Be careful while using the phone
- If most of the smartphones are used for a long time, then its back panel starts heating up. Such precautions should be taken especially while using the phone during summer.
- The vapor chamber cooling feature is provided in gaming and premium smartphones, which prevents the device from heating up to a great extent, but most of the budget and mid-range phones get heated up when used for a long time.
- Its back panel starts heating up quickly after watching videos, playing games, using camera and surfing the internet on the phone for a long time. In this case, we should keep the phone in a cool place (not in the fridge) and use it.
- If the smartphone is old then take it to the service center and get its battery checked. Smartphones use lithium (Li-ion) batteries, which are at risk of exploding when they get old. In this case, the battery of the phone should be replaced.
