l would like to know this too, I had it disabled but today I received my new S-pen (full size) for the Note 10.1 and in order to use, I have to have the original smaller pen pulled out to use the new one.
Hopefully it wont make a huge difference.
it can help to preserve some extra battery life, but not much.
is it noticeable?

Can't say I've noticed a big change since changing the setting but I've always for the past 5-6 (whenever they started using lithium ion batteries that do not have the memory effect) years been charging my device overnight.
I still get a days heavy use out of it too.
Hey XDA community,
I have had a Black Nexus 5 for some time now. Unfortunately I'll perhaps buy a new Nexus new because mine broke.
Should I go with the Black (Which I previously had) version or the Red version? I don't know what to choose really since I've heard good and bad things about the red version..
Thanks in advance!
well, as a phone, they are exactly identical. i guess the only differences would be the color and the rubbery feeling the black phone has on the backside.

And about the battery life? Only a custom kernel can improve that really, right?

battery life.. battery life is mostly about how you personally use your device, how you personally set it up, what apps you install, and, mostly, the quality of your data/phone connection. everything else is minor. for kernels, you can have one person that says that they have great battery, and another that says opposite.

Yeah but the battery life on the N5 is quite bad. I can't get a day out of it sometimes :/
Well let's wait for 4.4.3 I guess..

I've seen some reviews about the red version. They say it's not quite red. It's like a very bright red/orange-y version. Is that true? (I can't assess that myself because in youtube reviews, cameras interfere with colours)
If I could redo, I would buy red. I still don't understand why they won't let you have alt colors for the front of the nexus instead of just black (ew)
I'd totally go for red, if I was buying it now.
I like the red its very bright close to an orange but I love it.

The red definitely does look almost like a neon-orangeish/red (to me at least, it's what I own), it's undoubtedly eye-catching. Depends on whether or not you think that's a good thing. Haha
I have a lot of troubles with my battery on my d850...
Like after 15 minutes of 10%bright and wifi just reading blogs, my battery on 100% got 96 %
I have a lot of problems some one can help me? I want to flash 10H or something like that on mu phone to get better battery life
Or some tips and tricks, what if i flash again my 10d to unroot and start on 0?
You can't flash any updates from the other variants. Wait until the bootloader gets unlocked so you can flash a few roms/updates/etc. Until then, we have to wait for att to push out an ota.
What a cruel world...
My battery life has been solid on this thing.

Or buy a 10,000 mA backup Anker battery from amazon (25.00 USD) and when your battery runs low plus the USB to phone and press the button. I have that, and extra battery, battery life is the last thing i worry about lol

I've had that battery pack for a couple of years. It's excellent.
I am noticing a fair amount of battery drain though. I'm guessing it's the ridiculously high resolution screen.

That is 100% correct. QHD/2k screen was not needed and is the BIGGEST battery hog for this phone. Its a shame, this phone could have been the perfect device, but as strange as it sounds, the screen is just too good and came to soon.
It is a shame. I was getting significantly better battery life on my Oneplus.
Out of curiosity, what are people doing to increase battery life beyond things like lowering brightness, turning off wifi, bluetooth, etc. . . .

So was I on my one plus. Screen just kills the battery significantly to the point where I'm kinda sick of it and the lack of Roms. I just ordered a Z3 good by LG...see you guys on the flip side.

If roms drop this weekend like you predicted, will you cancel the order?

That's where this bad boy comes in... http://www.amazon.com/Warranty-Zero...id=1414210434&sr=8-1&keywords=LG+G3+zerolemon :highfive:
Mine's on the way but I've purchased two batteries from them for a Note 2 and Note 3. Both were stellar.
Here's some discussion on the G3 battery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/accessories/lg-g3-zerolemon-t2887095

Known problem look if your battery is curved or blown up than you probably need a new battery!

Battery life is still excellent.
Totally agree, battery life is less decent... Still interesting but decrease faster than previous build.
Normal usage comparaison based onmyown experience.
