This is an iPhone 12 mini. That's a
0:04
phone that's several years old and it
0:06
still has a battery health of 85%.
0:11
It's pretty easy to maintain or preserve
0:14
the battery health of your iPhone. And
0:16
in this video, I share with you the two
0:19
main things you need to do to make that
0:31
First and foremost, your charging and
0:34
usage habit is what you need to watch.
0:38
The first rule is this. Do not charge
0:41
your iPhone fully to 100% when you
0:44
charge it. And do not discharge the
0:47
battery to zero when you use it. For
0:51
example, I do not charge my phone beyond
0:57
Sometimes 90 and then I take it off the
0:59
charger and I generally do not allow my
1:03
phones to discharge lower than 20%.
1:06
The sweet spot is this. Top up your
1:09
phone as often as you can,
1:16
If you do that, you're going to preserve
1:18
the battery health for many, many years.
1:22
Charging your phone's battery fully or
1:25
discharging it fully is a big problem
1:29
that will wear out your battery quickly.
1:35
right there and select battery health
1:41
and then come down here and enable
1:44
optimized charging. That helps. The
1:48
number two tip, keep your iPhone away
1:51
from extreme temperatures. Keep it away
1:53
from heat, keep it away from cold. Do
1:57
not leave your iPhone near an oven, a
2:03
in a car on a hot day, outside in direct
2:08
sunlight where heat is concentrated.
2:11
Just keep your phone away from extreme
2:14
temperatures. Also, keep it away from
2:16
freezing temperature.
2:18
Extremes are the enemies of most
2:21
electronics. The same way extreme
2:23
charging is a problem, extreme
2:25
temperatures, whether high or low, is a
2:28
big problem for your battery. If you
2:31
keep exposing your phone that way, your
2:34
battery will degrade rather fast. If
2:36
you're using your iPhone and it begins
2:39
to feel warm, put it down. Put it down.
2:42
Put it down. Let it cool off
2:45
That's one thing a lot of people are
2:47
guilty of. You're watching a video,
2:50
you're scrolling through social media,
2:51
you're doing so, you're recording a
2:53
video, you're taking pictures, and your
2:55
phone begins to warm up. Seriously, you
2:58
[clears throat] need to put it down. Put
3:00
it down. Let it cool off. Imagine you're
3:02
driving a car and you on your dashboard,
3:06
you notice the temperature dial going
3:10
up. Your car is likely to begin to
3:12
overheat. Do you keep going? No. you
3:16
pull over, park the car, and let it cool
3:18
down. But when it comes to phones, you
3:21
know, we just want to stay online and do
3:24
what we're doing. Put the phone down
3:26
once it begins to get warm. Electronics
3:30
do not like extreme temperatures.
3:33
Too cold, too hot. No big problem.
3:37
Batteries, especially in electronics, do
3:40
not like extreme temperatures.
3:42
Thanks for watching this video. I look
3:44
forward to seeing you in the next one.
