Many people have the habit of placing their phones face up on the table to easily see notifications. However, this action inadvertently makes the screen susceptible to scratches or cracks due to impact.
Mr. Minh Tuan, a technician in Ho Chi Minh City, said that most screen-related failures are due to this habit. In addition to hardware risks, leaving the screen upside down also exposes personal information from notifications that appear.
In public spaces, other people can read messages, emails or OTP codes on your phone. A constantly bright screen can also distract you, reduce your work efficiency and make it easier to lose focus. When the device is face down, the proximity sensor helps limit screen light, thereby saving battery.
Combined with a protective case, placing your phone face down is a simple yet effective way to protect your device. Dear readers, please watch more videos : Top 10 'Scary' Technology Devices of the Future.
