Experts give advice on how to charge your smartphone faster during power outages

In conditions of power outages, it is important to know how to charge your smartphone as quickly as possible.

With power outages, it is important to charge your smartphone quickly, especially if the battery level is already quite low.

There are a few simple recommendations that will help speed up the process without harming the battery.

First, connect the device directly to the outlet using the original charger. This is important because charging via a USB port on a laptop or other devices is much slower.

If you can't charge from a wall outlet by connecting your smartphone to USB, be sure to select the “Charge Only” mode in the menu. This will speed up the process by disabling data transfer.

The original cable plays a key role, as it is optimized for your device. Using uncertified accessories can slow down charging and damage the battery. It is better to refuse wireless charging if the charging time is limited, as it works slower.

Additionally, enable power saving mode. This feature turns off background processes and reduces power consumption.

On Xiaomi, Honor and other brand devices, there is an “ultra power saving” feature, which is available through “Settings” → “Power and performance”. It minimizes the operation of all functions except basic ones and helps restore the charge faster.
