My Bionic

[bworley50]

bworley50, I want to thank you for showing this video. Now I see you have been inundated with request to check this, and test that, on your phone to give us all a "taste" of what we'll be getting on 9/8.

In your post you mentioned your a family man, with other priorities than to cater to our every inquiry.

So, I propose you overnight your phone to me, I have no plans this weekend, so I'd be able to answer all the questions our posters have on the Bionic. essentially freeing you from this thread.

On Wednesday I will overnight the phone back to you. sound good!

Sounds great. Kids to sleep in 15 min. Videos to come from my Xoom to you tube to AC in about an hour or less.

How to Condition Your Cell Phone Battery | eHow.com

If any of you are unaware^^

But like i said, I do not know if current gen batteries require this as much.

That says to don't charge it out of the box while the other user says to charge it immediately (as well as the manual).

Which is it?

I have owned 5 Motorola android smartphones and have never done that. I have never had a problem with the batteries either. Do I need to look both ways, throw salt over my shoulder, or anything else to help the battery?

Who is sarcastic now.

Me. Sorry. Just having a little fun.

For the most part new batteries do not require conditioning. This is an old practice that has been carried over from old types of batteries. Originally batteries were Nickle-Hydride (Nickle Metal Hydride, or NiMH) or Nickle-Cadmium (NiCad). Both of these used to have VERY bad "memories" and short lifespans. The Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries used in today's electronics have overcome both challenges. While they still carry a lifespan of charge cycles, you do not have to follow a set conditioning regime.

I do however recommend fully depleting the battery once out of the box and then fully charging it. This should be a sufficient "condition".

I want to thank you for your time. You have about 10,000 people refreshing the page to see more. LOL

Can I use it while its on the charger? I have work on the first day and I don't think I will be able to deal with not having the phone with me to play with while the day drags on.

IF I can use it while its on the charger for the first 24 hours then I will just bring a charger with me to work and plug it in. Otherwise I will have to suck it up and leave it at home.

Will the battery survive a brutal break in? Yes, will a car? Yes, but if you take care to break in the tech/motor properly, you just get longer life out of it.

He said earlier that it's better than his Droid 3 that he took the video with. So I'm expecting a very nice camera lol.

Wow, are you sure that's a pentile screen? You zoomed into the top bar and the battery icon actually looked... strait!

You should grab a nice camera and do a close up.

Is the screen better than the X2 or Droid 3's?

You should run some benchmarks, like CF-Bench, Smartbench, etc.
