The turning off wifi and other broadcast to save battery is true. Your phone will constant send request and search for network access and if you are in a location with weak or no signal. That action can drain your battery very fast.
Can't agree with 2 and 10. When someone is doing heavy usage (RUclips, IG, gaming) and charging their phone at the same time.... It causes the phone to get extremely hot which could lower the life expectancy of the battery. It's the same thing as what you said for number 10 due to overheating. As someone who works on computers, overcharging is real no matter what tasks are being done on the computer. If you leave the power cord in 24/7 it will take a couple years but your battery will only last 30 minutes or less.
Arthur Byers Uhm, my phone haven't been overheating while watching RUclips for 3 hrs. Played some heavy games for 2 hrs and it indeed gets hot. But it just cools down. It's not even at 40 degrees Celsius.
@@MafiosoDon21you prune,it is way better to keep a Smartphone switched on whilst charging as switching it on after charging will waste up to 2% charge whilst the device reboots
Many great points! #9. You shouldn't leave your charger plugged in because of the continuous amount of "ghost power" that is used while it continues to convert 120v to 5v. It does damage the charger since the longer it is in use, the shorter its life span, but the issue with leaving it plugged in all the time is the amount of unnecessary kilowatt hours it can use throughout the years. Keep up the good work!
That's false Modern Smartphones automatically cut the power once the battery hits 100% I charge my phone each night and I've never had no problems at all However with my phone being 6 years old the charge doesn't last like it did when my phone was brand new
@@stephensnell1379 It is correct information according to the battery specialist who I asked ( working at a Samsung authorized repair facility specializing in batteries of all kinds). Though it doesn't charge the battery, it keeps the battery in a state of stress and can drastically shorten a battery's life. I have also experienced this first hand with an Apple device and a Samsung device. Maybe not every device will have the issue (and I'm glad yours did not), but MANY will and have. I hope you have a great day and that your batteries stay strong! :)
@@ayushjha2345 Answering for @LI-First Films Productions from my regular account: According to the battery store personnel, it doesn't matter if it is on or off, the battery might be damaged by leaving it on a charger for too long after it is already at 100%. But, as @Stephen Snell said, this may be fixed with newer phones. I know that my Galaxy Note 10+ had battery damage because I always kept it charging while in the car (hours on end since I deliver packages). But, I hope the newer generations of phones have fixed this. Laptops have had this problem solved for a long time now. Best practice, only have it charging when it needs it. When it's done, disconnect it. 😀
@@ayushjha2345 On or off, night or day, if it is charged 100% then it may be bad to leave it plugged into the charger. It's considered putting the battery in a "high stress" state. Can be bad if done too much. Hopefully they really have fixed this issue on newer batteries. You can always contact the maker of the phone for more information. 😎
@@tberrios9330 you must have a cheap charger, because most detect its not charging anymore and stop. in fact, you cant overcharge on a usb hub. my galaxy tab's been on there for months. what happened? nothing, when I turn it off it charges, when I turn it on its like its plugged into the wall like any pc

