I am having my Xperia ZR M36h for 3 months and it was lovely. A little bit thick but happy I was able to switch batteries, being powered with my only 5000mah extended battery out off mpj, running average about 2 days off one charge. Basically no lag if it is not with many games.

Hey guys. i just got the Xperia tx and i love everything about it except the battery, It can barely last half a day with my usage. Any suggestion on bigger battery's with compromising on the form factor?
Thanks, Sid.
Hi,
It has something to do with exchange or email services...
When i configured the email client, my battery was sucked dry withing 3 hours.
Reseting your user helps!
I just completely stoped using it (unsure if I deleted the programm)
Under settings / Battery you can enable a save battery setting (it will turn off data when the display is off...)
I have made my phone last for 4 1/2 days with these settings...
I have to admit though that I had, WLAN, DATA, GPS and Bluetooth only on when I needed it..
I hope it helps
Cheers
Tony

Does anyone know anythning about Cameron sino 3400 mah battery for Tx?
Also I am seeing a 1900 mah battery for tx on eBay, no brand.
Any reviews.
Since I cannot put the phone on extended standby mode due to led not working, I will need an extra battery.
Thanks
I'm using powerbank (6600 mAh) for battery backup.
Because I don't like bulky alternative battery selling our there.
Hi, I'm about to sell my note 2 to buy an xperia Z... the phone looks fantastic, but pretty much all but one review I have read have said the battery life is appalling. Is that true? What are your thoughts on it????
Please help.
Don't worry!
It's okay!
If you not playing games or use screen on a long time.

Battery life is really dependent on how you use the phone. For me, I don't have problems hitting 1 full day of usage without recharge.
And I don't trust reviews on battery life, because it will get better after a few weeks of use (that's how it is on my previous Xperia phones). The reviewers only use the phone for a couple of days.
That said, the Note 2 comes with a 3100 mAh battery, while the Xperia Z battery is only 2330 mAh. So be prepared that it might not last longer than the Note 2.

Thanks for the input mate. I know the N2 has a huge battery and was impressed with the battery life. But the phone is just too big for me. It lasted 4-5 months before I got fed up with the size.
I do listen to music a lot 1-2 per day, and browse the web on and off during that time.
I'm hoping to get a day out of it.

Over the past 2 years I 've tried a lot of things to improve its battery life, following tips in many forums, installed related apps like Juicedefender and Wake Lock Detector. My phone could easily through one day if not using it hevily, however, I considered myself a heavy user, so I basically swapped an additional battery half day and has to change a new one semiannually before it was swollen. I have a dozen of OEM battery so far, but got my first extended battery (a 5000mah one of mpj) last month. Since I am not going to upgrade a new phone untill it can not work completely, I now rely on extd. battery. It currently gives me a total screen-on time of 6-7 hours with real-world use, and last over one day even with heavy usage. No reason to retire it, right?
Now i am wodering if swapping battery frequently would damge the phone??? If so, my next phone will definitely begin with extended battery!! LOL
can you share link from where you buy the battery that give you screen-on time of 6-7 hours?
and no i dont think it will damage, just wait like 1 min after you unplug battery and then put in another battery

moderate to heavy, 5-6 hours is my best! and glad to hear that it won't cut off my p990's life...lol
Thanks. Is it same weight, dimensions as stock battery? Because no cover is shipped, so it fits in stock cover?

It adds some weight and bulk so i can't use my original cover, but they offer me a free cover fits quite well
I need an extended battery in hurry. Hope it won't disappointed.
Thank you for your sharing!!!! It seems also compatible with my P999 which needing a new battery!:good:

I just recently bought my Sony Xperia ZR (LTE version) 3 weeks ago. It's already updated to 4.3 Jellybean when I got it but every time I'm using it after 4hrs of charging, it easily drains my battery when I'm playing games and do some internet stuff. Is it normal? I've read some articles and blogs that some users can lasts their batteries about 1 to 2 days of using it when it was not updated to 4.3 Thanks!

