Your phone battery is not durable again. You ignored these charging details...

Do you sometimes wonder: Why does the battery of your mobile phone become useless after a short time of use? What is the reason behind this? Let's find out today!

How do mobile phone batteries charge and discharge?

Currently, the batteries used in our mobile phones are basically lithium-ion batteries. Lithium batteries have the advantages of large capacity, small size, high voltage platform and long cycle life.

During the charging process of a lithium battery, lithium is deintercalated from the positive electrode in the form of lithium ions, moves through the electrolyte and is finally embedded in the negative electrode, while the discharging process is just the opposite.

The life of a mobile phone lithium battery is related to the battery cycle. A cycle means the process of the battery's charge going from full to empty and then back to full. When we use our mobile phones, the battery health will gradually decline.

In many cases, battery loss is caused by improper use. Don't charge your phone like this in your daily life !

1. Don’t use your phone while charging

Many people use their mobile phones while charging. This will cause two problems:

① Extend the charging time of the mobile phone. The charging current is generally higher than the current that the mobile phone can provide. Therefore, what is consumed in this process is actually the power of the charging power supply rather than the battery.

② It will damage the service life of the mobile phone battery. Long-term and intensive use of the mobile phone during charging will make it more likely to overheat.

While your phone is charging, it is recommended that you do not play games, watch videos, take photos or make phone calls.

2. Don’t charge the battery after it runs out of power

In order to reduce the number of charging times, many friends will choose the "deep discharge" method, that is, wait until the battery is almost exhausted before charging it.

In fact, this method causes great loss to mobile phone batteries. Currently, most of us use smart phones, which are equipped with lithium batteries and do not require "deep discharge".

Charging your phone after it runs out of power will shorten the battery life. It is recommended that you charge it immediately when the battery is low.

3. Do not use low-quality charging cables and chargers

In life, some friends accidentally damage or lose the original data cable, and then buy a third-party data cable as a replacement.

This type of data cable is likely to be a low-quality product or incompatible with the mobile phone model, resulting in problems such as unstable battery cells and unstable charging current, which are particularly prone to safety accidents.

If the mobile phone data cable or charger is lost or damaged, it is recommended to purchase supporting equipment from the official website of the mobile phone, which will help extend the battery life of the mobile phone.

4. Don’t charge for a long time

Many friends are used to playing with their phones at night and then turning off the lights to go to bed. At this time, they will charge their phones, and they will charge them all night. This practice not only affects sleep, but also affects battery life.

If the phone is still connected to the Internet and has functions such as push notifications turned on during charging, a new round of power consumption will start after the phone is fully charged and powered off, and the phone battery may enter a frequent charge and discharge cycle.

Don’t leave your phone charging overnight. It’s recommended to develop a daily habit to charge your phone at specific times.

5. Do not charge in high temperature environment

Hot weather is also a challenge for charging smartphones, because mobile phone batteries are very sensitive to high temperatures. The charging of the mobile phone itself will generate heat, and excessively high temperatures are not conducive to charging the phone.

That’s all for today’s tips on mobile phone charging! Do you know them all?
