How to properly care for a smartphone: useful tips for a long service life of the device

A smartphone is an integral part of our lives, storing contacts, photos, applications and other important data. To make your device work for a long time and flawlessly, you should properly care for it. In this article, YSTNews will share useful recommendations that will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your smartphone.

1. Protect the screen and case

Use a protective glass or film

The smartphone screen is most susceptible to mechanical damage. Protective glass or film will help prevent scratches and cracks.

  • Choose tempered glass for better protection.
  • For budget devices, you can choose a film.

Buy a quality case

  • Book cases provide full protection device.
  • Silicone cases are lightweight and protect the case from impacts.
  • For folding smartphones, there are special cases that do not limit functionality.

2. Avoid overheating

Do not leave your phone in direct sunlight

Overheating can affect performance and damage the battery.

  • Avoid leaving your smartphone in the car in the summer.
  • Do not use the device while charging in hot conditions.

Use only original chargers

Defective or uncertified chargers can overheat the smartphone and damage the battery.

3. Take care of the battery

Do not allow full discharge

Modern lithium-ion batteries do not like complete discharge.

  • Charge your smartphone when the charge level reaches 20–30%.
  • Do not leave the device connected to charge after reaching 100%.

Use energy saving function

This will extend the life of the battery. Turn on the power saving mode when the remaining charge is low.

4. Clean your device regularly

Clean the screen and case

  • Use soft microfiber for cleaning.
  • Do not use harsh chemicals — they can damage the oleophobic coating.
  • Try isopropyl alcohol to remove grease stains.

Clean the connectors

  • Periodically clean the charging port from dust with a soft brush or toothpick.
  • Avoid water and liquids getting into connectors.

5. Protect your smartphone from moisture

Use waterproof cases

If your smartphone does not have water protection (IP68), a waterproof case will be a great solution.

Do not place the device in wet places

Water resistance may weaken over time, so avoid using your smartphone in the bathroom or on the beach without a case.

6. Update your software

Regularly install updates

Manufacturers release updates that provide better performance and security.

  • Make sure your smartphone automatically receives the latest updates.

Avoid memory overload

  • Remove unnecessary apps and files.
  • Use cloud storage to back up your data.

7. Avoid excessive vibration

Continuous vibration reduces the life of the vibration module motor. Use vibration only for important notifications.

8. Back up your data

Use cloud services

Backing up your data will protect your files in case your smartphone is lost or damaged.

Regularly transfer important files to your computer

This will free up memory and protect your data.

Conclusion

Taking care of your smartphone will help not only maintain its aesthetic appearance, but also extend its service life. Follow these simple recommendations and your device will serve you longer, remaining in excellent condition.
