My wife’s phone dies every. single. day. and I don’t know why she doesn’t just charge it at night.

I’m just wondering how people live like this 😅

It doesn’t matter when you got a fast-charge phone.

Fast charging decreases the lifetime of your battery compared to traditional charging. It’s not a huge difference anymore (maybe 3% or something), but traditional charging isn’t that inconvenient considering you’re not using your phone while you sleep, anyway.

This mindset is so frustrating. My fiancee and I will have a discussion like do you want to go do _______. We decide to go, and now ensues the I need to let my phone charge some before we go. Waiting ~30 minutes before leaving to go somewhere is very disadvantages.

I do generally charge my phone at night, but I do it while awake and unplug it before I go to sleep. It’s increasingly rare these days, but I just don’t want to risk the potential fire hazard of leaving a phone plugged in.

Sometimes my bed is too full of dependents and I don’t have a charger near the couch :(
