The latest version of Android, version 2.2, finally became available for us Sprint HTC Evo owners.

The battery life with light usage used to be about 6 hours with Android 2.1 (light usage being listening to music 50% of the time and an occasional web page browse).

However, now that the update to Android 2.2 has emerged, battery life is a little better. I’m getting about 9 hours of life with the same amount of usage.

You’ll still want to charge your phone a little before the end of the work day, but it’s a lot better than before.

Sure, I know the battery life on these things could be better, but it’s just so awesome that I don’t care. Also, I work on a computer with spare USB ports so this is not a big deal whatsoever.

And you iPhone 4 diehards, you can still go to hell. Why is the HTC Evo better than the iPhone? I can drag and drop MP3′s to the phone, from any PC in the world, without installing any shitty software, and have it play like a charm.
