Cool Touch Mogul And Others Test
Interesting HTC TOUCH Test
Link: Info hxxp://www.wirelessinfo.com/content/HTC-Touch-Cell-Phone-Review/Battery-Life.htm Call Time (3.82) To test how long the HTC Touch lasts on a call we made a phone call to the phone using Skype and piped an audio book over the connection to simulate conversation. We then timed how long the phone lasted before the battery ran out. The HTC Touch lasted 3 hours and 11 minutes in our call time test. This is somewhat surprising, since the Touch has a decent-sized 1100 mAh battery. This may be impacted by the fact that Sprint uses a 3G network, however, which tends to be more battery-intensive than older 2G networks. Whatever the reason, you can clearly see below that the Touch didn't do very well in this test. We expect an average phone to last between four and five hours, and some last significantly longer. Cell PhoneTalk TimeScore Rating HTC Touch 3 hours 11 mins 3.82 Helio Ocean 4 hours 7 mins 4.94 BlackBerry Curve 8320 7 hours 24 mins 8.88 HTC Mogul 5 hours 30 mins 6.60 Palm Centro 4 hours 8 mins 4.96 Apple iPhone 7 hours 4 mins 8.48 Music Playback (3.42) To see how long the HTC Touch lasted while playing back music we set the phone to play a looped album at maximum volume using the loud speaker. We left all other settings at their default and timed how long it takes for the battery to die. The HTC Touch lasted 4 hours and 45 minutes in this test. As with talk time, this isn't a very good score, and most of our comparison phones lasted at least a couple of hours longer. Once again, we're surprised the Touch's 1100 mAh battery didn't last longer, as music playback is typically much less battery-intensive than calling, but there seems to be a trend of poor battery performance here. Simply put, if you listen to music a lot you'll probably want to invest in a second battery, because the Touch won't last very long. Cell PhoneMusic Playback TimeScore Rating HTC Touch 4 hours 45 mins 3.42 Helio Ocean 8 hours 9 mins 5.87 BlackBerry Curve 8320 12 hours 2 mins 8.66 HTC Mogul 11 hours 13 mins 8.08 Palm Centro 6 hours 47 mins 4.88 Apple iPhone 10 hours 46 mins 7.75 Web Browsing (3.94) For our Web browsing test we pointed the Touch's browser at a page that is set to refresh automatically every 10 seconds. We then ensured the screen stays on and timed how long it lasted. The Touch was able to browse for only 3 hours and 17 minutes in our test, similar to what we saw from our call time test and completing the trio of poor battery life results. As with our call time test, we expect the Touch is hurt because it uses Sprint's 3G network, which is more battery-intensive. If you do a lot of browsing on the Touch you're going to run out of battery life quick. Cell PhoneBrowsing TimeScore Rating HTC Touch 3 hours 17 mins 3.94 Helio Ocean 4 hours 19 mins 5.18 BlackBerry Curve 8320 9 hours 43 mins 11.66 HTC Mogul 4 hours 8 mins 5.36 Palm Centro 4 hours 22 mins 5.24 Apple iPhone 5 hours 13 mins 6.26 |

Interesting but you guys have way to much time on your hands! So is there anything you can do to make the battery last longer?
