I've always heard that you get better long-term battery life when you only let your phone get down to around 40%, rather than say waiting till it's down to 10-20% or charging it when you are still at 80%. I've also heard the same about not always charging your phone to 100% This seems to be optimal in terms of degrading your battery more slowly over time, for complicated technical reasons of how the batteries work.
So all that being said, say I'm just at home browsing the web, watching some youtube, etc. Is it harder on the battery to just keep it plugged in while I use it? IE, would it be better to just run off battery and try to remember to charge it around 40%?
