Curious what others are seeing for battery life when on the phone - one of mine cut out after 2.25 and the other was at 8%, so i tossed the drain one back in the case quick and got back up to 33% in a few minutes, then swapped out the other one before it died. Thank goodness they charge dang fast.

I think for music I'm getting much longer, though haven't been paying as much attention.

It's around 2 hours for phone calls, and about 5 hours for music/movies etc (where the microphone isn't on).
 
Okay, so that's normal. Make sense since its probably doing a lot more sending data, but hadn't seen what one should expect. Thanks!

WilliamG is fairly accurate. I would say approximately 2.5 hours for calls.
