Hi guys,
Was in a few phone shops at the weekend and was amazed to see the quoted standby time of a HTC Desire was..
wait for it...
.... 14 days.
Yup, Fourteen Days. Infact all the smartphones had quoted standby times of around 2 weeks.
Is it any wonder people are annoyed about battery life when the mobile phone networks stores mislead people in such a way?
It's completely impossible to get 14 days standby out of a HTC Desire. I tried when I was in the States - set to 2G mode only, data disabled, everything disabled pretty much, no calls made or received and it still only lasted 3 days..
Why are they allowed to basically.. lie?
