For optimal use/preserve health ratio charge from 30 to 85%. Never leave phones/tablets/laptops in direct sunlight or in a hot car. Look through your settings, you might find a "limit battery charge" option. Some laptops have a battery utility program that allows you to stop charging once the battery reaches a certain percentage. This is especially useful for people who almost never disconnect their laptop from the charger. Set it to 50-65%, if you're one of those people, since this is the best charge state for stored lithium ion batteries. Only fast charge when you're in a hurry. Follow this advice strictly and enjoy >95% capacity after 2 years.
What abort wireless charging? Is that okey?
@@jenislyjensen From what I know wireless charging is just charging through magnetic connections, wireless charging is much slower than normal but still the same. From what others say just limit it to 65%
Charge between 30% and 85%: Keeping your devices within this range can help prolong the overall lifespan of the battery. Avoid consistently letting the battery level drop too low or charging it to 100% regularly. Avoid direct sunlight and hot cars: Heat can have a detrimental effect on battery health, so it's essential to keep your devices away from direct sunlight or extremely hot environments like cars, as this can cause damage to the battery. Check for "limit battery charge" option: Some devices have settings that allow you to limit the battery charging level. This feature can be handy if you often keep your laptop connected to the charger. Setting it to a lower level, like 50-65%, can help optimize battery health for long-term storage. Utilize battery utility programs: Certain laptops may come with battery utility programs that offer additional customization options. These programs can include features such as stopping the charging process once the battery reaches a specific percentage. This feature is particularly useful for individuals who rarely disconnect their laptops from the charger. Fast charge sparingly: While fast charging can be convenient when you're in a hurry, it generally generates more heat and can contribute to faster battery degradation. To optimize battery health, it's advisable to reserve fast charging for when you genuinely need it and opt for regular charging most of the time.

I just ordered the S22 Ultra and I'm upgrading from my Galaxy S10. I went through the battery health and phone health application on my S10 and it clearly told me that the battery is weak and it needs to be replaced. So this sparked my interest and made me wonder was there anything that I did over the years that caused the battery to be in such poor condition. For a majority of my phone's lifespan It was fast charged. About a year to 2 years ago I stopped fast charging my phone and started using a regular wattage charger. Hopefully that gave my battery a little bit more life but it's time to trade up. Thank you for posting this video This really help me.
Unfortunately, I found your video a little too late. I used to keep my phone plugged in during the day not even thinking I was damaging the battery. Long story short, my battery swelled and busted the back off of my phone. So, I just replaced the battery and the back glass. Thank you for this information! Now I know what to do to maximize the lifespan of my new battery!
I'm still using the honor 10 since London 2018, so, the battery is showing it age now, not carrying enough power for the whole day, but the phone is running very good
I'm so glad google brought adaptive charging to my pixel 5. Still going to be sitting at 100% for a little.bit before I wake up but at least it's only there for a shorter period of time compared to many hours of sleep
I usually charge my phone from 30 to 90 percent daily.
20 80 is better
30 - 90 is better for me because when when you charge up to 80% the phone battery system doesn't reset for example when you charge 80% daily for a week you'll get 30 hours screen on time (depends on the user) but when you charge up to 90 it automatically resets. I use android btw (OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk)

Also having the ability in laptops and tablets to prevent them from charging above 50%-80% could be extremely useful for preserving the longevity of the batteries when you are using the devices plugged into external power sources for long periods of time! :)

@@onioncutterninja1535 I also recently got a new Dell laptop which actually has that feature in the MyDell system manager application so I was able to configure it to only allow the battery to charge to 80% as I’m mostly using the laptop while it’s plugged into power so it should significantly extend the life of the battery! :)

I'm replacing my P10 Lite bought in early 2018 because of the battery; he shutting down while loading apps or even when switching on (battery even at 30%). I usually charge it when below 10% and usually keep it on the juice at night...
This video went right over my head
To bring you up to speed my S21 Ultra is able to be charged with a 45 watt charger in about 55 minutes and the phone is never hot it's just normal neutral and it's because the charger that I buy are the ones that control the heat and they have a type of air conditioning unit inside their charging system which cools it off some phones do too but the thing that I wanted to mention is that my phone never gets hot and if it gets a little warm it's about as much as it gets and I'm using a 45 watt charger.
Whats the brand of your chargers?
For the love of god use punctuation
I use the 67w charger that came with my phone and the hottest it gets is 37.6 Celsius... I'll try a 33w and 18w ones I got from older phones, we'll see how hot it gets... If it's better to charge faster but slightly hotter or will 33w and 18w charge the phone without getting more than 5 Celsius above the regular temperature? (around 30 Celsius).

