How long does it last?
How long does it last?
What is it with men? They seem obsessed with mobile phone battery life.
Hardly a week goes by without some guy in a lift ogling my iPhone 4 and chirping, “are you happy with it?” and then usually before I can barely finish grinning like a kid on Christmas day, the second chirp is hurled, “I heard the battery life is bad. How long do you last?”
That’s like asking how far your credit card goes. It depends how many times you swipe it, and for how much. Come on guys, this is basic arithmetic and logic.
When I answer, “well, about 24 hours, depends how much I use it”, I usually get a pitiful look, as if to say, “shame you poor man, mine lasts 3 days”. Why on earth would I want my phone battery to last that long?
Here’s the rub dudes - we’re living in a modern city, there are power sockets just about every 10 paces - we’re not living in the middle of the Kalahari! Plug in, recharge, it’s not so bad. And if you can’t bare to be without your phone while it’s charging, do it while you sleep.
And no, women never ask this question.
It’s going to be a long night… 9 hours! Sheesh, is the whole world online now and downloading this? I guess the servers at Cupertino are cooking, not to mention the interweb pipes!
And it’s faster and cheaper now. Pretty amazing what we carry around in our pockets these days!
