THL W200C Review Specifications! Giant 6″ LCD!

While the last couple weeks have been spent reviewing 1080p phones – the Zopo ZP980+ and H9008, we now have a couple of 720p offerings on the way. The first of which is the newly released THL W200C. The MT6592 THL W200C is a giant 6″ LCD phablet. While the THL T200S is 1080p, the […]

In the review it mentions that standard battery size for a 5" is around 2000mAh.
Is it extraordinarily uncommon that my S7589 (5.7") has a 3200mAh battery? Is it over-stated? Why don't these bigger phones come with a significantly larger battery as well?

[GizBeat]

There's quite a difference between 5 and 5.7. Also, it's not uncommon for the OEM brands to vastly overstate battery size.

You make some inarguable points regarding my perceptions of reality.

[GizBeat]

Well it's not to say your S7589 doesn't truly have a 3200mA battery. It's not outside the realm of possibility for a 5.7" phone to have a 3200mA. I believe the real Note 2 and Note 3 comes stock with 3200mA.

Also China brands have been getting much better with putting the true battery capacities. Not same as a couple years back.

How many hours onscreen do you get with S7589?

Finally installed GSam Battery Monitor so I could have a basis of comparison. Let it run for the past couple of days.

On this battery (Star S7589), after about 8 months of abuse, here's where I'm at.

Averages Per Complete Charge
Battery Life: 14h 11m (10h 41m Active)
Screen On: 2h 35m (1h 23m Max)

HEllo guys can u tell me if u can use this phone with gloves? can u try with different like leather or woll or other material, it's very important to me

[WuddaWaste]

I will try with whatever gloves I can find when I receive the phone. I'm pretty sure my weightlifting gloves will have no problems, but I can't speak for the rest. I'm most concerned about the boxing gloves. In either case, I will report back in a few days.

Off-topic. I did some reading regarding phones and battery life. I apparently over-charge the snotballs out of most of my phones from fear of them running out of battery. It turns out the "happy place" for a battery to live is between 50%-80%, so I try not to charge unless I'm below 50 now. As a result, here are the updated stats on my Star S7589 (5 days later):

Averages Per Complete Charge
Battery Life: 17h 57m (10h 42m Active)
Screen On: 3h 5m (2h 35m Max)