What made me move from wired charging to wireless is USB-C slots eventually just...stop working properly. After 3 or 4 years of use, my Oneplus 5T's USB-C socket, while clean, just started to refuse to charge or detect when plugged in. You had to push the cable in really hard to get the phone to detect it was connected, and then would charge, but wouldn't fast charge, and the cable would only work when plugged in one way up, if you flipped it over it wouldn't detect anything. Really annoying.
nah wireless charging produces more heat
Why the hell you guys use wireless charging?I mean what's the point?If you can move the phone in a room and walk around with it and phone gets slowly charged I get it but when you can't even touch the phone and move why even bother?
You mentioned the best kind of charging isn't fast or slow - it's smart. What do you think about using battery limiters? I found a device called Chargie and it allowed me to stop charging at 80%. I thing that's Smart Charging.
I use a Nexus 6p with android oereo. I noticed that if I charge it to 90% or anywhere below 100% it finds it hard to calculate the estimated time, it will not drop correctly, because the estimated will keep changing and prematurely drops the percentage. However, whenever I charge it at a 100%, it drops normally. Something weird is probably going on with the device health service app. It's funny because if the percentage drops because of the ET when I pluged it in after using it, I will see it jumping for example from 20% to 27% is like the 7% of the battery telling me "here we are. we are not dead, just hiding." do anyone have any ideas?
October 2023. Still using my samsung S7 Edge comfortably for the past 6 years and 8 months . I use it for many hours each day . No gaming . Probably my battery doesn't last as long and it used to . But the difference is not that noticeable. I tend to use my mobile while charging often. Also, I tend to sometimes keep the charger connected while the battery is full for extended times . Plus using it while full and connected! It occasionally lags. It's usually smooth .
I just charge fully overnight, I sometimes even top up over lunch. If you only ever charge to 80% then you’re basically pretending like your battery is years old and stunted anyway. My phone is over a year old now and the battery is at 96% health this way.
What phone you got?
@@JackHackett1 iPhone 11 Pro
You charge till 100% when you really need it or go outside like for a vacation or something. I am easily able to spend my day in office by charging from 20 to 80%. If this way I can elongate my phone's battery health and can actually use it's full potential when I need it during trips/vacations then why not. On Android devices you can even root it and install third party apps which stops charging when it reaches 80% or you can customize it.

