May 06 15:27:08 <earthnative> so a little while back (couple of weeks) I was noting how poor my pre3's battery life appeared to be... since then I've done some testing, and the 'keep wifi on when sleep' is what chews it - at a rate roughly of '100% battery in 12 hours'. With wifi off during sleep, and an otherwise idle phone, looks like I get about a week
May 06 17:48:30 <dwc-> yea, whether that's a win is dependent on what your phone does
May 06 17:49:12 <dwc-> how much data, whether you have constant data going over wifi/cell when sleeping, etc
May 06 21:56:23 <earthnative> dwc-: well, wifi whilst sleeping was eating the battery when doing nothing at all. No data... I imagine if I want wifi data to work whilst the phone is asleep, I'm basically screwed
May 06 23:00:09 <dwc-> or you toss it on a charger more often
May 06 23:01:07 <dwc-> I suspect for most users, they have facebook/tweets/emails/etc coming in or being checked for and for them, running over wifi might be less of a power hog than over cellular
May 07 00:05:00 <earthnative> dwc-: maybe, but "toss it on a charger" isn't viable if it can't last 12 hours when doing nothing at all
May 07 00:06:57 <earthnative> all that said, it's all rather academic. I want to find a use for the pre3, but at this point, do not in fact have one. I'm just enjoying having resurrected it :)
