Guys, I need to know what the normal battery runtime of the tablet is, before I decide to return it. I always have about 25% brightness, wifi always on(on during sleep only when plugged in), and use it throughout the day mostly for watching shows and playing CoC. What would the normal runtime be guys? I'm getting less than a day.

Woah 2-3 days? Heavy use? Would you count watching movies and playing clash of clans as heavy use? It's really weird. Continuously doing these I would get about 5 hours. Don't know if this is normal or plain bad

My wife and I use hers for Plex and she gets about a full day out of hers, with her playing android games off and on all day too.

Dang, is that like, continuously watching videos/movies for more than 7 hours? Cause I get about 4-5 hours on a full charge.

We watch one or two movies a day, the majority of the time, weekends, we watch alot more then two movies a day and it seams like by the end of the day we have to charge it back up. I think she has her display lighting set to 50% as well.

I set mine at 25% and can do the same as you do within the same period of time. Definitely something wrong with mine
