Unhealthy phone charging..

I cannot begin to overemphasize the importance of charging our devices, especially our smartphones - you can relate to that. Charging is fast becoming a way of life for most people, isn't it so? My focus on this post is on smartphone charging. We even go as much as charging them overnight, but is it a healthy habit at that? Leaving your smartphone plugged-in overnight while you sleep doesn't do good to it at all. Right from the first charge after purchase the battery starts to depreciate, but even at that, not so terribly as when its ideally charged. Leaving your smartphone charged up to 100% isn't beneficial - I've done my study. Stop your charging a little above 90% or a little below 90%. Another thing, when it goes below 20% it reads red, and that's a sign of imminent depreciation. Charging at 40% is better. Worse case scenario is allowing it go battery empty. This has a negative effect on the life span of the battery. With mobile technology seeing so much development and smartphones coming out more frequently with non-removeable batteries, it makes more sense to maintain a healthy battery life if you desire to use the device for a couple of years. And here comes a typical question when you want to trade-in a smartphone: how good is its battery life? ***prbxselfnetwork***
