Most of us don’t think much about how or when we charge our phones. Some people let their phone die completely, others plug it in every night without a second thought. But there’s actually more to it. Your phone’s battery charges and degrades over time, and how you charge it can play a role in that.
The idea that we shouldn’t charge our phones to 100% has become one of the biggest battery myths around. It sounds logical that if too much power can cause heat or even fires, then surely a full battery can 'overload', right? But is that really what’s happening?
