How to extend the life of your smartphone?!

These tips will help you extend the life of your device.

Many of us, out of habit, ignorance, or accidents (which can easily be avoided), shorten the life of our smartphones.

Discharge to zero
Lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries have a peculiarity - if the charge is completely used up, their capacity gradually decreases. So that this does not happen, it is enough to charge the smartphone when the battery is discharged to a maximum of 10%, or even better earlier. Then it will last much longer. It is also recommended to charge the phone not to 100%, but to 80%. Some apps (such as AccuBattery) play a sound message that it's time to remove the device from charging. Theoretically, if the battery is charged between 40 and 80%, it will work as long as possible.

Cheap chargers and batteries
It is dangerous to use fake chargers and non-original batteries. Many of them are busy and do not provide an adequate level of security due to the fact that manufacturers save on literally everything: wires, controllers, etc.

Bad cable
Using a bad cable is harmful. Due to poor insulation, the wires can become tangled, which will lead to the failure of the charger or a short circuit in the smartphone controller and damage to the logic board.

Bad case
A poor-quality cover with poor ventilation can cause the battery to overheat when charging or using resource-intensive applications. An overheated battery can catch fire. If you use a thick case, please remove it when charging and playing.

Dust
Dust that gets into a smartphone can be harmful. It's one thing when it gets under the glass of the screen and interferes only visually, it's another thing when it gets wet and can cause a short circuit. Do not allow dust to enter - do not keep the smartphone in dirty places.

Water
Water has a negative effect on a smartphone. If it is not properly protected, moisture can enter through the charging port, audio output or speakers. A short circuit, the occurrence of which is facilitated by water, causes an increase in the current, heating and failure of the device components. Water can get into your smartphone in the rain, in the bathroom, or when you spill even a few drops of tea or other liquid on it.

Fall
Perhaps the most common calamity that kills a smartphone is a fall onto a hard surface from a great height. You can protect yourself from damage with the help of a cover. As a rule, the thicker it is, the stronger it is, but even a simple silicone bumper (even if it is made with your own hands) can be a lifesaver.
