One of the biggest issues with the iPhone is its battery life. Most 3G iPhone users have to charge their phones at least once a day.
Will the Palm Pre, the upcoming highly anticipated touchscreen phone from Palm, be any different?
The Pre could have a 1150mAh battery, similar to that of the Palm Centro, says TreoCentral. That compares to iPhone's 1400mAh battery and T-Mobile HTC G1's 1150mAh lithium ion battery. Palm representatives declined to comment about the battery.
We will have to wait and see whether the battery life on the Pre could be lower than its peers and how the device handles power consumption. The upside is that because the battery is removable, it can be easily replaced.
Meanwhile, other reports suggest that the Pre may be available exclusively at Best Buy in addition to Palm stores nationwide.
