Abstract

An electronic apparatus includes a charging unit configured to charge a battery, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to control the charging unit to charge the battery based on a first charging condition, in a case where an operable time of the electronic apparatus from a charging completed state to a discharging completed state is not less than a predetermined threshold. The control unit is configured to control the charging unit to charge the battery based on a second charging condition in which a full charge capacity of the battery is greater than in the first charging condition, in a case where an operable time of the electronic apparatus from a charging completed state to a discharging completed state is less than the predetermined threshold.
