How long does the battery life last on handsets
170227
I have used my set for nearly a year with no problems. The batteries should last at least a couple of years if not 3 or 4+.

The battery lasts quite a while if you add a battery management app. It will turn things off that drain the battery like gps. If you leave the gps on it will drain it in a day. I was on the phone talking to a friend for about 2 hours and it didn't hardly make a dent in the time left on the battery. I do turn the wifi on when I want to down load something quickly as the 3g is a little slow. But as long as you remember to turn it off when you are done it doesn't take up too much power. I hope this helps.

the battery life lasts approx 4-8 hours...sometimes longer if not used continuously.

Each of the hand sets has a base that need to be plugged in. The battery on the phones lasts for a long time. I had it off the charger for 4-5 days and with a few calls each day I still have 1/2 the battery life left.

Life is good. Mine last two or three days, but I don't use often. Charges up quickly. Great phone

This phone has a Li-Ion 820 mAh battery, it will stay on for up to 750 hrs on stand-by

I have a similar model (not exactly the same one) and the battery life is superb - lasts many days of normal usage and many years of use. I am now in my third year of use. Remember, if you are in an area of low or no coverage, this drains the battery fast and it's best to turn off your phone in such cases, if you can.

Very good. The longest I've had it uncharged was about over 10hrs talking and it was at 20% by then. But I did buy a refurbished phone with a new battery and I used low light settings to conserve energy. So take that into account as well....

I have not yet run the battery out of charge and I have daily long phone calls with my partner who lives on the other side of the state during the work week. It lasts at least 2 hours so far, probably longer (though I might not).

Thanks a lot for contacting me with this question. You are right the battery life of my mobile telephone is very short. It is alife only within 12-14 hours online (3G, watsup, facebook, skype, GPS). If I turn off some function (GPS, data transfer etc.) the result will be better (the phone have some energysaving functions).

It's lasted a few 2 hour conversations and then the phone is returned to its' charger. Phones are usually left in their chargers so I can't really say how long they'd last on standby. Mine work well -- way longer than the old OEM batteries the phones came with.

I usually get 4-5 hours of talk time which is consistent with the 4.5 hours Bose claims on their website. If the headset is off and not in use it retains the charge very well. I just went two weeks after a full charge and it was at 99% when I used it again.

I purchased new batteries (2 as they were so inexpensive & I plan to keep my phone for a while) after owning my phone for about 16-18 months. The original battery was lasting only half a day. I use my phone primarily for checking e-mails & some calls, very little online time. The new battery lasts all day or close to it with my usage. I would guess - as another reviewer posted - that you might get 4 hours of internet use. Buy a couple & switch them out. BTW... batteries losing the ability to stay charged is normal for any rechargeable battery, not just the HTC or other smart phones. Another option is buying the double size battery. Just a thought.

I have not had phone long enough to answer your questions. On previous phone when it was fairly new the battery would hold 5 or 6 hours. On the new one I've talked for an hour. Haven't talked on it for longer times yet As my old phone got older the time came down to 30 and 40 minutes. That's when I got the new phone although I could have bought a new battery for the old phone I suppose.

I've had phone calls of up to 2 hours with no problems. Keep in mind the battery capacity will diminish over time. After about 2 years I was getting only about an hour between charges, but the battery recharges pretty quickly.

I get 3-4 hours on a full charge. you can hot swap the battery if you Pause the call First.

Around 6 hours active use, significantly longer when connected but idle. It tells you when it turns on how many hours of talk time left, but as it ages it gets less accurate. When new it's pretty consistent, but after a year of daily use mine would say "more than 1 hour of talk time" and die within 40 minutes. It charges with a standard microUSB like most phones use, so you can use a cheap car charger. It charges to full from dead in about 10-15 min I think (never actually timed).
