Why you should not use ear piece while charging your phone

In this era of fast charging features added to many phones, at the least, it is ‘inadvisable’ to do both things at once. Simple reasoning says that while charging the battery temperature rises… and while using the phone the CPU consumes energy from the battery itself which also adds to the heating.

Charging your phone while using it will definitely put a load on the battery a bit more than when you only charge it without using it. If you just listen to music for a short period, you should be fine, but once your phone begins to heat up you should immediately stop.

In this day of efficient batteries and fast charging, I would really suggest that you should first charge you phone fully and THEN use it for whatever you want. Why risk it?
