Re: Problems with S3
Have you taken it back to the shop.
It's not "Fit for purpose".

Re: Problems with S3
Not talking just about phone batteries but batteries in general.As soon as they have some age they vary tremendously over power life.Everything has an affect,completely depleting the charge,overcharge,frequency of charge and the speed of discharge due to usage.
My bike battery is always on charge when the bike is garaged and I would hope for a 7-8 year life span from new. Other people can be lucky to get 3-4 years from their battery |

Re: Problems with S3
why not swap battery with your mate and re run the test to verify if the battery is the limiting factor. One assumes both phones are running the same version of OS. If not you can at least see what you would expect to gain on your battery once your phone has been upgraded

1. I don't have a bike at the minute  2. If I did do that, I'd probably get a puncture 3. Phone insurance is mostly a scam and they have such ridiculous terms normally including an excess of £50-100 too. It's not that bad I can't live with it, it's just frustrated when you want to use features and have to constantly think about the battery. Since doing the firmware upgrade, it does seem a bit better, although I haven't used it much recently so we shall see. |
