Before Firmware 4.3, I use to have the battery get drain real fast fully charge, but then I got the newer firmware and all of a sudden I had a noticible longer battery life since. And I asked other owners of the 3DS and they said that they've been noticing the same thing too, but they thought it was just them. If you play the 3DS with pre-install firmware fully charged and then do an update and play the same exact game again fully recharge, then you will notice a difference in battery life. I use to hardly use my 3DS outside of StreetPass in Sleep Mode because it use to get drain quick, but now I can waste away and still have enough power to last in Sleep Mode with the Wireless ON 24/7 for StreetPass with enough time to get back home and plug into charger before the Battery runs out to insure that I will never miss out on StreetPassing with people within 98.X feet of me. |
Battery life changes makes sense. That goes along with simply improving the operating system. The faster CPU however is hogwash regardless of what you experience.