Hey bright side I'm having a doubt..That if a cellular data in a phone is simply turned on for several hours, It won't drain the battery percentage in the mobile??
For some reason, my phone has been "cutting off" even when I still have 30% left on the battery?!!! 😲 It can leave me stuck at inopportune times! I used to leave my charger at home, but now I'll take it with me, if I know I'm gonna be OUT & NEED to use my phone!!! 📱
This video changes all of my beliefs related to battery life and now iam so happy that i can use my phone in a more efficient and without worrying about it too much
Especially wifi, Bluetooth and GPS, it's giving misconceptions. Don't follow them. And charging overnight damages your battery. Yes battery itself stops charging once it reaches %100 but phone itself drains battery then charges again and again. Also they don't know how different chargers work, 1A 2A or more, charger amperes are different
*Good point amps are the most relevant thing to charging! (and screen brightness to battery life)* Also using higher amperage chargers then your phone came with should be fine. Electronics should almost certainly only pull the pressure (Amps) needed to do their designated work. This is not a hardfast rule but I've never heard of a problem. To know which charger has the most Amperage I _write the mA rating in Sharpie, Gold/Silver works om black plastic. _*_;]_*
My Bluetooth device like action cam and gimbal, (headset still 3.5) I'm not using those often , But how on this planet leave the Bluetooth on when don't use it ? omg
My problem is, I have no place in the house to charge my phone where I can keep checking on the charge. Very difficult to know when to pull the plug at 80% or less; and at that level I would have to charge it several times a day.
Thanks, Brightside. This video reaffirmed some things I knew and enlightened me with many things. I love what you do. I wish my fellow RUclipsrs would stop making useless comments. If you're not adding to the conversation just be still - PLEASE
It seems a lot of people are thinking the batteries are NiMH or Nickel-metal hydride batteries with memory. Lithium batteries don't have a charge memory. And they like to be charged up anytime even at 70 - 80%.
The technology hasn't changed. Anode on one side, cathode on the other. Electrons travel through a membrane separating the two. Lithium-Ion is better, but it still wears out the membrane in between the two. Barring physical damage, the battery is the part you go get replaced because it wears out not holding as much charge as it did each successive year. It's simple science. Extreme temps make it worse.
Turning off Bluetooth, GPS, and Wi-Fi to prolong the battery life. 8:42 I stopped at this cos i have personally turned off my wifi and Bluetooth when my batt is low to save it and it worked. This dude surely doesnt know what he is saying
thanks; I just got wi-fi calling -AT&T - and have noticed a faster battery drain! I will turn off and see if this makes a difference; altho' it's a older phone, and I have a difference charger, plus have had to replace the connection to charge.. mysteries of smartphones, ah!
So to summarize 1. Don't let your battery die or 0% because it will lose its chemical reactions inside thus might damage the battery. 2. 100% doesn't typically mean full, as it is only an indicator but it is good practice to constantly charge so to avoid #1. 3. Don't let your battery heat up by leaving it in hot temperatures/conditions. When it is fully charged, plug it off.
When you are using your phone while charging it it will take way more time because the processor heats when charging and if you are using it it will be even hotter and then it will slow down the processor and charging speed!
because its using energy, and yes, heat is a waste byproduct of it... heat does not slow down cpu's by the way, and the cpu is designed to stop itself in the event it overheats. anyway... charging bat is faster when your not using it because the cpu is taking some of that power.. be nice if you could feed cpu and bat enough but those usb wall chargers are only 2 amps
electrical resistance increases when temperature rises, so CPU’s will slow down when heat increases. Apparently heat (excessive) also shortens CPU’s life. If CPU’s are designed to stop when it overheats I would think this would be in extreme conditions, but I would guess they are designed to slow down gradually to reduce the risk of overheating - but that’s just my guess. Like mentioned in the video, even when the smartphone is charging, it most likely has some processes running in the background anyway, but using the smartphone while charging will - like you mentioned - slow down the charging process, but will also additionally increase the temperature of the CPU and battery excessively - especially when using internet with bad network and/or watching videos. Since high temperature is not desirable for the battery and CPU, that should probably be avoided. I found with experience that ipad charger, charges the iphone faster, turning airplane mode on also helps however marginally - it decreases the use of battery by reducing processes that consume power while charging. Not really sure how accurate this video is, it’s bery generalized at best, but I have been told by apple staff (genius bar) that leaving an iphone plugged in for charging overnigth is not good for the battery, also they said that it’s better to charge the battery full rather than charging it bit by bit. But again this probably is not a major issue with the type of batteries used in todays smartphones, but when done regularly it might have some impact.
