-Reduce how often email syncs (you have the option of daily, based on my usage, hour, manually, and as items arrive, I believe). You can choose hourly for email accounts that you expect emails from, and daily for accounts that you rarely get emails from.
-Set your lock screen to time out no more than 5 minutes at the most
-Auto-brightness generally does a good job but if you want to use a setting, don't set it high.
-It is recommended to charge when you hit 30% for health of the battery but do what works for you.
-Battery saver is your friend, use it when needed.

The core battery saving tips are the same across the board. Reduce brightness, use less, reduce email checking frequency, etc.

Of course some are OS specific but you generally don't have to worry about it too much. Just use the phone as you need. Replacement batteries should be cheap too if you need a spare.

What I have always tried to have a charger for my smartphone for my vehicle, a charger for home and a charger or cradle for the office, and if my device has a user replaceable battery I get one of those as well.
