I recently got a Samsung Moment with Android and to say the least I was utterly disatisfied. The battery life was severly poor, I had to carry my charger with me everywhere. Its hard to complain since this phone has 4 seperate radios in it - wifi, bluetooth, GPS and cell of course - so its like running 4 phones off one battery, what more could I expect of it - well, at least to be useable as a "cordless" telephone!
Running the GPS would take the battery from full to dead in 30 minutes or less.
Roaming the web - dont do that for more than hour - thats right dead!
Phone calls - well it had about 1 hour talk time, standby was about 10 hours if you never touched it.
I went to the Sprint service center to get the much awaited new firmware - marked as M900.8.0s.CL14 - to my amazement its a whole new phone. I can now browse the web over 3G or Wifi for 2-3 hours and even make phone calls. I placed about 30 calls the other day, some of them quite lengthy and the phone got all the way to 6pm without popping up the "eminant disaster if I dont plug in fast warning".
this is cool and the color combination is great that attracts me to visit this site again :) and by the way the information is also interesting ..keep it up
