Q: Turning on iPhone 5S for the first time?

Hello,

I just bought brand new iPhone 5 S in a store and after I searched (google) for some answers regarding to battery maintenance I am little bit confused. Some say that it is wise to drain battery till phone turns off and than recharging it completly..than some people say that is nonsense so that you must charge your phone straigh awway from the box and dont let phone to turn off..some are mentioning 3 hours procedure but I know that is nonsense..

Can you tell which procedure is the best for first time.

Thanks a lot.

    You can set it up while it's plugged in and charging.

    Sensible approach, but you can do that while it is charging if you want to.

    It should be reassuring when you get 3 answers to a post and they agree

    I try to quote mr.Finch ´s post but didnt done that well so above answer is refering to his post( ...However, if the gauge is miscalibrated it will appear to turn off with charge left in the battery when the battery is close to flat. That is why you should test the battery if this happens, and if it tests OK you should recalibrate the gauge...)

     

    p.s. (sorry for my bad english)

    Last night I was with my friends and I my battery was at 2 %..I didnt had adapter with myself so I rather turn the phone off manually. Is that better solution or is better to alow the device to turns off by itself?

    It's better to turn it off manually. If you wait for it to turn off itself it will reboot after you charge it for a while. If you turn it off it will come back on where it was before you turned it off.
