Users need to know how to take care of their smartphone (smartphone), so as not to be damaged by sunlight, sand or seawater.

Be careful with the sunlight

Hot weather can cause your smartphone to heat up to dangerous levels. To avoid the risk of overheating, which can damage the device, it is necessary to avoid letting your smartphone get too much exposure to sunlight.

To cool your phone quickly, simply place the phone in the shade or in a cool place for a few minutes and remove the protective cover or back cover for a moment.

You can also place your phone near a fan, but never leave it in the refrigerator. In cars, when it is hot, place your phone in the glove compartment instead of on a chair or near the windshield.

As a general rule, it is best to turn off WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS when you don't need them, so as not to overheat the battery. If this method is ineffective, just turn off your smartphone and turn it back on after a few minutes, and the phone will return to normal temperature.

Fortunately, most phone models today automatically turn off when they exceed a certain temperature. Finally, you should choose a cool place to recharge your smartphone.

Smartphones and sand

It is probably best to avoid using your smartphone at the beach. Sand is a risk for many reasons. Large grain sand can easily scratch the screen, while smaller grain sand can get into the connection gates and damage the inside of the device.

Before taking your smartphone for a vacation, remember to equip your phone with a back cover and a protective layer on the screen.

When you're not using it, place your phone in a waterproof bag, such as a refrigerated bag with a scissors. If your smartphone comes into contact with sand or seawater, rinse gently with clean water and a piece of soft cloth.

risks of returning home

Finally, if your phone falls into the water, don't try to dry it by putting it in the rice. Like sand, small particles can get into the device and damage the inside.

In fact, it is best to turn off the device immediately, then place it in a dry, well-ventilated place. Then, you can incline your phone back, the connector head down, and tap gently to let the water flow out.

You can also dry with a paper towel or soft cloth, paying attention not to insert any strange objects such as paper towels, fabric... into the connections. In any case, you should not use a hair dryer or microwave to remove the last traces of moisture.
