I charge my iPhone 12 when it hits 30 or 40, and unplug it at 80%. I did it more than charging to 100%. Used 5w more often than 20w anker (only if I need fast charging). When I charge to 100%, I have an app that alarms so I unplug it on time so this phone had never been overcharged. I have 90% battery health left, on January 5th my warranty will end. For ya’ll strictly following the 30-80, it’s not worth it. Charge and unplug it whenever you want. Just enjoy your phone.
Hi all!
I just got a new phone I want to settle a couple of questions that appeared out of nowhere.
First of all, what are the best practices when charging the phone? I have read stuff like that I shouldn't really let the battery get all the way to 5% or so, but instead charge it when it's at 30%. Also, I should try to disconnect the phone from the charger before reaching 100%.
Is this true? Is charging multiple times for shorter periods better than charging fewer times for longer periods?
What about charging at night? Should I avoid leaving my phone on the charger the whole night long?
What about the quick charging? I have heard that those aren't really good for the battery and that they shouldn't be always used. Is there any truth here? Many phone manufacturers sell their phones without the quick chargers...
How to keep the battery in the best possible condition, given some normal phone usage?
Thanks! :)
I got a phone stand Qi charger and it's awesome, but is it bad to keep it charging all day every day while I sit at my desk?
Good day, everyone!
I wanna ask about charging the phone overnight while it's turned off. As far as I know, it is bad to charge a phone overnight when it's turned on because it is trickle charging the phone, since again, IT'S TURNED ON.
Now I wanna ask if the matter is that if it's turned off. Since the phone is turned off, no background processes would happen to lessen the battery, and also, the room is a little bit cooled, so I can assure you that it's all good.
So one question of mine, is it okay to leave the phone charging overnight while it's turned off? Thanks for people who would answer this question because I'm so curious about it.

>The charging power for smartphones is consistently increasing and smartphones can now get a full charge in less than 15 minutes. Today, Weibo tech blogger, DCS, claims that 150W fast charging for smartphones is on its way. According to him, this fast charging technology will enter mass production very soon. Unfortunately, he did not reveal the manufacturer that will launch this technology.
I cannot leave anything plugged in and charging over night because I am so terrified that it’s going to overheat and catch on fire in my sleep. One night I had to leave my phone plugged in over night so I bit the bullet and did it anyways. Nothing happened!
(I still don’t like to leave anything plugged in over night)
I had a UTI. I left my Dr’s nurse a voicemail, as I’ve done for as long as I can remember, asking for them to call meds into the pharmacy. My Dr knows I’m on a high deductible plan for a while and works with me to ensure proper insurance coding. This time her nurse called back and said we needed to set up a telehealth. They’ve never done it before but I just figured she got more tech savvy from Covid. Two months later and I got a 155$ bill for a 30 second “telehealth” where my Dr basically just verified my pharmacy. If I had known it would be that much I would’ve toughed it out and drank cranberry juice. The 30$ for the meds was already ridiculous. When I called the dr’s billing person she gave me this speech about Covid and safety protocols. It was bizarre. I don’t know if she’s new or if they need the cash but I feel duped and tricked and stuck with this bill I can’t pay. What do I do to get the price down?
Disappointed again 😟 , south Devon.
