Here’s a hot tip. If you’re on android, open the developer settings and turn on “demo mode” before taking screenshots. It makes the battery and signal display as 100% so you don’t get judged by internet commenters who don’t go outside.
For lithium batteries (phone batteries) it’s actually more important than draining to 0. Many studies indicate that the average phone battery should last several thousand cycles while only losing 5-10% of total capacity provided it is never charged above 80%. Minimum % (even down to 0%) and charge rate below 70% is also unrestricted.
The tl;dr is that everytime you charge to 100% is the same as 50-100 charges to 80%. Draining a lithium chemistry battery to 0 isn’t an issue as long as you don’t leave it in a discharged state (immediately charging).

Or you click that little edit button and crop the top of the image completely off.
I also go outside. I just stop using my Phone at 30% to preserve Battery. That’s why I judge these People. Turn it off and preserve the Battery.
16% is pretty good. the ones at three to one percent are the weirdos.
To prolong your battery’s lifespan you shouldn’t let it drain below 20%.
Don’t phone battery indicators lie to you now so that 0% displayed is actually about 20% specifically because of this?
Also charging it fully but I don’t know how important that one is.

Just as important. And most phones these days have a setting to prevent it from charging to 100%. E.g. I set mine to stop at 90%.
I really hate and avoid when my phone switches into battery saver at 15%, so in my mind 16% is like 1%
