Hi, I'm from overseas and I really like the droid DNA but I'm skeptical about their battery life, I mean seriously , 1080p screen with 2000mah battery? Currently I'm using evolte while this is a great phone , 1 thing that bothers me is that this phone isn't gsm capable, I preffer to have a cdma+gsm on my phone so that I don't need to carry extra phones when I'm overseas, but like I said I'm skeptical about droid DNA battery, so anyone here ever try that? I want the battery life comparisons between the two.
Thx.

If battery life and gsm support is important to you, why not.just get motorolla droid razr maxx he? It is sim unlocked and os updates is extremely.quick now that google.has bought them.
1080p with quad core cpu on the DNA would.eat.the battery life like an appetizer.

You think it's comparable to the Evo LTE? I would assume it's much worse, as the LTE has a larger battery and doesn't have that screen size or quality.

Well if it has the name "Evo" anywhere near it I ain't paying for it.
But then again I said that about the 3D and even this phone >.<
The s4pro chipset is more efficient then the s4 chipset. Just like how the s4 chipset is more efficient then the s3 chipset.
The OG evo uses more power and only one core(sloowww),the evo lte uses less power with more cores and a higher clock speed, I would assume the quad core chipset s4pro which is also 28-nm would have even better battery life because of the efficiency of multiple cores turning on only when needed.
However, the adreno 320 + a 440+ppi screen will take a toll on the battery, so playing HD games or using the camera would surely use a bit of power but not relative to the OG evo battery drain

PROOF?
S4 and S4 PRO uses the same krait cpu cores, both are fabricated at the same node(28 mm).
S4 pro is NOT more efficient but rather more powerful(2 cores vs 4 cores; adreno 225 vs adreno 320).
It should infact consume considerably more power especially if the apps you're running is multi threaded optimzed.

Whenever we talk about extra processing power or graphics resolution we have to flip the coin over and talk about the implications they have on battery life. One would think that, generally speaking, the more powerful the CPU/GPU, the more power it consumes. Too bad you’re wrong.
As processor technology advances a few interesting things happen. Circuit paths get smaller so power requirements drop. Less heat is produced so there’s less resistance which also contributes to a reduction in power demands.
As graphics processors get better they can take more load off the CPU which can not only make things look a whole lot nicer, it can also help reduce power consumption as well. It sounds crazy, I know.
I don’t think we’ll see batteries get any smaller (in capacity) any time soon, but looking at how much extra power is harnessed inside the the processors, the battery required to power them is a lot smaller than you might have imagined.
http://pocketnow.com/2012/10/26/snapdragon-s4-pro
Just a source,I am not looking for an argument as I did not create the s4pro,I have no say of how well it works as they intended.
My guess is that it has better battery life when using not so demanding apps ,gaming on the other hand probably uses more battery life but at a much better performance factor

How about you stop posting misinformation.
You clearly do not understand what you're talking about as all you did was copy paste.
As a said, Qualcomm S4 and Qualcomm S4 pro both use the same cpu architecture while the latter has more cores.
Both are also using the same node(28nm), so the stuff you posted about smaller circuitry as a reason it is more efficient then S4 doesn't make sense.
well obviously one says pro and one doesnt .....obviously the pro one is better becuase it says pro.
LoL
Well let's try it this way,the droid DNA has better battery life then the EVO 4g LTE even though it has to render more pixels,power a bigger screen & 4 cores instead of 2.
I do not know if the s4pro/prime is more efficient then the s4. And if I am wrong then I'm wrong and completely sorry if I came off hard on anyone. But I do know the droid DNA has stupendous battery life for its battery size.

Supposedly the s-lcd3 is more power efficient. That's the only possible reason the phone could have comparable battery life.

