battery life
of the device.
I also wanted to note that the
Battery Usage screen reports the relative percentage of power used by each app for a period of time, even though the total battery consumption may be minimal — and only updates infrequently, not in real time.

The impressive 2800 mAh
battery and optimization
of power
consumption in BlackBerry 10 gives users more than a full day
of productive usage.
As for Intel's Oak Trail - based Atom CPUs, the reason for it to be not in the scheme
of things is its higher price and power
consumption leading to higher priced tablet PCs but with below par
battery performance.
But if you think about the power
consumption of the screens that are out now [on tablets], they're very bright OLED screens that use up a lot
of the power
of the
battery.
Tweaking energy
consumption to its absolute minimum, the jetBook mini now runs on 4 AAA

Activate the Ultra Power Saving mode which reduces
consumption of battery power by disabling unnecessary functions so your phone can run for longer durations without draining out.
Also due to lack
of a spare
battery and epileptic power supply over here, I haven't really been able to test the
battery consumption on the BlackBerry Curve 3G with BlackBerry OS 6.0.0.706 but it seems to be doing pretty well
It's difficult to compare power
consumption of these two gadgets since they feature completely different hardware and software, but the fact that the PlayBook's
battery has more than three times the capacity
of its longest - performing smartphone bodes well for BlackBerry tablet life.
The extremely low power
consumption of eInk is nice, but doubt if it is as important
of a concern as having a color display and tablets do have very good
battery life considering.
What's more, as well as suffering from rapid
battery drain, an issue that is unsurprisingly rapidly accelerated when making use
of app - based games or multimedia
consumption, the Google Nexus 4 is less than speedy to recharge.
2
Battery power
consumption depends on factors such as network configuration, signal strength, operating temperature, features selected, vibrate mode, backlight settings, browser use, and frequency
of data and other application usage patterns.
The result will be the right amount
of CPU horsepower when you need it, based upon load — and really no impact to
battery life or power
consumption.
Lest also not forget that the power
consumption of these devices is orders
of magnitude less than ordinary electronics, making the
batteries last correspondingly longer.
«Although Apple now holds the vast majority
of tablet PC market share,» Jacobs added, «the plethora
of other brands that have, or will soon be launching, their own tablets are sure to capitalize on what at this point appears to be widespread consumer demand for very thin and very light devices with exceptional
battery life and a primary focus on portability and content
consumption.»
