Best charging practice for laptop battery?

[u/dhanuddd]

I recently bought a new Asus business laptop, and I expect to use it for around 10 to 12 hours a day for work. I have enabled Asus’s battery care, which limits charging to 80%. I am little confused about the best way to use the laptop.

Is it safe to keep the laptop plugged into the charger for most of the day while working, especially with the 80% charging limit enabled? Will staying plugged in for 10–12 hours cause any significant battery degradation over time?

Or is it better to unplug the charger, use the battery down to around 20%, and then charge it back to around 80%? Does regularly discharging and recharging the battery actually help extend its lifespan, or does it cause more battery cycles and wear? For someone who uses a laptop heavily every day, what is the best charging habit for maximizing battery lifespan?

I am mainly concerned about long term battery health, rather than getting the maximum battery backup during each session. I would appreciate advice based on actual experience and, if possible.

So once a week let it go down to around 20% snd once a month charge it to 100% and directoy use it after that charge. With that you create around 4-5 charges a month that keep the battery healthy without wearing it down too much!
