Which WP8 handset has the best battery life?

[logansja]

I will be getting a new WP8 handset soon and I was wondering which handset has the best battery life. I had a HTC Trophy which would last me 24 hours with moderate use and am currently using a HTC 8S which lasts a little less... I have no brand preference.

Nokia Lumia 720, a monster in baby's clothes.

Interesting... my GF has a L520, how does the build quality compare? I find the camera button on the L520 is a bit hard to use compared to my old Trophy and current 8S..

720 easily.

I know the Huawei Ascend W1 has a sizeable power pack, but its slightly beaten by the Lumia 720. The 720 features a large (2000 mAh) battery with lower powered internals. (same size as the higher powered 920 and the larger 625, which isn't too shabby either) Although the 720's battery is sealed unlike some other models.

But the W1 is lower cost, generally has less support than the stellar Nokia, and is a bit lower end. But the battery is still a force to be reckoned with at a sizeable 1950 mAh coupled with a smaller 4" display (like the 520).

Don't know about the W2 though.

I'd spring for the 720 unless cost and battery life is paramount above all else

The 1520 has stellar battery life and is super powerful

I own both 925 and 1520 I think both having amazing battery life. 1520 is ridiculous great.

Dude, The 720's battery life is the best!

+1 for 720. If it came with pureview camera and more internal storage, it would be my number 1 choice. Battery life is 2~3 days easily.

Surprisingly Huawei w1/2, NL 720, but the most has been Huawei and 1520.

720 is great, but 1520 is the best on the market (including all androids and iphones) ...

Gsmarena: With that kind of overall rating, the Lumia 1520 is the best performer we have seen and well ahead of the other phablets (or any phone) we?ve tested so far.
