I have no impression of the battery life as of yet. I'm still setting things up so the USB cable is connected a lot which results in 100% battery. Either way I'm not too concerned - there have been firmware-related battery drain issues in the past, so if there is indeed a software issue, it'll be fixed eventually.

If you expect "weeks of battery life", so far none of my readers managed to pull that off. Not while in active use. Also I use a comfortable font size setting so I flip pages more often than people who enjoy tiny fonts. So whatever my battery life will be, it probably can't be compared to someone else's.

The battery max capacity is around 1400mAh (as shown in the pictures attached to the first post of this thread). The device could fit a much larger battery, but weight is important too. There's only so much it can do. Plus the device has bluetooth now, if enabled that would be another battery drain.

In the end it has a charging port that needs to be used regularly, there is no way around that, unless you add solar panels I guess...
