Whether you have a cheap tablet or an expensive one, I'm sure you constantly have to charge it. For your own sanity, keep it on Battery Saver mode. It makes a world of difference.

Cool.

I miss my docking station. I just put my tablet in it and it charged. My new one has to be plugged in.

Also, lithium ion batteries, on which all tablets operate, don't like to get charged up to 100%, nor left neglected till 0%. One must charge the battery in the 25 - 75 % range. Else, the device will stop holding a charge.

Such advanced technology (sarcastic) and we're being forced to switch to electric in 2030.

[–] Luffy (837) a year ago

I know you are being sarcastic. The technology is one from the 60s that no one wanted to bet on, apart from Sony, who took the gamble in the 90s.

Battery technology is far more behind than I realized.

That's genuinely good advice. Wish I'd known it earlier...

Thank you.

I do that with my laptop since it's plugged in 95% of the time.

the tablet didn't really work out like they thought it would.

I use mine to watch all my tv shows and movies since I'm not home too often. It's more portable than my laptop.
