Overheating is a risk to your smartphone, especially when the weather is very hot and summer is coming. This risk can destroy your phone’s battery. However, don’t worry. This summer, we bring you 5 tips to deal with this heating issue.

Save your phone’s battery life

The first and also the easiest tip is turn off battery-draining apps. Browsing or using the networks like 3G or 4G LTE is very battery-consuming. The direction apps such as GPS and location service are also the battery stealers. Closing the apps is not only battery-saving but it also decreases the heat of your phone. Besides those apps, gaming is also a factor causing your device overheat.

Second, you need to charge you phone properly. Remember to remove the case when you charge. If you forget to take it off, this may cause the cell to heat up. In some cases, this may cause an explosion. You also shouldn’t charge your phone too long in the day when the temperature is hot. Just charge your phone up to about 70-80% in the daytime, and fully charge it at night.

We can’t stand the sunlight too long, especially in the summer. And so do your smartphone. Long sunlight exposure could ruin your phone’s battery. So the next tip for this heating issue is keep the phone cool in a large pocket or a bag. Try not to put your handset in a tight pocket. It’s not good, especially in the place that you usually get sweaty. Moreover, the case is also a reason to make your phone overheat. Taking off your case phone can cool down the phone.

Take care of your battery

One last tip can cool your phone down is take care its battery. A battery need to be replaced after a year or after about 300-500 charging times. You need to replace the battery after about 1-2 years since you bought your device. When you change it, make sure you replace it with the original one (from the vendor or from the recommended 3rd party). If you go with a cheap battery, this will cause the overheated condition for your phone. This can help you a lot in heating issue.

In a recent list of top 12 best selling smartphones, Chinese phones occupy 2/3 of the chart! So why are Chinese smartphones so popular in the market? Take a look at the 5 reasons below!

Chinese Phones: Wonderful specs with super affordable price!

When we talk about Chinese phones, the first thing we may think of is the affordable price. With the same specs, a Chinese phone costs only half as much as a Korean or US phone! This is easy to understand, because human resource in China is much cheaper than in Korea or the US. Many users assume that those cheap Chinese phones are not as trustworthy as phones from other brands. That might be true years ago, but now, those brands really focus on the technology and people’s needs.

Second, Chinese phones feature amazing specs. You can easily find an octa core processor within a Chinese budget phones (Meizu M3S for example)! And this rarely happens with Korean or American budget phones! Not only the processor, other specs are also impressive! 4000mAh, 21MP camera, or 4GB RAM are common specs found in random Chinese phones. You don’t really need to opt for a high-end smartphone to have such great specs!

One more highlight in Chinese phones is the brilliant design! If iPhone is famous for its single-button front construction, or Samsung is well-known for its Edge product line, Chinese phones come with both designs! It seems like Chinese designers put lots of effort in the design. Lately Lenovo has just revealed its foldable tablet and flexible smartphone, which are the first in the market!

Chinese Phones: Great apps and high benchmark score!

Chinese phones are not only famous for their specs, but also for their abundant apps! They come with a strong team of developers, who are extremely creative. They offers millions of useful apps for users. You may be currently using one of those. Moreover, Chinese phones get very high benchmark scores. For example, Zenfone 3 Deluxe came at first on Antutu’s list of best smartphone! That’s why Chinese brands get more and more trust from customers and their products are more and more popular.

After the Nokia deal expired, we haven’t seen any new smartphone from Microsoft. And now, the company might have a big return with Microsoft Lumia Edge. With 6GB RAM, 32MP cam, this Edge promises to be a super powerful smartphone. 

Microsoft Lumia Edge: 6GB RAM and 256GB ROM

Lumia- the name we barely mention at this time, especially in the market full of popular names like OnePlus, Samsung, etc. And now, this name is probably coming back with a totally new concept. The render was designed by Armend Lleshi. The new smartphone will be called Microsoft Lumia Edge. As its name, the device will have the curved screen display.

This concept reminds us of Samsung design. It seems like that Armend took the Edge idea from Samsung and put on Lumia. This Edge feature makes this new phone have a different look from its predecessors. The handset comes with a metallic unibody design. The speaker slit at the bottom looks incredible. The rear of the phone is quite simple with a main cam along with LED flash, and a company logo.

Microsoft Lumia Edge: Microsoft comes back?

This phone could be a return of the software giant. With the beautiful design and powerful specs, Microsoft can come back right away to the market and defeat the others rivals.

Nokia E1 is no longer a stranger to many of us. It has been talked about and received crazy attention ever since Nokia comeback in 2016 was confirmed. In fact, it is  also the first ever Nokia smartphone render we have, and stays the best ever. In contrast, Nokia 767 is a brand new render just spotted very recently. The phone caught attention by having a very fancy design that looks similar to that of the old school Nokia 7610 leaf phone we all remember.

In terms of Nokia 767 VS Nokia E1 specs, we have the same RAM capacity since both phones target as the lower end market. Featuring 2GB RAM, Nokia 767 VS Nokia E1 are said to be strong enough for many people, despite the fact that we already have up to 6GB RAM on the market nowadays. While Nokia E1 seems to feature 5.0 inch display, the 767 Lumia smartphone will likely have even a smaller one.

The most significant difference between Nokia 767 VS Nokia E1 is their operating system. While Nokia E1 is a classic bomb by sporting the popular Android OS, Nokia 767 carries the company’s signature – Windows Phone. We can not deny that many people do enjoy Android phone, but Windows phones still have their own advantages and loyal fans.

1. Samsung Galaxy S7 Active

First up in our list of best 4GB RAM smartphones is Samsung Galaxy S7 Active. This product is designed for active users who love enduring smartphones. With an extra layer of polycarbonate and the additional bulk in the design, S7 Active can survive dropping. Moreover, the outer layer of the phone also makes it water-resistant. So don’t worry if you forget this phone in pocket while swimming.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Active specs are also impressive. Under the hood, there is a SoC Exynos 820 chipset sitting on a quad-core processor. The phone is also powered by 4GB of RAM, which creates a perfect performance. The phone’s storage arrives in two variants: 32GB and 64GB.

iPhone 4SE design has a very familiar feel to that of iPhone 4s, with a more premium and modern front side. However, iPhone 4SE has a bigger 4-inch screen while the 4s has just a 3.5-inch one. Moreover, the iPhone 4SE screen (6.3mm) is slimmer than that of iPhone 4s (9.3mm).  iPhone 4SE camera will also be more enhanced compared to its sibling.

Apple iPhone 4SE – Expected to make a hit in 2016
