My brother's one line about charging my phone at 15% saved my trip

My brother always said I need to charge at 15%, not 5%, because the phone dies faster than the meter shows. Last weekend I was in Portland and ignored him, hit 8% with a 30 minute bus ride ahead of me. I had the last photo of a sunset I wanted to keep, but the phone shut off mid-upload and the file got corrupted. He was right, the battery drains like crazy below 10% on my model. Anybody else have a family member whose phone habit advice turned out to be spot on?

My sister's 20% rule saved my phone from a dead battery at the airport.
