BlackBerry PlayBook’s battery touted to last all day
At a recent BlackBerry event in Boston, Ryan Bidan, the Senior Product Lead of RIM kept on repeating to the audience that they would not have to worry about the tablet’s battery life. Their goal is to officially get 8 hours or about a full day of use. And to ease their troubles, the BlackBerry PlayBook packs a massive 5,300mAh battery to keep it juiced. The iPad has set the standard for battery life at 10 hours, and the PlayBook would do well to match it or at least come close. With its huge battery, a smaller display and a dual-core processor, the device shouldn’t have too much of a problem – but I guess we’ll have to wait to get our hands on the device before we can say for sure.
