This is what I do on my N95 8GB - turn the Wifi thing off. Very power hungry

It's literally a click to turn it on. If you want to have a shit battery life it's your call!

And I've not really been hammering it much today. The other day it was flat come home time at 430 ish. Good thing is it will charge from any usb with the right cable.

Do you have GPRS, Wifi and Internet on continually? You can disable them when you aren't using them. I turn mine off when the phone's sitting doing nothing and I had 32 hours out of it with 22% left (Using Smart Monitor) and that is with a couple of hours internet useage thrown in.


WiFi is off so is GPS. Ive left GPRS on as it would be in any other phone. CBA with having to turn it on to use the internet all the time........

Doesn't actually say they're stopping manufacture now I've read it again.

Rest was correct though.


TheReg carried a similar article, it sounds like they are going to cut back on the Nexus One and push forward on their next version of the phone which apparently will be more business oriented

Was mentioned on TheReg on monday - http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2010/04/26/vodafone_prices_up_google_nexus_one/

Pretty risky Voda taking it on though, apart from a few neat features like voice cancellation etc it's a bit of a pap phone and is plagued with problems.


John - are they stopping manufacture of the Nexus One? any links?

well, the nexus was a bit of a task to see if google could produce a decent handset. they had a few issues with 3g connectivity and the refusal to allow it on contracts halted the sales.

the desire feels better built, and has a higher ram memory. personal choice but desire feels better

That's a bit late, google have announced they are no longer producing it, the other phones currently out do the job better.
