Every one of us uses a phone and it's hard to imagine life without this device.
It's no secret that we use our phones so frequently that sometimes we even charge them more than once a day. Unfortunately, many people are doing it wrong.
Here's how to properly charge your phone to ensure the battery lasts as long as possible.
Phones: Not Just for Calls Anymore
Long gone are the days when a phone was just a device for making calls. We use a plethora of mobile applications daily that facilitate communication and handle routine (including official and banking) matters.
Given the amount of time we spend with our phones in hand each day, their batteries deplete quickly. Interestingly, it's not just the frequency of use that impacts this, but also the way we charge them.
How Not to Charge Your Phone
Many of us wait until the phone's battery is completely drained. This is a mistake that shortens the battery's lifespan. Experts recommend not waiting for the smartphone to fully discharge.
However, this doesn't mean it's a good idea to leave the phone charging overnight. This is another unfortunately popular mistake. The battery should not be charged to 100%, and besides, being plugged in for several hours also adversely affects battery life.
