I need to charge it every other day. If I turn it off at
nights (1AM-10AM), the battery could last for one more day.

Is it normal? Thanks

I charge mine every 2 days, or 3 if I dont make many calls.

I charge mine every night by habit. I hear that it is bad to do that but they sell new ones at the store. If mine wears out I will just get another. I travel in areas where I have to use analog roam and that just sucks the battery dry in no time. I use the extended battery by the way but have gone for 4 days easy with no charge just to see what it would do. I average about 2000 min. a month use.

I charge mine every night too.

I've done this with every single cell phone I've owned and never experienced a battery issue. I do use my phone often during the day so most of the time it needs charging but I think all those warnings about charging your phone every day are a bit over rated.

How often you charge your phone depends on how much you use it (calls, Vision, etc...). Most of the time I charge mine every 2 to 3 days, but this weekend I was using my phone a lot and charged it once a day.

I charge mine every day...because by night it's allways dead.

Lithium batteries are rated at about 1000 recharges. Even if you charge it every night it should last about 2.7 years. By then you'll want a new phone anyway.
