PC World writes: "The battery life on Apple's new 3G iPhone isn't great, but it beats that of other 3G smartphones we've seen. PC World's Test Center ran it through our standard talk-time battery life test, and found that on average it ran 5 hours and 38 minutes, which we consider to be fair.
That's a big tumble from the superior performance of the original iPhone, which ran on AT&T's slower EDGE network and lasted the maximum 10 hours of our test. But the 3G iPhone beat out the rest of the current 3G smartphone pack, most of which fell shy of the 5-hour mark that's the cutoff between a word score of fair and poor in our performance ratings."

Let see you can set up the Iphone to use all 3 network types.
2G for voice calls, and 3G for data, and Wifi for DATA.
You can use voice and data at the same time. Show me another phone that will do that?
5 hours of 3G time is good enough for most people.
10 hours of 2G time is better than anybody
and I think the wifi time is around 7 hours.
Has anybody played super monkey ball and checked to see how long the Iphone 3g will last on battery time?
I heard some people are having battery problems ever since they updated to 2.0 hopefully apple will fix that problem, ive turned off the push feature on my phone to save more battery and cut off 3G when im not using it.
I got one on Friday morning and so far I've been pretty impressed by the battery life. On Friday and Saturday I spent a significant amount of time playing with it, downloading and trying apps and such all while on WiFi. Under these conditions I was able to drain a lot of the battery during the course of the day, but I'm talking about really heavy use. Yesterday I used it more like I would on a regular day: a few calls, used several apps, took pictures, checked email etc. and at the end of the day I still had 60-70% of my battery. Considering what iPhone 3G can do I think the battery life is actually quite remarkable.
