Apparently the news is so slow they don't have anything else to report on, so they must re-post old news that no one really cares about anyways!

probably not as well because there aren't a bunch of people mocking apple
or many everyone is just the same so there is nothing to argue about on this point?

I would expect handsets with larger batteries to have higher consumption (dual core CPUs, higher clock rate). The iPhone 4S has something like a 1200 or 1300 mAh battery, the GS III has I think a 1700 or 1800 mAh battery, for comparison.

But at the same time you would charge a larger battery less assuming it drains battery at the same rate. The real question we should ask is what are the operational power consumption of the devices.
