Why you should not use a smartphone with a broken screen

Why you can't use a smartphone with a broken screen

Many users continue to use smartphones with cracked screens due to the high cost of replacing the display. Such savings can lead to serious problems not only with the device, but also with health.

A damaged screen poses a risk of injury and also affects the operation of the phone's internal components. Cracks in the screen can cause moisture and dust to enter the device. We talk about the reasons why you should not use a smartphone with a broken screen.

Touch panel damage

Modern smartphones work thanks to a sensitive touch panel. Cracks violate the integrity of the sensor layer. Because of this, certain areas of the screen may stop responding to touches or respond incorrectly.

Damage to internal elements

A broken screen creates additional pressure on the internal components of the smartphone. Sharp shards of glass can damage circuits and microcircuits. The elements under the display are particularly vulnerable: the speaker, camera and sensors.

Moisture penetration

Cracks in the screen open the way for moisture and dust to enter the device. Moisture causes contact corrosion and short circuits in electronic components. Dust gets stuck in the internal parts and interferes with the normal operation of the device.

You can get injured

The sharp edges of the cracked glass can cut your fingers during use. Small glass particles can break off and get on the skin. Constant contact with a damaged screen increases the risk of injury.

If immediate replacement of the screen is not possible, it is worth sticking a protective film or glass just above the cracks. This will hold the debris together and reduce the risk of injury. It is also recommended to use an external keyboard and stylus to control the device.
