Yes, you should always run it down to red if circumstances will allow you to, it will get you the best battery life on all electronic device batteries. Batteries tend to get a memory like a hungry child, they start to get hungry again at dinner time if you feed them regularly. (even Lithium Ion's) This is evident by a battery that shows red for 2 hours without the device shutting off within minutes.
Ive never heard of that i would let it comletely drain just in case or if you can find an article by apple saying that it dosent have memory then go for it
Charge as you like as modern batteries do not have memories like old phones so charging it when not empty will cause no problems.
Hi so put on charge for 14 hours then use it. it is not going to get to full charge until you have had it about a week.
No, never let it drain all the way.
That was ONLY nickel cadmium batteries that had a memory and had to be completely discharged.
All other batteries are better if never allowed to fully discharge.
Your phone has lithium batteries, and can explode if fully discharged and quickly recharged.
I wouldn't do that. This is a good page of tips for new iphone users: http://www.justtext.com/messageboards/20...
Until it gets around 20% or lower if yah not using it anymore. Additionally, for better results, I've heard that its also better once you reach 100% charged, you leave it for like 20 to 30 minutes longer for couple times. I'm still carrying this iphone 4 ha but the battery is in pretty good shape to me.
No - it will do nothing for it
I've just got my brand new iPhone 5c today and it came with about 90% battery when I first turned it on. I am now on it and it has 55% charge. I am wondering wether I should drain the battery to 0% then fully recharge it to 100%, that's what used to be recommended but I'm not sure if you still have to do it. Will you please let me know what I should do. I will get to sleep in around 2 hours, FYI..
