Many people place their phones under a pillow while charging, especially at night. This may seem harmless, but it can be dangerous.
When a phone is charging, it generates heat. Covering it with a pillow, blanket, or thick cloth prevents proper ventilation, causing the device to become hotter than normal. Excessive heat can damage the battery, reduce its lifespan, and in rare cases increase the risk of fire.
Better Charging Habits
✅ Place your phone on a hard, flat surface while charging.
✅ Use original or quality chargers.
✅ Avoid charging in direct sunlight.
✅ Unplug the charger when fully charged when possible.
Small habits can make a big difference in protecting your device and staying safe.
