Did you know that if you're not careful, you can easily smash your phone's battery?

Before we get started with the tips, let’s start with the fact that while most of us don’t deal with the battery, it’s just as important a part of the phone as the proci. More specifically, the SoC, which includes proci. At the time when I was still working in a PC service, I had to draw the attention of customers many times to the fact that it doesn't matter what kind of power supply you choose next to a cool motherboard and processor, because the wrong choice can push the whole machine to the grave.

Well, the situation with phones is not so dramatic, especially that in most cases we can't choose the mobile battery, but if it breaks down, it is also macerous to replace it, because the removable back cover, the removable battery, is already a rarity. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to using that damn battery, because if we don’t take care, we can incur serious costs.

It’s good to know that improper use can shorten battery life by up to 50 percent, which, even if handled well, is finite. Sure, modern batteries last longer, but they also lose their maximum capacity with each charge and immersion, which means that even if they are charged, they will discharge 100 percent sooner. There are two things you can do about it. Either you take the advice below and take care of it, or you buy a phone with an unbearably sized battery that will retain as much capacity over a long period of time as you would with a normal cordless phone.

Let's see our advice!

1. No, believe me you don't have to be discharged anymore

In the old days, when we bought a phone, the first thing was that we used up the remnants left in the factory charge, and then when we charged it to a switched off charge. This is what experts have said that the battery needs to be formatted. That wasn't stupid, but it's nowhere near true. So, you can take care of the battery the first time you turn it on, if you don’t let it drain your bones.

2. If possible, don’t top it up to 100 percent

Surely, there is nothing more convenient than going to bed at night, putting the almost depleted phone on the charger, and then pocketing a fully charged cell phone in the morning. This is a huge mistake! On the one hand, it is no longer good for him to fill it full, but it is even less good to leave it on the charger.

Unfortunately - or not - the battery will charge sooner than before in the morning. - At least fortunately, if you lie down at midnight and go to work at three in the morning, then this admonition may not be for you! - So the phone, which will be charged at ten o'clock in the evening, will probably be charged sometime between one or two in the morning, and if your phone also has a fast charging function, it can happen at 11 and 12. From now on, your phone's battery will go down the road of destruction. What is the solution? Here will be the third point.

3. Spend little time many times

I already mentioned fast charging in the previous point. Well, this is a very useful feature, if your phone knows this, you are in an easier position. For that reason alone, next time choose one that knows this! So the point is not to let your phone get really low. It’s best to put it between 30 and 40 percent on the charger and then take it off at about 80 percent. If you can’t do that, it’s even better than charging for a few minutes during the day whenever you can. So it’s best for the battery to have a charge between 30 and 80 percent, the worst if you’re pushing a cob and not taking it off afterwards. Guaranteed death, this is the case I talked about above, you can shorten the life of a poor person by up to 50 percent.

4. The battery does not like too cold or too hot

Certainly not, it’s relatively easy for us here in the temperate zone, but imagine poor Eskimos, you have to keep your phone in their pants all the time to keep your pleasant body warm. No, it’s not really good either, because the ideal is somewhere between 10 and 30 degrees Celsius. I know it’s warmer than that in the summer, but we can still be careful not to leave the phone at least in the sun. This is not only good for the battery, let's just say the display can hurt, and everything else inside. So the point is, if it’s cold, keep it warm, if it’s hot try to at least put it in the shadows, not on the dashboard of the car.

5. If not in use, drain

If, for some strange, ill reason, you decide not to use your phone, do not fully charge it before you put it away. It is best to leave a charge of around 60 percent in the off state. If you get it set up without a phone and you don’t take out your cell phone for months, you won’t do any good with it either. Get it out at least every month and a half, plug it into the charger, and charge it back to 60 percent. If the battery is already bad and there is no charge left in it after a month and a half, then leave it all hell, you have essentially managed to kill your battery.

+1 Council

You may go hiking or camping in a place where there is no outlet. You may also not want to give up your phone. I was once almost lost in the Alps in the winter, in the snow reaching the waist, the fact that I am still writing an article may be due to my phone, GPS helped!

So there are times when conserving battery life isn’t the first thing that comes to mind, even though there’s a simple way you can take care of it. The magic word: Powerbank! In Hungarian, let's say it's more of an external battery. You can also carry so much charge with a cheap external battery that you can charge your phone up to 3-4 times.

Aren't these things complicated? Just a little attention, and your phone — both your notebook and tablet — will pull the yoke much further without having to have it serviced due to a battery replacement. Be good with your phone too, and if you have any tips on extending battery life, share with us in the comments! Thanks!
