Yeah, there's once my phone lasted for 30 hours in a single charge. With moderate usage of Whatsapp, browser, a little facebook and twitter. Lasted full 30 hours, was pretty shocked rofl.

Using AOKP M4 ROM with Franco Kernel though, M5 having data drop issues, reverted back to M4.

30 hours no problem at all. Most of the time I can get 2 days with moderate usage

With the quad core usage and better hi-res screen, the increased battery capacity may not mean increased battery life as compared to S2. We shall wait and see the review on the phone.

If you install custom rom with the right combination of kernel, you can actually get excellent battery life with the Nexus. Some has even reported 2 days of usage in a single charge on moderate usage.

The cores can be turned off based on load, plus a move to the 32nm HKMG process may in fact mean some power savings.

Strangely, it's always the ones using an older model without the new fangled hardware who make disparaging remarks before the actual products are released - in defense of their current choice. :D Sour grapes much?

Why can't we just accept the possibility this new quadcore setup might just be newer and better in the things that matter? The last time people said the same things of dualcore, and look where it got them. My HTC Desire had poorer battery life compared to the Samsung S2, and yet the performance gap was vast.

Yeah, I know what u said in mitigation. Just stating my observations - it's always the same arguments until they themselves upgrade to the higher cores count, when then it suddenly becomes the best thing since sliced bread. :D

Most evident in the Sony forums, before they finally decided to switch to dualcore. I've not been there for some time, but I'm pretty sure there are some hermits there arguing against the progress to quadcore again. :D Some people just can't stand progress - unless they themselves have made the choice to progress. Classic examples of sour grape. :D Not you I mean, some other people. :D

Looking on the positive side, they probably do so to prevent themselves from burning more holes in their pockets to upgrade their phones :D
