Many people say that their iPhones run out of cell so fast, especially the old iPhones. But they don’t know that they’re one of the reasons for their draining- battery iPhones. More specific, the ways they charge them.
1+2. Letting the phone die and fully charge it
We usually have a habit in fueling our phone fully. Some even charge them from zero to 1oo%. However, it’s not a good way to maintain the iPhone battery strong. A battery can be full from 0 to 100% about 300 to 500 times before it expires. This full charging thing can cause stress to the battery and reduce its life. But if you just charge the phone from 0 to 50%, that battery can go through 1,200 to 1,500 times of charging.
To keep your iPhone battery long life, don’t let your iPhone get to the low battery. You should fill it when the battery left is about 30%. And then, charge it to 80%. That’s a level where the battery is most comfortable and effective. This can help you to triple, or even quadruple the recharge time. So, stop charging your cell overnight. Instead of that, charge it shorter and more frequently.

Apple iPhone 7: most exciting iphone iteration is coming!
A purported picture pops up on the Internet today makes Apple believers be full of hope of next generation iphone 7. Even though the picture is blurry and lowly qualified, it seems to be a full depiction of the upcoming flagship. Being taken directly from the vertical axis, the Apple iPhone 7 picture shows up with only a circle under the touchscreen instead of a normal button.
Apple iPhone 7 design is expected to mostly ressemble iPhone 6S in appearance. Far from being confirmed, Apple branded killer is said to be slimmer than its predecessors. Moreover, standard headphone jack is no longer counted in iPhone 7 specs. Our sources are suggesting a dual lens camera will be equipped. This high-range iPhone is also believed to pack a keyboard-friendly Smart Connector just like iPad Pros.
As mentioned above, the Home key appears to be flat with the rest of the phone screen, which seems to be a significant upgrade. It is being said the features offered by the home button will be replaced by an assessment of touch actions, including 3D Touch gestures, as soon as Apple integrates the Touch ID fingerprint sensor with the screen. Some leaks also mention about a change in internal storage capacity up to 256 GB.
Apple iPhone 7: new edge or new age!
Physical Home Button is currently a massive point of failure because it will be out of order sometimes. A capacitive sensor replacement would eliminate that weakness. This iPhone 7 touch ID would also help distinguish the iPhone 7 from its predecessor iPhone 6S. However, if the new Apple iPhone 7 model and the rumored one are alike, Apple will have to find another functional feature to give its rivals a chase like it did in the past.

Everybody loves iPhone but not all of them can afford it. In that case, many people opt for a used iPhone, which is much cheaper. So here are 5 iPhone tips for you to make sure you buy a cheap but GOOD used iPhone!
iPhone Tips: Check the phone’s security system!
Since iOs 7, Apple has established a strong security system for iPhone users to make sure they don’t lose their data or get tricked. So first, you need to verify the IMEI number from both the body and software. This is a very important iPhone tip to make sure you don’t buy an iPhone with an replaced body! You can see the IMEI number. On the back of your iPhone. Then, compare it with the IMEI number in the OS. You go to Settings => General => About and you will see the IMEI number at the bottom. If both number are the same, you can move to the 2nd step.
Second, make sure the Activation Lock is not stolen! To be clearer, if the iPhone you’re purchasing has “Find my iPhone” turned on, you won’t be allowed to do anything UNLESS you know the Apple ID of the previous owner! So there are two iPhone tips to avoid that: 1/ If the iPhone you buy is still operational, go to Settings => iCloud and turn off “Find my iPhone”; 2/ If you can’t do anything, go to icloud.com/activationlock and type in the IMEI number then you will know if the device has enabled Find my iPhone or not. So again, make sure the “Find my iPhone” is OFF, or you MUST know the Apple ID of the previous owner.
Third, make sure the IMEI is not blocked! This is a very easy iPhone tip! There is a free online tool to check if the IMEI number of the phone you’re buying is on the global blacklist! Go to swappa.com, fill in the IMEI number and wait a little while to see the result. If the iPhone is on the blacklist, DONT buy it! Because it must have been stolen from its real owner.
iPhone Tips: Take care of the data and the warranty
The forth iPhone tip you need to do is erase all the data of the previous owner. You need to unlink the current owner’s Apple ID from Settings -> iCloud (that’s why I said that you MUST know the previous ID). Then, you go to General => Reset => Erase All Content and Settings to remove all date from the iPhone. Last but not least, you should check if the phone is legit. You can go to checkcoverage.apple.com and fill in the serial number of the iPhone you’re buying. If you can go to next page, that phone is legit. The serial number can be found on the back of the phone. By this, you will also know the phone’s warranty period and purchase date.
