How often do you charge your cell?

I plug mine in night. My Samsung SGH-T509 gets awesome battery life. I've never seen it go below full bars, even after a solid hour of talking.
I charge my Panasonic A200 when it tells me to, or when it's looking like it's close to telling me. It lasts about 1.5 weeks (I don't talk much, mainly text).
Every time I can. The battery on my S/E T630 is almost dead.
A new battery should arrive any time now, though.

I have a Sony Ericsson w600i that I charge about once a week. I'm a light user (I HATE talking on the phone - weird I know) but I do text with it daily. The battery life on it seems great, and is far better than any previous phone I've owned (my last phone would go right on the charger when I came home each night). I'm sure it helps that I only turn Bluetooth on when syncing with my MacBook, and I rarely use the games/videos/music features on the phone.
I, too, have the w600i, and LOVE the battery life. I get 4-5 days out of it usually. I'm not on the phone all that often, but I'd say I'm in still in the "regular use" category.DubbaJ said:
LG about 1x a week - minimal use and 2.5 years old. Can't complain, but looking forward to the 'next' phone - perhaps an iPhone...
I've got a Nokia 6030 that I charge about every four days. I had a Samsung x427m that I ended up charging every one to two days since the battery had gone to ****.
devilot said:I have a horrible cell that's ridden w/ all sorts of issues. I MUST keep it charged because if I ever, ever, ever turn it off (or if the battery dies) then my phone does this weird thing where it scrolls through and beeps every alarm/event that I have ever entered in my phone.
hilarious. and i thought my kyocera soho sucked. it lags. what cell phone LAGS?! batt life is awful too - about once every 2 days and i barely talk on it.
I get 2 to 2 and a half weeks of battery life on my nokia 1100
Even with me using the built in flashlight feature all the time

I have a Nokia something (6160i or similar) and I've used it contiuously for a week and the battery was still over half full. I don't know how long it'd take to die, but I charge it almost every night just because the plug is next to my bed.

Another thumbs up for Sony Ericssons my W810i easily lasts 5-7 days with texting and talking a bit, using the music player and camera occasionally, and using the light a lot.
Heh, how did this thread suddenly come back?
Well, now, I have a RAZR V3, and I charge it every third or fourth day. Which places it about exactly where I've been with every other phone I've ever owned... interesting. Especially since all four of them have been from different manufacturers....

I have an LG Camera Phone... I charge it about once every 5 days I'd say. I've always had pretty good luck when it comes to batteries... I think I've got a gift or something
