You might not notice, but the way you charge your phone hugely affects its battery life, energy bills, and even safety. Modern phone batteries are built for a limited number of charge cycles, so avoid fully charging or draining them. We're excited to share key tips on charging your phone correctly to maximize its potential and keep you safe.
1. You never take your charger out of the outlet.

Always unplug the charger when it's not in use.