Ridiculous. Your phone generates heat WHENEVER it's being used, regardless of whether it's being charged or not, and you're far more likely to get power slowdowns and dangerous overheating from running too many apps at once than you are from the negligible effects of a battery charge. If your CPU is overheating from a battery charge, then you're either running too many background apps or something was wrong with the CPU to begin with, because it's designed to handle the heat generation of use while a battery charges.
Aquaria, I heard that the iOS manadges apps so that even when they run in the background, they don’t consume resources too much - unless ofcourse some of them have background refresh on. So apparently in some cases it’s better to leave apps running in the background than turning them off and on, as loading the app would use more resources. I turn off all unused apps from the background despite that 😀 and only leave the few ones I use regularly and frequently. All I was trying to say, is that using the phone while charging will just add to the heating effect and that could have a negative affect on CPU etc. See the links below. If charging would’t generate significant additional amount of heat, they probably wouldn’t have advised to remove the phone from certain cases when charging battery. www.apple.com/uk/batteries/maximizing-performance/ www.apple.com/uk/batteries/why-lithium-ion/ support.apple.com/en-us/HT202105 Regards, Michael
22 years of IT EXP here... I say that 50% is BS. Charging your phone and using it is far slower but it is safe to do so. Your phone will charge 70% faster powered down and the one that bugged me was leaving your Bluetooth on while not in use, yes it does drain batteries up to 40% faster. Some they did get right are task managers and turning your screen down and the extreme hot and cold will damage your battery however in the heat your phone will stop charging to save your battery and phone from damage.
2 is wrong 5 is wrong 6 is wrong 10 is wrong 11 is wrong. "wifi uses less energy than cellular data" yes, but cellular connections use up a ton of energy.
When im home ive always left my phone in cradle and charging, in all the years ive used a mobile phone has not once affected battery, i also use an old samsung phone as a cctv monitor that is left plugged in 24/7 battery still holds same amount of juice when unplugged as the day i got it, one of the many reasons i always buy Samsung, even if there ever is an issue just buy a new battery and replace.
Number 5 Training your battery Running down the phone and charging it till full will cause it to count a cycle. After so many cycles your capacity goes down
Thanks for the video. I bought a new phone, but the battery died fast when I charge it up, it's a Blu J4, normally when I'm buy a new phone, the battery last long, but not this one. Could you tell me what's wrong?
Is that i am alone who think this guys are misguiding us because they have got sponsored by smartphone so that our phone will be damaged and we had to buy a new one
Im watching this on my Laptop... Not on my phone because i am not a millennial or addicted to my phone.. I use my phone for its sole purpose, to make and receive CALLS ... Not to browse the web or social media 24/7 ...
My phone is Moto e4 plus and its battery is very promising that it doesn't run out. It has 5000 mah battery. Its actually a problem too. When I have 50% charge on my phone, I don't charge it again thinking it will last. I suffered a couple of times because of that now I try to drain my battery charge by increasing the brightness and playing videos and music at its maximum volume and it doesn't work so much. Now I have 38% charge on my phone at 7:54 pm. Motorola is old but it's built to last. I have been using my phone for about a year and a few months . It's working perfectly fine and the battery is still a youngster. I'm still getting a 11 to 13 hour battery life even after above a year of using. Thank you Motorola. If you have used Motorola products or still using it like here.😀😀
#2 That's what I'm doing now eheheh After watching no.2 I plugged out my charger correctly not the power plug but the micro USB cable but after I watch "leaving your charger plugged into the power plug can't harm" nah... Just following steps on bright side heeehehehehe....
Well I am sure now everything brightside says are not true. As they said in this video "you can use your phone while charging" which is completely wrong. Even if you're doing some normal tasks like checking your emails, your phone will charge little slower than normal(2-5%). But if you're downloading something or playing games your charging process can slow down up to 20% or more than that depending on what you're doing. Because battery is loosing power at same time while charging. Definitely I'd not recommend to use your mobile device while charging.
How about this: it charges at the same rate, *but you are also depleting it while you use it.* So it doesn't really charge more slowly, but it does take longer to charge.
@@FuzzyElf I suggest run a test. Use your device while charging. After 10 days check your battery strength. If you find same as it was before update here. I have used several devices from different manufacturers, and I found the same result.
:( I know.. but I regret it.. the phone blown up so loud at the middle the night;-; But we can think that later Xc! It's long time ago since the phone blown up :)
@@ponzu638 i think so in the long term Your phone is trying to charge but the battery its giving is being used ; so it has a slower charge The phone will charge slower if you do this more often And in some cases, it will explode. Especially if the battery quality is bad.

