Use a branded charger only: While charging the phone, remember that you are charging the phone only with the charger given by the company. If you buy a new charger, it should be from a reputable third-party charger company. Never buy a charger of poor quality in the name of cheap.

Keep the phone away from broken connectors: Do not charge the phone with a charger that has broken or damaged pins or connectors. Because a bad charger can cause electric leakage and fire.

Do not cover the phone while charging: As you may know that the smartphone gets a little hot while charging. If you cover it with something at that time then it may cause a heat release problem. Which can cause a fire. The phone often falls under the pillow while sleeping.

Do not leave the phone charging overnight: Today's smartphones come with lithium batteries. Which turns off after charging. But, overcharging affects the health of the battery. Also leaving a hot charger plugged into a power outlet overnight can pose a risk.

Avoid frequent charging: Do not start charging until the battery is below 20 percent. When the phone is charged repeatedly, it reduces the battery life. But don't wait for the battery to go down.
