Since I brought my phone one month ago I never let it run down completely I rather switch it off at 20 percent than run it down

Then of what use is a shiny new smartphone, if you'll rather put it off when it's still got 20% battery juice? undecided

The lowest my battery had been is 10% I read that letting battery to die completely shortened the lifespan so I no wan begin they look for another battery.
I either put it off at that level or leave it on stand still mode.

I get your point but don't you think it's an overkill since the phone is just a month old? Coz the battery is gonna die eventually.

Hope you know 20% can still get you 5 to 8 hours with data turned off?

A battery is the most important component of any smartphone. There are some phone batteries that take seconds to charge and at the same time, it takes seconds to drain. This can be very annoying because it limits you the things you can do with your phone like taking selfies, listening to music and watching videos. Therefore, it is important to charge your phone properly in order to prevent the damage of your battery or its quick charge. Here are some tips to prevent the damage of your battery while charging your phone.

Always use the charger that comes with your phone

If you bought a new phone, it is better to always use the charger that came with your phone whenever you want to charge. But if you bought fairly used, do not just buy any charger. Using any charger to charge your phone can damage your gadget or battery.

Keep your phone cool, dry place

The position you place your battery is important. Do not place it in a hot place for example, where the rays of the sun can reach it. Your battery will drain faster when it is hot. As a caveat, it is better you unplug it when it is hot and always disconnect it whenever it is fully charged.

Don't Calibrate your Battery

Calibrating your battery means that you want your android phone to properly report the percentage charge of your device. Many phone users calibrate their phones when it moves from nearly full to nearly empty. Notwithstanding, you do not need to calibrate your battery. It is either you replace your battery or use it like that. If you rely on calibration to boost your battery, it can destroy your battery and device.

Intermittent charging

Rather than charging your phone at a go, it is better to charge it intermittently throughout the day. That means charge only charge your phone when it is under 50% and not expressly allowing it to charge.

Keep your device half full

Your phone do not need to charge 100% before you remove it. To make your battery last longer, always keep it charged above 50%.

I really understand your tips. It seems you are living outside Naija. I no go get for 3days when light go come I go still changed phone half. My Bro, to change phone you must on your Generator at least for an hour. In all I thank Fashola ( a serious Govt can solve Power problem in 6 Months) for trowing the country into darkness and I seriously thank the change Govt for not changing Fashola after 6months in Power Ministry and for in seriousness.

My battery is a 4000 mah capacity so by the time it will get to that level It must have been late in the night and I may not really have need to use it till I charge again. As a former BlackBerry user my battery frustrated me to the extent of having four batteries and power bank then when the prices was favorable not now everything have skyrocketed so I have to manage the one I got the best way possible

I don't agree with point number 4 - intermittent charging...

There is such a thing as "Charging cycle". This refers to the number of times you can re-charge the battery before it starts to degrade.

What this means is that the frequency with which you recharge a battery determines its lifespan! smiley