But again this probably is not a major issue with the type of batteries used in todays smartphones, but when done regularly it might have some impact.
Ridiculous. Your phone generates heat WHENEVER it's being used, regardless of whether it's being charged or not, and you're far more likely to get power slowdowns and dangerous overheating from running too many apps at once than you are from the negligible effects of a battery charge.
If your CPU is overheating from a battery charge, then you're either running too many background apps or something was wrong with the CPU to begin with, because it's designed to handle the heat generation of use while a battery charges.
Aquaria,
I heard that the iOS manadges apps so that even when they run in the background, they don’t consume resources too much - unless ofcourse some of them have background refresh on. So apparently in some cases it’s better to leave apps running in the background than turning them off and on, as loading the app would use more resources. I turn off all unused apps from the background despite that 😀 and only leave the few ones I use regularly and frequently.
All I was trying to say, is that using the phone while charging will just add to the heating effect and that could have a negative affect on CPU etc.
See the links below. If charging would’t generate significant additional amount of heat, they probably wouldn’t have advised to remove the phone from certain cases when charging battery.

Screen is the most source that eats your phone's battery
Turn off and charge to maintain good battery health. It's not that hard!
M Naji Safo yeah but just turn on wi-fi and you still receive msgs and phone calls
Thank you for the thought provoking video and helpful comments. Thank you for the tips.
My phone charges a LOT faster when its off....this video is already not reliable.......
I agree
Get a higher amp charger.
22 years of IT EXP here... I say that 50% is BS. Charging your phone and using it is far slower but it is safe to do so. Your phone will charge 70% faster powered down and the one that bugged me was leaving your Bluetooth on while not in use, yes it does drain batteries up to 40% faster. Some they did get right are task managers and turning your screen down and the extreme hot and cold will damage your battery however in the heat your phone will stop charging to save your battery and phone from damage.

Bluetooth being used may drain 40% faster but if its just on it uses very little.

11 is wrong. "wifi uses less energy than cellular data" yes, but cellular connections use up a ton of energy.
90% is wrong dont believe this bs
This video should be named 12 myths about charging phones
Thanks for your help and advice on this matter. Thanks again.
When im home ive always left my phone in cradle and charging, in all the years ive used a mobile phone has not once affected battery, i also use an old samsung phone as a cctv monitor that is left plugged in 24/7 battery still holds same amount of juice when unplugged as the day i got it, one of the many reasons i always buy Samsung, even if there ever is an issue just buy a new battery and replace.

Training your battery
Running down the phone and charging it till full will cause it to count a cycle. After so many cycles your capacity goes down

@@mynameisazz wait wha-
How?? .-.
Great recommendations, thanks!
Manufacturers recommend fully charging before first use.
I just went into a phone shop and they *don't*
This video is sponsored by phone manufacturers so our phone can break faster and so we can buy a new phone right away.
He said in a video 3 years back charge your new phone to 100% now you dont have to charge it to 100%
Me: am i joke to you
I understand you but its OK to learn the mistakes of the other things and teach the otherwise to people. I hope you do understand.
I Love your Channel so much 🥰🥰🥰
Watching This video While Charging it on same time ;)
What about NFC.
Am I imagine that it drains the battery?
nfc = pushing out high frequenzy vawes with a lot of energy, justl like wifi,
so yes nfc => heavy drain
i think you're confused between the word "MISTAKE" and "MISCONCEPTION"
Thanks for the video. I bought a new phone, but the battery died fast when I charge it up, it's a Blu J4, normally when I'm buy a new phone, the battery last long, but not this one. Could you tell me what's wrong?
Relatable to Apple
While Android sits there watching
😂
Android be like, what a pointless video. Didn't even use 1% to watch the entire thing.
I have a droid turbo, and it charges perfectly with an oem samsung charger.
Great vid!
Wait,
Why on earth is the phone charging from the headphone jack?
😂😂The cell phone battery killed itself😂😂
Lesson learned: Don't watch Brightside videos😂
From my experiance,charging overnight slowly demage my 🔋...
Who is charging their phones while watching this?
Mia The Faster Panther ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ me
Same
*Secretly unplug charger*
Me 😳😳

