Motorola Droid Battery Life
I think with the new firmware update that verizon pushed out to the phones it has worked for the battery life. With my phone I can go about two days without charging it. During Monday through Friday I am at work so I am not on it a lot. I have emails being pushed to the phone. I will do light browsing of the internet and facebook during lunch on the phone. I haven’t really utilized the Google Navigation on the phone.
Here are some ways to save Battery life on your Motorola Droid
Use a Task Manager application on your Motorola Droid. The one that I use to quit the application that I don’t want to run is called Advance Task Killer. This is a free app in the market place.
You want your blue tooth, wireless, and GPS off if you are not going to be using them. This is a good idea to save battery life. I only use the wireless when I am uploading a YouTube video. I do have a blue tooth headset but I don’t use it. Again with the GPS I only used a couple of times to test it out. If I was planning a long trip then I would use it.
You also want to move the display brightness all the way to 0. I have it set to 0 and it is still bright to see everything that I need to. You also want to turn the screen Time Out something that you like, but you shouldn’t have it set to never sleep. I have mine set to sleep in 2 minutes. This has worked for me.

Darn. I was hoping this post was about how long batter life lasts if you use it everyday. That is always an important factor when I’m considering buying a new cell. I’ve been thinking about getting the Droid for Xmas but haven’t quite decided.
[...] 10. The tenth one and probably the newest article is about the Motorola Droid Battery Life. I got the Droid and really love it. It has it problems like any other phone out there. The battery life is very good with the new firmware update. You should also just make sure that you turn off applications that you don’t use.

Thanks for the info. I just rec’d my Droid two days ago, and I am still learning how to use it. I did not know about the “Advance Task Killer” until I read your post. After reading it, I immediately searached and installed it on my Droid. I was able to “click off” all apps that I was not using.
