there finally was an update to Skype for video calls on SGII

IMHO 4.5" is just too large. Plus the resolution will start to get a little grainy at that size.

found this interesting as the stats are directly related to the SGSI and the SGSII for increased market share....

poor Nokia

the 4.3" is perfect size anything bigger it is just to much...the SGSII has the best size for optimal use

Curious to get some reviews, I'm tempted to get one

see..this is the problem..the guy claims his one week glory..but he rarely uses it..

I claimed 36hrs on my NexusOne and I used it like I normally would

Gh0strider scored even higher on Android Battery test at 39hrs

Now i'm sure that kernel can push to that 30-40hr limit with regular use...
which is.. phone/txt/whatsapp/twitter/facebook/foursquare/RSS feeder for news

I pushed my NexusS to 29hrs... In terms of SGS2? I will find out when I get mine near the end of the month. hopefully, there will also be an HTC EVO3D for me to compare and play around with

36 hours is pretty damn good. The most I can get outta my SGS2 is around 30hours and that's a feat considering Gingerbread ROMs use more battery.