This video is really helpful thanks
Good one
Do what ever you do dont call while charging thats not safe at all
Ok,hold up,who tf charges there phone on the top😂(thumbnail)
Thanks for the tips that work
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
Yes exactly
Is that i am alone who think this guys are misguiding us because they have got sponsored by smartphone so that our phone will be damaged and we had to buy a new one
who else watching this video while charging?shout to you!!😊
Brodie Westbrook you meant shout out? Lol
I am on my laptop... I do not have a smartphone...
Im watching this on my Laptop... Not on my phone because i am not a millennial or addicted to my phone..
I use my phone for its sole purpose, to make and receive CALLS ... Not to browse the web or social media 24/7 ...
Brodie Westbrook yayyyy
Just pulled mine off at 80% 😂
My phone is Moto e4 plus and its battery is very promising that it doesn't run out. It has 5000 mah battery. Its actually a problem too. When I have 50% charge on my phone, I don't charge it again thinking it will last. I suffered a couple of times because of that now I try to drain my battery charge by increasing the brightness and playing videos and music at its maximum volume and it doesn't work so much. Now I have 38% charge on my phone at 7:54 pm. Motorola is old but it's built to last. I have been using my phone for about a year and a few months . It's working perfectly fine and the battery is still a youngster. I'm still getting a 11 to 13 hour battery life even after above a year of using. Thank you Motorola. If you have used Motorola products or still using it like here.😀😀
But screen off makes battery usage go to extremd low
Im no rocket scientist but my phone even tells me through my notifications to not use it while its charging so that the battery will charge faster
well wrong, my tablet even charges faster when it is turned on, when it is turned off it takes longer it seems!
of course it will you cant use and charge at the same speed because the phone is taking power to run.
bt of course either way isn't hurting it
@@harleyme3163 common sense
He never said it charges at the same rate if you use it when charging, he just said that it is okay to use your phone when charging.
Thats common sense of course it charges slower, because when it's turned on it uses some power.
me: look at me apple
apple: what NoOOoOOo
me ^_^ i plug the apple charger on a Samsung phone
Samsung: I feel fin...
BOOOoOoOoOOOOOOOOoOOOoOoOMMMM
That's some kind of smartphone buttsecks. Go to jail.

Yeah, giving people tech advice and debunking "myths" with half-assed knowledge is what makes the internet go round...
Thanks for a very insightful and informative video.

That's what I'm doing now eheheh
After watching no.2 I plugged out my charger correctly not the power plug but the micro USB cable but after I watch "leaving your charger plugged into the power plug can't harm" nah... Just following steps on bright side heeehehehehe....
My phone is charging right now
Furious Gamer I hope you take away its credit card LOL
In Their First video They Said Avoid Cheap Mobile Chargers And in 2nd Video they Only says Use Cheap Chargers.
Thank you so much for this video❤
Well I am sure now everything brightside says are not true.
As they said in this video "you can use your phone while charging" which is completely wrong.
Even if you're doing some normal tasks like checking your emails, your phone will charge little slower than normal(2-5%). But if you're downloading something or playing games your charging process can slow down up to 20% or more than that depending on what you're doing. Because battery is loosing power at same time while charging.
Definitely I'd not recommend to use your mobile device while charging.
Them saying you can use your battery while its charging was in reference to it damaging you're battery of course its going to charge slower
How about this: it charges at the same rate, *but you are also depleting it while you use it.* So it doesn't really charge more slowly, but it does take longer to charge.
@@FuzzyElf I suggest run a test. Use your device while charging. After 10 days check your battery strength. If you find same as it was before update here.
I have used several devices from different manufacturers, and I found the same result.
@@DAY-ht4go And where does one obtain a "battery strength detector?"
You don't need a detector for that. You can do it by yourself.
Idk how trustworthy this video is, it seems like they just want you to break your phone so you’ll go an buy a new one
@@passing_bye5991 - yawn...
The bright side makes three minute videos 10 minutes long

In your another video you said using your phone while charging will damage it but here its visa versa?
I know it's hard!! But last time, I charge my phone and at the end my phone got blown up :( *because I charge it overnight*
:( I know.. but I regret it.. the phone blown up so loud at the middle the night;-;
But we can think that later Xc! It's long time ago since the phone blown up :)
*ft Jonghyun* Excuse MEEE! This is so sad! Can we hit 40 Kpop weebs?
serves u right
*ft Jonghyun* Excuse MEEE! What phone was it
Your comment infires me.
Title must be "12 Things You Should Do While Charging Your Phone Battery"
But it's wrong and it does damage your phone anyway.
I can debunk it, if you'd like.
@@tatiana2133 does using phone while charging harms the battery?
@@ponzu638 i think so in the long term
Your phone is trying to charge but the battery its giving is being used ; so it has a slower charge
The phone will charge slower if you do this more often
And in some cases, it will explode. Especially if the battery quality is bad.
Once i keeped my device in charging and after a while i realized there is a switch also lol....🤣😂😂😂
I did that to but it was over night
