An electronic device and a charging method thereof are provided, wherein the electronic device has a battery and is connected to a power supply. In the charging method, it is determined whether a current time of the electronic device is in a specific time interval. During the specific time interval, it is determined whether a remaining power of the battery is more than a lower bound of power. If yes, the battery is stopped form being charged and the battery is solely used to keep the electronic device working; otherwise, the power supply is controlled and an intermittence charging procedure is used to charge the battery in accordance with the lower bound of power. While not in the specific time interval, a normal charging procedure is used to charge the battery. By switching between the two different charging procedures, purposes of charging effectively and lowering electricity bills are both achieved. |
