The one we ask ourselves today is one of those million-dollar questions. When doing an internet search you will find several answers that are themselves contradictory. So what should you think about? Is it or not true that leaving the phone charging all night harms the terminal? Today we are going to try to clarify your doubts by undoing one of the most widespread myths in the world of mobile telephony. And we are going to do it by explaining the why of the issue to avoid you headaches to try to understand it completely.
If you are one of those who take advantage of the night to leave your mobile charging and fear that your battery will suffer some inconvenience, I recommend that you get this myth out of your head. In general, charging the terminal battery for a long time, even when the battery is already full, will not cause any internal damage. How can we find out? Nowadays, smartphone terminals are capable of detecting through sensors what is happening in each of their sections and in the parts of the device. Therefore, the battery charge cells know in advance that they do not require more power and therefore block the entrance of electricity keeping your device safe.
Taking into account that the charging process throughout the night will not directly influence the autonomy of your device, nor will it cause any damage to it, you should consider the fact that, if you have a case that does not allow proper ventilation, you could have problems. Although the energy does not go directly to the terminal, having an accessory of this type could cause interference and generate overheating in your mobile. In that sense, you do have to pay close attention to continuous charges for long periods.
What about non-original chargers?
Now, could your phone be damaged if you leave it overnight charging with a non-original cable? This is another question that arises when it comes to damage that can be caused to batteries. The answer is again a no, although with nuances. For the phone to break down during the charging process, either at night or for shorter periods of time during the day, it has to happen that the components that you use to recharge the battery are not in good condition. The advantage of originals is that you have the certainty that they have passed specific quality controls. That does not mean that non-original accessories have not, but you should verify it by buying in specialized stores and products that have the guarantee of the European Community seal. Remember that this is easy to confuse with China Export CE,
On the other hand, all those who wait for the phone to discharge practically completely to charge it , because you think that this way the battery is better conserved, I comment that you are also wrong. In reality, the batteries of mobile terminals, like those of other electronic devices, have limited charge cycles and are intended for the common use of the product. Following this myth could alter them and, therefore, cause problems related to failures in autonomy, in the charges or even overheating.
