How often do you charge your phone?
 

To get the best out of your phone, how do you charge it?

Some people say its good to keep it charged up, some others say to drain it completly every so often.
Obviously batteries get worse over time, but whats the best way to get the best use of your phone?

My one2one has around two days on a full charge, but I plug it in every night to top it up.

My LG G3 will go 2 days on a charge, I then just plug it in for an hour to charge it back up. I generally only charge it when it gets down to 1/4.

Daily.

Since I got a bloody "smart" phone, it needs charging _at least_ daily

My Sony Xperia L lasts for days until it needs charged as I let it nearly die but then again I only use my phone for text messages and calls, whereas both my son's iphones are rubbish at holding a charge and need charged every night and hubby's Sony z3 gets charged everyday whether it needs to be or not.

As I have a very poor signal at work my phone eats the battery so lasts about 24 hours, but weekends I can charge Friday night and not need to charge again until noon + on Sunday.

Mine is a HTC One (M7) on T-Mobile (EE) not 4G.

My daily commute is around 2 hours altogether so if I drive I charge it in the car or when I go by train I plug it in there. I charge it overnight as well. I'm probably doing it more than I need to but the one day I decide not to is when I run out of power just when I need it.

I always charge my phone overnight. When I go to bed it gets plugged in next to my bed whether its low or not.

Occasionally it will completly drain if I'm heavy using it, so top up during the day with my extra battery case.

Its a Note 3 just now but changing to a G3 this week,

Poor signal eats my battery, but as there's nothing on the actual phone to drain it, I still get 4-5 days on a charge. I usually charge it when it starts bleeping at me.

Usually don't let it drop below 50% but use rapid charge to take it back to 100% in around 30 mins.

Re: How often do you charge your phone?
 

About every 3 or 4 months. I don't use it that often.

Hmmm... the £10 top-up I put on it about 2 years ago is down to £6.47.....

Re: How often do you charge your phone?
 

I've been told it is worth always keeping the battery above 40% so when mines heading past the 50% mark I stick it on charge.
Every few months its aparently good to drain completely but I tend to keep mine topped up most of the time.

How the hell do you manage that?

Just about to stick a Lollipop build on mine but it generally gets to the end of the day before needing to be charged on medium-ish use on Stock 4.4.

I dont charge until needed. My phone Moto G First Edition lasts me about 2 days before it needs to be charged.
