I had my first big day lined up for my Nokia N95 yesterday. I had a full day out the office and I assumed the Nokia N95 battery would last the whole day, but it died at around 4pm which was very disappointing.
Here’s what I managed to do on a full charge:
- 80 mins usage with the web browser
- 10 mins using gmail java client
- 90 mins doing calls
- listened to 5 voicemails
Not a lot of usage at all (I made sure my Nokia N95 was fully charged before I set out). I’m now starting to understand all the bad press the Nokia N95 battery has had. I think what really killed my Nokia N95 battery was the sustained web use, and also because I was on a train so I’m assuming the phone had to expend more energy maintaining the signal.
I’ve learnt my lesson now as I had a few more calls I needed to make yesterday. So, if I’m out of the office again I’ll remember to take my Nokia N95 charger with me, as despite the poor battery life, I wouldn’t change my Nokia N95 for any other phone.
