On a lighter note, I used to think about this since I got my phone until I turned off the Battery Percentage indicator from showing, and now I don't worry one bit and just enjoy having a battery that lasts longer than 6 hours (thank you iPhone 5 🙄) Anyone else worried just turn it off, makes everything easier.

Just enjoy your phone and don't keep your eyes glued to the battery percentage all day.

I actually turned off the percentage icon for that reason exactly. I meant this to be a sarcastic thread to lighten up the mood, i'll make it more obvious.
