I have a Samsung YP-T9JBCB (8gb, Bluetooth). The specified battery life is 30 hours w/o but actually run at about 19-25 hrs w/o BT. With BT, it runs at 7-13 hrs. Expect 45% of the non BT life. BT uses less power than WiFi.

There is no need for battery use if you have 3.5mm cord hooked up. They only use battery if you are in bluetooth mode. TERRENCE

It lasts around 8 hours bluetooth maxed out. if plugged directly into the ion and volume isnt all the way up itll go longer. but not 50 hours. I dont think there is anything that lasts 50 hours with bluetooth

It uses a button battery, I have owned it for almost a year and use it all the time without major issue. It uses the ultra lower power consumption bluetooth transceiver so I wouldn't worry about battery life. It is not rechargeable though, you have to buy a new one when it dies.

It depends on the volume you use it; having said that I use it at 90% volume whilst watching movies and I can say that my iPad runs out of battery before the speaker so that would be around 6 to 7hrs of play using bluetooth.

The range is going to be typical for a Bluetooth device -- maybe around 30 feet. You can even walk into a different room, but any obstructions will shorten the distance. As far as battery life, I believe it is 3-4 hours.

I only use the bluetooth connection and I would say my battery has never ran out while I have used it. My speaker is amazing. If I was guessing I would say something is wrong with yours.

I am generally using for listening to music while working, and I am pretty satisfied with battery life. Continuous use various between 3-5 hours, but the you can always plug it in and continue using it.

some people are saying u can't but i never used mine without bluetooth. Meaning even when it's connected by usb my bluetooth is still on

I have experienced this with 'pairing' in general. For whatever reason, a weak battery or charge tends to complicate the pairing process. I have just accepted the fact that Bluetooth is a finicky technology.

I seem to get 3 to 4 hours of battery life out of it. My problem is that the Bluetooth signal can get spotty if something gets in the way of your computer or phone. It's decent for the price but not sure that I would buy it again.

Once connected, I've had no problems with the bluetooth. It has been somewhat finicky on the initial connection (sometimes requiring power down, slow connection, etc.), but has always worked.

The only way I use it is my phone, you have to turn on your bluetooth, sorry I couldn't answer your question!

its great 4 me! Just make sure u turn it off by hand and dont leave it on standby. I did that once and it died. I've charged it a few times. I use it @ work only and my battery life was only 1 bar down after 7 hrs. All i do is listen to music i dont know if it drains faster doing other things. Hope this helps.

Actually its strictly a blue tooth device. Mine was horrible and didnt last at all for battery life. Would cut out on the shortest workouts. It has since been replaced by a much better unit. I would send it back if I could. Save yourself the disappointment
