That was befor Li Ion batteries. It is not necessary to do this. Taking a Li Ion batteries too low can damage them. Most now have protection for this. But if it is tripped you can't recharge it.

Those are all very good tips. One thing I want to ask since there are lots of rumors out there about how to preserve battery life in the respects of how long and when you should charge your phone. Have you ever seen anything concrete to ensure that your battery will remain healthy longer? Such as letting it die the whole way, or turning it off before charging, etc.
The lithium batteries used in these phones are not susceptible to the memory effect exhibited by older nickel-type batteries, therefore there is no benefit/drawback to letting the battery drain until the phone shuts off. The batteries also have internal circuitry to make it near impossible to overcharge them or drain them to a point where they are damaged.

Re: 10 TIPS: To help extend BlackBerry Battery life...

Great call. I have a lot of customers who come in ans say that there battery life is horrible and I usually go through just about all those settings with them. You've hit a few that I've overlooked. Thanks for the information. ~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

Re: 10 TIPS: To help extend BlackBerry Battery life...

Now what about when you charge via laptop I went an entire day talking like crazy (trying to move and buy/rent a new house) crashed for the night didn't pack the wall charger and used my laptop all night to charge woke up the next day full battery that lasted me to lunch time (with me being causious of my battery at that point)


So why when I charge with my wall it lasts so much longer than if I used me usb. And did I cause damage by using my laptop.

Ended up buying a car charger (for a razr, because it was the only one they had)
