Thanks for that information. Didn't know the S6 was being updated already.

Same here. In fact I drive about 30 min a day commuting and that keeps it charged enough so I only need the home charger on weekends.

I primarily use my S5 with a bluetooth headset for phone calls, and can easily last more than a day on the battery.

However, if you are using an app that requires the screen stay on then the normal rules for battery go out the window.

A phone spends most of its day with that large screen off. IF you are on a long phone call, it will simply go black after a while.

I use Waze, which is a great GPS maping program. It replaces my GPS for sure, and wile I do love it, it makes the screen stay on all the time like a GPS screen.

Because of this, the battery does show a great deal more depletion than without this app.

By the way, what is this lollypop being discussed?
