Xperia P Battery

I´m just wondering why Sony decided to go with a 1305 mAh battery in the Xperia P. Can someone tell me the reason for that? Are there any technical or space limitations in this phone i´m not aware of?
Even the HTC Desire has a 1400 mAh battery altough it was announced exactly two years before Xperia P. I would have loved to buy this phone but as the battery is quiet low compared to other phones, which still last not nearly as long as i´d call it ok, i seriously doubt that i´m going to buy it unless someone told me a really good reason why they decided to stick with a battery which is low like that.

I am looking to buy this phone. Seems the battery is not good on this phone on most of the reviews.

Guys, who is using this phone please tell the backup backup life on this phone be truth?

I will use this phone for mostly browsing with 2G and sometime 3G and will some apps (like FC, Gtalk, antovirus and some other apps) and how long the battery backup will stand?

it wont last that long, and antivirus are a bad idea, you don't need it, and they create a lot of issues

I just bought the Xperia P and i have FB, yahoomsn, WhattsApp running,i used the browser surfing a little, had like 15min calls watched some videos on youtube, Sync off and it lasted for me for 11hours/wifi all the time at home, and while being out 3g all the time (used the camera outside). With the time it will get better they say, and my Xperia neo didnt lasted (the battery) more than that.

Does using Go Power Master help? Was just planning to give it a shot. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gau.go.launcherex.gowidget.gopowermaster&hl=en
