Nintendo DSi suffers from low battery life
Are you super excited about the Nintendo DSi? I was too, but I’m sorry I’m going to have to burst your bubble a little. Before you think of replacing your DS Lite with the newest baby, consider this that there is a vast difference between the battery life. DSi packs the power of something between 9 and 14 hours on the lowest brightness setting, compared to 15-19 hours for the original DS Lite on the same setting. That is extremely disappointing to say the least. Word has it that on the highest brightness setting, the new DSi lasts just half the time of the DS Lite, which is something around 3-4 hours, whereas the Lite lasted for 5-8 hours. No one is sure about why this is happening. One theory is that the DSi’s screen is 3.25 inches and the Lite is 3 inches. For such a small difference in the size, there is a vast difference in the battery life.
14 hours on single charge for DSi seems pitiful. But then again, I’m sure there will be super fun games to make up for a glitch like this.
