I own one of these, and someday when it finally works with my wireless carrier I might find out if it's as nice as they say. Standby time appears to be ~3 days with no use, but I have not measured it rigorously. It does have wifi and bluetooth sonic suppose they could add hotspot capability.

That's not great, specially if you're not connecting it to the cell network.

We had a Nexus 4, IIRC, for our on call sysadmins, that would be always connected to the network but mostly sleeping, as it only was waiting for push notifications. It lasted around 4 or 5 days without charging! No software installed except for Pushover, of course.
