One of the most critical components in a mobile phone and that frequently becomes the main reason for renewing it is its battery. All users have the experience of seeing how the performance HE degrades over timeincreasingly gives fewer hours of autonomy and The measurement of its load capacity becomes misleadingThis loss of performance – batteries are designed to withstand a certain number of charges – can be delayed with a series of good practices, but It is inevitable that it will come.
So much Manzana as Google They recommend that users always use the power adapter included with the device and not a generic or other model, avoid overheating, which happens easily in summer, and charge the device only when necessary.
In this sense, the usual recommendation is Do not let the battery drop below 20% or above 80% to ensure greater durability. However, Yes, there is a case in which it is recommended to charge it and empty it completely. and this is when you want to recalibrate it so that the measurements made by the operating system are correct again.
It is normal for usage and loss of performance to also affect this aspect of the battery. It may seem like you have enough battery to last a few hours and then it turns out that this is not the case, that it has decreased more quickly than expected. Not because it is consuming more energy but because the charging percentage is not correct.. Then it is necessary to calibrate it again so that it offers more accurate measurements and the information provided by the mobile is more reliable.
The process to do it is the same in Android and iOS mobileswith a small difference that we mention below. You must follow these steps.
- Charge your mobile up to 100%. After reaching the limit, leave it connected to the charger one or two more hours.
- Unplug it and use it until leave the battery at 0%. Wait at least four hours before starting to charge again. Apple recommends that this time be reached until six or eight hoursin this way the excess residual energy is released.
- Load it again up to 100%.
