If display time could last > 4 hours this phone would be perfect... but alas

[exzacklyright]

This still makes me sad :/ Never gonna get over 3 hours of display time.

Mine must be perfect then.

Hell, I'm lucky to get 2 hours in a charge

Yeah, the battery life for our phones is not the greatest, I've found a spare battery to be a must for longer days. I do get better battery life than what you're seeing though, an average of about 4 hours screen on per charge, with about 15-17 hours of standby using the standard 1750 mAh battery.

On Wi-Fi. Not 4G. And to the OP you should know better than to expect more over weak 4G. Its worst than 3G

Yeah... it's crazy. It's the one hindrance of smartphones... 4G + 4hour + display time would be ideal. FCC should make a mandate about battery life... "Must exceed 5 hours with the display on full brightness with a low signal 4G"

I'm not sure you understand what the FCC does... Vote with your wallet if you want a change, go buy a phone like the RAZR Maxx with a huge battery, complaining here won't do anything.

op, your signal strenght is very low. switch to 3g. gsm radios will always consume less power. we on maguro can get over 3h display, easy!

Yup, the GSM guys get much better battery life.

My VZN Gnex has less than 2 hours screen time with mixed LTE and wifi on a good signal. That said, I'm still going to complain no matter how many people say to switch to 3G. I believe consumers buy products because they should be good, not so they can make sacrifices after purchasing a product. As of yet, the VZN crowd doesn't have much of a choice for Nexus devices, so Gnex it is.

Make do with what ya got and don't let some battery life stop you from enjoying your phone. Just charge your phone if you get the opportunity and don't let it bother you.

Other phones are worse, some r better. No one says u can switch to a phone with better stats. I'm not complaining cuz I come from a droid charge where ubhad to tweak the crap out of it to get 2hrs of screen on time.
