Wow that's amazing battery life. Mine is not nearly that good, but I keep wi-fi on, for no particular reason either, so kinda silly of me not to think to turn it off. Mine drains a fair bit overnight not even using it. I'm going to turn wi-fi off and see how much it improves. Did you make any changes- such as turning off apps so they aren't running in the background?

I do have a fair bit of games on mine which (annoyingly) update constantly it seems. I did recently turn off auto update, but it didn't seem to help the battery life really.
