Charging your smartphone to 100% generates excessive heat. This takes a toll on the battery in the long run. To keep the battery health in check, it is recommended that you keep your phone’s charge level between 40-80% at all times. Most Android OEMs let you set a custom charging limit on your device. When a charging limit is set, the power supply to the battery gets cut off when it reaches a certain charge. Here is how you can check the battery health and set a custom charging limit on your Nothing Phone.