If you are using it,the battery sure will drop slowy,but if you play games/internet,drains more fast.
and yes 4.3 consume more battery than 4.2.2
hopes that 4.4.2 update will be better

yes i have the same problem. i just bought ZR yesterday too. and i have the same minor problem like you.
zr needs a 4hr charge, but drains really fast from 100% to 93% in just 10 mins of use. im also already on 4.3

actually i got the Xperia Z,but they are almost same,but different battery size.
for me it only takes about 2 hrs 30 mins to charge full using original Sony charger.

So that's why. I hope it will fix the problem for the next update. By the wau, since the day I bought this phone, I still not tried to test it on the water because touch block is not present on my phone and I don't know where to find it.
Hi all,
I'm very interested in switching to the z3 compact yet my main concern is the built-in battery. I'm concern that the battery might fail after the 1 yr warranty has elapsed. If this happens; I'd be at the mercy of the sony service center. Replacing a built-in battery will definitely cost a lot more than just swapping out interchangeable batteries like I do now with my s4 mini.
The xperia Z line has been around for 2 years now if I'm not mistaken, can anyone share the battery health of their Z device after 1 or 2 years of constant use (those who recharge every night). after the 2nd year did you feel that the battery lasts far less than what is acceptable? and how much did it cost you to get it replaced? or you just sold it and bought a newer generation phone.

It all depends on the way you charge your batteries.
- If you repeatedly using your phone till it's dead or almost dead, then recharge to full, the longevity will be short.
- Longevity is also affected by the length of time it is connected to the charger, the shorter the better.
- If you keep it at 100% all the time, this will reduce longevity ( fully charged = highly stressed battery).
I learned the above from the site below, so more info there:

This is what is happening to my s4 mini now. The battery barely lasts a day on my normal usage. Now I'm hardly using it because I'm afraid it will run out of juice before I reach home. I gets to a low 20% and then I charge it overnight. the z3 compact's 2 day battery will solve this for me, hopefully.

well that is a bummer. I was planning on purchasing a dock to set it as my alarm clock.

I normally keep my phone plugged in over night so that I can be certain that it will be full in the morning when I leave. This is because my current phone's battery drops by 10-17% overnight while I sleep. I compared that to an 5S running on 2G = 1-3% = awesome. (btw; signal is very ok at my house so I don't think it is waking up due to that)
Thank you for your inputs. I guess I'll have to change how I charge my phones from now on.
Have had my xperia z almost since launch and can't really say t hey I noticed any big difference in battery life. Sure some it prob are would be strange but lot so I notice it.
And for the long charge it isn't that big of a problem, have had my Z in the dock over night every day.
As with all these batteries (Li-ion): if you store them leave them at 40-60% then store them away , they dont like to run fully emtpy (although there probably is some hibernation implemented in the system like on laptops) nor fully charged.I think thats the reason why you also never get a fully charged/discharged device .
Batteries have been getting smarter so modern batteries of this type will never charge to 100% even though they display it (thats why leaving them connected it basically does no harm). I am assuming the Z3C also does it this way.
I recommend "calibrating" the battery once or twice every two months that means full charge , then full discharge, then full charge again but beware that if your battery is near death this procedure could be its killing blow due to bad cells .So just do it if you do not experience any problems with the battery, like a sudden drop in battery. Otherwise you can calmly "let it learn" its real capacity.
But again technology has also not slowed down on batteries and as this is a modern device which I think you cant kill with normal usage just extend its life (a bit).

I also had my XZ since launch, with BT always on I use about 50% during a normal working day.
Have my Z3C for about 3 weeks now, so only time will tell whether the battery lasts. However, this is not my first Sony phone and the Xperia U (about 2 years old, now being used by our son) hardly shows any degradation. Same goes with the Xperia M (1 year old) and still going like new. Adding to that, I never actually paid much attention to when or how I recharged....
Batteries don't usually go bad all at once. Instead, wearing out is more of a gradual process of not charging quite as high and discharging faster. Since this battery is so good to begin with, I would think compared to other devices you could buy right now it will last a long time.
A year from now you'll still get more life out of even an abused z3c battery than you'd get out of that undersized cell in a brand new Moto X.
