DarlaMack reports how she has used the Nokia N95 during a day and what it did to the battery of her pink multimedia computer:

Saturday morning: charged the N95 to its fullest.

12:00 Noon: Hit the highway from where I live to Laurinburg, NC which is about a good 2 hour drive. During that time I turned on bluetooth, l listened to 2 songs. Played a lengthy 15 minute game of Scrabble, Twittered a bit. After an hour I turned the device off so that I would have enough power left for taking pics and recording videos.

2:45pm: Arrived at the Hall and powered the N95 back on. The power had only deminished by 1 bar.

3:00pm - 5:00pm: The wedding started at 3 and from that period I was taking pics and videos. Mind you, I forgot to turn off the Twitter messaging, not that messaging might not have a factor in battery life, but who knows.

5:00pm - 7:00pm: Dinner and Social hours. Took a few more pics and uploaded what I could to Flickr. I realized that Shozu didn’t upload all of the images as I took them. Before leaving I bluetoothed images that I had to other family members and sent some via MMS. At this time I had about 4 bars left.

7:45pm: Back on the road heading home. Decided to finish up that game of Scrabble that I had started earlier. 2 bars left. 20 minutes of playing Scrabble with some text messaging in between is when I received the first flash that the battery was running low. When the N95 finally powered off it was around 8:30pm.

With all the stories on the Nokia N95’s battery life this is not a real shocker, but it does give you a good impression about what to expect.
