phone.

The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery.

Got a new phone and don’t want to lose your photos, videos, and other important stuff you have on your old phone? There are nifty ways to transfer content to your new phone.
