Battery Life
😢
That little emoticon about sums up how I feel about the battery life of this phone. It basically sucks.
Five hours if you're lucky with normal use. Which for me is two gmail accounts set to push. Bout 50 or so texts. Moderate web/social network usage 10 minutes for ever hour(isn't that average?)
Coulda used a few hundred more mah's in the trunk. I'll probably be returning this phone.
This phone is perfect Otherwise. Anyone else feel my pain?

My battery life is great. No problem. Too bad yours is not doing so well. Love this phone. Good luck on your next choice.

Loving it
I also didn't like its short battery life but it's not as serious as what other people are saying in this forum. 😁
It has a lot of great features and it looks beautiful. Got mine with a great plan at http://www.squidoo.com/htc-droid-dna-reviews

It's really a shame
That HTC produced this useless device. Even the new Lumia line (810, 820) have memory card slots, and windows phones were notorious for omitting that. Microsoft learned quickly.
Just based alone on the fact that this is a 16GB phone, non-removable battery, and I would be forced to use up the data that I pay for to use a cloud service, there is no way in hell I would ever even pay a single cent for this phone, which would be a money-pit.
You change those two things about this device, and it goes from the bottom of the barrel INSTANTLY to the very, very top. Above the Note II and the GS III.
This could have been *THE* flagship phone, instead, it's a tugboat.

It's strange that its sister phone the HTC Butterfly J has a sd card slot. Why would HTC omit a memory card slot on such a high end device? Is it possible the carrier would make such a request.

I personally don't see anything wrong with it. Whats the most popular single phone on the market? The iPhone. Whats the most popular storage capacity for that phone? The 16gb. What does the iPhone not have? a removable battery. Its really not that c...

No memory card slot was Verizon's decision. I can't tell you how I know that, and I have no idea what their reasoning was. But trust me, it was Verizon's call.
I can deal with not having a card slot. Only because I don't watch movies on my phone and I stream all my music with Google play.
What else would you need more than 16 Gb for really? It's clear that the carriers and manufacturers are trying to per...
