Greetings,
My wife and I both have Nokia Lumia 1020's. We love the phones with one exception - the battery life is horrid. My wife is on her second 1020 as we had the original one replaced due to a seemingly defective battery (full discharge in 3-4 hours with no apps installed). My wife has done very little tweaks to hers and is running with mostly default options. I have optimized my phone heavily for battery performance. We both struggle to get even 12 hours out of our devices.
Today I woke up with a full charge and barely touched my phone. I checked Facebook for about 30 seconds in three hours as well as checked my battery level periodically. The rest of the time it sit mostly in my pocket. After three hours of hardly any use my phone had discharged over 25%. Another three hours went by of barely touching my phone and another 25% had discharged.
I have my screen brightness set to low. My email accounts are set to 1-2 hour intervals. I have blocked nearly every single application from running in the background. I have gone through every battery optimization tutorial I can find and tweaked my settings.
It frustrates me seeing people giving reviews of the 1020 saying they can go two days on a charge and I can barely make it through half of a day. Any advice here?
