"As promised, I’ve run some long-lasting tests to find out more about the power consumption of the radio unit itself. It’s about 7.5% a day (I’ve measured it for two days; not counting in the ~2.5%/day battery life depletion needed to refresh the dynamic RAM memory) in inactive (no SIM is inserted but the radio is online and is ready to initiate emergency calls) mode. Again and again, these figures, along with the ~9% (there, not counting in the ~2%/day RAM refreshing-related depletion either) of Universal, are relative (show how the power consumption of these devices’ radio compares) and only show how they fare at a given geographical location. That is, they can ONLY be used to compare each device’s being power-hungry, NOT as an absolute result as “your device will consume that much power a day in YOUR home”."It's always interesting to see just how much of a power hog your device is, and Menneisyys isn't one to just take subjective judgments like "It eats power like crazy" as enough evidence to support his claims. Check out his new power consumption tests to see for yourself.
