          In general there is no problem charging your mobile phone over the USB interface of your laptop.

          Read: ExtremeTech: How USB charging works, or how to avoid blowing up your smartphone



          I think a usual safety measure is to avoid placing things like passive USB hubs between the laptop and the mobile phone -- particularly, avoid connecting multiple devices on the same port with such techniques. These days I think even that is covered by the electronics in your laptop (the USB port survives such power pull).
