Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Nextel / November 2003Battery life of Nextel phones
My i90c can only get a few days before recharging. And subsequent Nextel phones have not improved that much. My wife subscribes to AT&T and cannot buy a phone that has less than a week of standby time, so she can recharge it over the weekend. Why can't my provider provide such long-lasting-charge phones? Shouldn't I move over? You ARE kidding, right?? > My i90c can only get a few days before recharging. And subsequent > Nextel phones have not improved that much.

Gary I think he means that changing a Service Provider ovr battery life is not wise. Try purchasing an extended battery. You also have to understand that Nextel phones use more power due to DC. > Not right. Why?

Nextel phones use more battery life due to the phones "listening" all the time. A draw back of iDEN. > Gary I think he means that changing a Service Provider ovr battery life is > not wise.

I mean, you are kidding about being upset at having to charge the phone more than once a week. How hard is it to plug it in at night or in the car. How little do you use your phone if you can go a couple of days without recharging. with moderate to heavy use any phone will need charging daily to avoid the letdown of a dead battery.

Gary - go to ebay and search for "NEXTEL FAT BATTERY" you can get a 2400mah for about $7.00 granted it will add some weight to your phone but I've used on for about 8 months and have tripled my battery life of the OEM battery that came with the phone. Ignoring his agents wishes,"wirelessjuan" <nospam@didureadthis.com> flung open the hotel room door and announced to the gathering crowd: >Gary - go to ebay and search for "NEXTEL FAT BATTERY" you can get a 2400mah >for about $7.00 granted it will add some weight to your phone but I've used >on for about 8 months and have tripled my battery life of the OEM battery >that came with the phone. don't you have to change the back to the phone to accommodate for the fatter battery? I got aftermarket 1000mah batteries for our i730s and that's the highest capacity battery we can get for them unless we're willing to go with a different backing to the phones, which makes the phones just plain ugly and bulky. ********************************************************************** People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs. -Unknown Remove "die spammers" to email |
