V551 poor battery life.....

Why is the new V551 battery so poor. only last one day?
I hardly making any calls. Bluetooth turned off.
My old blackberry battery last at least 3 days plus over 500 emails per day.
Only reason I wanted it is because of the EDGE network.
I'm returning it tomorrow

It must be your battery ... my charge lasts for a few days with 15 minutes
or less talk minutes.

My V551 battery lasts 3 to 4 days. Get another battery.

It's not the phone. It is most likely the battery. I get 4 days with mild
usage on mine before it drops to 1 bar. That's not even the flashing bar,
just when it first goes to one bar.

I think, you have a faulty battery. This phone usually gives you 2-3 days
battery life with normal usage.

I only charge mine every few days or so. Either your battery or charger
isn't playing nice.
