I have this colleague whose cellphone vibrates even if its sound does not put off. It's in her table and when a message is receive it will vibrate really hard then followed by an irritating sound. It destructs me a lot. I want to tell her that but I am afraid she might get offended. There's this one time she left her cellphone at her printer then it vibrated and guess what it fell down. I wonder why she needs to turn on the vibration when she does not put it to silent mode anyway. I only use vibration when I am at a meeting wherein I need to put my cellphone to silent mode. I hope I'll find a better way to tell her it's not okay and that it will just consume more energy.

Well that could really consumes too much battery but its their choice.
I used to turn on the vibration of my cellphone when it is in silent mode or when it is in my pocket so I could know when someone is calling or sending message yet the surrounding was so noisy.

Yes you have mentioned an important point
. If the surroundings are too noisy we may not hear the ringtone of our cellphone even though it is in our pocket. But if it is vibrating we will be alerted about the call easily and we can attend the call. It is indeed a crucial point

Hi,
Turning vibration mode in a phone is really a waste of battery power aside from its irrelevance and, yes, irritating sound. Personally I don't turn it on and I have not used since I have my mobile phone. Maybe if I shall be in super noisy and crowded room or building which is not often for my work is in a very quiet environment.

I also put my phone in silent mode if I am in a class or when I am in a meeting. And on those occasions vibration is so good. We will be alerted if any one calls us on our mobile phones. I also turn off vibration when the phone is in normal mode

There are mobile applications developed that can change profiles at various places depending on the tower that you get signal from. ask her to use such a software so that it'll be in silent mode and vibration on only when it is necessary.
