Battery Standby and Talk Time
Battery Standby and Talk Time
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone usage patterns and
conditions. Battery power consumption depends on factors such as network
configuration, signal strength, operating temperature, features selected,
frequency of calls, and voice, data, and other application usage patterns.
Battery Precautions
• Avoid dropping the cell phone. Dropping it, especially on a hard
surface, can potentially cause damage to the phone and battery. If
you suspect damage to the phone or battery, take it to a service
center for inspection.
• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.
• Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
• If you use the phone near the network's base station, it uses less
power; talk and standby time are greatly affected by the signal
strength on the cellular network and the parameters set by the
network operator.
• Follow battery usage, storage and charging guidelines found in the
user’s guide.
• Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge and
the type of battery and charger used. The battery can be charged
and discharged hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out.
When the operation time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably
shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
