Motorola tech support just told me that on all of their phones, the batteries should only be charged when at 20% or below because otherwise it will be detrimental to the battery over time. I think he was referring to battery capacity or retention of charge perhaps (not sure if correct terms)? At the risk of sounding ignorant/naive, I'm sorry but whaaaaaa...? I've never heard of that one before.
I had actually called to ask about what they thought about the effect of daily or near-daily turbo-charging of the Droid Turbo's battery and whether that would substantially impact battery longevity. He didn't really answer that one. (EDIT) I just saw the turbo charger/daily thread; a few differing opinions there. At the risk of sounding even more ignorant/naive, I'm thinking of maybe using the turbo charger occasionally and going with my ole Droid Razr Maxx HD's charger or Tylt Vu most of the time.
Btw, I also snuck in the Lollipop update question. He said no idea when, but that Motorola has already sent it to Verizon.
EDIT: Sorry about another battery post. I went through the 2 other recent battery threads but I think this one addresses some different concerns.
