Like the topic says, I have both the Atrix (which I <3) and the droid bionic (GSM unlocked). I would like to keep both, but I would rather sell one to get something else, so which would you keep and why?
My requirements for these phones are webtop and ICS, neither has the latter just yet...
Bionic vs Atrix = Bionic
if xt875,bionic.

My friends battery on his bionic sucks and he has an extended battery, my Atrix on neutrino lasts longer. For me battery life is important.

I think I am running that Nutrino rom, I'll have to look. I would use the phone more often, but alas it sits in a drawer too much recently, well ever since getting a Galaxy S2 and all, kinda hard to compete there...

hey guys simple question, I flashed eclipse ROM v2.1 and I love it so far except one thing, the battery life sux, I mean when I was stock 2.3.4 rooted I froze a bunch of apps and my battery life was pretty impressive. So I can only relate this to that eclipse is performance based and needs a little more battery? So basically is their a method to getting more battery life or am I stuck.

Have you added any modifications since you flashed Eclipse? Have you added a significant amount of widgets or apps that run in the background? How has your brightness level and usage of device been (more or less than before?)
A majority of the people (myself included) feel that eclipse is great on battery. I use my phone constantly with the brightness on full and the second core script and the battery life is totally fine.

Did you calibrate battery? Also battery life for what, stand-by or usage? Stand-by I can get 2 says easily with just texting and calls. A normal usage, maybe 5 - 6 hours and I can even kill it in less then an hour If need be.

My battery life was a little less with Eclipse than on stock, too. CM7 batter life is even worse but still very acceptable. On stock I would easily get 2 days and some change. With Eclipse I'd get a little over a day, and CM7 a little less. What makes me wonder if being on a better ROM makes us use our phones more because it works so much better vs. stock. I can't stand my phone on stock so I usually don't mess with it.
No my friend everything has been pretty much left alone. I use the performance monitor for shutting down background apps, and have even froze the social media apps(twitter, fb,Skype). Huh

Give the calibration a try and see if there was a mismatch between readings. Maybe something is running harder than usual.

I would be more apt to say the drain was the norm high drain that the first couple days after flashing any ROM sees, yhe "recal" just wipes the stats of the battery doesn't change the amount of power you have or use
from my X2 roaming the north
Yea ur probably right about the high drain after flash because it seems the longer I'm on this ROM the better the battery is performing

I can usually go all day with moderate usage (games/reading on bus, checking internet, etc.) without too much worry about battery life. I heavily rely on Juice Defender and usually turning off wifi unless I need it. I probably should clock it. I'll have to do it once I settle into my new ROM.
very nice

Its hard....but I think you may want to look at this:
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5033&idPhone2=3708
I think you should stick with the atrix...1930 mAh vs 1500 mAh...My sister have a S2 and she have to plug the phone all the time...my atrix last (on CM7) 2 days and some time more...
You have to wait a little longer for the 3.1 kernel to be complete....and then....ICS/JB fully working for the atrix will be release...
If you love battery life, stick with Atrix.

well thats what I'm worried about are we getting a fully working ICS or JB ?? I don't think so to be honest
Why do i get more battery life in all site (phone arena , GSM... ect ) for the s3 mini and its only 1500 mAh ???
change phone. its only a matter of time before your digitizer gives up...
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk 2
S3 mini has updated hardware and should be newer. I'd think about the exchange. It seems like it can last a day on normal use but maybe you're an avid user.

If it is a straight up trade yes. If you don't like the s3 mini you can always sell it and buy a couple atrixes
Has anyone noticed a difference with battery between the Xmas leak and the recent OTA? Seems like the battery life on my device isn't as good. This is after an SBF and cache wipes.
Just curious on everyone else's experience.

well i maybe get a max of about 5 hours on my Razr with the ICS, I cant get the newest update to install on my phone, I've been trying all morning
on ota i had about 2 1/2 days .. thats more than ICS ever had on my phone.
:good:
When I used US Verizon JB, the battery last longer than EU Vodafone's. I would have preferred to use the Vodafone version so I don't have to see the CID error every boot but battery life is more important.
Battery life was awful, phone wouldn't sleep, so I performed factory reset which solved the issue. Now battery life is perhaps even slightly better that it was with ICS, but I lost root.
Worse. MUCH worse.
My wife's fully stock RAZR MAXX ICS used to be around 75% or so after a day of moderate use. After the JB OTA update, she is seeing battery levels around 40% or so, even on days o f light use.
And, we are not alone. I have other friends experiencing the same problem.
Has anyone identified the source of the problem?
It was great in ics but in jb it was improved a lot.

Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Battery life is terrible compared to the Note. I can still get a decent 10-12 hours but I could easily get twice that on the Note. I'd still prefer this phone over anything out right now, though.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I second this. The LG Optimus G Pro and the Droid Maxx are the only phones in the Note 2's battery class. Everything else sucks comparatively. I get good battery life out of my One though. I can easily get thru a whole day without having to charge it. And if I ever do need to charge it it charges pretty quickly.
