🔋 1. Charging Your Phone to 100% Too Often

Many people keep their phone plugged in overnight or charge it to full every time. But modern lithium-ion batteries degrade faster when constantly kept at 100%.

Why This Happens

• Full charges put added stress on the battery

• Extended overnight charging increases heat buildup

What to Do

• Keep battery between 20%–80%

• Only charge to 100% if you truly need it (traveling, long days, emergencies)

📉 2. Letting Your Phone Battery Drain to 0%

Completely draining your battery frequently is harmful. While it may seem normal, it puts unnecessary wear on the battery cycle.

Better Approach

• Charge at 20–30%

• Avoid “deep discharge” unless recalibrating occasionally

🔥 3. Using Your Phone in High or Low Temperatures

Temperature is one of the biggest enemies of battery health. Heat especially can permanently damage internal battery cells.

Examples of Temperature Damage

• Leaving phone in a hot car

• Using heavy apps while charging (causes overheating)

• Direct sunlight exposure

Fix

• Keep phone cool

• Remove phone case during charging if it gets hot

• Avoid heavy gaming or video recording while charging
