Re: Bold Blackberry Battery Duration

I really don't completely understand your question.

 

Are you asking "Will my Bold battery life last for 72 hours after charging it to 100%?"

 

The answer is uncertain. It could. It may not.

It depends on your usage AND applications running in the background.

 

IF you are in a situation where you need it for 72 hours use, I would always suggest you have either an additional fully charged battery at hand, or a charger available. The BlackBerry Li-Ion battery is NOT intended for constant discharging to 15-20%, as that actually damages the battery over time. Constant top offs to the battery, even 10 minutes here and there, are recommended.

 

Here are some good charging tips, please read and you'll see that many of them will apply to you.

Re: Bold Blackberry Battery Duration

Thanks alot for your answer and I am sorry for not being clear with my question.

 

my question is what is the average duration of the battery if all the mentioned above switched on?

 

I have read all your tops, I found them usefull but I am feeling the battery is faulty and it required to be changed.

 

I have upgarde the software to resolve bags of the battery drainge and the performance of the battery littel bit improved but not to the expectation.

 

what is you advise to my situation

Why do you feel this?

What is your expectation of battery life?

 

Press Menu > Switch Applications. Please list here ALL of the application icons you show on that ribbon bar?