Do you have any tips to do it with xiaomi and Samsung devices
Listen … my battery drains by its self from 89% down normally … however the moment I charge it to 90% or higher it doesn’t move. I have to turn my phone off then back on but let’s say I charge it to 96% I can be on it for a hour it’ll stay at 96% but when I turn it off and right back on it may jump to 96% then it starts to go down normally. I think it’s so weird I don’t know why it’s doing that. Or let’s say if I charge my phone in the 90% and power it off and on it jumps to a higher percentage in the 90 range. It only does this when it’s in the 90% ‘s I use the fast charger been using it since I got my phone. Any answers to why. I have a iPhone 14 pro max
Thanks, Great info.
I have fast charge 44w with my mobile so I can use that fast charge to charge my mobile or not to charge with that 44w charger ?
Just was at a phone repair shop, he cited the memory effect. That was counter to all the advice I ever heard. So, I checked my phone settings and it had a "max 85%" charge setting... came here to learn something. Thanks!
Bro how to check it? Can you teach me?
That doesn't occur in modern smartphone batteries it on ever occurred in the old day Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries which are no longer used anymore in smartphones
@@stephensnell5707 Xperia phones got a battery limiter setting
Yeah, I usually charge until like 95-ish% - Like why have a big battery if youre barely using it on one hand - on the other hand why ruin it even more just to get these last couple of percents. I usually just keep an eye on temps. If I do a full fast charging cycle in one run 2-100% which takes around 20 Minutes (Xiaomi 12 Pro @120W with boost charging turned on) my battery reaches peak temperatures of upto 46°C but doesnt sit there long. Especially the first 50% go up super fast (takes just over 6 minutes) and thats where it reaches these temps. Since the battery is already filled up to some degree charging slows down more and more making the phone cool down - once at 65% the temps are at much cooler 40°C. And past 75% were back to 37°C - staying there. Should I be worried and rather only charge super fast if I'm in a hurry? I mean I paid for the super fast charging - I'm gonna use it anyway - I just wonder how much I should use it. I wanna stick with my phones usually 3-4 Years each. Oh yeah - usually I start charging when I'm in the 20-25% range - or when I go outside and I know I will need more battery than just 70% (this most of the time actually is enough).
Should i upgrade my s8 to the a71?
I have to charge my phone 3-4 times a day because I do heavy gaming so is there anyway for the battery to drain less? Btw the video was soooo helpful
Do less gaming. Your battery will definitely drain faster with gaming. Cause and effect.
What correct to charge phone? This year.
Keeping the phone between 20-80% is actually counterintuitive because you are giving up 40% of battery capacity already which is worse than a 2 year old battery The less you use of the battery the more wasted capacity and shorter overall battery life you have There is no real solution you either fully enjoy the battery in first year and cope with degradation after that or you can use only 70% and face the reduced battery effect immediately Dont forget you can always replace your battery after 16 months or so
@Six Months Later Memes Also if you want to limit the heat from fast charging you can disable fast charging before you sleep(from settings) and let the phone charge slowly overnight while being cool And enable it when you wake up
@Six Months Later Memes I dont think Samsung has such feature
@Milton Keenes how long it last greatly depends on usage.. the same phone can last less than a day or 2 days. Also budget phones have a weaker and more efficient processor also their display doesn't consume as much battery because of lower resolution and refresh rate
The point is if you wish to use your battery's full capacity when required after a year of purchase at that time you will feel that the battery has degraded. If you can manage your entire day with 30-80% battery life cycle then why charge it till 100% and degrade the longevity ? When I know I may not be able to charge my phone while being on a trip or vacation or when I know I will need more juice as I am attending a party and I will have to click more photos and videos, then I charge it 100% and use my battery's full potential like it's the day One of purchase even after 2 years.
@Milton Keenes I agree with you. But most of the mobiles do not have 5000 mah battery. And 5000 mah battery also means 200gm + weight which is bulky and not very handy to use. That's why most of the manufacturers stay at around 4k-4500mah max and after 2 years of usage the SOT degrades to 3-4hrs.
Useful tips!

