Mistakes You Make While Charging Your Phone :-
As smartphones have become a part of our day-to-day life we tend to use it to our heart's content and for that we need to charge our phones atleast once or twice a day atleast. But doing so we make a few mistakes which hurts our devices and it's batteries which in turn affects it's performance and longevity. So here I am going to discuss about them and in the end there will a few bonus tips to genuinely improve your device's battery life.
1. Charging your phone to the max before using it for the first time :-
Too often it is advised to charge your phone first fully before using your new phone but actually it's perfectly fine if you just buy a phone, take it out of the box, and start using it right away.
2. Not using your phone while it's charging:-
It doesn't matter whether you’re using your phone while charging or not, it’ll still charge the same exact way.
3. Being afraid that chargers from a different brand will kill your battery :-
If the charger works well enough, it won't harm your mobile device. So if you need to urgently charge your phone in an emergency or the factory charger it came with doesn't work anymore, you can get any cheap version that’s compatible with your smartphone.
4. Thinking that turning your phone off will damage the battery :-
If you simply shut your device off from time to time, nothing dramatic will happen. In fact, some devices may actually start working more effectively after you reboot them.
5. Trying to “train” your battery :-
Feel free to charge your phone even if the battery is as full as 90%. Charging your phone frequently doesn't hurt the battery.
6. Not charging your phone overnight for fear of damaging the battery :-
If you wanna extend your battery’s lifespan, keep it charged between 40 and 80%. Believe it or not, this actually helps the battery live the longest.
7. Putting the battery in the freezer to make it last longer :-
Freezing your phone does nothing more than kill the battery. The thing is that lithium-ion batteries react badly to both cold and heat.
8. Using task managers to prolong battery life :-
The built-in system on your phone is already dealing with everything that should be done to keep your device’s performance in tip-top shape. As for third-party task managers, they’re actually more likely to decrease your phone’s performance.
9. Fearing to leave your phone charger plugged in :-
It's perfectly safe to leave your charger plugged in unless you have a damaged charger, pets at home, or no lightning protection.
10. Not charging laptops all the time to prevent damage :-
Experts recommend discharging your laptop to zero percent no more than once a month.
11. Believing that the Internet runs your battery down the fastest :-
If you’re just surfing the Net or reading articles, it doesn’t influence your battery life any more than listening to music does.
12. Turning off Bluetooth, GPS, and Wi-Fi to prolong the battery life :-
Wi-Fi consumes even less energy than your smartphone needs to maintain the cellular data connection.
Now let's look at the points we can consider to truly keep your phone's battery in great condition.
• Tips to prolong the life of your battery:
1. Keep batteries cool :-
Avoid leaving your smartphone, tablet, or laptop in direct sunlight or in a hot car. And definitely don’t take your gadgets to a hot place, like the beach or sauna.
2. Store batteries with a bit of charge :-
The problem with storing batteries is that they lose their charge over time. And when this charge drops to zero, your battery will automatically kill itself so that it doesn’t become unstable.
