When it comes to technology, there are many ways to maximize the lifespan of mobile devices. An element that influences when determining the capacity of a device is the battery.
Experts have already said that there are certain habits that can make the battery of mobile devices more or less durable. Therefore, here we tell you some of these that will allow you to protect your battery for longer.
According to Felipe Lizcano, Co-Founder of TECHcetera and Red Design Systems, “we must keep in mind that batteries have a series of charging cycles that determine their useful life, so if they are recharged at all times, they will become “We spend those cycles and the battery will give way more quickly than expected.”
Therefore, as a first tip to take care of the battery of the devices, Gustavo Torres, director of the Technology Media tecnogus.com.co, recommends starting charging cycles whenever necessary, this according to the expert would be between 1% and 19 %.
Experts agree that the second piece of advice would be not to let the device discharge completely, which according to Lizcano “is usually bad for the useful life of the battery”, so it is important not to allow the device to turn off.
The third point on this list, according to Torres, is that when charging devices, original chargers and cables should always be used, or products that have brand certification. This would avoid situations such as overheating and voltages not being what the device needs and causing short or long-term damage to the battery.
Ending the charging cycles would be the fourth recommendation. According to Torres, “from the moment it is connected, it must be allowed to reach a full charge without interruptions,” and if possible allow the device to charge, minimizing its use during the process.
Just as there are recommendations, there are also myths such as that leaving the device charging all night can damage the battery in the long term. In this regard, Lizcano explained that “this is a myth because the batteries of the most modern devices use artificial intelligence to learn about the user’s habits, (…) what the device does is according to habit, it charges a large part of the capacity in at night and a few hours before the user gets up it finishes charging”
These recommendations do not guarantee an exact average battery life, but according to Torres, the useful life of the battery can be extended, in this sense “the phone will have a better useful life, there will be prevent the lithium units, the batteries, from bulging and it will have a correct useful life.”
Torres also stated that the time in which the phones, with the exception of iPhones, would be working correctly would be between two and three years. Therefore, the recommendations would guarantee correct operation for this period of time.
