Airplane mode is not fair. After all, "dumb" phones last for many days even without airplane mode, as long as you don't over use them. The fair test is this: how long will it last when used as if it were a dumb phone. Answer: pretty good, but much less than an actual dumb phone.

- marvy 12y agoThat's because they typically don't check mail, at least not in the background. That's fine. Turn off the mail check feature of the smart phone. Now will it last as long as the dumb one? Not quite. I would know, since I do have that feature turned off. As well as location tracking.
