Battery is 12% now (11am) and I am sure it will last till the night. I would only suggest that u let ur battery drain completely, say till it shows 1% and then charge ur fone. Do not charge when it is more than 5%. This increases the longevity of ur battery. Hope it works.

    not impressed at all. hopefully SE and/or samsung sort it out in their devices.

          Not happy to have a faulty fone.
          First the flash and now battery.

          I'm going to buy a new battey. When i'm buying it, how can i know that the new one is not faulty? Is there any way to know if the battery is faulty or not?

            Now the time is 10pm here.
            It has been about 34hours. The battery level is 41percent.
            I had a quarter of gaming (tennis), 5mins video and some gprs.

            I'm sure there is no problem with the signal. Cuz there is an antenna near the building i'm living in.

A PERFECT PHONE means to have EVERYTHING EVERY SINGLE PERSON wants in ONE, and trust me NO such phone exsists, the OmniaHD is decent, the fact it can do 720p a/v is certainly an extraordinary achievement for a mobile device of its size, but personaly i dont like it at all, nor do i like a HTC Touch HD, both in my opinion are complete OVERKILL of what the iPhone started, then again im more into devices like the N86 8mp, Innov8, and even XPERIA X1, i could argue that to me those are nearly perfect,for my needs.

                  Hi friends
                  I charged my fone exactly 30 hours ago.
                  I had 10 mins call, 30 sms, about 45 mins gprs and 5 or 10 mins exploring the phone menus and nothing else.
                  Now battery is 50percent.
                  Is it normal?

                              WinMo is cool but i would only go for Xperia X1.

                              After seeing SE Idou's pictures i think its going to be a good phone to.

                              Android is good but we'l need to wait for more phones with it. they'l be one good one with it in implemented.

                                But when u compared k850 to n95's s60v3 fp1, it's unfair..when u switch from a200 to s60 or winmo or linux..u'll be amazed..

                                Early version of symbian (s60v2 fp3, or s60v3 initial release-non feature pack like n73) also laggy n bugs evrywhere..

                                But next feature pack 1 (n81,n82,n95,sammy i450,sammy g810,lg kt610) brings very2 significant improvements like gr8 audio+cam+video quality,and nokia start to utilize advanced cpu like omap2420,frescale mxc300-30+128mb ram,then sammy utilize omap2430..

                                Fp2 brings eye catching ui,like transition+zooming effect+3d games but nokia ditch omap2420 like n95 and goes with mxc,it's very2 bad decision so their n79,n85,n96 very2 laggy + bugs,

                                That's why i took innov8 which still use powerful omap2430,so it can handle heavy 3d effect of fp2 goodies very well,

                                Hope symbian foundation become better n better with overall support from nokia,samsung,lg,n se...

                                Cheers

                                  Ive been using this phone for the passed couple months. Got used to the keypad but its still a bit hard to text fast especially with one hand. I love how it looks though. I got the quicksilver black one. Havent had any issues yet so Im pretty happy with it overall. Very solid and durable phone. I would recommend this phone to whoevers thinking bout getting it.
