I'm going for a phone upgrade from a Nokia 5233 to a droid. I've shortlisted the Xperia U, and Xperia Sola.
Actually, i struggle a bit with the battery life of my 5233(1320 mAh). Its pathetic actually. It barely stands a day.
According to gsmarena, both phones gots the same rated battery as my 5233. Now, that's wierd! Is Novathor that energy effecient? And even, the Xperia P got the same battery
I'm a moderate user, which includes browsing, some music, and messaging. Barely calls.
Can any Sola, or U user comment below? And please do help me choose my phone among these
The battery of xperia sola can last for a day and a half if you use not so much, but if you use more I think it will last for a day or less. But I think a day use is ok for a smartphone. And about other things of sola, just one word: perfect!!!!
I am also a moderate user like you, I love listening to music and browse internet. I listen to music about 2/3 hours a day, with internet browsing more than 4 hours (I am always online). + messaging and few phone calls. I can easily get through a day without any difficulty with my Xperia U.
Xperia U and sola are basically almost the same, they have same chipset, same amount of ram, same battery capacity.
Well, if storage is not an issue for you than you can get Xperia U for less, and you get front-facing camera which sola does not have.
If you really need larger storage then you should go for sola, but you will not have FF camera and irreplaceable battery.
Hope it helps you to decide which phone to buy

Thanks mates
Well, I'd bought an Xperia U, and I'm happy with it
I get about 13 hrs of battery backup..

I'd thought I would share my battery results on Xperia u. I'm really happy with it. This is on stock Rom not rooted with moderate usage.

Usually 2-3 days at my XPERIA U. I'm using WiFi and texting very often.

Hello, I'm thinking to buy the Neo as my next phone.
Currently I have a X10 and my battery life is decent, like 16h per day and I would like to know about the batt life on the neo to make a comparision
thanks
i had the x10 for a while and with normal use the neo (my current device) lasts alot longer. i would say i use my phone heavy with alot of wifi and 1,7Ghz and it lasts almost 1,5 days.
btw. the neo looks and feels great

Hello,
In normal use my neo has a 2/2.5 days battery life
That's a good phone !
For normal use with wifi on: 2 days without wifi: 3 days
Playing,wifi,bluetooth,gps: half to 1 day
I've just got a Neo to replace my X10 and it's great - I love it. Using it quite a lot at the moment as I get used to it and the battery hit 10% last night after 15.5 hours. Pretty good I reckon!
Battery = Nice!

Takes a few days of use and several charges to settle down, but no complaints here. Most of that is the battery "conditioning" itself and also Android OS calibrating the battery stats.
With WiFi and auto sync on all the time,display brightness to 100% and a lot of fiddling with the phone(calls,gaming,internet,photos,videos,e-books,music etc) it lasts for about 12 hours with a remaining of about 10-12%. Which I consider to be pretty decent
Had mini pro fro half a year and battery was dead in 6 hours ,,,,,
Am now verry happy with neo ,
Sent from my MT15i using xda premium
Had my neo for about a month~ or so now and the battery lasts me over a day easy with a decent amount of use. It's definately worth getting in terms of battery life, compared to my old phone (google nexus s)
Battery like on x10 is pathetic compared to Neo my friend
I moved from x10 on Friday and haven't looked back
This is my phone since 6am roughly, after heavy use with brightness toggled between full and a quarter

Hi all
I've searched and searched not just this site but the web for an answer but I cant seem to find one with direct user input, so if you could, I would appreciate yours.
I went from an X10 mini pro which had below average battery life (just about managed a day with everything turned off), to a blackberry curve which is shocking. A couple of days a week at university are 18+ hours and it wont get me through 12 of those some days.
I liked my mini pro but it did frustrate me because it was quite so tiny but the Xperia mini looks to be an improvement and if I trade in my blackberry I can get it for virtually free. Obviously I'm going to go and try out the phone for size properly before I buy.
Its between the Xperia mini and the Motorola Defy+, I understand all mentioned are smart phones and so battery life will never be amazing, but with unreliable trains and not being able to ring home because my phone has died yet again isn't really an option.
Is it worth me trading in the Blackberry for the Xperia mini or not?
I went from a x10 mini to a xperia active (which is just a waterproof xperia mini) and i have definately an easier time now getting through the day. I would guess i have about 30% more battery-life now.
I cycle to work (2 x 45 minutes) with bluetooth, gps, data (internet-radio) and screen on.
The x10 mini did it barely but i could not use the phone at work. The xperia active does the same + i can use the phone at work and still have 10-20% left when i get home.
As always your mileage may vare. IMO data sucks most, followed by Display.
worth, xperia mini is more powerful than bb curve of course. I can satisfy with battery life with this much power
Thank you! Just the replies I was looking for! I'll miss the email experience but I'd rather have a phone I can still get my emails on rather than a dead one.
I could well end up with an Xperia mini tomorrow!
I would not buy a mini for its battery,
it hardly lasts me a day with fairly light usage.
I have a choice between xperia P and galaxy s advance (I bought galaxy s advance already today but when i went on internet i saw xperia P with all its goodness of high resolution etc) but then i saw the size of battery (1300 mAh vs 1500 mAh) and now i'm asking you guys who're already using xperia P, whether the batter life is satisfactory or not? because i have desire hd as well (1250 mAh) which is a single core processor and the battery isn't that sufficient especially with official rom. Since xperia P is a dual core, is 1300 mAh sufficient?
Hey, Am also using Galaxy S Advance and my cellphone is in Complete warranty but now am looking for xperia p. My Samsung Galaxy Advance drop signal both wifi and network. I like xperia p,and the battery is not so good but it is also not too much bad.It depends upon usage.

