I bought this cell around 6 months back, from day one itself I experienced bad battery backup problem. After 100% recharge I could use it for max 14 hrs (without incoming-outgoing calls). Cell has an option to check the utilization of battery back up, here it used to show that "Phone idle" has consumed around 60-80% of battery use.
Now the battery doesn’t even last for 8 hrs (even without calling anyone). If I turn on my wi-fi or internet it further comes down by 50%.
I went to Sony service center 3 times, but they were not ready to accept the battery problem. I also spoke to few of my friends & customers who were in Sony service center they also suffered from similar problem. Now I carry charger along with me wherever I go, Coz I need to charge it once in 6-8 hrs.
In short even though the product, its features, options, camera clarity are all exceptionally good, because of weak battery backup & bad service from Sony service centers (I have visited 3 times with bill – but they were never supportive), I suggest no one to buy.
