When smartphones become overheated, they start to impair their performance and can be seriously damaged. There are some cases where calls have exploded or caught fire, but in these cases heat is usually a symptom (of battery malfunction) rather than a cause of the problem.
Your iPhone may have exploded, but resolving overheating problems should give you peace of mind and help it work properly. In this article we provide 11 simple tips for cooling the hottest iPhone.
Tips for keeping the iPhone cool
If your iPhone is still overheating, you should investigate how and when to use it. These tips will help you:
- Remove the cover. The extra artificial layer makes it difficult for the phone to cool. You could also consider a case for pedestrian areas, such as Razer Arctech Pro.
- Don't leave it in the sunshine, when temperatures can rise quickly. Take your iPhone with you to the parking lot.
- You may need to avoid direct sunlight when you are in an extremely hot climate. If you're on vacation in a very sunny place, keep the iPhone in a bag or in the shade. Avoid using the phone if possible.
- Avoid games. Games, and especially high-quality drawings, tax the processor, which burns the tool. RA applications may be particularly sought after.
- Stop using Bluetooth, as it provides an extra heat source. You can do it from the Control Center: swipe from the top (or down from the top right of the iPhone without the home button) and then tap the Bluetooth icon.
- Disable location service. GPS is probably the most heating function of iDevice. Turn it off using Settings> Privacy> Location services.
- Avoid using turn-by-turn directions in Maps. This method produces a lot of heat.
- Avoid charging until you get to the cooler or until the iPhone gets a chance to cool off. The case burns the app.
- Activate flight mode. This enables GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Cellular data. It's in control: touch the flight icon.
- If you can manage without notifications, we suggest that you turn off the iPhone altogether if you do not use it. Press and hold the Sleep / wake button and slide to turn off the phone. (If you have an iPhone 11 or other phone without the home button, you must press and hold the power button and one of the volume buttons).
- There are certain products on the market that call for cool hot phones, such as the 10W Fast Wireless Charger and the Momen Phone Game Controller and Cooler, both of which include fans.
- We also found that the one in charge of the Moshi powered cars, which arrive in the driver's windows of your car, tends to cool the phone as a side effect when the air conditioner is at a high level.
We hope these tips help you keep your iPhone running at acceptable temperatures. Otherwise, there may be serious failures, and you should make time to meet with Apple experts or experts to fix it.
Is it too hot for my iPhone?
All current iPhones are designed to operate at temperatures between 0 and 35º C.
A few degrees in any way for a short period of time in several sectors should not cause long-term damage, but iPhone owners in hot or cold countries may need more caution.
It is important to remember that these temperatures apply to iPhone usage. Apple says it's safe to keep an iPhone – but don't use it – at any temperature between 20 and 45º C.
You should be careful when leaving the iPhone out in the winter, or in a parked car in the middle of summer. Both of these factors can raise the temperature of its working level.
What happens when the iPhone burns?
When the iPhone becomes extremely powerful, it will issue a warning message indicating that the iPhone "needs to be cool before it can be used." Usually, this will be displayed behind a black background, even if you use navigation it will appear as a overlay.
To start using your phone faster, turn it off, move it to a cool place and allow it to slow down. The following things will happen when your iPhone is in cooling mode:
- Device stops charging.
- The screen is black or black.
- Mobile radios will fall under state control. The signal may be weak at this time.
- He light camera is temporarily disabled.
This can be a small idea when you first see it. But without the hassle of not being able to use the phone for a while, there are usually no problems.
Should I be worried if my iPhone gets hot?
Not generally. Apple advises users that it is normal for the iPhone to warm up when it requires tasks such as refresh, back-up from backup, data analysis (for photo-face tags, for example) or using an AR system. You should return to normal temperatures once the work is done.
Can my iPhone explode?
It is impossible.
It is known that iPhones have reached critical levels – when the carpet in a Florida woman's car has melted – but those have been isolated cases and are often the result of some sort of accident.
An iPhone that melts the carpet, for example, had fallen into the pool some time earlier.
(If your iPhone falls into the water and miraculously recovers, you should still have a test. Internal rust may cause problems later.)
In March 2017, an iPhone 6 Plus security camera was filmed, which had been taken to a repair shop, fired by its frightened owner when it began to smoke.
Simon Owen, a store owner (in Australia), reported after "our service desk has a big hole."
In this case the phone had previously been damaged, and the & # 39; explosion & # 39; it seems to happen when the owner presses the broken screen to show what's wrong. But it was not an unprecedented event, and even at that store, the owner said the same thing had happened with the iPhone 5 three years ago.
"When they explode, they smoke like this because two chemicals interact with the battery," Owen said. "It causes toxic green fog. It burns the whole barrel."
Now lately, you've heard of Samsung and overheating (but not so good, it's copy) Note the 7 phablet. The batteries of some Note 7 phones burned at dangerous levels, so much so that Samsung completely removed the product.
This is somewhat scary, but keep in mind that it only affects this model of Samsung smartphone line, and none of the Apple iPhone line.
Competitive phone makers sometimes supply components – including battery units – from similar suppliers, but as yet there is no suggestion that this failure will create problems for Apple or other companies other than Samsung.
