i think apple is upgrading their FW regarding battery drain. Maybe they will release it in FW 3.1....FW3.0.1 show nothing much in battery improvement....may be a bit kot...still my i3gs can stand one to two days till full drain. but drain faster than my i3g

QUOTE(gyver @ Aug 26 2009, 03:55 PM) With all this discussion on battery drainage, wasn't iphone 3gs was suppose to solve all battery problems? Even the sales tag is "better battery lifetime". No offense, I just think most of you guys didn't disable the push notification. FYI we have....but it drain not as fast as water flow....  ...i think the best way to solve is wait for newer FW.....may be good news regarding battery lifetime

QUOTE(geo-milano @ Aug 26 2009, 07:03 PM) Even someone had said FW3.1 will update about battery, but don't expect too much on it. It might nothing different after upgrade. The battery of i3gs basically is same with i3g. However, due to upgrade hardware on i3gs, and it need more energy to support those new hardware spec, so it is normal battery drain faster than i3g. You can tahan until 2 days, actually not bad already. i disable all the thing regarding notification ,3g/edge, email push and sort of thing regarding battery....including off my wifi when nok using it....thats why my i3gs can stand longer. hehehe
