My lenovo phone battery starts misbehaving at 39%. From this point, it drops gradually to 1% in less than 5 minutes. Now I consider 50% battery level as my top up time. very annoying!

I am happy that you found it educating

Each lithium-based battery is capable of a finite number of charge-and-discharge cycles.

With each cycle, the capacity of the battery is very slightly reduced, so we want to avoid as many complete cycles as we can.

To do this, try to keep your battery’s charge level between 40 percent and 80 percent power. Of course, this won’t always be possible, but try not to let your phone’s battery level get below 40 percent too often and keep the number of complete top-offs to a minimum.

Try not to use fast charge every single time you charge your phone. Most fast or rapid charge systems cause the battery to become hot, which we now know is bad for your battery. If you’re using the fast charge option every single time, the battery is getting excess heat more often than it should, resulting in a shorter lifespan.

Earlier in this discussion, we mentioned how lithium ion batteries don’t suffer from the same cyclic memory of nickel-based batteries.

While that’s true, the internal power meter in your smartphone — the part that determines the battery’s current power level — can sometimes get thrown off.

You can recalibrate by doing a full discharge-and-charge cycle: Use your phone until it dies. Once it’s dead, charge it to full capacity while leaving its power off.

Finally, power your phone back on and make sure it reads as fully charged; if it doesn’t, power off and continue charging. Repeat this process once a month or so to make sure your battery is functioning optimally.
