You are wrong about the number 2


Charger your phone over night for days and see the results. Either your phone battery drained fast or got spoil by swell up
Nope, u are the one that's wrong. I have been doing it consistently for God knows how long but my battery is still intact, working very well

ADDING WATER DOESN'T MAKE GARRI RISE

There was a time as kids we were all told that adding water may not make garri rise it would just make it water

Well it's false adding water makes garri rise.

Buhari reduce the price of garri angry

Op, I disagree with no 2.

I don't know for the super super smartphones (IPhone & Samsung), but for an average smartphone your battery's life will be totally fvcked (especially if you're into pressing while charging).

when your phone is fully charged, the electrons in your battery experience restricted movement (state of compactness). Continual charging of your phone when it is full (and pressing ), leads to the emission of heat from your phone, and in few months time your battery life reduces to something else.

It is true charging with generator or power bank will reduce life span of d battery?
Re: Battery Myths You Need To Stop Believing by mediocre(m): 9:29am On Mar 07, 2018
That number one is very annoying sha. They even do it with lamps ....facepalm
Re: Battery Myths You Need To Stop Believing by Nobody: 9:30am On Mar 07, 2018
Another myth is seeing a power bank of "50000 mah" and instantly believing that it's more power than "5400mah" �����

The key word here is weight. A heavier power bank is more power than a lighter one
Re: Battery Myths You Need To Stop Believing by nurez305(m): 9:40am On Mar 07, 2018
Also on your first charge, do not use generator to charge it, use nepa light grin grin grin

How good is this Tecno Camon CM.... And what's the capacity of the battery?

Very good. The battery is meh, average though. But a very well built Tecno phone (my first Techno phone) despite being slim in thickness.

It depends on the generator. There's what we call "condensed power".
Electricity form small generators is not condensed. Therefore, their charge on batteries will dissipate quickly. And vice versa!

How 'bout using the phone while it's charging and when it's full but still plugged in.
don't just answer a call with it. Or is that a myth also?

I hope so. heard 'bout a lady getting electrocuted while doing that. Later heard that it's because she was using a fake charger (it didn't come with the phone). I tire abeg. Thanks for the answer.

Nice one. Whilst some of them sounded funny, they are true. I just don't know how these myths came to be in the first place.
Re: Battery Myths You Need To Stop Believing by MrShubby: 10:44am On Mar 07, 2018
Very educating post, I use to believe this myth but ever since I started using my tecno camon cx... I sometimes forget that my phone runs on battery
