QUOTE(adrive @ Mar 12 2012, 09:02 PM) Is the battery really much better? Or almost the same? What about compared to 9810? Well, my usage pattern has not changed, other than the fact that I ran os7.1 on my 9810 and am also running os7.1 on my 9790. Battery life for me on the 9790 has been the best among the three models. I don't have to worry at all about running out of juice from 7am to 11pm. In fact my 9790 still has 40% batt left now. Don't even need to consider the sun global 1850mah batt

I only use 2g-only mode when I am going to be out of the office for the whole day (ie visiting customer). I push 3 gmail accounts (email, calendar, contacts synced), I use facebook, twitter, foursquare, whatsapp and gtalk. I don't install many apps or any games. My BB is only for communication and social networking. I always enable the 'battery saving mode' on my phone (new feature in os7.1).

But I always turn 3g on to push it to the limit. But I'm also curious since u used 9900, 9810 and 9790...how would u rate 9810's batt life compared to 9900 and 9790?

I don't need 3G when I am out of the office for the whole day because I'd have no time for web browsing or other activities that require higher network speeds. Plus I tend to receive and make more calls than I usually do, so I play safe on battery usage  Battery-life wise, based on my experience, 9900 is the worst, followed by the 9810 then the 9790.

I'm using the original bb hard cover and silicone cover by American icon. Works well. U can buy them from LY plaza.
Suggest to save some money and get a cover to "cover" the stain.
