When introduce a new phone to the market, usually they will write:
Idle time upto xx hours
talk time upto yy hours
music playback time upto zz hours.
web browsing upto aa hours.
How about blaze? what is the typical setting/usage that can last for five days?

Mine usually lasts about 5 days, but I do not really interact with it much so I do not use the battery much more than by it simply running. The more you interact with it the faster it will run down. There is really no way of giving an average as everyone uses theirs differently. Phone use is a lot more predictable.

I don't know how much direct testing, I get 4.5-5 days, with about 3 - 4 hours of GPS use. notification turned on for multiple apps, quuick view enabled.
As for my phone, it never lasts as advertised.
The Charge 2 is giving me 6-6.5 days every thing turned on and several walks with gps.

Hi @MarvinC and welcome to the forum. I agree with what @Rich_Laue and @SunsetRunner have said. The average is about 4 days. I use GPS about 3 days/ week. I also have app notification including my work email synced up. I would however, suggest that, you let the battery drain almost all the way to less than 10% left before charging it. And when you charge it, as soon as it's fully charged (100%), which takes about 2 hrs, then disconnect it.
The reason i am saying this is, i did a month long test where i constantly charged it every time the battery was around 50%; verses letting it drain all the way. What i found was, when i constanty charged it; after about 2-3 days of my normal use, the battery was under 20%. Just an FYI.

Great to see you in the Community @MarvinC. @SunsetRunner, @Rich_Laue and @Kosnick thanks for stopping by and the information provided.
My tracker's battery lasts 7 days, I don't really use it that much. I only sync it when it is necessary or wear it while being on a game. But if you want to receive notifications or make use of the other features, your tracker's battery should last up to 5 days.
Catch you later.
