Battery Test on Xperia Mini Pro SK17i

[ahm09]

Let me here give you and example of how bad is this phone battery situation is .
I have an HTC HD2 running android 2.3.3 and it has a 1GHZ processor which is the same with the xperia mini pro i bought , on the other hand the HD2 has 4.3" screen while the mini pro is only 3" so I already nticed after using the mini pro that its consuming so much battery than the HD2 but i wanted to be more specific so below are the details

HD2 Battery is 1230mA, xperia mini pro 1200mA ( Almost the same )

so I left both of them in idle for 8 hours ( wifi is on both have the same apps like Facebook , google+, twitter, with the same update settings, )

the HD2 dropped from 82% to 71% in 8 hours in idle (Lost 11% )
The mini pro dropped from 100% to 50% in 8 hours in idle ( lost 50%)

for me this is a big gap between the two devices and to be honest i expected the HD2 to have a shorted battery life conidering its much more powerfull device and its 2 years old with the same 2 years old battery.

and i also noticed that during the test:
the HD2 never exceeded 10mAh consumption at all
the mini pro rarely went below 50mAh and the minimum was 26mAh

so i guess there is something that eats the battery during the idle time and it is taking alot of it comparing the two devices.

in fact when i bought the mini pro i wanted smaller device that will have a better battery life , but now its totally the opposit which make me confused.

custom ROM may increase the xperia mini pro battery life. before this i had a xperia x8, using the custom ROM, battery life increase 30-40% more than using the stock ROM. original ROM contain a lot of junk/trash application which consume more RAM and battery life.

I think there is something wrong with your phone or a app. my phone had lost 20 % on 8 hours, i got my phone today

I think there is something wrong but I'm not sure what it is exactly, and this is happening while the phone is in idle (sleep)

There is (was?) similar problem with SE Arc, which I had before this phone. The culprit was the stock picture app which whould, once started, drain battery from the background. Try keeping it on idle after a reboot. I hope this phone does not have this issue, too, since it already has enough of them
