I use the tablet a few hours a day (say, 6 hours) and among those most of the time (say 4 hours) it is on my desk so I can plugin the charger if I want.

My question is in this case what's the recommended behavior, for the purpose of saving battery cycles (I mean, say, after a year, the battery life per charge is reduced less compared with when it was new)? Would it be better to use the whole day without charging it, and charge at night? Or Charge it whenever I can?

Thanks for your advice!

Keep it plugged in. The battery will not overcharge and it wont effect the battert cycles as much as draining it and then charging it. Its better to do shallow charges (above 50%) than deep charges.
