Roam battery life

The Roam is off, however battery is still draining--significantly.

I just received the Roam this week and have been using it on occasion, however I’ve noticed battery drain even when it’s “off.” I fully charged the Roam, used it to 87% (via wifi), shut it off and the next day it was down to 31%. 

If this is the performance expectation then I’m a little disappointed, and will likely be returning it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Are you sure it was powered off and not just in sleep mode - the power off is a long press on its rear power button, 5+ seconds, until you hear the power down jingle.

I switched the Roam off well over 24 hours ago and it’s battery on power-on is showing at 97%

Hi

Just added  Roam to my system ,

my wife uses it to listen to the radio overnight whilst keeping it plugged in,

yet when she uses it in the office unplugged its battery life lasts only 2 hours not the ten as advertised.

So far the purchase of the Roam instead of a second Move has seemed to be a costlymistake !!
