My lumia 925's battery life quite bad too. hmm.gif

Full charge in the night, next day unplugged at 7am, the battery drops to almost 50% around noon. rclxub.gif

I've set a few settings such as turning Glance to Peek mode, block all unnessary apps, nfc off, location off, using 3G data sparingly, mostly for light whatsapp usage.

Can recommend me good/compatible power bank for my lumia 925?m icon_question.gif

My L720 is goddamn awesome.
I'll restart the phone before each unplugs to ensure the 100% charged. WP8 battery readings sucks IMO.
From morning 7am, 3G all day, some calls, games, Whatsapp, web browsing.
Turn off unnecessary settings when not in use, WiFi, Bluetooth, Tap+Send, Location, you name'em.
reaches home at 12am, battery level is at 40%. I'm PLEASED.
L720 never dies on me. Ever.

lumia 820, wifi and lte on...surf net for 2-3 hours, whatsapp 1-2 hours, watch youtube for 1 hour, call duration for 30 mins...

you can see the graph....when the line drop slowly, it usually in standby mode but got receive email, whatsapp with reply for just a while so it will not use much battery...

when the line drop tremendously, mean i'm using not stop like surf net, watch youtube, reading rss feed...

This is when I on wifi, data at times, turning it off from time to time when not in use, always 3G, this means that if I 24 hours on wifi, I can only last less than 12 hours.

This is when I never use the wifi or the data, just some game and using app, listening to music on headphone, always 3G.

But I still think that my 720 can do better than this. :/

Anyone uses the integrated Facebook chat within the Messaging? I felt that it drains a good amount of battery. Although it didn't bother me much but I kept feeling I'm on the edge of a dying phone.

With Wifi turned off, I noticed battery life saved a lot. Used a day til midnight, only 11% consumed with some messaging/calling.
