It is a few years old now, but wasn't much better new...and it sounds like they haven't got better since! I don't have any apps on either, just whatever came with the phone.
Tom its perfectly understandable... if you strapped a laptop battery to the back of your phone I'm sure it would last for a week. The phone battery is small and light so you can fit it in your pocket. It wouldnt be as usable if it was 3 times as big but lasted 3 days!
Anyway I leave mine on charge overnight and its plugged into the car whenever im in the car. It lasts a decent amount of time imo for what it does. Screen brightness and GPS are the main killers!
