SIM Card query

**Just** · 06-21-2010, 05:23 AM

Does the memory of a sim card influence the battery life of a cell phone. I have an old 16k SIM card and was wondering if an upgrade of my SIM card would increase my phone's battery life. (I have a samsung D600)

Thanks in advance!

I doubt it... you might want to get the larger sim card cause it can hold more stuff for you..... Your battery if it is over a year old tends to loose it's ability to hold a charge as well as it used to when it was newer.... Charging and recharging over time wears them out...

Even when you purchase the phone your meant to charge it for a couple of hours, 16 hours etc, varies on different phone, if you do not charge em according to the manual on the first time then they can have a pretty crap battery life

Continuously 'topping off' a partially discharged battery shortens it's life. In battery lingo, this is called 'memory'. Try letting the battery go completely dead and then re-charge for the full time (16-24hrs). This is called 'deep charging'. Do this a couple of times and your battery will love you for it.
