Battery life is top so far. I have the device now for 2 weeks and did only charge twice.

The first time after I got it, and the second time last weekend (but the battery was not empty, still 20% left).

Today the battery level is still over 50%. I did use the device every day between 1 - 4 hours. The rest of the time it was in the "standby" mode, which means it is ready to use after 3 seconds.

But I also transferred new reading material, and if you connect it to USB it will also charge (but the reader was never connected for longer than 10-30 minutes every day).

In comparison to the Iliad this is a huge improvement.
