Question

I535 battery full charges cycles

Apr 14, 2014 6:54PM PDT

I am dead impressed with my S3 I535 ever since it has installed a new battery. My first day of the new battery from Mpj was unimpressive, no better than the stock which been used years. Fortunately, after several full discharge and recharge cycles, I got 20hrs on a charge and had way heavy use on my phone. No idea why?

What is the question?

I would be guessing you want to discuss how batteries work. When new some have to be used a little to show more capacity and later they begin to lose capacity as they wear out. This area really can upset folk.

It is really not necessary to do anything on your new battery.
