It’s understandable that many of us need the comfort of doomscrolling or the lull of a podcast to drift off, but the content creator explained how damaging keeping your phone under a pillow can be.
“Please do not sleep with your phone next to or under your pillow. [The pillow] can cause it to overheat,” he explained.
“What happens when your phone overheats every single night? Your battery gets worse.”
Not only that, it’s also a fire hazard.
Don’t charge your phone to 100 percent
And finally, when it comes to charging your phone you may think that beginning your day with the device on 100 percent is the best way to go, right?
Not according to Morgan, who stated that anyone who cares about their battery health ‘at all’ should not be charging to 100 percent.
“Keep it between 20 percent and 80 percent if you can,” he added.
This piece of advice proved to be the most divisive amongst viewers, with many taking to the comments section to question the logic behind Morgan’s reasoning.
“I don’t understand why I shouldn’t charge my phone to 100 percent pls elaborate,” one user commented.
However another commenter was able to clarify the confusion, explaining that charging your phone to 100 and then leaving it plugged in can cause long-term strain on the battery.
“[It] reduces the life of the battery slightly,” they wrote.
“Batteries are most stable around 55-60% so it’s best to keep it in a decent range [of that].”
