BERLIN: Google has a new charging feature aimed at extending battery life on smartphones by automatically stopping the power supply when the battery has recharged to 80% full.
Until now, smartphones have traditionally charged all the way to 100%, but specialists in the lithium-ion tech that powers smartphones widely agree that charging to around 80% instead gives batteries a longer lifespan.
