How Good is the iPhone Battery?

By: David Smith..

The Apple Ipod is the standard that most MP3 players try to live up to. While the new Apple iPhone marks Apple's first foray into the market of smartphones. I'm sure the iPhone will be a success, the question is whether it will become as great a success for Apple as it's Ipod, and become an industry standard.

The iPhone is a stunning new smartphone built around it's very capable multimedia capabilities, internet connectivity, as well as a 2.75G quad-band GSM network connection system. It offers a 2.0 megapixel camera, Wi-Fi connectivity capabilities for connecting to the internet, and of course it's very impressive touch screen user interface system, with a virtual keypad as its main "mobile phone" input system. The phone's touch system is known for its cutting edge technology, being truly groundbreaking there is nothing quite like it. Its storage features are quite impressive, boasting a 4 gigabyte and 8 gigabyte model for potential users to choose from. It comes with an internal iPhone battery, which powers the iPhone impressively, the raw power fueling the iPhone and its boasted features.

According to Apple, the iPhone battery has a talk time rating of eight hours, while internet usage time is estimated at six hours, depending on the video format the battery should last up to seven hours, twenty-four hours of podcast and music playback, and a very impressive two hundred fifty hours of standby time power.

None of the iPhone competitors come close to matching the battery capacity of the iPhone. The iPhone with it's eight hours of talk time, doubles the capacity of the Nokia N95, the Blackberry Curve 8300, and the Palm Treat 750. Each of those phones only boasts a 4 hour talk time rating. While the Samsung Blackjack is eclipsed as well with it's talktime rating of 5.5 hours.

Compared to it's competitors, the Apple iPhone's battery life is very impressive.

Not all is roses with the Apple iPhone however. The iPhone battery is internal and cannot be removed, while it's competitors have easily replaceable batteries.

I've owned a Palm Treo for years. Myself and many other Treo users know about our battery life issues, for that reason I often have a battery replacement with me and charged. So in case the battery goes dead, I can quickly replace it with the backup battery. This cannot happen with the iPhone, you must recharge the battery to be able to use it again.

If there ever is an issue with the battery, or the battery naturally loses it's life due to age you'll find the other major issue with the iPhone's battery. In the event that you need the iPhone battery replaced, you'd need to bring the phone into an official iPhone shop to have an technician replace the battery.

The least of your worries with an iPhone should be the battery. This phone will perform remarkably, and hopefully will last long beyond the normal 2 years of life most phones enjoy.
