charge your phone

[Tsutarja]

I guess when it's around 50/60% is when I like to start charging it. I never leave it charging overnight because I don't want to kill the battery if it's already got to 100%.

Hmm charging at 50-60% is rather high. Does your battery just drop off quickly after that?

my phone is always dead tbh

I charge my phone when the battery is at 45-50%, just enough to get close to 60-75%. Phones use lithium batteries nowadays and they last longer if they are between the 40-80% range. What you want to avoid is a long charge like 0%>100% (heat) and USB fast charge (more heat). The best is to do several small charges per day when it's possible

I know that because my last phone died after only 13 months of use and the battery in it wasn't removable

My old phone's did so maybe habit. But at the same time I just don't like my battery dropping below the 50% mark anyway.

I charge mine when it hits 40%.

I have been using this mobile phone for 3 years, and I plan to buy a new one next year.

I also feel a bit uncomfortable when my battery gets below 60%, so I would charge it when it gets to there. If I'm going out for a while, then I might charge it sooner than that.

Nightly. My iPhone 8 Plus used to have such fantastic battery life that I could use it for two days without charging though, despite Discord, Safari, Reddit and whatnot. However, since the last update... it's much worse ):
