6 Tips To Maintain Your iPhone & Keep Scratches Off Its Back

By Oliver Evans

Your iPhone is an investment, and you surely don't want to spoil it by not maintaining it, or allowing it to get covered with scratches. Protect your iPhone with these hints, and you will be able to enjoy it for much longer!

One. Keep your iPhone away from things that can scratch it. If any case youre going to put it in your pocket or purse, dont put it in the same pocket you keep your keys or your change, as either one is in all probability likely to scratch it.

Two. Get a cover. There is a plethora of types of cases available for you to utilise to protect your iPhone. Numerous of them include flip cases, slip pouches, gel skins, rigid cases, weather resistant cases, and leather covers. You could get sports cases for when you do not have a pocket or a free hand. Sports covers are arm-bands with an attached pocket or sleeve for your iPhone. If youre fashion conscious, you can also get Gucci or other designer iPhone covers. You could get cases that look like purses. Iphone cases come in every color thinkable. Some cases fit so tightly round your phone, leaving the screen open for you, that they look like the handphone itself. So whatever your preference in a case, you could find one that you like, and it can keep your iPhone looking super new.

Three. To keep grease and smudges away from the screen, get a few screen protectors. These bits of film stick to your screen, commonly by static, without clouding your view. You use your iPhone screen just like normal, right through the screen protector.

Four. Another option for protecting your iPhone from dirt and scratches is an Air Jacket kit. The air jacket is a fine layer of protection only one millimeter thick. It's nearly invisible, however it still protects your phone. The air jacket gives you zero protection for if you will drop your phone, but it will keep away the dirt, smudges, and scratches which ruin your iPhone's finish. The kit comes with the air jacket, a fine crystal film, and an anti-glare film for the LCD.

Five. There are also things you could do to preserve your iPhone's battery, and extend it's life. First and foremost, keep your iPhone away from heat. Dont leave it in a hot car, or any where any place else in the sun. Heat is the worst thing for your iPhone's battery, and would ruin it faster than just about anything else. Likewise, you may go through 1 charge cycle monthly to perserve the battery. To do this, charge it up to 100 percent and then let the charge drain entirely down to 0 percent. Lock your cellphone when you're not using it, and keep power-draining programs, such as gaming, to a reasonable level. Doing these things might keep your battery operating at an optimum level.

Six. Part of maintaining and protecting your iPhone is cleaning it. To clean it, begin with turning off your iPhone for safety purpose, then use the cleaning cloth that came with it. If that is not available, you could use any soft, lint-free cloth. Get it somewhat damp, but not too wet. Don't use any cleaning solvents, alcohol, household cleaners, window cleaners or abrasives. Be certain you dont get any moisture in any of the openings.

A clean, well-maintained iPhone will look just right, and make you look good. It will work better with more efficiency. And it'll be there to bring you ease, convenience, and fun entertainment for a long time to come. Have fun!!
