    Not sure i'm in the right place here - apologies if not! :o

    Just wondering if anyone else with a Sony Ericsson W580i, has noticed how bad the battery life if like? I'm not even getting two full days out of it? I don't over use alot games etc so not sure if it's an actual fault with the battery?

    Is there anything i can do other than charging it every day - to help it!

    If the battery is brand new it will take a few full cycles of charging and discharging to reach full capacity.

    Does this phone have 3G? if so try turning this off (If you don't use it) as this can drain your phone big time and most people don't really need it.

    I get really good life out of my K800i on 3g but not on my Nokia N95 or Skype/3 phone. Sometimes it does come down to the handset it's self.

    No isn't 3g - only use it for calls and texts really - til i read up on it more.

    Suppose i shoud just let it run flat a couple of times and stay away from the games. I just find it disappointing in such a new phone/model.

    almost two days is good for the w580i. i've come to expect just over a day. turn off the pedometer and you might get a couple of extra minutes
