Apple iPad Battery – How Long Will It Live?

10 hours of battery life is all what the Apple IPAD battery promises. What this means is – If you are able to charge the Apple IPAD for hours, you could use for 10 hours at a stretch to either see, or send/receive emails, browse the Internet or even watch the videos. But surely that is not the matter of interest for anyone when they talk about IPAD Batteries. The question on everyone’s mind is – How long would these batteries live and if they don’t live all that long, does have Apple have a policy?

Actually here, you would find IPADS getting almost the same treatment as IPHONES. Just the same way how IPHONE manufacturing companies offer a battery replacement service, the IPAD too offers one for its customers. The battery replacement service for Apple IPADS, is clear – If your IPAD hasn’t been damaged by any of these – liquid contact, or physical damage – You could get the batteries replaced and in fact, you would get a brand new IPAD device in itself. This is where the IPAD works slightly differently than the IPHONE.

Of course, this does come with a cost attached. For example, you would have to pay $99 extra plus $6.95 for the shipping and any additional local taxes to get the new IPAD device with new batteries of course. So much for the battery replacement service, which actually ensures you get a new IPAD device, but do you know how much would your IPAD’s battery last for, if you used your IPAD for specific tasks?

Here is a quick breakdown of some tasks you would normally do with your IPAD and the time the battery would last

Continuous Music Playback – 140 hours

Browsing the Internet – 10 hours

The thing with the 140 hours of continuous playback feature is that the screen display should be turned off. If the screen display is turned on, the battery life would probably come down by some hours.

In any case, should you feel your battery is not performing to the levels it was expected to, you could always ship it across to Apple and get a brand new IPAD with of course, a new battery too. You may have to pay a small additional amount of $99 + shipping charges + taxes, but this is a small amount to pay for to get a classy and working IPAD, which has full battery life from the time you receive it in your hands.

    can the apple Ipad be used as a router as well? If so how can this be done?

  3. iPadGuy says:

    Thats a good question. You can’t right out of the box but if you jailbroke it maybe possible. But what are you going to route? You could route between the bluetooth interface and the wireless interface, or wireless and 3g…

    theoretically it is possible because the underlying operating system is unix. Sounds like a good idea for an app?

    Thanks for your comment!
