mine can last about 3 days..

The battery life pretty much depends on your usage too. Avoid wasting battery capacity unnecessarily like leaving the WiFi and EDGE on when not in use. Of course, there's brightness and the EQ settings too.

i plan to use in car thru FM transmitter too. But,i will make the battery drain out even more quickly ..that's not a good practice rite?

there are proper FM transmitters for iPod/iPhone that will also charge the unit when plugged in. Try those that gets the audio signal from the Dock port instead of the earphone jack.

Earphone jack transmitter cheap mar. Not every1 rich like Mr. Foo ler. Like the 1 I'm using now, oni cost rm19 at the last PC Fair. Those proper dock transmitters cost millions. Besides, I use it on my trips to Penang n haf no probs with batt life either on the transmitter or iPhone coz they both are like teh energizer bunny.

ya ya ya .. ianho.
I boh lui buy an expensive special dock for iphone too

I can't understand if you guys have to money to buy an iphone or ipod touch. why take the risk of buying cheap charger?
Apple is very much against it and if it spoiled and your warranty will be void.

As far as I am aware, cheap things are usually rejects from the production. There are not up to the QC. So I will not
take such a risk.

Its like, driving a BENz or BMW but not willing to pay for parking at the car park. End up have to pay for summon. This is something that I cannot figure out.

Can we have a consensus?

When everyone first bought their iphone, how long did it last ?

Secondly, does the extra apps drain the battery faster?

Im shocked some can last more than 1 day.. Mine i just got and it wont even last 24hrs. And this on minimal usage cuz i was curious since it died very fast the first time so i tested it by using it very little..

Not rumours, is a fact.

Yeap. Means try to switch off SSH as far as possible when not in use, or you'll have more battery down the drain...

Guys, so u mean there is no standby mode for iphone?
Let say just some minimum applications and some song playing for 1 hour and 80% backlight is it able to last for few days?

Or iphone is practically power monster?

I have sold all my imported iphones and getting one early next week. I guess I will find out soon how long the battery will last.

haha when u getting new iphone sonnecttech-asia?

got bulk? hehe

if normal usage can last for 3 days it should be okie

Not interested to do Iphone. But we can do x-sim. I shd have a batch of x-sim coming after new year. We shd have the x-sim for europe iphone and US iphone, they are differnet. so please specify which iphone is yours.

What are the differences between these two model?

sim solution for US version is programmed to emulate ICCID code of AT&T operator, while for UK version it is to emulate O2 operator. So iPhone that's inserted with SIM solution with ICCID of AT&T will assume that it is inserted with valid AT&T simcard, and vice versa.

yeap. thanks laskarCinta

Wonder how the battery topic drifted off to X-SIMs... Battery life on 1.1.3 is simply OWNING for me now!!! Back then with 1.1.1, I had a hunch that my battery lifespan was already nearing it's end with the declining usage time per charge cycle. And now it's back to NORMAL!!!

I have just got my iphone. Will jailbreak it tonight to see the battery life span for 1.1.1. use it for a 1 week, then upgrade and see the different. keep you posted later.

Sure, mate. You can take my word for it. The only things that seem to decline over each firmware release is the stability with the 3rd party apps. But we all know that they weren't meant to work in the first place, so that's understandable..
