My oppinion is that unless there was a quantum leap on Lithium Ion batteries on the last couple of months (which I don't believe) all brands that say their batteries hold much more power than the Sony Ericsson P1 original battery, are lying.
Maybe they hold that power ... but only for 30 seconds after recharge.

I would not buy anything other than original batteries. 1500 mAh in 950 mAh package. Funny!

I'm gonna have to disagree with those of you saying that the battery life is good. It seems like a mixed bag.

Since the first charge and use, my battery life has been horrible. I don't use bluetooth, 3g, WLAN, or gprs. My signal is usually about 3-4 bars. After an hour long phone call, battery life goes down about 20%. If I browse the internet for about 30 minutes, the battery life goes down 7-10%.

Some of you get the advertized 10 hours talk time. Good for you. But as for me, I get about 5 hours. Lucky you.

Nobody can get the 10 hrs advertised talktime. You should take it with a BIG pinch of salt if someone tells you it can do that.

I guess that would be in "optimal" conditions. If you compare with the k750, for example - in my area, it could take about six- seven hours talk... so to speak - i.e., an hour(gsm, using handsfree) would drain some 15%. And the p1 actually beats that, and ended up on about 12- 13%. So in fairly good conditions, you'd have somewhere around eight hours, using that way of measuring.

But the battery really does last a long time. The other day I accidentally left the phone with the walkman playing for five hours or so - and the meter went from around 75 to 50% *shrug*. And that was 192kbps mp3. I mean, I'm not complaining about that....

(But if it's significantly worse than that, you should have the phone looked at, imo).

My signal is usually about 3-4 bars.
-This might be your problem: knowing that Se phone refreshes the signal bar more often than other phones, i'd say 3 to 4 bars means your signal is not that good and this can deplete your battery fast,

After an hour long phone call, battery life goes down about 20%.
- That's normal. Same here.

If I browse the internet for about 30 minutes, the battery life goes down 7-10%.
- That's normal. Same here.

Some of you get the advertized 10 hours talk time. Good for you. But as for me, I get about 5 hours. Lucky you.
- Again, if you get 5 hours of continious talk-time it means you have to have at least 2 full days of stand-by with moderate use. Which again is normal.


In the end, I think you are over-reacting a little bit and I see no trouble with your battery time, based on what you have told us above.
