Older phones eventually stop working because the batteries are gradually deteriorated by normal charging practices. These six charging practices are depleting the battery on your smartphones.
1. Charging up to 100%
Your battery doesn't need to be charged immediately as it falls below 90%. Keeping your phone's battery strong doesn't always mean keeping it fully charged. Experts advise keeping your phone's battery somewhere in the range of thirty to eighty percent charged, noting that this is when it will operate most comfortably and effectively.
2. Allowing your phone to die
When lithium ion batteries reach low power, they start to become volatile. The phone battery experiences a slight decrease with each full discharge. To "calibrate" the battery gauge, Apple as well as other experts advise letting the phone run completely out of power every one to two months.
3. The battery overheating
It is still crucial even though there might not be a charging problem with this. After being out in the sun for some time, you might notice that your phone occasionally starts to lag. This is because iPhone batteries have to work harder in extremely cold or extremely hot weather because they detest such conditions. Apple claims that the optimal temperature for iPhones, iPads, iPods, and Apple smart watches ranges between 32 and 95 degrees.
4. Making excessive use of your wireless charger
When you leave the house, Mophie storage and protective cases for iPhone batteries come in handy. They are compatible with wireless chargers. Regretfully, when charging your iPhone, heat is released by both the battery and the case, which may cause long-term harm to your gadget. Consider using a portable power source that isn't attached to your phone to prevent overheating.
5. Keeping the case open while charging
While the cell phone is charging, put the Mophie storage case off. It's possible that the Mophie storage case is trapping in heat generated during charging if your phone feels overly hot while plugged in.
6. Using an incorrect charger
Cheap, unauthorized third-party USB cords are not meant to be used with your Apple-issued charger; instead, they may cause damage to the battery. Your Apple-issued charger is made to shut off power when the battery reaches 100%.
