Battery Life
The removable Li-Ion 850 mAh battery powers the NEC N500i, offering a standby time of up to 200 hours and a talk time of approximately 2 hours and 50 minutes. This battery performance provided satisfactory longevity considering the technological constraints and the device's usage patterns at the time. Its removable nature also gave users the option to carry spare batteries, a practical feature now largely absent from the current smartphone market.
