Android battery life



Additionally, as I mentioned, my Backflip was used intermittently last
night during the meeting, after the meeting, and a few times this
morning, and with Bluetooth, GPS, WiFi, and 3G all on, my battery is
still pretty strong at 36%, and that is without any battery
conservation. So, it really depends on the activity. It is also grabbing
news feeds as well as syncing mail, calendar, contacts and the other
stuff.  I have the screen blanking set for 1 minute. So, in contrast to
the BlackBerry, it uses more battery because it does more stuff, but you
can control some if not all of that.
