Battery

HTC Wildfire S uses a rechargeable battery. How long the battery can last before it
needs recharging depends on how you use HTC Wildfire S.The features and
accessories you use can affect battery life. For example, leaving your Bluetooth
connection always on uses more power. Long phone calls and frequent web browsing
use up a lot of battery power. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from
your mobile network and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.

Before using HTC Wildfire S for the first time, you need to remove the thin film
wrapped around the battery.
