Hey devRanters, how do you charge your phone? 1) Let ist almost drop to about 1-5%, and then let it charge fully up ove

Never let your battery fall below 15%-20%, it affects it badly.

Also, never charge it to 100% for the same reason.

In general, try to keep it between 20% and 90%.

It depends on the technology of the battery: NIMH, NICD, LIPO...

@No-one Doubting is good mentality but for phones what I said is true, you can look it up.

@Plinn Right now every phone uses a lithium based battery chemistry so the 20/90 rule applies.

After 15 % by using 4g, it goes 8% in 5 second and 1% in next second,at 1% I plug it, but the switching off logo comes, Fuck that. How to be faster than time so that I reach tp the charger in the next room within 2 seconds ?

@nickpapoutsis I apply this rule but not the 90% thing. From what I've heard it's especially that the battery chemistry can be badly altered when in low voltage, due to high or low temperatures. I cringe when I see ppl leaving their computer on 0% during the winter...
