Shared rules for both

No matter which port your device has, a few habits will keep it charging reliably:

Use the right charger: Don't grab a random fast charger that pushes too many watts. Stick with the charger that came with your device, or one with similar output. Overpowering can damage the battery.
Keep the port clean: Dust and lint love to collect in there. Blow it out occasionally or use a soft brush. A dirty port means poor connection and slow charging.
Don't charge right after a cold walk: If your device is freezing, give it a few minutes to warm up. Charging a cold battery can stress it.
Pack a spare cable: Cables are the first thing to fail. Throw a backup in your bag. For micro-USB, that's even more important because they break easily.

These apply to everyone, from first-timers to road warriors.
