Battery Health: 5 Rules That Actually Help
Keep your phone’s battery happy with a few simple habits
Do this
-
Keep charge ~20–80% for daily use.
-
Avoid heat (cars, pillows, sunny dashboards).
-
Fast-charge only when needed; otherwise use a lower-watt charger.
-
Wireless is fine—if it gets warm, switch to cable or remove thick cases.
-
Overnight is OK with Optimized/Adaptive Charging enabled.
-
Travel tips: small top-ups (30–70%), USB-C PD power bank, airflow around the phone.
-
Use certified chargers & quality cables—safer, steadier, longer-lasting.
Myths (skip these)
-
“Always 0–100%.” → Partial charges are healthier.
-
“Fast charging kills batteries.” → Heat is the issue; modern phones manage current.
-
“Wireless ruins batteries.” → Misalignment/heat, not the tech itself.
