Title: Question to People who Used/Owned Nexus 7 for 1 Month or More
Post by: markhuges on September 14, 2012, 07:58:26 AM

Hello, :)

I Have a question to the users who have a Nexus 7 Tablet for 1 month or more.



1) When you First bought the Tablet: - How many hours did the battery life last?  From Full Charge 100% to 0%

2) Now After 1 Month/or more - How long does the Battery life last  in terms of Hours? From Full Charge 100% to 0%


Thank You :D

Never really measured it but seems to be in excess of 9Hrs (from 100% to about 10%).  No change after battery chartged a couple of timesDepends heavily on what services you are using.  For me, no Bluetooth, Wifi only when needed - about half the time.

I turn off GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi, and NFC when I don't need them.  The battery lasts 10-12 hours

That's a hard thing to answer because everybody uses the N7's differently, peoples times will vary...

I haven't actually measured mine, but only once have I gotten the low battery warning.  That was the day I watched videos for about 7 hours.

Exactly.  And everyone's usage can vary from cycle to cycle on their battery depending on how many videos are streamed, how bright the screen is, etc.