The problem is the fact the htc sense is one resource hogging *****.
You know, if both cores ran at once your phone would drain like there was a hole in the battery.
The second core kicks in only when it's needed, being that, there really isn't much of a need doing basic tasks.
Also, I haven't really noticed any choppyness in my phone whatsoever.
I run both cores and battery drain is no prob if set up right. Check other posts on topic and most are positive. My experience has been awesome

One of the reasons that the evo is so great is due to its processor. The second core runs only when it needs to, and/or runs at half the speed of the first until you need more power. This is done to conserve power and heat like others have mentioned. This feature isn't a bane but a boon for the device. Other devices don't have this method of processing (like the photon 4g). The photon 4g has two active cores all the time but during benchmarks it only out preforms the evo on certain marks, where the photon was designed to excel, like video viewing

It would be helpful if you elaborate your Note's set-up. Such as like what ROM is being used, brightness level, LTE/no LTE, etc...

There are only a few reasons why you see your battery life as terrible.
1) You are coming from an iPhone. But now you're using a tool of a phone, not a toy, so your battery life will be lower.
2) You are coming from the Droid RAZR MAXX, which is the only android with a bigger battery.
3) You have a rogue app that you didn't use before that is draining your battery life.
4) You are using excessive amounts of LTE data, and you came from a phone without LTE.
If those apply to you, there's your answer. If they don't, you may just have a bad device or battery.
You really need to be more specific when stating something as subjective as battery life is terrible. May I suggest you post screenshots of your battery stats so that you can give some insight to why your battery life is terrible. Coming on these forums and ranting without evidence won't get you very far.

Pretty much every device is unique, even though they are produced and assembled in identical fashion. It's possible for a device to have faulty software or internal hardware from the factory that could drain battery, and it's also possible for it to be shipped with a faulty battery. It's not a common issue, but also not unheard of. If nothing in his usage of the device is out of the ordinary, then it's possible he received a faulty device or battery, and should exchange it.

Compared to what???
If you are trying to compare your Note to Apple itoy that is like trying to compare pink tricycle with pink tassels to a Corvette ZR1. No comparison at all, definitely more than apples and oranges. Having owed, well still own till I sell it, Dell Streak only other 5 inch screen out there. Agree it is still not apples to apples (or vette to vette), but Shelby Mustang to ZR1 and can say the battery performance is about the same. I upgraded my Steak to a 2400 mAh battery and had all services on and OC'ed to 1.9 ghz, yes I know single core, standard definition resolution, etc, but as close as you can get in 5 inch screen world. So far the 2500 mAh and stock ROM, with everything on, battery time is relatively the same. Will say only phone that might compare is Samsung Skyrocket HD that is set to come out this month(?), inside they are close to the same, but the screen is 4.6 inch super Amole plus.
Can anyone help me out? This is my battery on battery monitor widget. It says 1500 mah. I've only had my phone off the charger for 3 hours and I'm on 33 percent and watching it drop fast.

Battery Monitor Widget guesses at the capacity (or hard codes it). Go into the apps settings and you can tell it the battery capacity.
Also, make sure your using decent batteries. The two for $15 deals on ebay are not direct replacements. Stick with oem or brand names llike Anker.

Is HTC still planning on updating this thing to ICS or have they just decided to scrap it? Has there been any official word from them regarding the Tbolt's fate? Some guy at Radioshack told me HTC has officially cancelled the ICS update, but I haven't seen or heard any other source so far that mirrors his assertion.
Have any of you guys read anything regarding whether or not ICS is still a go for us Tbolt owners?

I'll put it this way just give up hoping and you will feel better in about a week. Then when its cancelled officially you're not bummed. Then if by an act of god its released. you can be pleased by the news. We are going on what 5 months from the original release date?

I agree with everything that said here HTC says they will be coming out with another ICS update for all phones with greater than 512 MB of memory this would have 768. But the normal next up is one gig of memory the best thing to do is go back to gingerbread under volt your CPU and get a resound battery. between under voting and the Rezound battery I have passed up upgrades for the last six months because my phone not only last longer than when I got it but faster.
Even if this phone does get ics the battery will be cut in half. Ics it's a great selling point when you want to Craig's list it but the power drain will bee twice what it was on gingerbread
The power drain on ICS won't be twice as fast. What even makes you think that? In all reality it should be twice as good since ICS handles resources better and uses hardware rendering for the ui freeing up CPU cycles.

