According to media reports, using smartphones while charging between 40-90% can significantly slow down the wear process and extend battery life, according to Denis Kuvikov, director of the National Technology Initiative SafeNet regional engineering center. He notes that although smartphone batteries inevitably fail, they can be more durable if they are not used in cold weather such as freezing.
Kuvikov warns that in cold weather, batteries discharge quickly and lose their performance, which shortens their service life. Thus, users can affect the wear rate of their smartphone’s battery by avoiding operating the device in adverse temperature conditions.
In addition, the expert recommends avoiding complete discharge and full charging of the battery, emphasizing that a charging interval of 40 to 90% is optimal to maintain normal operation of the device. He debunks the old myth about the need to discharge the battery to zero and notes that modern technologies and materials have made this approach obsolete.
