Top 10 Smartphones With The Longest Battery Life Read more: http://www.gizmocrazed.com/2012/06/top-10-smartphone-with-the-longest-battery-life/#ixzz1xCjUb6FD

Battery is one of the most crucial part of a smartphone, and can seriously let down a top-class smartphone. Consumers these days are more attracted with those phones, which are capable of going through a day of moderate use. Smartphone manufacturers such as Sony,HTC, Samsung and Motorola seem to be the first ones paying attention to this major problems having recently churned out a lot of phones with batteries which can keep up.

1. Motorola Droid Razr Maxx

Motorola Droid Razr Maxx, the bigger brother of the Droid Razr, is easily the top smartphone in the market when compared battery wise. Containing a monstrous 3300 mAh battery, this phone can easily get you through a couple of days on moderate usage. It has got nearly a day of talk time, 20 hours and 24 minutes to be exact, which is just incomparable and is almost 8 hours ahead of the 2nd smartphone with the best battery life. While the browsing time is also a big 7:23.

2. Samsung Galaxy Note

The big 5.3 inch-screen phablet by Samsung is no slouch in battery performance. Despite a gigantic screen, it also has a giant battery: 2500 mAh. The big battery is enough to power up the huge-phone, as well as giving it excellent battery performance with 12 hours and 14 min of talktime, though it was a bit marred by abysmal performance in the browsing area because of the gigantic screen, only 3 hours and 35 minutes.

3. HTC One X (AT&T Version)

The LTE-version of HTC One X managed it very well with it’s medium-sized 1800 mAh battery. The Snapdragon S4 processors used in this seems to be a lot more power-efficient than the Tegra 3 one used in the international version. This smartphone got 10 hours and 35 mins of talktime and a moderate 5 hours and 35 minutes of continuous browsing.

4. Samsung Galaxy S III

The new-king of Android smartphone, Samsung Galaxy S III, which was released last month is almost the perfect smartphone, including an excellent 2100 mAh battery. Despite a huge 4.8 inch screen, a quad-core processor and some other capabilities, the S III still touts a talk time of 10:20 as compared to 5 hours and 17 minutes of browsing.

5. HTC One V

Despite being the underdog in the One family, the HTC One V fairs a lot better than the other “Ones”. With a mild-1500 mAh battery, the HTC One V can give up to exactly 10 hours of talktime. While the One V has an excellent browsing time of 6 hours and 49 minutes.

6. HTC One X (International Version)

The international Tegra 3-version of the HTC One X isn’t bad after all. With the same 1800 mAh battery, it is just a few paces below it’s AT&T-specific brother. The One X can give you up to 9 hours and 57 minutes of talk time and 4 hours and 18 minutes of continuous browsing.

7. HTC One S

The best competitor of the One X(excluding the Galaxy S III) is none other than HTC’s own One S. It has a 1650 mAh battery, which can deliver a solid 9 hours and 42 minutes of talk time while the browsing time is is 4 hours and 3 minutes.

8. Samsung Galaxy R

The medium-speced Galaxy R by Samsung managed to prop-up for the 8th best phone with the longest battery life. The Samsung Galaxy R has a moderate 1650 mAh battery. The Galaxy R can easily deliver 9 hours and 40 minutes of talk time and a maximum browsing time of 5 hours and 7 minutes.

9. HTC Sensation XL

The Beats audio touting smartphone, HTC Sensation XL has got a 1600 mAh battery, compelling it to give a talk time of 9 hours and 30 minutes and a browsing time of 5 hours and 20 minutes.

10. Nokia Lumia 710

The Nokia Lumia 710 managed to become the first Windows Phone smartphone to be in the top 10 smartphones with the longest battery life despite it’s small, 1300 mAh battery. It gave a good 9 hours and 5 minutes of talk time and 3 hours and 51 minutes of continuous browsing.

WARNING!! Anal Penetrating Chair Kills Teen

A fourteen-year old boy in China was killed when a chair he was sitting in exploded. Chunks of metal pierced the boy’s rectum resulting in extensive and fatal bleeding.

This is not the first time such a thing has happened, but it is the first fatality.

The boy was alone when the accident occurred, sitting on his computer chair. Bravely, he managed to make one last phone call to his father despite being in horrific pain. An ambulance was immediately summoned, but it took an hour to get him to the hospital and he died enroute.

The “killer chair” was a common gas-cylinder-based chair the height of which can be altered via a cylinder located at the base of the chair, which contains highly pressurized gas.

Allegedly, energy created by the seat cushion caused the explosion.

The fact that three similar incidents were reported at a hospital in the last month alone, suggests an influx of malfunctioning chairs. Back in 2007, such a chair propelled a metal part into the rear of a 68-year-old man, who suffered a severe wound but survived.

In all of the incidents three factors were implicated:

• Non-nitrogenous gases contaminated the cylinder of the chair.

• Deficient materials in the cylinder reduced the durability of the part.

• The cylinder was not completely airtight.

Although oil-based hydraulic devices are said to be safer, most such chairs on the market today use gas cylinders and the majority of them come from China.

So all you computer workers with adjustable height chairs better watch your butt…

Parents Allow Four-year-old Child to Drive Car!

In Jinan, Shandong Province, China, the driver are getting younger and younger, much to the chagrin of the police.

Authorities are unable to act legally against the parents of a four-year-old girl whose parents made a video of her driving “adventure,” as she traveled along the highway in front of horrified passing drivers and pedestrians. 

 For two terrifying minutes, the little girl was at the wheel driving at speed and even overtaking several vehicles while the parents kept reminding her to concentrate.

The child’s father sat behind her sans safety belt and her mother was in the passenger seat.

Our little lady of the road made at least one potentially dangerous error. (Of course, how many does a fatal accident require?) She lined up for a traffic light in the wrong lane. She did, however, within a few breathless seconds manage to maneuver the vehicle into the correct lane.

The parents had adjusted both the brake and the accelerator pedals so that their tiny daughter could reach them.

Children are not allowed to drive in China, but according to the law, tickets cannot be issued to children under 14 years of age.

The most the police could do is educate the parents and hope that they would compensate any injured parties should an accident occur.

On the other hand, maybe letting children drive is an innovative approach to controlling the over-population in China!

Go figure.
