All smartphones have lithium-ion batteries, so it would not be wrong to say that this technology has become very common.

But users do not know much about this or there are misconceptions about it.

The battery life of a smartphone is affected by several factors such as temperature, age or charging habits.

But when it comes to charging, one misconception is very common and that is that using the phone while charging is harmful.

The habit of using the phone while charging is often described as carelessness.

It is also believed that this damages the battery, but the reality is that this is very rare.

Using the phone during this time can definitely slow down charging because the device is divided between charging and discharging.

But if the phone is not very hot, there is no effect on the battery life.

According to experts, the phone can be used while charging, but efforts should be made to ensure that the task is not too heavy so that the device does not have to use too much processing power.

For example, checking email or messages, listening to music, writing notes, scrolling social media or browsing the internet, etc. do not affect the phone’s battery.

However, playing mobile games, streaming 4K video or recording videos should be avoided because a lot of heat is released during these tasks.

Heat accelerates the degradation process of the battery and reduces its capacity or damages the internal structure.
