Battery vs apps?

[skrble]

Hi all,

I'm seriously thinking about Sola to buy, but there is still one thing, that tells me to rather wait for answer:

I've asked to some owner of this phone to measure for me the battery life. His result (1% per 6 minutes of mid-brightness) is for me great, but he also told me about one interesting problem: when he installed game (HillClimb), battery suddenly started to drain extremely fast - about 1% per minute. Is this normal on Android, or some special "feature" of this phone? Have you met this problem yet?

Thanks and please excuse my english level

regards, skrble

Okey... But last question - why also P? I've read, that last FW for Xperia P (Jellybean) is quite good... So how is it in real?

I've no experience with xperia p and it's firmware, so you'll have to ask in the p forum. at a glance, I see similar problems (and similar lack of replies from sony) in that forum, although it's less than for sola.

for me it's pretty simple : any company pushing new models to market on a monthly basis cannot support them all, unless the hardware is really similar. which in sony's case it isn't.

ultimately it's your decision. I'll never buy sony again, and regret having ever bought a sola.
