Any estimates on how long a fully charged new battery should last if phone is mostly idle mode and turned off at nights? I have old Samsung flip phone

Well the other day my phone (S4) was dead. I put it for charging and drove for about 30 mins from my work to home. By the time I reached home it was about 50-60% charged. I drive an infinity, which has a 12V charging plug. At that rate, am guessing an 45 mins to an hour.

I've got the S6033, just added this battery a little over a month ago. I'd say I get about 3 hours off a full charge. Hope that helps.

It's lasted a few 2 hour conversations and then the phone is returned to its' charger. Phones are usually left in their chargers so I can't really say how long they'd last on standby. Mine work well -- way longer than the old OEM batteries the phones came with.

It's usually a battery problem, not a phone one! When I first got my S3 battery lasted about 20 hours after a full charge, now it lasts about 5, I use 3 different batteries a day using an external charger on one battery while using another on the phone and so on. My advice: get a new battery

Hey man. Well I use my phone allot. Standard battery was at 15 % or less by the end of the day (unplugging the phone from charging cable at 5:30 am getting home from work at 9 pm) the new battery leaves me with 49% in the same time span. So I would say it gives me an extra 5 hours about. Depending on what you have running ( gps, wifi, 4G, blue tooth, auto rotation and the other sensors. ) if you use your phone allot in a day I would recommend buying one. It really does help. Charging time with Samsung 2 amp charger is about 15 min longer than standard battery. Hope this helps make your decision. Grtz Hey man. Well I use my phone allot.

My phone got pretty poor battery life (maybe 1 day or so) until I turned off the keypad light (menu --&gt; settings --&gt; backlight --&gt; duration to off). Now it gets a few days, not great, but not horrible. Your phone or charger is (or was) certainly defective--10 minutes is ridiculous. Alan

Well i suggest installing the battery and letting it charge for 24 hours and then use the phone like normal. But never leave the pone charging over night it well overcharge the battery and you'll have a lot of power problems.

In standbys or light use such as occasionally checking emails and answering phone calls the charge last me all day (14hrs). I get that with the original battery also. It is important to note that it took about 3 charging cycles to get this performance. Out of the box after original charge I only got 8 hrs, but in my case performance improved after more use. Heavy use gets me about 6-8 hrs depending on what I am doing.

I think it's always best to fully charge your battery when you first get it, and then let it run all the way down. They seem to last longer that way. I like my battery it makes my phone last all day. Of course I spend a lot of time on Facebook, Twitter, and emails.

Charge the battery all the way and let it run down until your phone warns you that your battery is low and then recharge again. Do this a couple of times and thats it. Good thing is it take a couple od days to drain this battery!! BF

Not sure where I originally got this info, but for years I've sworn by a complete first charge followed by a complete discharge, followed by another complete second charge (and keeping the machine turned off during at least the first exercise). All future use minimizing actual battery usage, so basically keep it plugged in whenever possible or at least charging every night. My 3 yr old LG cell phone still gets 3-4 days/charge (vs 5-6 days brand new) and 4 yr old laptop gets 2 hrs (vs 4 hrs brand new)... Hope this helps.

Actually, my first full charge took almost 48 hours. I initially thought the battery was defective. However, every charge after the first one has been relatively "normal" (4 hours or so for a fully depleted battery). I'm very pleased with the battery's performance. It lasts for slightly over 48 hours with GPS, Wi-FI, and Bluetooth turned on; and normal call/text/surfing use.

Thanks very much for your response. I'm only getting about an hour or less of battery life. I'm very disappointed. Thanks again.

It was holding a decent charge for about 6 hours versus the 3 hours I was getting with my old battery. The phone was 2 years old, so I didn't expect it to act like my 100% brand new. It really was my fault for not caring for my battery properly and letting it die every now and then.

Hi Mary,I am sorry to hear your mobile only lit up for one night. You should see underneath of the top(where the top of the strings are located) there is an on/off switch. Please turn it to the "OFF" position for at least 24-48 hours and then turn it back to the "ON" position. This will allow the item to fully charge. If you are still having trouble, please email us so we can locate your order and take care of this for you. -Cory, Wind & Weather Customer Service
