Extend the Life on Your Phone Battery
Are you worried about your phone's battery life? Follow these steps to extend its life.
Steps
- Figure out how much you use your phone for. If it's all day long, or if it's on from certain hours, figure out what these hours are.
- Determine when and how long it needs to be charged for. Charge it until you feel it is full, and only when battery life is below 25%~.
- Don't overcharge it. Leaving it charged all night is not always good while it may be convenient.
- Don't use battery draining features such as video and music too much. There are devices such as mp3 players and personal video players for that, because a phone was meant to be just a phone.
- Turn keypad lock on. You don't want to be accidentally triggering the buttons every once in a while.
- Keep a spare. If you are a heavy cell phone user, you might need to keep a spare battery handy. If you buy a new battery, be sure to buy from a reputable seller. Generic batteries can damage your phone and are dangerous if they leak battery acid.
