Like other devices, your smartphone may occasionally become warm during regular usage. Heat flows from your charger to your gadget, particularly when charging your phone battery. However, discovering that your smartphone is usually constantly too hot to hold may indicate a deeper problem. You’ll probably need to take your phone in for repair if a battery issue or manufacturing flaw is the heat source. Try these five preventative measures to keep your phone from overheating before you schedule an appointment.
You could be more inclined to leave your cell phone unattended in a hot car or the open as summer draws closer. You should treat your phone with the same care and protection that you offer your body when it comes to overheating and sun exposure. In the end, an overheated phone might result in:
To stop your phone from overheating in the first place, try these five suggestions.
Your mobile device works harder and consumes more processing power when many apps are active simultaneously. Close off useless programs whenever you can, as opposed to leaving them running in the background. Double-click the home button to close an app on an iPhone and then slide up.
The amount of heat produced by your phone increases when Bluetooth and other battery-sucking services are enabled. You can eventually require a battery replacement or repair if you constantly leave Bluetooth on. Try turning off Bluetooth mode and avoiding prolonged use when not in use. If your phone automatically pairs with Bluetooth as soon as you get in your car, consider disabling it and reconnecting manually as necessary.
Consider using airplane mode on your smartphone if you want to spend extended periods of time outside in the heat. This turns off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and cellular radio on your mobile device. One of the quickest methods to reduce battery-draining functions is to enable airplane mode. Before turning it on, ensure you’re not anticipating an urgent call from someone because you won’t be able to use Wi-Fi or take incoming calls.
Increasing your phone’s brightness drains more battery life and raises the internal temperature, much like background apps do. Consider getting an anti-glare screen protector for your smartphone if you need to increase the screen’s brightness to see well outside on a hot day.
The simplest approach to stop your phone from overheating is to shield it from the sun’s damaging rays, which may sound like a no-brainer. Overexposure to sunlight can harm your phone similarly to how the cold affects it. Your phone absorbs heat from overhead sunlight when it strikes it and keeps doing so for as long as it is exposed. Your phone will gradually heat up until the hard disc begins to expand and finally sustains damage.
