Why you shouldn't use a smartphone with a broken screen: what can be the consequences

 When a smartphone falls due to hitting a hard surface, the screen most often suffers, and cracks and even chips may appear on it.

But sometimes users do not pay much attention to this defect for a long time. The display of the device shows a picture without distortion, reacts well to touch, so you can continue to use the device, moreover, replacing the display is quite expensive, according to some users. However, this is a very big mistake that will lead to consequences in the future, writes Pixelinform.

Damage to the touch panel

The first possible problem of a broken screen is a malfunction of the touch panel. A smartphone with a broken screen may react more slowly to the touch than with a full glass screen.

A worse option is also possible, when clicking on some places of the screen, the device will not respond at all.

Even if nothing has changed immediately in the behavior of the phone, there is no guarantee that in the near future, at a crucial moment, there will be no problems with the sensor and the user will not be able to receive or send an important message.

Damage to internal elements

Broken display glass exerts mechanical pressure on the smartphone matrix to some extent. In the same way, other elements of the internal filling of the device begin their micro-motion when the vibrator is activated.

In the process of further operation, the operation of the processor, batteries and other components attached to the smartphone board is gradually disrupted.

Moisture penetration

The main enemy of a smartphone is moisture that got inside. When using a device with a cracked screen glass, minimal amounts of moisture penetrate into the device.

The process of its accumulation will be long, so the phone will not fail immediately. Its elements will gradually oxidize under the influence of moisture and may unexpectedly fail at the most critical moment.

It's bad for your health

Almost all modern mobile communication devices have touch screens. Smartphones are controlled by touching the screen with your fingers. Broken glass that has not crumbled can easily cut your fingers.

In addition, if a large area of the screen is covered with cracks, the strain on the eyes will increase when viewing content. They will get tired 2-3 times faster.

What to do if it is temporarily impossible to replace the display

If there are no large cracks and chips on the glass, a special protective film should be pasted on it. It will protect the matrix and prevent finger cuts, as well as prevent moisture from entering the smartphone.

In the presence of a large number of large cracks and chips, the best option will be a special shockproof cover that does not allow moisture to pass through.
