Battery
Your phone uses a rechargeable battery. How long the battery can last before it needs
recharging depends on how you use your phone.The features and accessories you use
can affect battery life. For example, leaving your Bluetooth® connection always on
uses more power. Long phone calls and frequent web browsing use up a lot of battery
power. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from your mobile network
and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.
