In this post, I detailed the things you can do, and reasons behind them, to improve your battery longevity (not battery life on one charge, which is a completely different topic altogether).

Money quote is:

So, my personal suggestion is to charge between 30-80%, that is, charge the phone when its around 30%, and charge to 80% only.

One thing to pay attention to, is that system may not properly report battery level if you don't charge to full. This can occur every 30-40 cycles, which may be 1-2 month. If your find the battery level way off on the phone, do a calibration, which involves charging the phone to 100%, discharge to 10%, then charge back to 100%.

Enjoy!
