Use a USB Port to Charge Your Phone
For this process, you need a charging cable that is compatible with your phone. You can plug your phone into your laptop for a quick charge or find alternate USB ports that can do the job.
Charge Your Phone With a Battery Pack
You’ll need to do a little advance planning to use this method.
Hand-Crank Chargers for Emergency Phone Charges
A hand-crank charger doesn’t require any electrical power, making it a great choice for outdoor adventures or emergencies. To use a hand-crank charger, plug the charging cable into the charger and into your phone, and keep cranking until you get a usable charge.
Use an Eco-Friendly Solar-Powered Charger
Another great choice for outdoor adventures, a solar-powered charger only requires sunlight to run. Solar chargers typically work in one of two ways: Sunlight charges a battery in the unit, which is then used to charge the phone or the solar charger charges the phone directly.
Charge Your Phone With a Car Charger
Most modern vehicles have USB ports that you can use for charging mobile devices. If not, you can buy an adapter that plugs into the lighter port.
Use a Wireless Charger for Easy Charging
If your smartphone works with wireless charging, you don’t have to do anything other than place your phone on the charging pad.
