We would like to take this opportunity to remind you of some common mistakes to avoid to preserve your smartphone for longer:
- Exposing it to the sun : At the beach, on a patio, or on a car dashboard, your phone can quickly overheat. The result? Its battery is damaged, its performance diminishes… and in some cases, this can cause irreversible damage.
- Charge it while it’s still warm : If you’ve just been playing a game or using a power-intensive app, let it cool down before plugging it in. Otherwise, overheating can damage its components.
- Clicking on suspicious files : It can’t be stressed enough: avoid downloading suspicious files or links received via text or email. They may contain unwanted software that slows down your device—or even seriously damage it.
In short: a small gesture, big effects
Turning your phone over may seem like a simple gesture. Yet, this simple action saves battery life, avoids distractions… and even reflects a certain mastery of your relationship with digital technology. So, the next time you put it down, ask yourself: am I really on the right side of the screen?
A phone used well is also a small step towards a more peaceful and connected life… to what really matters.
