In this day and age, mobile phones have become part and parcel of our lives. There are even some people who can't leave the house without these gadgets. This is because their businesses and lives depend on the gadgets. This shows you the importance of cell phones. One feature of these gadgets that must be there for it to work is the battery. Many people usually concentrate on the phone but pay little or no attention to the battery. It is when the battery stands misbehaving and discharging often that they start complaining how bad the phone is. The real problem is that they did not take safety precautions to protect the battery from discharging often.
One thing people must know about phones is that if it has many applications, the battery will be discharging quite often. Thus, to ensure the battery lasts longer, once you finish using an application, ensure you close it. For example, if you are using the Bluetooth service of your phone, once you are through with it, ensure you disable it. This way, the battery will last longer.
Let us look at the generation of cell phone batteries.
The first type of battery that was used on a mobile phone was the Nickel Cadmium battery, also known as the NiCad battery. Buying such batteries was not a problem. However, the main disadvantage of this battery is that it had to be removed from the gadget when it was supposed to be charged. One had to fully discharge then recharge it. This was cumbersome. Unplugging the battery also caused an effect on the memory of the phone.
The NiCad battery was followed by Nickel Hydride battery. This one was much better and did not have any effect on the memory of the phone.
The battery that followed is what most mobile phones have now: Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) battery. These batteries are much better than the ones stated earlier but more costly. The benefits that come with it cannot be compared to the cost. These batteries have no effect on the memory of the phone. There is also no need for totally discharging then recharging it.
A more advanced battery known as the Lithium polymer is starting to get popular in the market. Not much can be said about this battery but it seems to be promising.
All in all, it is important to know how the battery of your phone operates so that it may last longer. Read as much as you can about cell phone batteries before purchasing one.
