Samsung tab 2 7.0

[Storm1]

I am thinking of buying Samsung tab2 7.0.
Can some one please tell me how long does it take to do the first initial charge.?
After the first charge should I let my Tablet run right down before I do the second charge. ?
Heard somewhere that the Battery does better if you do this.
Thanks. Storm

It's been a while since I charged mine for the 1st time - I think it was about 4-6 hours for the initial charge-up.

Regarding charging tips, there's a great article on just that subject here:

Dispels some common myths about charging modern devices.

4 to 6 hours is probably right, but when you are waiting to use your new tablet it feels like an eternity.
As far as the battery goes dont worry too much about it, or you'll end up not getting the most enjoyment from your device. Odds are ni matter.what you do the battery will probably outlast the usefullness of the device.
