Approx 3 yrs is Max for any Original Battery to work perfect or at Optimal.

I was using Moto 350C for GPRS via PC and I always keep it charging when Accessing Net and the result - battery hardly works for 3-4 hrs a day.

I think Keep charging is Early Death for Batteries.

Hmm.. You should never put batteries on continuous charge.. One should charge the battery only when it drains completely.. That extends the life of the battery..

kalpik:- The battery should be completely discharged only in old phones.Most new phones today use Lithium ion battery & it doen't need full discharge.

By drain completely i mean when the phone shows low battery..
@Cool_G5: then why do manufacturers recommend that in the users manual even in the newest phones?

continuos charge doesnt hav an effect but we are charging it for 8 hours or may b more(in my case)...
General wear and tear increases..
we are charging it 4 times a day, when in general we charge one time in two days....
