[QUOTE="pendlewitch, post: 1363785, member: 214663"] Hi, There are a bunch of factors which will have a bearing on your battery life in this instance. The bigger the headphone's the bigger the drain. The higher the volume (75%+ particularly) likewise. The higher the bitrate (greater than 128Kbps MP3 particularly) and heavy WMA DRM 10 tracks even more so.. (do we still use Napster/Rhapsody?) Browsing the library and switching tracks during playback..again Having Sound Check enabled and the Equalizer above normal. Any other apps and location services that you may have ticking away in the background and other obvious ones such as the background light on the display. iOS5 has had some well documented issues against it with regards to people that upgraded from iOS4 and their complaints about battery run time. Hopefully the fixes have filtered through by now. Usage patterns are the key here and one cannot solely rely on rated battery life. Cheers, Liam p.s just a small point which people tend to get confused with. Lithium batteries do not take kindly to regularly being run down to the red-zone or flattened completely. Smaller more frequent charges will keep your battery in better health. [/QUOTE]
