Hi Guys! How long does your battery last? Assuming you don't turn off your T68 at night and at your normal use. |

Battery life is a low point for me. I need to charge every night! AND EVEN THEN, with normal pinoy use (meaning text, calls, kalikot, kalikot ng ibang tao, and the occasional games) its difficult to last until early morning. Nakakainis talaga. |

Mine, only last 48 - 72 hrs at my normal use (few text, voice and gprs). I don't know if my battery is defective or not. I just wondered why they design a phone that has gprs features and have a short battery life.

gooms,
Do you use GPRS? Do you text a lot or calls? |

kutchi,
Do you use GPRS on your T68? Are you working in one of the GSM operators? |

mine last merely 5hrs, few hrs of gprs, sms.
the main problem is it wont fully charge
i bought the t68 on jan 27 at The Hub, PHILIPPINES, globe network locked ,
after 2wks, i noticed that the battery wont FULLY CHARGE,
i brought the t68 to SEMICON in marcos highway for upgrade n check up, i got the celp after 3days, after testing it and charging it i foun out that the battery still DOESNT WANT TO FULLY CHARGE
it wont stop charging even after long long hours.... after taking off the charger plug, u will see the battery lacks 1 bar,(not fully charge):x
what's the use of buying EXPENSIVE phone on authorized dealers, when the unit is defective, they will not replace it, they keep on trying to repair it; wasting our manpower and time!!!
i need help regarding this matter.
thank you

why dont you just let it charge til it "fully
charges"....even if it took you 10 hours or so....?
malay mo.
but if it's like 24hrs plugged na tapos ayaw pa rin, then i guess it's time to get a new unit...
