If the phone is on charging, neither play games nor talk to it.
If you don’t make these 3 mistakes, you can be saved…
- Do not keep phone overloaded: If there are too many apps and content in the smartphone, then it starts heating up quickly. So keep the memory free from 75 to 80%.
- Use only original charger: The charger that was received with the phone at the time of purchase is the original one. Due to duplicate charger, the battery gets damaged and starts heating up quickly.
- Do not talk while charging: If the phone is on charging, neither play games nor talk to it.
Chemical changes take place in the battery during charging, hence it overheats.
Mobile expert Vicky Adyani explains that the cells of the battery remain dead during charging, due to which chemical changes occur inside the phone, and during this time the battery overheats and explodes due to talking on the phone or playing games. The radiation around the phone also becomes high during charging. In such a situation, the battery explodes as soon as the call is received.
