Problems that happen in the summer with computers and cell phones

 

Summer is synonymous with heat, beach, pool! We love it, but our electronic equipment… not so much! If you are not careful, your cell phone or computer could end up damaged.

Here are some tips to make the most of it and protect your equipment from the sun, sand, heat, water and even sea air!

 

  

Sand

 

sand is one of the biggest enemies of technology. The fine grains, which are practically impossible to clean, infiltrate the holes of cell phones and cameras and stick to the screen. Sand can scratch the screen and scratch it. corners of the equipmentor even enter through openings, which could impair the functioning of electronic devices. The inputs that you should most protect are: the charger and the sound.

The best way to prevent your equipment from coming into contact with sand is to store them in a bag and only use them when necessary, storing them after use. There are even plastic covers suitable for the beach.

 

 

Water

 

falls in water are a large part of technological damage in summer. Currently, many smartphones are already designed waterproof but that doesn't mean they can withstand a “dive”! If you want to use your cell phone near the pool or the sea, the best option is to buy a waterproof caseso you can even dive and take the best photos! There are also many waterproof digital cameras (Ex: GoPro). Be especially careful with seawater as it is extremely corrosive and damages the internal components of technological equipment! No amount of rice can save a cell phone from falling into the sea.

 

 

Heat

 

Sand and water damage are the most obvious dangers to your equipment but there is an invisible enemy that is often overlooked! heat leads to overheating of devices, which can cause damage to the central processing unit and affect battery life >. This phenomenon is very common in cell phones and computers, but it also happens in cameras.

In the case of laptop computers, you can buy a fan (cooler) to cool it down, thus avoiding battery overload and getting even better performance. performance.

 

 

Sea spray

 

Finally, the sea air: that salty breeze from the coast. This phenomenon is very aggressive for technological equipment as it contains chemical substances such as saltsthat end up entering the devices and corroding the internal hardware. Unlike sea water,the effect of salt air is felt in the long term after several exposures to it. The tip to avoid damage is the same: try to reduce the use of equipment as much as possible and protect it, in a bag or with a towel, while you are not using it. them.
