Guy Kawasaki offers tips for extending iPhone 3G battery life
By David Gonzales on 25 Aug 08Aside from the occasionally weak 3G signal reception and the occurrence of crashing apps, you’re probably also experiencing a shortage of battery life on your new iPhone 3G. Maybe you’re not doing all that you can to extend your iPhone’s battery life. As such, Guy Kawasaki offers a few tips to help you out.
Granted, he mentions a couple of time-tested tips that are no doubt taken for granted by most users, such as lowering the brightness settings to the dimmest, but he also adds in a few tips of his own that should all but make your iPhone drain its battery more quickly.
A few of his pointers include turning off the 3G network connectivity completely, as well as keeping Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other data connection services off. You might already have a few workarounds of your own, but Guy gets approximately thirty-six hours of standby time on his iPhone, so his tips are worth checking out.
