under T68. It says:
So basically if you want 8 weeks of battery life with 30 minutes of reading daily it means you have to keep your device off 98% of the time. Or if you just want to be sure that device won't be empty after few hours. Other readers advertising 8 weeks of battery life can be in sleep mode during 98% of their time.
There is a setting(default on) in T68 that will turn the device off automatically after use. But that still means you have to boot the device, then enter the app that you want to use each time you want to use the device.
I've been looking for a way to get the device running without need to turn it off and without risk of it being empty after just few hours here, in my threat... And after weeks of trying everything I'm pretty confident that turning off the device is the only way to get reliable battery life. I've been monitoring the battery usage using many apks and nothing notices anything suspicious, so the device just has very poor energy management. |
Like with every device on standby it discharches quicker than the one that is turned off completely. Please check how you phone, tablet or a laptop works on standby mode and while turned off.
We always communicate that e-book readers can last UP TO 8 weeks (up to 10 000 page turns), but also inform that actual battery life may vary and depends on usage and other factors.
