The new network uses the latest technology and does not in itself affect battery life . Battery life in your device will depend mostly on usage and screen size You should note though that if you are making many calls, using multiple applications that use the device?s CPU heavily (example some screen savers or games,), or using the Internet a lot, battery life may be reduced. Battery life can be increased by closing or limiting the number of active applications, and by turning off Wifi, and Bluetooth when not in use.
