Yup, and Nexus 7 is the 1st tab justified my requirement. All the while previous tab just too lagging for me.

Is anyone else experiencing extreme battery drain? It finished charging around midnight and when I woke up around 9 the battery left 75% with no apps running, no wifi, no bluetooth etc. The only thing running was the alarm. So i checked my battery status, the screen is taking up 40% and cell standby also 40%. I already followed all the tips to save battery for the display but its still the same.

Also for cell standby, I don;t get why it is so high. So i googled it, apparently there's a bug? Which can be fixed if u root your device. But I know nuts (total tech noob here) to rooting and I dont want to void the warranty.

I thought of sending it back to a samsung centre but there are problems with my e warranty registration which i have emailed samsung and they havent replied.

if go to sleep with 99% battery and wake up 8 hours later, there will be only 90% left.
I do exactly like what you do, except i set mine to GSM instead of WCDMA.

I'm guessing it's pretty normal.

I'm guessing it's not normal since he said 12am - 9am it's 25% drain....... yours is similar to mine at about 10% drain overnight smile.gif

but he didn't specify if he's on GSM or WCDMA?

In my experience, my battery drains faster when using WCDMA compared to GSM.

It was on GSM. I set it to that on the first day I got it. Is there a possibility because my battery is still new and the battery hasn't kick started yet?

did u put your phone under the pillow when you sleep?
or place somewhere with low signal?

coz phone will try to search for stronger signals and will consume ur battery in the process..
happens to me all the time when i'm in no signal zones during my work

So if it's on WCDMA, 25% drain is normal? luckily mine is always hovering around the 10% mark.

yes, if you set svoice to wake up on command.

Do you have alot of home screen/widget ?
