How Do I Know if My Android Battery Is Bad?

If you feel like the battery on your Android phone doesn’t last as long as it used to, that could be a sign that something is wrong. Here’s a quick look at how to figure out if something is wrong.

• Your battery keeps running out: It seems like a no-brainer, but if your battery used to last all day without a problem and now you have to charge it more than once a day, it’s almost certain that your phone battery isn’t as strong as it used to be.
• Charging doesn’t seem to fully recharge: Have you ever noticed that your phone isn’t fully charged even after you’ve charged it for hours? It could mean that your battery can’t hold a full charge anymore.
• The battery runs hot: If your phone runs much hotter than it used to, it could be because the battery is overheating and getting damaged.
• The battery is bulging: Don’t use your phone if the battery is bulging out of its case. This is dangerous, and it’s a sure sign that your battery is dead.
