Obsessing over battery life is like a rocking chair: gives you something to do but nowhere to go...

If it's that big of a concern to you, might I suggest the hybrid phenomenon known as "extended batteries". WARNING: you will have a turtle in a half-shell afterwards, aka Ford Festiva phone.

This phone has more than enough battery life on a charge. No need to purchase the Fiesta upgrade package.

Okay last question do you keep google now enabled and no thanks to the humpback battery im good off that ..if I disabled ceerain cards wont help with battery life because goodle will still track all the data its just a matter of keeping google now on or off because that is a significant juice saver ...so google now on or off on your phone

I leave google now on, but it depends on whether you would use it or not. I like having the various cards and reminders, etc. so I leave it on. You are right though, enabling/disabling individual cards won't do anything different to battery. Even with Google Now on though, I haven't found myself looking at my battery during the day.

What you can do though, is go into Latitude (Maps>Latitude>Locations Settings) and disable the share location history and "update from this device" options. Google Now will still detect your location, but if you're okay with not looking at where you were the last few days (Location History) I've found it saves a little bit of juice. I don't need to know I went to work and a happy hour yesterday.

I remember the humpback batteries - had one on my TBolt for about a week, but couldn't stand it. Humpbacks are for whales and bell-ringers.
