Re: 800w Reviews

I find it funny how a lot of people whine about battery life. Well guess what, if it wasn't the battery, you'd be complaining about the size of the device. In order to make a device thinner, which is typically important to the majority of users, they have to cut somewhere and unfortunately that means thinner batteries for thinner phones--batteries are not going to last as long as those back in the day.

Also, letting your phone's battery actually die is bad; just like charging it constantly or overnight. You can cause the battery's lithium to crystalize and therefore you get less life. I know, current from chargers are "supposed" to cut off once full and lithium batteries aren't "supposed" to "learn" or memorize charging patterns but this isn't always true depending on the chargers/batteries we use... One last thing, it takes about 5-10 full powercycles for you to get the maximum battery life, so whining on day one really doesnt say anything other than one could appear impatient.
