About batt issues (though not with the K750i) . . . I was surprised to see when my Motorola A768i was totally drained for about 5 hours (flat out) then charged it for 2 hours. Upon turning the power-ON, I noticed that the Date settings was set to default - January 1, 2000
though the time was recorded in- real. What gives here mates? Thanks!

moto fw are crap, a925 and a835 is a real nightmare, a1000 crashes usually and there are no upgrades for those. in the "3" store they had so many problems with those, that they dont even recommend it to buy.

BTW, does vibration alert use less power than the regular ring tunes through the speaker?
Vibration alert is driving a motor which probably has greater power consumption than just ringtones through the speaker. I guess turn this off too if a few extra minutes of battery life are crucial.

@dude_se I meant that if standby time is longer than talk time, obviously the more you talk, the more battery is consumed. I was trying to say that there are people that really talk alot but more than necessary.

......, do not constantly charge your batt when its still got life left (will eventually decrease batt life) and most of all id just use my common sense meaning id switch it off at night when i dont need it and put on the keylock or the backlight will stay on for ages.

I don't get this part where u said abt constantly charging the phone while there's still life in it. I read some of the posts inside here saying that it does not matter that much whether u charge everyday or once in a few days. Also read somewhere in esato saying that draining the battery is not good for it.
So can anyone clear my doubts?

Alot of it is just personal experience and preference. Generally speaking, you get the best performance and lifespan from a rechargable battery if you let it drain fully before recharging. However, in recent years mobile manufacturers have realised that this is not really desirable, people need to be able to use their phones all of the time.
As a result, most modern phones use batteries that do not have to be drained fully before recharging, they're made from different materials that do not suffer from the 'memory effect' that can decrease performance and lifespan.
In addition, You've no doubt noticed that if you charge your phone whilst it's switched on, you'll see a little screen saying 'optimised charging'. This means that the phone is actually monitoring and adjusting the electrical current that the battery is taking whilst it charges in order to ensure that the battery charges as quickly and fully as possible.
I think that nowadays, your usage of the phone has a much bigger impact on battery life than the way you charge it up.
