How to Extend the Lifespan of Your Phone and PC

A few regular habits can extend the lifespan of a phone and computer. The aim is to limit heat, impacts and data loss.
Protect without obstructing cooling
Use a suitable case for your phone and a carrying sleeve for your laptop. Avoid direct sunlight, moisture and surfaces that block the vents. Do not pull on cables, and keep connectors clean. Have hinges or ports that become loose checked before more serious damage occurs.
Maintain the battery and software
Choose a compatible charger and avoid extreme temperatures during charging. Use the battery protection features provided by the manufacturer. Install official updates and remove unnecessary apps. Do not let an overheating problem keep recurring: it can accelerate wear.
Back up and act early
Schedule regular backups and test restoring them. Keep some storage space free and have the cooling system serviced if necessary. A swollen battery, mechanical noise or repeated shutdowns should be investigated promptly. Early diagnosis helps prevent a minor defect from causing a more serious failure.
