Using your phone charger incorrectly can cause your battery to quickly lose its charge.

Each person has their own approach to charging their gadget: some charge it constantly, while others only charge it when the battery level is almost empty.

It is very important to know how to charge your phone properly to make your battery last longer.

Many people wait until their phone is fully charged. However, experts recommend maintaining a charge between 40 and 80 percent.

In this range, the load on the battery is minimal, which significantly increases its service life.

If you charge your phone to the maximum, the battery will be in a state of constant voltage, which will negatively affect its longevity.

Errors that can lead to battery damage:

1.  Avoid charging your phone in hot areas or in direct sunlight. Choose a cool, out-of-the-way location for charging.

2.  Avoid using your phone while it’s charging. During this time, the device not only won’t charge, but it will also start to overheat. If your phone overheats, it may perform worse or even shut down completely.

3.  Use only the original charger. Chinese counterfeits can damage your battery.

Non-original chargers can cause oxidation and damage to the chips inside the phone. Therefore, it is very important to charge the phone only with its own charger.
