1 year agoNot a good idea if you really value battery health. Leaving it plugged in prevents it from using the battery and thus saves cycles. If you’re able to use a plug then you should take advantage of it and save those cycles for when you don’t have access to a plug or it’s otherwise inconvenient.
Oh, no I think you’ve got the wrong idea. I’m not saying I would ever forgo its portability for some anxiety of battery health. I’m just saying that in my position, I typically have access to a plug right next to me. In this case I will reach over and plug it in and it doesn’t make much sense to intentionally unplug it if you care about getting the most out of your purchase. I mean, hell, that’s actually extra effort to unplug it when it’s already plugged in.
