some games do consume more battery than the others.

S3 is good enough with a 2100mAh battery. the battery life very much depending on your usage pattern and the apps that u install.

S III is the best battery I use in all Android phone, at least it is far far better than S II.
*
yes, definitely.. my gf using s2, and she envy a lot of my battery life.

we went out with my battery 50%, hers 70%.. we use almost the same pattern i.e. whatsapp, taking photos.

we came back with my battery 45% and hers 30%.

and yet everyday i still see ppl complaining about how bad is the battery life of S3. just be thankful it is not as crappy as One X and it is replaceable. Those who claimed draining battery better check your apps and signal strength.

without mobile data and wifi on most of the time, i can use full day with almost 4~5 hours on screen time which includes 2 hours gaming
with data on and wifi on when at home, i can use until night with 3hours+ to 4 hours on screen time

QUOTE(SteadyPana @ Jul 4 2012, 02:57 PM)
One popular issue regarding WIFI on S3. The most common "Fix" right now is something that was learned from XDA developers:

1. Go to your phone dialer
2. Dial *#0011#
3. When you see the "ServiceMode" screen, press the left menu button
4. Select "WiFi"
5. See that "Wifi Power Save Mode" button that is "ON" - well turn it "OFF"
6. Exit this menu, turn off your Wifi and turn it back on. If you already entered all your wifi credentials, forget your network info (remove it) and re-enter it again."
*
this fix is long discussed long time ago in v3 or v4 if not mistaken.. sweat.gif

but my phone don't have any wifi issue. rolleyes.gif

does ur video preview thumbnails animated? do they play the preview of the movie on ur gallery? mine doesnt seem to move at all
*
if u just added yr video, let the phone process and convert the thumbnail. it will take some time cz yr phone will convert the video into smaller reso and lower frame rate videos.

QUOTE(tommyfai @ Jul 4 2012, 04:18 PM)
haha thats funny though.. but to be honest, the only thing is my battery life. normal use but can only last half day.. plagued by the cell standby thingy.. hope samsung can fix it though..
*
the cell standby thingy wont affect anything.. it is just a bug showing wrong value.. actual battery consumption still the same. i really suggest u to check on any rogue app installed that is draining battery. it wont show in yr battery settings thou.

ya man.. i was thinking... since s3 was at 2100 mah , it should perform better than iphone. (i was iphone user previous) . but u think i should reformat it and do it again ? but i just download those standard apps from play store.. mine is everything stock..

QUOTE(YouDontKnowMyName @ Jul 4 2012, 04:37 PM)
my battery life is exactly like yours.
During weekdays i don't play games, I don't use mobile data, 95% of the time i use it only for SMS-ing.
But yet my battery can't even last through a day (i have all unnecessary settings off)  hmm.gif
I know it's an app that's sucking up all my battery because i left it on airplane mode one night, but yet i woke up after 8 hours with 8% battery gone  hmm.gif
mine's everything stock too
*
both of u try install juice defender and see whether is it the cell radio sucking battery for data.. but if the juice defender affects yr normal sync for apps then just uninstall it or change the settings.

weakness of S3 is some issue with QC. otherwise, the phone is damn good.

other issue are software related that can be fixed via updates.

blank ink r small issue.. ppl can't hear my voice really huge issue.. not sure is telco o phone problem.. sumtimes signal full also like this.. pekcek..
*
it's very easy to troubleshoot actually.

if u suspect sim problem, try a different sim card, pinjam from other ppl and also slot yr sim to other ppl's phone or get a new sim card
if u suspect telco, then try sim with different telco
if u suspect phone, then try use the mic and see any breaking sound.

if sim and telco also no problem, then send yr phone to SC let them check. I believe it is a more effective way than u come to forum everyday to complain about your phone.

it seems like yr phone has many problem. everyday i also see u complain this complain that.
