AnonD-2572, 27 Apr 2011Setting your display brightness up may eat up battery life faster. You can install Battery mon... moreIt'd be better to not use a white or bright theme or background for an OLED display.
It's true that they consume less electricity when showing dark or black colors, because pixels emit little light or no light at all, but when showing very bright or white colors they consume 2-3 times more than an LCD.
No wonder most of nokia's preloaded background pictures are taken at night or at sunset.

HIMANSHU08, 27 Apr 2011does nokia c7 suppourt fring vide calling and skype video calling? how is its quality of vide... moreFring is, as far as I know, the only app supporting video calls over 3G on the C7. I've tried it and my results are mixed, the video is ok but sometimes choppy over 3G, seems a little better over wifi. I've uninstalled mine though, cos it has an irritating habit of wanting to log on as soon as I've rebooted my phone, which I couldnt seem to fix.

john c7, 27 Apr 2011glad to hear from you dude...its been a long time. LOL.
Anyway, I think we're having the sa... moreSetting your display brightness up may eat up battery life faster. You can install Battery monitor and see what takes up most of ur battery life, for me its the display and browsing. I use a light (White) theme, and set my brightness to minimum. If i'm using a dark theme or am outdoors most of the time, i set it to no more than 50%. My C7 hasnt died within a day yet, even today when i spent more than two hours on Angry Birds Rio LOL. I guess ur using lightctrl, the extra brightness might be whats using up the battery.
Like eddman said, I would expect performance and UI improvements with Anna,and possibly increased battery efficiency too and lets hope skype gets the portrait qwerty too,btw, if you want a portrait qwerty in most apps, try the SlideIT app (I'm using the s60v5 version), but personally i find the C7's screen a little narrow for a proper portrait qwerty. I hope the Anna update brings a better designed keyboard. Btw..whose idea was Anna for the update? :)

@john c7 and Maverick75
There are rumors that Anna update (PR2.0) improves the battery life by 25%. Hope it's true.

@john c7
It'd be better to set the display at no more than 50%. Makes a lot of difference regarding battery life.

AnonD-2572, 27 Apr 2011Hi John, Yes, very much here!! :)
I've read about a few users complaining about battery li... moreglad to hear from you dude...its been a long time. LOL.
Anyway, I think we're having the same experience regarding the battery life of our C7s. I charged mine fully yesterday (same time) and now, after a few hours of gaming, messaging, a bit of wifi usage..i have 2 bars left (20%)(ps: my display is at 75%)
Another thing, I've tried downloading swype on a 5530 and it supports swype portrait qwerty..how come our symbian^3 units doesn't have this yet? One of the things I'm looking forward to on the release of Anna is the portrait qwerty, but If portrait swype comes first, I wouldn't be more excited about Anna. LOL.
About the TV out..I've tried using a 5800 cable, and it is awesome even with a 32-inch TV, but still we have to admit HDMI is really better.
