Hi everyone,

I bought a Likebook Mars few days ago, I must say I really like this device. Nevertheless I'm concerned about the battery life of it:

When I'm using it with WiFi activated and browsing the web, the battery loses 20% in less than an hour... Is that normal, as the device is completely new?
When I compare it to my android phone, I do get much more time on screen with my phone than with the Mars, and both devices have similar battery capacity. I was thinking that the e-ink screen technology would save a lot of hours on screen, compared to a normal lcd screen device.

I do need to decide in the next 5 days, if I want to keep my Likebook Mars or returned it.
Thank you for your help!
