If you’ve noticed it slowing down significantly, there’s probably an issue that’s easy to resolve.[/div][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"][br][strong][font size="4"][font color="#4169e1"]Understanding Rechargeable Batteries[br][/strong][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Every mobile phone has a battery. For the most part, each battery delivers power the same way. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]A cell battery contains two electrodes (one positive and one negative) and an electrolyte. Through usage, ions form in the electrodes, which drives a flow of electronics to your battery’s negative outer terminal, thereby giving off a charge. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]In non-rechargeable batteries, these chemical reactions only occur one time. With rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, like the ones found in phones, the chemical reactions are “reversible.” Thus, recharging allows the cell to absorb power.[br][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"][br]Now that you know how battery charging works, it’s time to look at what might be slowing down your older phone while charging. Most likely, it’s because of one of the following reason[font color="#432d2d"]s:[br][font color="#432d2d"][br][font size="4"][font color="#4169e1"][strong]1. Bad Accessories[br][/strong][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]The most straightforward reason your cell phone might be charging slower than before might have nothing to do with the phone itself. Instead, you could have a bad cord or adapter, or weak power source. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]USB cables get put through a lot, especially in homes with multiple users and devices. These cables are often dropped, bent, kept in locations where temperatures can vary significantly, and even stepped on. Therefore, before anything else, change the cable and see if that eliminates the problem[/div][div align="left"][font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][br][/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="4"][font color="#4169e1"][strong]2. Port Issues[br][/strong][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Your cable isn’t the only element that could have problems from daily charging. Your phone’s charging port could also suffer some damage. Look at the port for corrosion or an obstruction. While this probably isn’t the reason it’s taking more time to charge your device, you should at least rule it out. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]To find the latter, use a flashlight and magnification to look around inside your phone’s port. Try to remove any object (lint, dust, etc.) that doesn’t belong, being very careful not to cause damage to the port’s components. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][br][/div][div align="left"][br][/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="4"][font color="#4169e1"][strong]3. Background Apps[br][/strong][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Phones that take forever to charge can also have a hard time keeping a charge when in use. A rogue app, or background apps in general, could be the reason for this. [font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Both Android and iOS now have tools for you to find out what apps are running in the background. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]When you think you’ve located the nasty app, delete it and see if your battery life and charging speed improves. [br][/div][div align="left"][br][/div][div align="left"][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="4"][font color="#4169e1"][strong]4. The Problem Is You[br][/strong][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]Are you the type of person that has to use your smartphone even when it’s charging? Perhaps you’re the reason the device takes so long to recharge. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]Nowhere is this more apparent than when you’re attempting to recharge your device while also leaving posts on your social network. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]Instead of doing this, take a break. Make a rule that you won’t use your phone while it’s charging.[/div][br][/div][div align="left"][font face="Arial"][font size="4"][font color="#4169e1"][strong]5. Aging Battery[br][/strong][font face="Arial"][font size="3"][font color="#000000"]If you’ve exhausted the other tips on this list and the battery still seems to take forever to charge, you might think about having the battery replaced. [font color="#000"][font face="Arial"][font size="3"]The little industry secret is that lithium-ion batteries don’t last forever and can only be recharged a limited number of times. Therefore, it could be that the battery itself is what’s causing the slow recharging. Take your phone to an authorized dealer for more information on replacing the battery in your device.
