Default Average Screen On Time?

Would really like some feed back from Note users. What is your average screen on time per charge on this device?

I'm sitting on the fence between getting another Galaxy Nexus (lost) or getting a Galaxy Note. I played with a Note today and while it's big I think I can just about overlook it's size. Anyway, I used to get about 3-4 hours with my Nexus. I'm sure you guys are getting a lot more with your Note's.

Please comment.

Well this really equates to the number of running apps etc.
But on an average Display accounts for almost 65-70% of battery drain and on a whole with moderate use my phone lasts more than a day ~ 28 hrs.
Samsung does have settings which optimizes the screen display to consume optimum power.

Cheers

Average 4-5 hrs. There are other people in this forum who have reported this too.
Also note: it would totally depend on the apps running, signal strength etc

Put in a fully charged battery (I have two), it was idle for about 10 minutes when I went to the loo. Other than that, I never put it down. Browsing, texting, tweeting, checking Facebook, scouring through Android Market, flipping through photos on Gallery, made two phone calls, Angry Birds, read an eBook...

Finally gave me the "connect your charger" warning after five hours.

Thanks for all the replies guys.

I've decided to go back with the Nexus.

As much as I want it to, the Note simply wouldn't fit as well with my lifestyle.

Thanks again.

Rounding 5 hours screen time now. I've played way too much Wordfeud!

♣ Samsung Galaxy Note ♣ CyanogenMod 10.1

First shalt thou take out the Holy Hand Of Choke™, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Of Choke™ towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.