Its been only 2 days since i bought the Xperia P . So , a battery shows its true capacity only after a couple of charges . Will see how it performs.
The phone in itself is gorgeous. The touch buttons are btter than those of Galaxy note atleast and phone can be easily used with one hand also.
Button placement is not extreme bottom as in all Samsung android phones !!
From my experience the SGS+ has a really, really crappy battery. Can't compare since I don't have the P but I'm pretty sure it'll be better.
If you are okay with 13 GB with no memory expansion slot (but USB OTG) and non replaceable battery, then you can safely go for it, as the battery is not that bad when compared to 1500 mA.. It is a bit more efficient, plus it gets charged pretty quickly! Mine gets charged fully in just over an hour!!

It's terrible mate. I'm returning mine to Sony. Was on 17% at 4pm, unplugged at 7am with moderate use.

I'm very satisfied with the battery life. I keep mobile data off except for about 1 hour per day, otherwise use wifi. Bluetooth is on whenever I'm in the car.. 2 or 3 phone calls per day on average, 5-10 text messages.
My battery usually lasts 3 days.
i will not believe this unless you post battery history screenshot.
My battery last no longer than 36 hours (from 100% to turn off) when i don't use my phone almost at all, with moderate use (3-5 calls and 10 sms), i unplug from charger in the morning and plug it back at the evening
Battery is realy good on Xperia NXT series compared to other Android devices.On my Xperia U it usualy last for 3-4 days,and it charges realy fast
Ok thanks all guys, i just want to know because i need to move to Xperia P today!!! I saw someone post their opinion that only 2hours battery life on Xperia P!!!
Sent from my MT27i using xda premium
Here's a screenshot with my average useage. It lasts more then 2 days for me.
Also ICS on xperia P has a new standby mode, then you can stay like 1week with this if you dont use your phone, even with "normal use" you can stay like 4days
I hands Xperia P now all Say Hello to me please ^^

I am nearly always connected to wifi and I set up Juice defender in a way that it disables mobila data when connected to wifi based on location. So the straight answer is: yes.
Where is the battery history of Xpeira P?
I can't find it!
BTW I have examined battery graph/history of many android phones. this one is a bit strange.
Hey Guys,
I bought xperia z2 and htc m8 three days back.My xperia z2's back gets heated while using normal apps or camera for about 5 minutes and battery gets drained so fast that ever never last for about a day by normal usage without heavy apps
.I have even tried on stamina mode which didn't even give me a better result.I compared my phone with htc m8 with same apps, htc m8 battery stays much longer and not doesn't heat up when compared to xperia z2 (I also tried cpu temp app where xperia z2 goes about 60 c and htc m8 reaches only max about 48 c.
Now my question is that I have given my xperia z2 for replacement,Should I go for a new xperia z2 or get a refund??.Is this normal for all xperia z2 or have I got a defective piece??
I have read in Internet that recording 4k videos causes overheating but my case is on normal camera mode
model no. : D6503
Batch No. : 14W21
Plss help me ...

I have 14W17 and I do not have problems such as your phone. I can have my camera mode turned on for many minutes and it will not overheat, keeping in mind that it is around 20 degrees now in Ireland so...
No battery draining for me, it gets warmish at times if I use it heavily but not hot. My battery in stamina mode let my phone last for 3 days... 6 hours screen on time... I was calling for around two hours, wifi/4g during day/off during night, auto brightness, many sms/hangout messages, around 30 minutes on voice call on skype via 4g, around 1 hour browsing WWW, a bit of youtube and streaming of world cup on the phone... I may not be a heavy user but this usage is phenomenal for me!
I had HTC One M7 and I like Sony more.
I'd say go for replacement! If you get a good one it will get warm when you heavily use it, but it will note overheat when using camera normally or shooting HD video. Once you get a proper working phone, you should not regret it!
I had Htc One M7 before, than Note 3 and now this one. Best phone I have ever had is Z2....
Any problems such as heat, battery drain or misbehaving then replace your device as this is a noted defection
