WARNING: Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion

Battery Capacity

Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 4.45 hours of continuous digital talk time and 300 hours of standby time.

When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks. When there are approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then turns off.

Note: Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate

mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the battery’s talk and standby times.

Tip: Watch your phone’s battery level indicator and charge the

battery before it runs out of power.

Charging the Battery

Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If your battery level becomes too low, your phone automatically turns off, and you will lose any information you were just working on.

Always use a Boost-approved or Samsung-approved desktop charger, travel charger, or vehicle power adapter to charge your battery.

charger jack and the other end into an electrical outlet.
