10 Charging Mistakes You Can Stop Making Right Now

2. You fully charge the battery.

Your phone's lifespan will be shortened if you constantly charge it to 100%. This is due to the fact that each battery has a set number of charge cycles, and these cycles will shorten if the battery is always charged to 100%.As a general guideline, the battery should be fully charged once a month and kept between 20% and 80% the rest of the time.

3. You totally drain the battery before recharging it.

Allowing the battery to discharge to 0% is also not a good idea. That's why the newest lithium-based batteries operate in charge cycles, as we mentioned earlier. Thus, you will gradually shorten the lifespan of your smartphone if you allow the battery to run out.
