  • Shame the solution to phones that don't last a day is more options to recharge, not work to make the existing battery last longer. I've gone back to a Nokia bar phone and get more than 5 days out of it.

    put on charge now, oddly, they said no charging of them in the shop yet. but enuf stock to swap new ones out for flat ones.

    my 2 are only just over half charged tho as new as expected. not fully charged.

    Over on hotukdeals, they are saying that this power charger is not actually free, but it's just a rental for 18 months
    :(

    I wonder how that will work for those on PAYG?

    Nothing for me and I texted at 08:15. By the time I get the text and go to store they would have all gone, so given up.
    Thanks ee-eeek :T

    No reply yet, texted about 30min ago. If I manage to get the toy by end of today I'll be surprised, but I'm hopeful I'll get there eventually.
    Though it's kind of nonsense: they make new phones thinner and lighter for what? If then you have to carry extra juice with you on a separate device just to make it through the day?!
