Maybe you have experienced bloated Smartphone batteries , especially for you older mobile users. But some smartphones also with various OS (Operating System) have experienced it such as Android, iPhone (iOS), Blackberry, Symbian (Nokia), Microsoft, and others. Many factors cause the Smartphone battery to experience bloating, which even in a condition can result in an explosion.
Often for cell phones or cell phones that have been used for a long time, Smartphone batteries can swell by themselves. Eventually we became distressed to close the Smartphone casing because of the damaged battery. If it's like this, you have to replace the Smartphone battery with a new one, it is recommended to buy the original battery to be more durable and last longer.
What actually causes the battery to be bloated like filled with water or gas? How to handle it? Let's look at the reviews below.
1. Battery life
The new battery certainly has good performance and lasts a long time when used. But, batteries that are old have certainly experienced a decline in quality and performance and must be replaced for safety.
The age of the battery itself also affects the damage of the battery (bloating). But the size of the battery life itself varies according to the type of battery itself.
The longer the battery's life, the more vulnerable it is that the battery will bubble. Long-term use does cause battery ballooning.
2. Battery quality
Original or original batteries certainly have durability and relatively long life. Unlike the fake batteries that heat up quickly and even run out quickly when used for standby only. It is better to buy an original Smartphone battery, although a little more expensive, the most important is quality and comfort guaranteed.
3. Extreme temperatures
Placing Smartphone in cold or hot temperatures will cause different battery conditions. Cell phones that are often in cold temperatures may be able to reduce heat and make more battery-efficient when used. But if the cell phone is not used, the battery quality will also decrease due to cold temperatures. However, if it is in a temperature that is too hot it is certain that the age of the battery quickly decreases and bloating quickly. Even if you just leave your cell phone in standby condition, the battery will also remain drained.
4. Airtight
Be careful using a smartphone that has a non-removable battery, aka a battery that cannot be removed. Because the casing or cover cannot be opened so that air is difficult to get inside, which makes the battery heat up quickly and under certain conditions can be bloated. Moreover, a waterproof smartphone must be airtight which makes the battery heat up quickly. In addition, the gap that is so narrow between the battery and cover or casing also affects.
5. Extreme use
There are several factors that can cause the Smartphone battery to swell, and the most influential factor is the use by the owner. Smartphone is never free from our grasp. Mobile phones that have never been rested and used in an extreme manner can cause the battery to heat up quickly. And this is what makes the Smartphone battery bloated. The habit you often use a smartphone to browse on the internet to gaming, using social media with a long time span can make your battery heat up quickly and eventually balloon.
6. Inappropriate charger
The use of inappropriate charger is also one of the causes. Using a charger that is not the default charger in an emergency may not be a problem. But if used in the long run will be able to cause damage to the battery because the output of the charger in question such as voltage and current will certainly be different from the default charger. Especially if you use a "fake" charger, it will potentially have a bigger damage to the battery quickly because its security system is still in doubt.
7. A fake Powerbank
The "fake" power bank is a factor in the swelling of your Smartphone battery. Can not be avoided at this time powerbank has become one of the additional accessories that must be taken by smartphone users to increase standby time when the battery starts to weaken.
However, the use of powerbank with the brand "fake" can cause battery damage due to the lack of security systems used. The usual symptoms caused by the device feels too hot when using the POWERBANK.
