When you get a new phone or tablet or computer you should charge it to ~80% and then wait until it's below 20% before charging again. This will protect the battery life. Basically leaving your phone charging overnight slowly breaks your battery because it's constantly being stuck on maximum capacity straining the internal structure of the battery.

Keeping your devices on WiFi also helps greatly increase the time before the next change
