How are people's experiences with the battery life on the 830? Is it better than/comparable to the 635?

Re: Battery Life

I can say it's better than the battery life on my old 925 and I didn't have a problem with the battery life of that one so I'm definitely happy with the battery life on the 830.

Re: Battery Life

It compares favorably to my HTC 8x. I can use Waze and the 830 will barely get warm; the 8x would get very very hot and even plugged would still be draining the battery! With the 830, I think it drains at about 15%/hour when using Waze.
Still need to plug in every day though, won't do two days unplugged with my usage.

Ha...! Normally i put my phone into flightmode when i sleep. This night i forgot. But in know when i last looked at it, it was 04h and i had 40% left (that was easy to remember). I woke up 10ish and guess how much i had left....?

40% !

My old Lumia 620 would have lost at least 12% in that time. Could be the new Update 8.1.1 + Denim, or the better Snapdragon 400...i dont know. But its great ^^

Re: Battery Life

I have both (635 and 830) and battery life is comparable if no slightly better on the 830. Actually I get comparable usage but I am using the 830 on a weaker network.

The new Whatsapp update has improved my 830 battery life significantly. Usually it will take about 12-14 hours, now it is almost 24 hours.
