Battery life issues after Jellybean update ?

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi

 

I (like several others) are awaiting the O2 Jellybean update for NFC-enabled S2 phone.

 

I have read various sources suggesting a decrease in battery life after JB update (? due to apps that need disabling / uninstalling).

 

Is this true ?

 

I am going to Glastonbury festival so would ideally like to minimise drain on my O2 S2.

 

So if this is a significant issue & the update comes out before Glasto I might avoid updating until I get home !

 

Thanks

I'd think pretty much any smartphone would struggle to complete a few nights in a tent over a festival weekend.

So JB or no JB I don't think it'd matter unless you kept in in airplane mode the whole time.

I think I would get a cheap non-smart handset to go to Glastonbury, you could get one for a tenner.

 

Battery life of about a week or more then.

You could also get a small portable charger.

How long are you currently getting out of your battery and what kind of usage do you envisage?
