Hello! Im a student who has online classes throughout the day. I also do gaming so i always use my laptop while plugged.

What I've been doing is to shut down my computer everytime I'm not doing anything. Is it better to just leave it plugged and put it in sleep mode while I wait for my next tasks?

    @rdanielba yes, you can leave it plugged because this will reduce the charging cycle of the battery and increase its health. For a long time without using the laptop(>8 hours), just unplug the cable from the outlet to reduce electricity usage.
    Please remember to include @AnhEZ28 when you want to reply back to my comment so that I can check your response.
    Thank you and have a nice day!
