Once my phone starts dying every day, it is worse than useless to me. I have announced to the World that I can be reached by any means at any time, and half the time I am carrying around a dead brick, and pissing off everybody who tries to contact me. I have disabled as much as I can, but the battery suck continues. It is almost as if the competing feature architects have insulated their little contributions to the battery suck and leave it to some other department to invent the Magic Battery Fairy to make it all work.

I just recently got the LG G2 and it is the stingiest battery user of any phone/droid/blackberry/Windowsphone I have ever used.

I have left it on overnight at less than 50% and awakened to a phone with between 40% and 45%.

I used to be lucky to finish a round of golf using a gps golf app. This phone uses 15% battery for 18 holes.

Got one for my wife and one grandson who's brother has the latest iPhone, and his brother now wants one.
