My phone came with some smart features, and one of them is its ability to automatically turn itself off and on whenever you want it. So it's possible to have it turn off around 10PM and turn on around 8AM, whichever days you like, or even all week.

Since while it's off, nothing drains the battery, it means I save 10 hours worth of idling drain, which is around 4-5%. So my phone has to be charged like once a week, and it's easier to keep it in the 30-80% sweet spot, which is really nice.

My question is, is it worth keeping this routine? Does it cause less wear having it turned off for the night or is it just placebo?

No, just enable airplane mode

this is for people who have no life or some shit like that?

my phone is on 24/7 and i run fuck huge batteries, 7800 mah or 9800 mah are my main batteries with a 6000 and a ton of 3000's if i need to go sleek. i keep 2 fast chargers, 1 20,000 mah power brick in the car, and another 20,000 mah power brick for backup.

i also leave my phone plugged in when i'm asleep.

i can't remember the last time i had a dead battery.

lol, you must be a poor maggot.
I turned my phone off for the last week, so nobody can reach me.
>>
>>61906267
Nobody would try to reach you anyway you shut in NEET

>>61906192
I can't do that automatically, unfortunately.

>this is for people who have no life or some shit like that?

Why would I answer the phone in the dead of night? I'm sleeping, if anyone wants to call me, they can do so in a civilized time after 8 in the morning, when I'm already awake and showered.
Tbqh my do not disturb mode kicks in even sooner, at 20:00.
I think this is perfectly reasonable.

no unless you have installed old version of skype, which sucked battery life like $5 whore
>>
I don't know about battery life extension, but I've gotten better than 3 years of good performance out of all the smart phones I've had, & I've always turned ALL of my phones off when I crash. It seems like most people get less than two.

What? I can go 20-30 hours on idle without losing 1%

The fuck kind of garbage are you using, an iPhone?

Depends if you like have a brain tumor or not
>Yes
Leave it on
>No
Turn it off

Sure, your phone just magically doesn't consume power. Post proof.

Shame I didn't take a screenshot of my battery usage last week. I was on vacation and I got about 6 hours of SoT, dropped the battery to about ~50%, and before I charged my phone 5 days later, I had ~43% left.

Screenshot is the best I can give you. The flat line is an ~8 hour window.

>>61906177
Never had a reason to and it has always worked fine while plugged in.

>20-30 hours without losing any battery
this image does not support your claim in the slightest
