Only got my 620 a couple of days but really impressed with battery. Yesterday i had 30% left after 13 hours of mixed moderate to heavy use. Today after 10 hours, I've got 60% left. That's with all the fancy settings on too, excepting NFC.

Coming from a galaxy note 2, i am extremely impressed. I struggled to make that last a full day. With this phone i don't even have to try lol...

This phone lasts me a full day and at the end of it i can watch about 2 hours of (local) video :)

I have an 8x during the week its plugged in virtually all the time as I have it on my desk with screen timeout set to never so I can see notifications and social media posts come in. At the weekend with medium usage - light gaming, texts and calls and some web browsing it will last a full day meaning I unplug it early morning 7am and it will still have at least 20% left on the battery in the evening when I go to bed around midnight.
You know you can see the notifications without leaving your screen on?

I have a Lumina 822 and I easily go all day. I've actually never gone below 50%. This is with admittedly light use, some emails, some texting, a couple of phone calls and maybe some light browsing. Probably not typical usage. ��

Nokia Lumia 520.
To be honest, I am really happy with the phone battery so far. (I have had the phone for 5 days now). Around 8-10 hours of normal usage daily, surfing the web, checking-in on Facebook, posting a tweet whenever I do something, and playing games alot of games which have an achievement system built-in (Because I got to get dem' gamerscore points).
Also, the phone is great, I am always messing with the home screen tiles, always trying to position them in such a way that it looks flawless.
I LOVE YOU, Windows Phone 8. I LOVE YOU!

Oh, and by the way, is there like a topic where I can see the special offers in the store, I am always intrested in free games for a limited time which feature achievements.
Thanks!

I have a 820 and get about 36+ hours of use out of a normal charge. That is about 10-15 calls, 5-10 texts, 10 or 20 emails, an hour or two of internet, five or six games of checkers, and checking 20 times day for the update which I am beginning to wonder if it will everr come (damn AT&T).

Battery life is pretty good on my 520.

I get 6-7 hours on heavy use, 8-9 on moderate and 10-11 on light.

Lumia 520 (AT&T)

From my Insider app, I can get an estimated 36-40 hours based on my usage. Just light email checking, Metrovoice checking for texts and a few apps. No video streaming such as Youtube or gaming. I have Wifi, Bluetooth, Data always on, medium brightness, and going back and forth between double tap to wake. I'm on wifi at work and home. The only time I use celllular data is when I'm commuting. When I'm at home, I use my desktop primarily for texting, web surfing, email, Youtube, listening to music, etc. Don't do a lot of talking on the phone. Overall, I'm happy with it, but I haven't tested it with heavy usage. I'm sure GPS will drain the battery quickly.

Nokia Lumia 822, on an average week day, I get 8 hours of light use+music, then when I get home I go crazy and browse the web, play games, etc, so my average battery life is 10-15 hours.

I just bought my Lumia 925 a few days ago, and I'm loving it's battery life!
It lasts for more than 18 hours with heavy usage, compared to my previous iPhone 5 that drains within 12 hours with the same usage.
