Default Battery Charge Time For 8600

I've been thinking about upgrading(?) from the 9155 to the 8600. Looking at the 8600 info on the Verizon site, it says charge time for this phone is 4 hours/6 hours for standard/extended batteries.

Just wondering what recharge times users have experienced with this phone.

thanks! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Default Battery Charge Time For 8600

that seems REALLY long to me. I usually charge my phone while its on and I think it usually is around 2-3 hours for it to charge completely. I mean I havent done this scientifically or anything but thats the feeling I get

I have no problems with charging at all. typically 2 hours does the job (went from empty to 4 ticks)

I did abide by the initalize 3 charge/discharge for the battery tho (with charging for up to 8/10 hours as the sales rep told me)

Josh123 -- I am just interested to know if your phone have an annoying Bell ad on the outer screen? or does it just show the time/date on the outer screen?