Been using a OP 7 pro since 2019 the capacity has dropped to 54% in 3 years... Battery range was 15%-95% didn't know much about battery optimization but better late than never lol
and how know your battery capacity ? Accubattery ?
I've never followed any kind of battery recharging regimen and my stuff still works after years of use (iPod touch gen 2 bought new, DeWalt drills bought in the 2000s and on and on ...)
My cell phone I presumed already has factory setting to detect low battery power. Therefore if I did inadvertently reach at a "0%" juice left......again, then my cell phone would prompt me and indicate, " slow charge" or change to the correct charger cable. Some other warning similar to it. The battery is good, not the same though. Factory setting, not that much. Battery will charge on your phone, but not the same way. Stop and charge up on point, once you predict or see that you've reach below this mark. Zero < 30% battery power left. Stay above 30 > though to avoid the batteries reserve warning. I noticed that my phone charged at a higher rate just before I reach 30% hurdle or mark. If I paid attention. Sadly, charging below 30% reserve, forced me to charge it up (slow), I would then overlook the, " slow charging" or the "incorrect charger cable" prompts by powering off. The battery will charge quicker. Either way I had to eventually replace the battery. Less of a hussle that way.
I don't understand what is correct on this topic. The method expressed in this video is what I started doing with my Galaxy S9 after 14 months of use, and that's actually when I started seeing the battery life degrade to what it is now (battery will start quickly plummeting down as early as at 65%). On the flip side, I was told by a battery store to instead always charge up to 100% when possible, and never dip below 50% (something to do with life cycles that they explained). Of course though, they're in the business of selling batteries, but it speaks to the conflicting accounts on this topic.
Some power banks has a battery chemistry of Lithium Iron Phosphate has more cycles reaching 80 percent of its capacity than the lithium ion and lithium polymer.
So, the reason to charge from 20%-80% is because the amount the battery charged is around 60% making it less than 1 charge cycle (based on AccuBattery: around 0.4 cycle). Can i apply it to 30%-90% and 40%-100%?
Wasting 20% capacity means a heavy user would never get very far each day with just 80% charge For example on some days I use my Samsung Smartphone quite heavily thus I basically charge each night with 0 problems
I charge my phone at 30/40-90 I don't usually charge up to a 100 unless I fell asleep while it's charging but that barely happens tbh
i have an s20 ultra does using it while charging harm it please i need an answer
How do you fix it my 20 percent is not changing
My phone announces when it reaches 90 percent that it is charged, and conversely, when it reaches 15 percent, I get a notification that it needs to be charged
I charge my phone from 20% to 85% and when I charge my phone to 85% it still has 40% after 5 hours but if I charge my phone to 100% it completely dies within 3 hours. It’s surprising
50 to 90 for 4 years, still works like new batt...
Well you should use the full 100% as doing that you are wasting 10% of the battery capacity
Is it ok to cool off the phone with a fan while charging? Also I sometimes put my phone on top of a ice pack while charging that way it doesn't heat up . I only do that for a few minutes.
Fan is definitely harmless and likely to be good for the battery. Ice could be risky.

@@SGoswami41 șome voltages differ greatly then as those charter are trash
Quick charging risk to battery wear is overrated. Let's say, a 65W 0-80 charge is likely to get the battery to around 42°C tops, a 30W one would go something like 37°C. To a 100 percent temperature will actually decrease in both situations due to how charging has to be done. And they stay at this elevated temperature for just a very short period during it's lifespan. But about charging it to 100 percent only when necessary, it's good advice.
That's why I like Sony's battery care feature

I've been using my Honor v10 for almost 3 years now and I've been maintaining the charge between 40 and 80% from day one. The battery has degraded a bit, but I would guess it's still around 85% of it's original performance. So in my experience keeping the phone off the charger when you're in the aforementioned range does help a lot. It's also easier now in covid times, when we're around chargers all the time anyway.
40-85?...so you effectively have been using only 45% of your capacity?...it's like you are using a degraded battery!, i really don't see the point.
@@dxdux well it's battery is around 3800 mah. And I never leave the house. So I might as well plug it in every once in a while.
And ofc I don't mean that I never charge it to 100%. I did it a few times when I knew I was going to need the full capacity. But most often than not I'm at home or at the office.
@@samuelvarga3223 Ah OK, still maybe 40-85 is a little bit extreme but i get your point.
I‘m using my Huawei P10 since exactly 3 years. I charged it with the Supercharger from near dead to full overnight all the time, the one thing i avoided was heat. Today I measured its capacity with Accubattery by doing a full cycle and I still have 87% left. Charging doesn‘t have that big of an impact anymore, the devices know what they are doing and 100% on your phone are never 100% on your battery and the same goes for 0%. The P10 has a battery that reaches full capacity at 4.4 volts and should be dead around 3.3-3.4 volts. If the phone shows 100% its charged to 4.3 volts and at 0% its at 3.6 volts. So it‘s kept somwhere between 20-90% on its own.
20-90% charge good?
80 is ideal...86-90 is tolerable
I use wireless on my s20 plus and turn off fast charge. Takes about 4 hours to charge that way. But it is cooler and I only really need to charge at night
It will still degrade the battery though slow or fast charge it does not make any difference. The battery will still degrade overtime.

I'd rather change the battery when needed, than babysitting the battery & not being able to get the best SOT from my phone. Battery literally starts to degrade after 1.5-2 years. These stuff is for super duper babysitters. Phones & chargers nowadays are programmed to stop charging your phone when its fully charged. Also like every phone slows down charging at the end to reduce heating.

