Guest Davidoff59 Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Yes smart phones arent really meant for taking lots of photos. Its just an add on really to satisfy consumers. Just think how much work it has to do for 1 picture. The screen is on, it has to focus,take the pic, process it and then save it, and using flash will increase it also. Gps is also a power hungry beast but its still added as thats what consumers want presumably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pritsey Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Taking pictures has never hammered the battery as much using any other phone I've had though. I appreciate what goes into taking a photo, but looking back at iPhone 4 (and 3gs), nexus one all the way back to my 7650, the battery had decreased as expected with use. I sometimes find that the phone will tell me that I've got 29% and did I want to turn on power saving and then 10 mins later its over 40%. So perhaps its more hoe the OS is interpretting use and not averaging it out over long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pondlife Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) The battery meter doesn't seem especially accurate tbh. First 10% seems to vanish and the next 10% holds on much longer, it's a bit weird. And wants to turn on power saving far too early for my liking.

Guest Davidoff59 Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Yes if you look at the battery stats graph, sometimes it goes up. Must be buggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest andysalmon Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Has now happened to me too. Appeared after a walk with the handset in my pocket. Not hot and not wet. Pressing the back with the battery off removed the "stain". If it keeps happening, it'll be going back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Davidoff59 Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Take pics if possible and post on huawei uk Facebook page. They will then hopefully look into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, I think that the battery life has began to settle down. Perhaps it needed a few charge/discharge cycles to bed in? Anyway, it seems much improved now, so perhaps I jumped the gun!

Guest pelago Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Is this about the battery life or did I miss something earlier in the thread? He's talking about the blob that appears on some people's G300 screens (I've not seen it on mine). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pritsey Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 A colour blob or like a burn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
