Releasing a new mobile is always a satisfaction, especially for technology lovers. Unsealing a box, opening it and removing the plastics are pleasures that for many rival those of exploding bubbles in packaging. However, whether or not the above is exactly the same, there are several red lines that are not recommended to cross when we launch a mobile, capital sins that we should not commit so that everything goes well, or get the most out of it.
In our site we frequently tell you the best we can do with our mobile, but also those things that we should not do. If we follow these guidelines we can make our device last much longer and we will get much more out of it. Not every day a new mobile is released and for this reason we will have to pamper it as it deserves.
Use another charger
This is one of the first points that we have to take into account. Seeing that the port, microUSB or USB-C of their new mobile matches the old one, many users are lazy and cautious not to unpack the new charger, and continue using the one plugged into the bedside table. This is a clear mistake and one of the first things to avoid for several compelling reasons:
- Performance problems : if your brand new mobile supports a type of charge (fast, for example) it is possible that the charger you currently have does not provide the necessary watts and you do not take advantage of the charging capacities. It may not charge as fast as it can, and may not cycle completely.
- Overcharge problems : all manufacturers without exception recommend using the original charger and not alternating it with that of other brands. This will avoid problems.
- Warranty Issues: If there is a problem arising from the above (battery damage or worse) the manufacturer may not take over the warranty if it discovers that we have not used the proper charger.
Not protect you
Seeing a new mobile shattered within hours of being released is common. Manufacturers had long ago the “great” idea to make our phones with glass and similar materials, which will break at the slightest fall. Getting a protective case and protective glass for your screen is no longer an excuse. In addition, many stores already have their own cutting “plotter”, which allows them to have any hydrogel screen protector, whatever your mobile model.
Do not take advantage of your mobile
Having a new mobile and not taking advantage of it is something that we must also avoid. Today’s smartphones, whatever their range, have infinite possibilities for personalization, photography, gaming, etc … Being attentive to our site is something very smart to start 2021, since we are sure that you will be able to read more than one tutorial for your mobile that will discover those functions that you did not know or will solve the simplest question no matter how complicated it may seem. In addition, all the main brands have their own forums, where you can share with other users the concerns of your specific model and continue learning.
Throw ticket or invoice
The mobiles have a two-year official guarantee in Spain. It usually happens that after a while, we do not know where the ticket or bill for our device is . This is another of the great failures, since we will be totally defenseless against any operating problem, which could have covered the guarantee. Therefore and now that you are on time, keep your ticket in a safe place and take a photo of it to have a copy of it.
