Common misconceptions about the iPhone that many users still trust

Cát Tiên (T/H) |

Many iPhone users still believe in common misconceptions that affect the performance and longevity of the device.

The iPhone is one of the most popular technology products in the world, famous for its sophisticated design, powerful performance and security ecosystem. However, besides the advantages, there are still many misunderstandings that many users believe are distorted, affecting the experience and way of using the product.

Myth 1: iPhone is never affected by viruses or malware

Many people believe that the iPhone is completely safe from viruses and malware thanks to the iOS operating system closely controlling the App Store.

But security expert Kevin Mitnick, a former US blogger, said: Although iOS is much safer than open operating systems like Android, the iPhone can still be attacked through security vulnerabilities, especially when users jailbreak or install the application from unknown sources.

Therefore, being careful in downloading applications and updating software is still very necessary.

Myth 2: Charging your iPhone overnight will damage the battery

Many people are worried that charging the battery overnight will make a bottle of the battery, reducing its life. However, Apple has integrated smart charging management technology to help limit battery overload. If using a genuine charger and standard cables, charging overnight with a modern iPhone will not harm the battery as much as before.

However, to optimize battery life, users should avoid charging continuously when the battery is full for a long time.

Myth 3: iPhone needs no maintenance or cleaning

Some people think that the iPhone does not need to be cleaned or maintained periodically because of its closed design and waterproof capability. In fact, regular cleaning helps avoid dirt clogging the charging port, reducing battery performance and affecting the sensor. Software updates are also important for patching security errors and improving performance.

Myth 4: Buying the latest iPhone is necessary every year

Some users believe that to have the best experience, they have to upgrade their iPhone every year.

However, Apple releases new iPhones every year, but not every user needs to change phones immediately. iPhone models from 2-3 years ago still run smoothly and support long-term software updates.

The right understanding of the iPhone helps users use the device effectively, economically and protect personal data well. Users need to update their knowledge, avoid inaccurate rumors and know how to properly care for the device to make the most of the product's value.
