I've been using "al dente" on my new laptop to keep the battery charge maxed out at 80% and hopefully extend the life of my battery.

For anyone who's interested, it's written as AlDente, one word:

If you have root, that's easy to do on Android as well. Honestly, it's one of the like three things that I root for these days
My Samsung has this option, it's called Protect Battery, but I still need to turn it off to get through flights and other fun events.
Thank you. I've never heard of this option, I just enabled it.
Thanks, didn't realize I could do that
