This is not true with the new\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/fully-explained-five-phone-battery-technologies\/\">lithium-ion battery<\/a> used in most current smartphones! While it is correct that smartphone batteries get worse after long time use, the capacity decrease doesn&#8217;t depend on the times of charging. Instead, it depends on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/use-battery-capacity-before-charging\/\">charging cycle<\/a>, and that cycle can be divided into shorter non-continuous charging times.\u00a0So, charge your phone whenever you want!<\/p>\n<p>The second out-of-date tip is that: charging your phone overnight may lead to the decrease in phone battery life or even cause explosion! Again, this is something not correct anymore!\u00a0Andrew Goldberg &#8211; an iFixit\u00a0technical writer has shared that smartphones nowadays are &#8220;wise&#8221; enough to not\u00a0encounter such issue. Over-charging may lead to capacity decrease, but it does so little that you cannot recognize the difference! However, if you charge your\u00a0phone in bed, make sure you won&#8217;t cover it with pillows or blankets, because it\u00a0won&#8217;t allow the heat generated inside to get out properly, and that can cause explosions.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- MY End of Content -->\n            <ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n                 style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px\"\n                 data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n                 data-ad-slot=\"7887885268\"><\/ins>\n            <script>(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});<\/script>\n            <!-- MY News Mobile Middle -->\n                                <ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n                                     style=\"display:inline-block;width:300px;height:250px\"\n                                     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n                                     data-ad-slot=\"3890141663\"><\/ins>\n                                <script>\n                                (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n                                <\/script><\/div><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-28552\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pricepony.com.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/phone-battery-life-e1473928413399.jpg\" alt=\"phone battery life\" width=\"444\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, it&#8217;s no longer true that closing your apps will help prolong\u00a0the phone battery life!\u00a0With the latest Android or iOS versions,\u00a0it&#8217;s not battery consuming if you leave an app running in the background, except for those apps that require internet connection. Meanwhile, it takes certain amount of power to completely close an app, and reopen an app again. The process of erasing an app from the RAM consumes more battery than you think!<\/p>\n<h3>Phone battery life: Round-up<\/h3>\n<p>Those are the 3 most common\u00a0misconceptions about phone battery life!
