Using Your Phone’s Battery and Charger

Battery Capacity

Your Sprint PCS Phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion
(Li-Ion) battery. The standard battery provides up to 3.3 hours
of continuous digital talk time and the extended battery
provides up to 5.0 hours of continuous digital talk time.

When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon
blinks. When there are approximately two minutes of talk
time left, the phone sounds an audible alert and then powers
down.

Note:

Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate mode,
and other factors may affect the battery talk and standby
times.

Tip:

Be sure to watch your phone’s battery level indicator and
charge the battery before it runs out of power.
