Reduce your backlight on time. (See "Changing the
Backlight Time Length" on page 64.)
Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. (See "Turning
Bluetooth On and Off" on page 126.)
Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use. (See "Turning Wi-Fi
On and Off" on page 152.)
Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most
applications using this function will periodically query
the GPS satellites for your current location; each
query drains your battery. (See "Activating Location
Mode" on page 172.)
When taking pictures, do not use a flash unless you
have to. (See "Camera Settings" on page 119.)
Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted
before charging your device. Repeating this process
of a complete discharge and recharge can over time
reduce the storage capacity of any battery.
