i thought so in the begining......
the average battery life measured for the T68 is 287 hours, but this is if the phone is lying unused, if you turn on the screen and are playing games or editing your phone book etc.... this is the same as making a call!!!! also if you recharge your phone every night for 3-4 times and realy topping the battry, the standby will increase.....on my T28 i was used to charge it to the red zone and the fully charge it again....this seems not to be the case with the T68!!!

i have not figured this one out yet either, neither has the people in ericsson. The battery life on my phone last only little over a day. on the specs it's suppose to have a standby of 12 days and i asked ericsson about this and they said it should last me about 2 days even with heavy usage. after going through 4 phones and 4 batteries to no avail, the same result. what about other users? can anyone tell us how long their batts last???

I have T68 (made in Sweden), firmware R1B, and I ran this test 3 times already: I charge my N6150, N6210 and T68 and use the T68 at work, N6210 personally and do not use N6150 at all.
T68 won 3 times out of 3, lasting more than 6 days. I believe that if I let T68 on the table as I do then N6150, it gets some 10 days without problems ...
My girl just got T68 (made in Malaysia), FW R1B, and it lasts the same ... charged twice since X-mass

mine lasts for about 4 days with my regular usage. this include quite a lot of SMS and games but limited calls.
i had the same problem when my phone was new. the battery would only last for less than a day but after a few charging after that i got it up to 4 days without charging. i guess the battery conditions itself over time. is this true with most of you guys?

Hi, I also have "the problem" that it goes from half to red when turning on and off. Thin ONLY happens when GPRS has hung, it seems like the battery-bar isn't updated when GPRS hangs. Furthermore, when GPRS hangs it drains the battery...
I contacted
a couple of days ago about the hanging and other problems with the phone, but I haven't gotten an answer yet...
