Pro mode also displays little boxes are green in the middle area of the frame. They symbolize points of phase detection autofocus being active and capable of locking focus very quickly when following moving subjects, including when recording video.

The condition, the subject should be included in phase detect areas that are more or less in 50 percent of the middle area of this frame.

Stop 4 Habits "charge" Smartphone like this



The smartphone has a myriad of "intelligence" compared with the basic phone (feature phone) which is only used for calls and SMS.

Thanks to the ingenuity, smartphones more greedily consuming battery power. Smartphones, at best, only lasted one day and should be in-charge back. In contrast to the basic mobile phone that is quite in-charge once a week.

Because of the intensity of usage and often in-charge make smartphone batteries work harder. For that, the user must be right in treating the batteries to make it more durable.

Well, here are four common bad habits of users and must be stopped so that the phone battery is not quickly broken, as summarized KompasTekno from various sources.

1. Stop the habit of wearing POWERBANK

Portable battery devices (POWERBANK) is often a lifesaver when smartphone battery "dying". However, many users who often charge through POWERBANK despite not being an emergency and is actually possible to use a device charger.

Stop the habit of jamming charge smartphones like that. Frequent use can make the POWERBANK smartphone battery life is reduced.

Unlike the charger via electricity, POWERBANK not fully power the stable and within specifications smartphone. Coupled with more circulation POWERBANK with low quality.

Another bad habit that needs to be stopped is to charge your smartphone using a laptop or PC via a data cable. As POWERBANK, the electric current of the computer is not designed to charge your smartphone standard.

So from now on, only use POWERBANK and the computer if it is really in a pinch.

2. Stop use any charger

Charger device Android smartphones and tablets have a uniform shape, so often used interchangeably for all devices.

In fact, each device has a charger with special specifications that are tailored to the type of device and the battery capacity. Charger tablet devices usually have a size larger ampere.

Charger is not within specifications gradually reduce smartphone battery performance. So, from now do not use a tablet charger to charge the phone battery. Use the original charger or the appropriate standard specifications of your phone.

3. Stop charge overnight

The extreme conditions hazardous to the health of the smartphone battery. Continue to charge the smartphone is already full for a long time is not good. Is common practice to charge your phone overnight.

Current smartphones are already equipped with overcharge protection features that keep the battery stops charging when full. However, some research now suggests could be adversely affected if the battery is not charged until the full 100 percent, enough to 80-90 percent.

So, it could not hurt to give up the habit overnight to charge battery life could be longer.

4. Stop empty gradually


Leaving the battery is completely empty is not good anymore. If often like this, then the battery life will slowly decrease.

The reason is, if the battery is completely empty, the battery cells will "sleep". If not quickly "awakened", at worst these cells would lose the ability to absorb power from the charging apparatus.

Charging the best, based on based on research, when the battery is below 40 percent, in the range of 15 to 35 percent.

Stop hoping the battery can live forever

A human life is temporary, let alone a smartphone battery. In fact, every year battery life will decrease. Although users have been caring for the battery properly, each battery has aged.

Therefore, do not be sad. Be willing to buy a new battery for the health of the smartphone. Tips that have been described are only able to lengthen the life of the battery, not make him immortal.

Indeed, many current smartphones that do not give users the option to change the battery easily. For that, please consult an electrician or the nearest service center.
