JAKARTA - Charging or charging cell phones at night and being left to sleep overnight is always a debate. This habit is actually prohibited by many, but many still do it.

Today's smartphones need fast time to charge, from 30 minutes to two hours. This speed depends on the battery capacity of the device.

Quoting from Gizmodo, Samsung said that charging overnight was not allowed. The reason is, the phone should not be fully filled up to 100 percent.

If the phone is overly charged to full, the battery usage period will decrease over time. This does not only apply to Samsung, but all types of smartphones.

Compared to charging from empty to full batteries, smartphone users are advised to charge when the phone is at 20 percent and stop charging above 80 percent.

The lithium-ion battery itself can generally be charged excessively like being left overnight. The reason is, most smartphones have automatic charging cessation when the phone has reached 100 percent.

However, this is still not good to do. It's a good idea to keep the battery cass in accordance with the rules so that the battery lasts longer. Some ways that can at least be done to keep the battery life going are:

By keeping the phone charging up and not charging excessively, there is a phone that may last well for several years without any problems.