Galaxy nexus is a prime example. Look at all the newer ics phones out there. Their battery like is like double ours. Its proven ics doesn't improve battery life. The gnex is a prime example as its battery size is somewhere close to ours. Even running twisted ics rom battery life is no better than a gb aosp rom. So I think you are in for a rude awakening when and if we get ics. I never heard Google say battery life with ics was suppose to be better. That's just what board member started. We all know the main power drain on phones are the screens. How can an os upgrade improve an old screen in being more efficient? In the end battery life on the bolt will either be the same or worse. Don't even think our little weak battery is going to have the same performances as the larger extended battery's.

The galaxy nexus also has a faster processor than this phone and sports a super amoled screen. Nexus phones are like muscle cars, they're fast as hell but man does the mpg suck.
I can verify that ICS won't make the battery life worse. I had my Nexus S 4G when ICS released and going from Gingerbread 2.3.7 to ICS 4.0 made a huge difference in battery life. I suddenly didn't have to carry my charger with me to college.

Ive never heard anyone say dual core saves battery. The lte chip in the phone is what sucks the battery most of the time.

Dude, you cant really compare any blackberry to an android device. BlackBerry isn't even close to the power that android has.

Lol. This is exactly how I would describe my relationship with my phones, both current and previous. The GS2 had abysmal battery life. I'd always get nervous if I got under 50% and knew I wouldn't be near a charger for a few hours. The iPhone 3GS I had before that wasn't any better.
The OG has been great now that I've got it set up properly. No worries now.

IPhone 4S was similar, but the G2X and especially the OG Evo 4G were way worse.

Coming from an HTC Inspire I still have a habit of putting my phone on the charger at 30% battery life on that phone was horrible for me.

Battery life has been about the same since I started using android phones. I can't really decide which of those I have owned was noticeably worse than my OG. Nothing really stands out.
Had the HTC vivid for a little while in between my atrix and LGOG and by far worst battery ever. Carried a spare on me at all time. Glad those days are over.

My Atrix 4G had pretty scrappy battery life. Loving the battery life on the LGOG. Although it pales in comparison to the Atrix HD with the EB40 battery mod that I used to have.

My battery life has been solid with this phone actually. I'm currently running GinSix 1.5 with sk8's kernel with the Conservative governor.

Mine too, has green eyes, glossy hair .....
If you think the G2 battery life is great the Flex is excellent. Go LG!

Yes, LG G2 battery is great, we all know that. It is also 3100mAh, so the comparison to the iPhone 5 (1440mAh) is apples to oranges seeing as it is more than twice as big.
There is really no point to this thread really.

That's true but from the customer point of view, they don't care what inside, they don't care what tech of the battery pack is being used, they don't care it's 1mAh or 100000mAh. What people care is how long it would last, of course, it has to be packed in the slim, thin body.
I got 48 hours battery life with 8.5 hours screen time ? g2 is the best

The battery could be 10 times as big, but if one of them can last a full day and the other only half a day, that's what's important. G2 also has bigger screen and faster processor, so it needs a bigger battery..
But I agree, there is no point to this thread. It's the same as the other 1/2 dozen talking about how great the battery life is.

Actually the A7 CPU (iPhone 5S) is faster than the Snapdragon 800. But that doesn't really matter, the screen is what uses most of the power.
Oh my god. That discussion once again. A dual core 1.3 GHz processor is not FASTER than a 2.3 GHz snapdragon 800. It's the optimisation between hardware and software that makes it appear faster - the SoC in itself is NOT faster.

Very true.
I hear the first 64bit Snapdragon will be the 410 (midrange), guessing Android will also be going that direction soon.
They haven't announced the 64 replacement for S800/805
