Im asking how to exit apps because i dunno how to exit internet browser...i guessing that pressing home button and leave it to be closed down on its own is sufficient enough...is that wrong?

Thanks...

Yep, that's right. It doesn't matter if you leave it open in the background, because it's not actually doing anything, and it will be killed if needed.

In my opinion surfing the web does put a lot of strain on battery of S2. Just staying online may not consume much.

One of the main reason is that the common white colour web page's put a lot of strain on that AMOLED screen of S2. (AMOLED screens consume max power when displaying white color and minimum for black.)

Basically, if your phone is just sitting in your pocket and connected to the web, it doesn't consume much energy because the screen is off. But when you're actually browsing the web, the white background you see on most web pages will cause more battery drain because the AMOLED screen uses more power to display lighter colors.

If that is the case, you should see if you can change the default background color of web pages.
