i don't regularily recharge my 10-month old t610. but every now and then. it's never depleted when i hop it in the charger. sometimes it's 75% and i recharge it. most often i dont even have it fully charged. och, fast paced life
still, the battery holds on just fine. absolutelly no suprises. lasts days to a week and talktime is at its best. when i got it i insisted in fully charging the battery before operating it.
my hbh-600 is giving me some trouble. variable operating time..from 45minutes to 3h. dunno. i have the same charging treatment. i'll probably go easy on the little one soon, tho.
i miss my old nokia headset, made in romania, with a full astounding 6h talk time!
my HP Ipaq h6340's battery is the best performer. listen to mp3 for 24h!!! until it completely drains out. wow.
case study: full backlight on, GPRS continuous session/transfer, mp3 playback to headphones, extra text imput and file management/various apps (documents, pictures, even watching a movie), all this on a train, very variable network coverage (blackouts quite often, forcing search mode on the device), for 8 straight hours. arrival always finds me with about 45% battery left. the best power management i've seen in a smartphone. stoked! usual "it's 56%, let's charge it for no surprises...".

@danberte
The phone battery is li-ion while the battery for the BT headset is Ni-MH, that should provide some explanation for the difference. The2 kinds of battery should be treated differently

I did read some where before that fully discharging your battery (i.e. to near 0%) is bad for Li-Ion and Li-Po. The recommendation in this case in fact is to re-charge anytime it has dropped below 50%, and every month or so, only then perform the full discharge before re-charging.
True?

@Zhudm. You are right. But one more point is you have to d.charge it upto 90 percent then & there to work out the last stage of the cell.

No, it's not right!
My t68i has Li-pol battery. I nearly always let the battery turn completly empty before I start charging it. By completly empty I mean the situation, when the phone switches off due very low battery status.
Now my phone (and battery) is over 3 years old. And the battery works like new, average standby time 8,5 days!

@Aivar. I should have mentioned atleast 90 percent. What you do is perfect. But most of us hesitate to use it till death.
