SUMMARY
-You’ll be perfectly fine if you just buy a phone, take it out of the box, and start using it right away.
-It doesn’t matter whether you’re using your phone while charging or not, it’ll still charge the same exact way.
-If the charger works well enough, it won’t harm your mobile device. So if you need to urgently charge your phone in an emergency or the factory charger it came with doesn’t work anymore, you can get any cheap version that’s compatible with your smartphone.
-If you simply shut your device off from time to time, nothing dramatic will happen. In fact, some devices may actually start working more effectively after you reboot them.
-Feel free to charge your phone even if the battery is as full as 90%. Charging your phone frequently doesn’t hurt the battery.
-If you wanna extend your battery’s lifespan, keep it charged between 40 and 80%. Believe it or not, this actually helps the battery live the longest.
-Freezing your phone does nothing more than kill the battery. The thing is that lithium-ion batteries react badly to both cold and heat.
-The built-in system on your phone is already dealing with everything that should be done to keep your device’s performance in tip-top shape. As for third-party task managers, they’re actually more likely to decrease your phone’s performance.
-It’s perfectly safe to leave your charger plugged in unless you have a damaged charger, pets at home, or no lightning protection.
-Experts recommend discharging your laptop to zero percent no more than once a month.
-If you’re just surfing the Net or reading articles, it doesn’t influence your battery life any more than listening to music does.
-Wi-Fi consumes even less energy than your smartphone needs to maintain the cellular data connection.
-Avoid leaving your smartphone, tablet, or laptop in direct sunlight or in a hot car. And definitely don’t take your gadgets to a hot place, like the beach or sauna.
-The problem with storing batteries is that they lose their charge over time. And when this charge drops to zero, your battery will automatically kill itself so that it doesn’t become unstable.

My phone is a mistake sometimes XD Once I wanted to watch a youtube video by using this phone at 95% it dies to 0% and then if you turn it of my phone lies to you
consider this, a battery has two parts, while the first part is being charged, you use the second part of the battery, then, when the first part dies or the second part gets fully charged, they switch.
5:22 what?! In previous videos you said that charging your phone will damage the battery! And now you're saying it will not?!??
#2 is incorrect, charging the phone warms the battery, using it will also heat the battery. Combining them can damage your phone battery. I used to use it while it was charging, the battery ended up not being able to be used except when it is on the charger, then just not being able to hold a charge completely!
ok this place was great
I am putting the mobile to charge for long time.
Actually I sleep
Forget to remove the charger.
Wht will happen, if I do like this?
2 & half years later i have never left my iphone – 7 run over the 100% & still works like the day i got it,and never flood it with un-wanted Social Media or Others i use as a Smartphone with DuckDuckGo for a simple non Tracking Browser. Not a single scratch on it as it's good to keep-in a solid cover Apple have just dished out 13.2.2. and it's class with a Battery Patch With It Too For Saving Your Battery
Keep in mind the news has said to not use phones while their charging. It can over heat and some people have died. They were watching videos or hearing music with head phones while it was charging. They fell asleep and the phone over heated causing them to get electrocuted or burned. Doesn't happen to everyone but why take the chance.
Just use a mechanical device w timer to avoid overcharging
Samsung still says to fully charge the phone fully before use.
5:00–5:30. Here you guys say leaving it plugged in overnight is no problem and the frequency of charging doesn’t affect the battery, but in the other video you guys made, you said that it isn’t good for it since it goes from 100% to 99% over and over all night which wears your battery overtime.
BRIGHT SIDE: "Mistake Number 12"
Screen: "#11: Turning off…"
Me: ???….. YES!
my iphone 7 shows a bolt of lightining in the green charge ?
You have video that says dont charge your battery at night and i watched this video. I am confused what to believe now.. i watch most of your videos and i believe all of that videos and now i am enlighted that your not a factual source..
,q
Hard but best way to solve this battery problem spend 10 to 30 bucks for a new battery depend on your phone it will be easy if you have a samsung note 3 or something then just remove the back take the battery out and put the new battery in easy but if you have like a iPhone 8 or something oh that going to take like an hour to remove and put the battery in
I was watching a exciding video and it was at the really good part then it just turned off…
Turning off WiFi doesn't prolong the battery life, it just decreases it because the phone is always looking for connection
My chargher broke when i stayed too much with it in charge
Reduce this video to 2 minutes, and I'll give it a thumbs up. Too much information. Get to the point already.
Uhmm dont you literally have a video about why you shouldnt charge your phone over night???
A-ha so that's what's draining my battery watching brightside videos.?

Ahem… according to one of your videos charging overnight is dangerous to your phone battery, and makes it drain faster.
1. phone already regulates the battery to charge up to 80% but it shows 100%.
2. when battery drops to 0% it doesn't die.
3. internet uses your battery the most.
4. lithium ion batteries don't care if they are 150F or 30F.
You posted a video about the damages of charging at night but in this video you said there is no damages in charging battery at night
Hindi me bol
This channel contradicts itself. In this video, it says "you can charge your phone with any cheap cable". Yet, in another video "The expensive charging cables have the best chips inside to prevent damage during charging". LOL
What if if battery is zero
My laptop battery completely died i used to plug it all the time
My sister's phone battery bulged she used to change her phone over night
Vivo charging with my Samsung phone it actually charges my phone more powerful
same channel different Video contradicting each other regarding charing the phone overnight. other video said can damage battery and this video not.
You're only half right about the Droid turbo, yes it has a charger specifically for it to charge only but it's the brick you have to have, you can buy any cable for it and it'll still charge exactly the same, however if you lose the charging brick then you might as well just buy a new one all together
Wow what’s wrong charging your phone from your laptop it’s not dangerous it’s trying many times and it worked!
What is charging battery from 40to 80???
This man is lying maybe he was sent by battery companies he wants us to destroy our batteries
I really hope brightside isnt lying on #2
Theres NO liquid in a charger to leak out of it tho….
I just charge my phone to 100% at night, unplug it, then go to sleep.
So it already has full battery by the time I get up in the morning.
Re: #6 you have another video saying don't charge a phone overnight.
