Help with charging 14 pro max. (alien.top)

I have a 2 month old 14 pro max and I have seen that a lot of YouTubers have complained of battery health degradation after 1 year with overnight charging.

Everyday, by the end of the day, my phone comes down to 70 or 60 percent. After I come back home from work, I put it for charging and by 10 pm, it is 100% charged. I then take it of the charger.

Is this a good way of charging? Please advise.

Charge the phone as needed, replace the battery as needed.

No 2 batteries are the same and each user is going to experience different things.

Doesn't really matter too much. My 14PM gets a avg of 8-10hrs of screen time. Charge it every night using magsafe, and in the car whenever I'm driving using magsafe. Had since release. Currently at 91% battery health

Get a 5 watt charger for everyday use, charging speed degrades them pretty quickly as well as keeping them at full for extended periods of time
