Can you safely use your Samsung Galaxy while charging?

Last Update date : Aug 02. 2025

Quick answer


Yes, you can use your phone or tablet while charging. There is no danger in doing so. When you use your device while it's charging, the battery charges more slowly to provide enough power for active use. This is normal and safe.
