I read an article about how to maintain your cell phone. it said that it would be better if you turn off your cell phone once in a while becuase machine just like human beings,they need some rest from time to time. It will last longer in time.I think i never turned it off since i bought my cell phone. I just keep it on charge if the battery is low. And one more thing it will be better if you turn off your cell phone while charging. Do you turn on your cell phone every day?

no i have never switched off my cellphone. and i don't have any problem with that. i am using my current phone for the last four years and it has given me no problem. also i have heard that the expected life of a phone is only 2 years (that is your phone is obsolete in two years) so i think that my phone that has worked for four years is quite good and in its present condition it might as well work for a few more years.

Oh, your cellphone is really of great quality! But don't you think that it will ast for a longer time if you do so?


myLot reputation of 88/100. sunny68 (734)   ranked 2,183 out of 6,921 in cell phone  2 months ago

maybe you are right....but then i may as well need a reason to replace it. now there are better models at cheaper prices...but i won't replace it till it is working properly.

Hello andy555,
Yes I always turn off my Cellphone before going to bed and when my cellphone is charging. yeah true it's also a good way to prolong the life of your battery.^^V
Others also said that it's better to discharge your cellphone first before charging it..


myLot reputation of 84/100. andy555 (103)   ranked 2,062 out of 6,921 in cell phone  2 months ago

Yes, i did it when i first charged my cellphone.

Generally not.
earlier i used to turn my phone off. but i think it is good to switched it off.
but turning off many times and then switched it on consume huge battery power and its life too
i think it is not mandatory to off it daily. it depends on the requirement.


myLot reputation of 84/100. andy555 (103)   ranked 2,062 out of 6,921 in cell phone  2 months ago

So i think maybe it is good to turn off just when charged.

Unfortunately, mu work does not allow me to switch off my cell phone. I am on duty at all hours and even my friends take it for granted that I need no rest and ring up at all odd hours.I know it is better to switch of the phone while charging but I just cannot do it for the fear of missing some important call which might require instant decision making.

Oh, you are leading a such a busy and full life! So you must be a useful person to many people around you! Wish you have a good day every day when your cell phone is on!

Hi Andy,

It was the wrong information that we need to switched off
some times in order to increase the life of the cellphones,
most of the peoples would never switched off because of the necessity
and urgent duty, so we have to open all the times in order to have the
routine work in the smooth ways. I have been using my cellphone since
for long time and never been switched off and have not been received
any compliant, and doing the work is fine. So may be you can do the switch
off when recharging otherwise not necessary to switched off in the normal
day.

Have a nice day.

I turn off my cell phone whilst I recharge it. I like to have my cell phone on if I am expecting a phone call from someone or I want to phone somebody. I have my cell phone switched off unless I plan to send a text message. I wouldn't want to have my cell phone on 24 hours 7 days a week. Some days I keep it switched off.


myLot reputation of 84/100. andy555 (103)   ranked 2,062 out of 6,921 in cell phone  2 months ago

Maybe nowadays sometimes it is really difficult not to be got in touch with by others for there are so many different ways of communication. If i really don't want to be disturbed, i often turn off my cell phone too.

I turn my cell phone off before I go to bed, and I do leave it on while charging, as it always seens to need charging when I need to have it on. I have howerver, turned it off to charge it, if it needed it when I went to bed, but then it is on the charger all night, and that isn't good either. I also wait until I get the warning that my battery is low, before I charge it, as it will help it to last much longer. It is a long life battery as it is, as I only have to charge it up every 4-5 days, and I think that is phenomenal. The cell phone I have now is the best one I have ever had, as none of my other cell phone batteries have lasted as long as this one does. I am really glad I boght it, as I did buy it for all the features, but having a long life battery is a plus, that is for sure. Take care, and happy mylotting. happy


myLot reputation of 84/100. andy555 (103)   ranked 2,062 out of 6,921 in cell phone  2 months ago

yes, i like to turn off my cell phone these days at night, becuase i am offen disturbed by someone i don't knon. They just give a call then before you can answer it they hand off. So i just turn off my cell phone for a good sleep.

The question SHOULD be.....Have you ever turned your cellphone off?

I never turn mine off......ever!

Unless the battery is dead, its on all the time.

No, I do not switch off the cellphone as i will be missing the calls in the emergency mode. But its better to switch off the mobile once with removing the battery.
