Its distinctive feature is the so-called "No Memory Effect." This means you don't have to wait until the battery is completely discharged to recharge it, hoping to prolong its life. This was done in the past when mobile phones were equipped with Ni-Mh (nickel-metal hydride) batteries. A lithium-ion battery doesn't require this at all. In fact, it's recommended to completely discharge your phone no more than once a month.
