Unfortunately all the modern phones suck when it comes to battery (compared to what we had in the past).

Either:
Get an old phone second hand off ebay or whatever.
Buy a modern phone with replacable battery, carry spare batteries with you.

Turn off 3g , wifi and gps and you would be surprised what a modern phone can do

the xperia play has a decent battery if your not banging buttons on it the whole time.

The Nokia 6700

Stand-by Up to 300 h (2G) / Up to 300 h (3G)
Talk time Up to 5 h (2G) / Up to 4 h (3G)

Compare this with

Nokia X1-01

http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_x1_01-3962.php

Stand-by Up to 1032 h
Talk time Up to 13 h

Thats with the BL-5J 1320mAH battery you can get a 1430 mAh one for it too.

My old SE 810i got about 5 days out it. A Nokia E71 will do much the same perhaps even longer.


Standard battery, Li-Po 1500 mAh (BP-4L)
Stand-by Up to 410 h (2G) / 480 h (3G)
Talk time Up to 10 h 30 min (2G) / 4 h 30 min (3G)

The new version of the E71 is the Nokia E6

Standard battery, Li-Ion 1500 mAh (BP-4L)
Stand-by Up to 681 h (2G) / Up to 744 h (3G)
Talk time Up to 14 h 48 min (2G) / Up to 7 h 30 min (3G)

What said most modern phone can be charged with a Micro USB battery back. So you can use one of them almost endlessly if you have a battery pack. I've a couple of these

its only got a 600mz processor so doesnt need massive battery

Screen size comes into it too. Less to power.

If all you want is long talktime and standby, I can recommend the Samsung GT-E2370
20+ hrs talktime and 40+ days standby.
I have one and its a pretty basic phone with a small screen ruggedised build and an amazing battery life.
Not sold officially here but they can be got.

BostonB

Thats some battery...

BATTERY Standard battery, Li-Ion 2000 mAh
Stand-by Up to 1600 h
Talk time Up to 22 h

Think thats the winner so far...

One option is to carry a spare battery in your wallet !! I know a few people who do this. Sad that it needs to happen but true.
