How to charge phone

Your phone is like a small computer, giving you tons of information and apps. Depending on what you use, that can take a lot of power. Plan on charging the phone each night so it's ready for the next day.

  1. Using the charger that came with the phone, insert the USB end into the phone.

    Other chargers, including laptops, can charge more slowly.

  2. Insert the plug into an electrical outlet.

    When the phone is off and charging, you’ll see the outline of a battery and a percentage. If the battery is completely discharged, this will not appear until the phone has received the minimum voltage required to boot.

    When the phone is on and charging, you’ll see in the status bar.
