There's nothing more annoying than having the cell phone die out on you mid conversation. We've all been there I'm sure. The little battery indicator seems to be on full charge for ages then drops off the display all of a sudden. It's a bit like the fuel gage on a car. The only difference is that car can get topped up at the next fuel stop whereas we have to wait for the phone's battery to recharge. Have you ever wondered why some cell phone batteries live longer than others? Quiet often it's about how you care for and maintain your battery.

I've outlined a few recommendations below on how to get the most out of your cell phone battery. If you follow these suggestions, you will get more life out of your mobile. But first, let's just take a quick look at the average life of a cell phone battery.

Of course, all batteries are as different as the phones they come with, but they are all pretty much the same when it comes to power. An average life expectancy for a cell phone battery which is properly taken care of, can last anything between 350-400 full charge cycles. What this means is that if you find it necessary to re-charge your mobile daily, then you should expect to get anything from 12 to 14 months of good usage. After this time you should expect to see the battery deteriorate. You will notice this by the life cycle of the charge. It will begin to lose its power much quicker over time.

If you don't use your mobile quite as frequently as above, and therefore only need to recharge it every 2 or 3 days, you could see the life or your battery exceed to 2 years or more.

Suggestions: The most important way to get the most out of your cell phone is to follow the manufacturers charging instructions that come with the device. If you ignore these, then not only will your battery have a shorter life expectancy, but it'll lose its charge quicker too, so remember to follow the initial charging instructions exactly as they are laid out in the owners manual. Usually they recommend you allow the battery to completely loose all of its charge before that first recharge, but as I said, check the specific instructions that come with your particular phone.

Extreme changes in temperature can also deteriorate the life of your cell phone battery. In fact, one of the quickest ways to weaken it is to leave it in the car during extreme weather conditions. That goes for hot as well as cold weather. Another mistake many folks make is to leave their phone plugged into the car's charger at all times. What this means is that every time you restart the motor, your phone starts a charge cycle unnecessarily and that's a waste of a charge cycle. Remember, cell phone batteries only have so many charge cycles before they begin to deteriorate.

On the flip side of the above, your battery could also deteriorate if you don't charge it often enough. If you are an occasional user, it's not a good idea to let it keep losing all of its charge too often. You could find that it fails to recharge properly when you most need it.

To summarize then: Follow the instructions in the manufactures manual 'specifically' with regards to the initial charging procedure of your cell phone battery. Don't leave the phone plugged into the car's charger when it doesn't need charging. Don't expose your phone to extreme temperatures for too long (in other words, don't leave it outside or in a car), and don't let it lose its full charge too often

What is it with these all-singing all-dancing bells and whistles cell phones these days? They'll be going to the toilet for us next! I mean, just how much more gadgetry are the manufactures planning to cram into these tiny devices? Apart from the communication function of a mobile, the only other 2 features I've used are the radio and the camera. All the internet, games, planners, calculators and other bits that they come equipped with these days, fall by the wayside with me I'm afraid. Even the camera was nothing but a novelty to begin with, but now that the image quality is improving, it just might be a replacement for the standard digital camera. But just how do you choose the best camera phone?

All of the big cell phone brands have models with cameras and they're all are telling us that theirs are a cut above the rest, but they can't all have the greatest cell phone camera out there. This is why we need as much info as possible in order to make an informed decision prior to purchasing our new camera phone.

Although the technology is improving all the time, even the best camera phone is substandard to regular digital cameras, simply because they lack the versatility and functionality of the real deal. If you simply want a cell phone camera for quick snaps shots or to record images for reference material, then you may not care too much about image quality. If, on the other hand, you want to be able to take nice photos for posterity, then you really do need to compare between the models.

So, the biggest set back with the camera phones have been with image quality. Quite often the results are grainy, not too sharp, and lack perspective. Up until quite recently, the resolution on a mobile phone camera was around 640 x 480 pixels. Now compared to the digital cameras, which literally have millions of pixels, you can quite clearly see why there is such a drastic difference in image quality.

However, that was then and this is now. The new age of camera phone is upon us and there are models available which also boast resolution in millions of megapixels. In fact, in 2005, Pantech announced an impressive 5 Mega-Pixel Mobile Camera Phone and was hailed as the first ‘real’ camera phone, simply because it dramatically enhanced quality of images for users.

There are lots of other models too which are now introducing millions of pixels into their camera phones, so choosing the best one is becoming less of an ordeal than it was say a couple of years ago. There's the Samsung i320N 1.3-megapixel camera (inclusive of flash), which is great for happy snappers. The snazzy Palm Treo 750v also has a 1.3-megapixel camera but without flash. In fact the list is endless and at the time of writing 1.3 megapixel seems to be the new standard, but with the speed of technology, that'll all change pretty soon.

The bottom line is that the higher the resolution (resolution simply refers to the number of pixels in an image), then the higher the image quality will be.
