[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1537427"] ANYTHING you actually DO with a smartphone will shorten the run time of its battery -- seems rather spurious of Verizon to mention it. If they told you it would shorten the useful lifespan of the battery, that's just nonsense (well no more than any other activity I mean). Tethering is not meant to be used all the time, it's a quick-fix solution for when you need a temporary hot spot. On that level, it works great. Long-term use is going to result in either dramatically shorter battery life and/or a VERY high cell data bill. [/QUOTE]
