Everyone wants their smartphone to last as long as possible, and that's why cases were born.
Cases are very useful to protect smartphones that last for a long time. But Xiaomi, a popular smartphone manufacturer in the world, has shown the reason why users should remove the case from the phone.
In an article published about battery improvement processes from Xiaomi and noted by PhoneArena, removing the case will help improve battery performance on smartphones. From the point of view of the Chinese brand, the problem of charging with a case is related to the fact that they retain heat, so although cases help protect the device, they can harm the charging process due to problems with heat.
It's important to note that not all smartphone cases are well insulated, and this means overheating can occur. As a result, it can lead to slower charging speeds, causing battery degradation. To prevent this from happening, it is advised to remove the cover to dissipate heat. After charging, users should use the case again to protect the smartphone from scratches and drops.
Although this procedure is said to improve battery life, it is expected that many users will not follow it because after all, removing the case can be difficult in everyday life, even annoying for some users.
Also, in the article posted by Xiaomi, several points are emphasized to make charging more practical, including charging in a cool environment or avoiding using smartphones while charging. However, there is one thing that stands out about a procedure that users are likely to do, which involves using a USB port to charge the smartphone instead of a regular outlet.
That's what often happens to users working with computers, where they can use the USB port on the computer to connect to the phone charger, but Xiaomi suggests a very simple sentence: don't do that. Charging speeds from a computer are not comparable to traditional charging methods and may harm future battery performance.
