Battery Life - Can It Be Improved

Anonymous
Not applicable
Question for the group.

I have a SG Note 3 which I have had for about 9 months. It was a refurbished device from o2 and has o2 bloatware installed.

Over the months the amount of use I can get from the handset "appears" to have reduced. Typically I am charging it 1.5 to 2 times per day. That said I do hammer it. It gets a lot of use.

So my question is: would getting a new Samsung Original battery improve things or is it just the way it is?

Answers on the back of a postage stamp please. 😃😃

And it is NYE....LOL

Knowing I don't hammer my Note 3 like you guys (and it is only a month old)....I am still getting 3 days battery use out of it.

Compared to my S3 that's brilliant. I only got a day out of that.......

Try pressing that button on the right hand side slight_smile makes the phone do an awful not more, but you might see your 3 day battery life reduce a bit Crazy
