There is no requirement to charge the phone prior to using, unless it doesn’t have sufficient charge to complete the setup process.


Further:

You can charge at anytime for any amount of time.

You can use it while charging.

You can leave it attached to the charging circuit after the battery reaches 100%.

Do not repeatedly deplete the battery to low levels.
