I believe what you're seeing, but would like to have some numbers... Total time on battery power, % and "keep awake" from Aqua.
Common reasons for high battery use:
- Slow network (GPRS or EDGE, naturally)
- Frequent network disconnects and/or switching (mobile / WiFi)
- Large number of accounts / folders set to sync
- Large number of accounts / folders in push mail (more than 3-5 is potentially trouble territory)
- Large "messages to sync" settings (per account, default is 25... 250 is sort of ok still, but say 1000, on mobile can be too much...)
- Short mail sync interval (default is every 15 minutes)
And then you have "combos", for example: mail sync interval at 5 minutes, and "messages to sync" at 1000, in say 5 accounts having 5 folders each.....
Could be something on my side too, of course -- but just wanted to give you some ideas for things to check.