Now that I have a phone with a giant enough battery (5000 mAh), I only charge my phone to 80 percent each night (with a 15W charger). And even then my battery depletes to about 30 percent by night-time. Hopefully this helps the battery health in long run.
Try to fully charge it sometimes. It will delete the battery States. bin which is good. Fully charging is good.
What phone do you have?
Go to settings>click More>Advanced>Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep=select "Never". In same menu, you can turn off "Always allow scanning" and "Network notification". That should dramatically reduce the cell standby. .. try this options bro.. even i was getting a drain on battery sometimes on my new device.. i did this settings and turned off the options for wifi scanning and bluetooth scannning when the phone is locked.. i think it has helped me a lot i will update u if doing this has helped me or not . U also do the same and yeah one more thing .. download accu battery app that app is very informative for checking the battery drain percentages
So what's the appropriate percent to charge ur phone to secure a healthy battery life
20 to 80%
does it use my battery if im using my phone while it is plugged in？
*Are you killi-* *Bruh yes i am*
Been under charging my battery to 75-80% and using a slow (low wattage) charger and I'm at 98% battery health after 221 charging cycles. By comparison my spouse charges to 100% all the time with the same model phone and his is at 93% after 231 cycles ... Doesn't sound like much but that is a 5% difference in almost a year.
I charge my phone when I go to sleep and unplug the charger after waking up
That Zenfone 7 Pro look grrrreat!!! 😀😀😀
2:15 don't modern phones automatically detect a full charge and stop charging? That way leaving it charging overnight dosen't do anything to the battery. That's what I have heard multiple times from online tech articles from sites like Forbes, Tech Insider and others...Now I'm seriously confused.
That's not the topic which is being explained here.
@@vikrraal Yes it is.🤷🏻♂️ You don't even have to watch the video to realise that. It's right there in the title.🤦🏻♂️ Unless ofc you misread my comment or you're a troll.🤡
@@Noproblem396 if you actually watched the video or don't lack comprehension ability you wouldn't have asked this unrelated question.
@@vikrraal I don't argue with regards man.😄 Good day✌🏻
@@Noproblem396 Thanks for actually accepting that you did not understand the video by deflecting it. 🤣🤣 ciao
Phones today are all smart they manage the charging and when it is at 100% it stops my phone does have that charge to only 80% but looking into this it might add few days of battery during its entire life, I don't think that it is worth 20% of your batteries charge. The best thing you can do is to try and never let your battery die that is really hard on them everything else just let the phone handle it.
My phone charging voltage dropped under 3.55 not charging when 4 voltage starts charging normal
I have heard so many different conflicting things, usually I change my phone every year or two years anyway so hopefully it won't matter too much, I did just get a new phone so that's why I'm watching this and I just watched a few other that say different things so I guess I'll just charge what I want to idk... When I'm going to be going out I do like my phone to be 100% though or at least close enough to it.
yeah it doesn't matter anymore because smartphone industry is simply get better every year, i always charge my phone at 20% and unplugged at 100% (no overnight of course) and my phone last 4 years with no battery issues
@@lonelybob1902you CAN charge a Modern Smartphone at night as there is no danger of doing it I charge my Smartphone each night as my Smartphone cuts the power automatically once the battery is 100% full I charge to 100% each night as I do use my phone quite a lot each day and a Smartphone I have will still last me as long as 6 years(The battery life also will get me as fsr as 6 years too) I only ever change my Smartphone once every 6 years
I charge upto 98% but I don't charge overnight and i only discharge upto 50% only sometimes even less than that. So i can expect a better battery Motorola phones for unknown reasons trickle charge even slower other smartphone
I charge my phone every night to 100% with a fast charger. I really don't mind my battery degrade 1% more over 2 years. Ill swap phones anyway or replace the battery for a new one if I want to use it longer.
It's degrading much more than just 1% over that period of time
Replace battery ? First of all is it possible ? Second after only 1 year of mobile launch finding some parts are so difficult that service centers either advice you to change the motherboard or buy a new phone. Finding a new battery after 2, 3 years ??
@@vikrraal yeah whats so mysterious ?
