Battery performance
The standby time will be affected by system
environment, system setting, service test, taking photos and
using data service.
Calling or opening a backlight will consume more power
than standby and standby time will shorten.
The standby time of no service area will be short than
the normal standby time.
The battery performance will change with the charging
status, temperature, local network as well as the
background light status.
6000mAh(Standard Battery)
Standby Time* About 600 hours
Talking Time* About 9 hours
More accurate time will depend on the local network
![](/html/c1/c1d9/c1d9c8b4b17ad1e558263002c5f740959b99d06e28fa6c61b2abc8f0f6ba236e/bg19.png)
status, using conditions and equipment card.
Charging:
Insert the charger into the charger port of the
equipment.
Insert the charger into the power socket with 100~240V,
50/60Hz. When it is charging, the battery power icon on the
screen will shine; after charging finished, the battery power
icon on the screen will stop shining.
After charging finished, pull the charger out of the
equipment and then pull the charger out of the power
socket.
Charging time
If the AC voltage is very low, you should charge the
battery in a long time.
The charging time is about 7~9 hours. (More accurate
time will depend on the battery condition.)
The environment temperature of normally charging
should be 0~40. Charging under below 0 or above ℃℃℃
40, the battery performance will descend and the battery ℃
life will shorten. When charging under too high or too low
temperature for a long time, it will cause damage to the
battery. For example, the battery can't charge fully and
cause the battery inflation.
It will lengthen the charging time to use nonstandard
charger.
It will also lengthen the charging time to operate the
tester when charging.
Note:
![](/html/c1/c1d9/c1d9c8b4b17ad1e558263002c5f740959b99d06e28fa6c61b2abc8f0f6ba236e/bg1a.png)
