Smartphone: If you use your phone while charging, keep these things in mind, otherwise the battery will become weak..

You must have often heard that the phone should not be used while charging. It is also true that whenever you put the phone on charge, avoid using it. Do not use the phone while charging; let it lie there as long as it is charging. When you remove it from charging, start using it only after that. However, if you still use it, then there is a need to keep some special things in mind. Actually, using the phone during charging time not only slows down its charging, but also affects the battery. Let's know why the phone should not be used while charging, even if you use it, what things should be kept in mind?

Using the phone while charging affects the battery

Using the phone while charging can heat up the device. Charging and use of the processor puts more power on it, and it gets hot. Heat can be harmful to the battery because staying at high temperatures for a long time reduces the life of the lithium-ion battery. Especially gaming should be avoided during charging. Messaging, calling, or light browsing does not have any major impact on the battery during charging. But heavy apps like gaming or video editing weaken the battery. However, nowadays some companies have started providing such batteries in the phone, which do not let it heat up. Still, you should be careful.

Using the phone while charging slows down the speed
Using the phone while charging can slow down the charging speed. This is because the processor and screen of the phone are drawing current, due to which the battery takes more time to charge. In simple words, the power received from electricity goes less into charging and more goes to the processor and screen, so the charging speed slows down.

If you use it, keep these things in mind.

Do not use gaming or heavy apps during charging, so that the battery does not weaken.

Charge the phone with the same charger that is credible or given by the company.

Do not charge the phone by keeping it in a hot place or on the bed pillow. Keep it in a ventilated place, so that it does not heat up.

Try to keep your phone battery between 20% to 80%, it increases battery life.
