The iPhone will feature up to 8 hours of talk time, 6 hours of Internet use, 7 hours of video playback or 24 hours of audio playback, and last but not least up to 250 hours of standby time.
As for other mobile phones, one will have to ensure that such claimed battery lifetimes will effectively translate into true value when ending up in end-user’s hands. The iPhone performs better than the iPod 5G for video playback, and is as good as the iPod nano for audio playback.
For sure, criticisms about purported short iPhone battery lifetime will have to find another angle to attack Apple-branded mobile phone.
