How do you usually charge your phone? Charge the battery to 100% in one go? Just charge overnight? Or wait until the battery runs out before charging? In fact, you might be charging your phone the wrong way! Your charging habits may have been accelerating the rate at which the battery is dying! Today, I will talk to you about the things that you should pay attention to when charging your smartphone. Come and take a look!
How to properly charge your phone?
1. The best way to charge your phone is to charge it whenever you can, a little at a time. Today's mobile phones basically use lithium batteries. If the battery is always completely used up before charging, it will actually damage the battery. Frequent shallow charging will be more conducive to prolonging the life of the battery. Therefore, to charge the mobile phone, it is best to charge it when you have the opportunity, and then unplug it when you have the chance.
2. Do not wait until the battery is completely drained before charging the phone. There used to be a saying that the battery has a memory function, and you must wait until the battery of the mobile phone is completely exhausted before charging the mobile phone to 100%, otherwise the battery will "remember" the proportion that needs to be charged, so that it needs to be charged before the battery is used up. And charging will not overflow.
"Smartphones now use lithium-ion batteries. The technology and structure of lithium batteries have undergone tremendous changes. It is wrong to recharge the mobile phone batteries after they are completely exhausted." The leading new energy power battery company, Tianneng lithium battery research and development Engineer Wang Yonggang informed the reporter of Science and Technology Daily that the complete exhaustion of the power, the so-called "deep discharge", may have an irreversible impact on the internal material structure of the battery and shorten the battery life.
3. Try to keep the battery level between 65% and 75%. If the lithium battery in the smartphone can always be kept between 65% and 75%, the battery life is the longest. While it's obviously not realistic to keep the battery in this range all the time, at least you know what the ideal state looks like.
4. Do not charge the battery from a very low percentage all at once. Charging your phone battery from 25% low to 100% reduces battery capacity and shortens battery life. Research shows that batteries, like people, don't want to be stressed, don't always expect it to be overcharged. In fact, charging to 100% from any charge level is not a good idea. Lithium batteries do not need to be fully charged, there is no need to do so. Therefore, it is recommended to unplug the charger before the battery is fully charged (98%, 99%), or as soon as the battery is fully charged.
5. It is best not to let the phone charge overnight. Even if you want to fully charge your phone, there's one caveat: As soon as your phone's battery reaches 100 percent, you should stop charging it. Do not unplug the power supply after fully charged, the battery will remain fully charged, although it will not explode, but it will speed up battery consumption.
The following practices also affect battery life
Using non-original chargers to charge different types of mobile phones has their own matching chargers. Using non-original chargers may cause irreversible effects on battery performance due to the large current of the chargers used.
Calling, playing games, watching videos, etc. with the mobile phone while charging are all high current consumption. The current provided by the charger is less than the current consumed by the mobile phone. While charging, the mobile phone needs to output current from the battery. That is to say, the battery is not being charged at this time, but is being discharged, and even the battery capacity will be quickly "dried up". Lithium battery life is closely related to the number of charge-discharge cycles. When using a mobile phone while charging, the battery is constantly switching between two states of charging and discharging, which will affect the life of the battery.
