What To Do If Your Smartphone Falls In Water by Akinblogdotcom: 8:16pm On Aug 19, 2021
Dropping your smartphone into a bath, pool or toilet is one of the horrible things that can happen to the delicate device, but that doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world.



The few minutes after the incident will determine whether you will still be able to use your smartphone in the future or not.

But in this article, we have few things you can do if your smartphone falls in water.

Kindly be informed that these steps are for non-water resistant smartphones.

If you are using one of the latest smartphones, there is a high chance that it’s water-resistant and then the water damage on the device won’t be intense.

You can check your phone’s manual to find out what to do.



1. Put off the Smartphone
As soon as you have noticed that your smartphone fell inside water, the first thing you should do after taking it out of the water is to put it off.

This is because when the smartphone is still power on, the electrical charge flowing through its wet parts can lead to unwanted damage.

So putting off your device will help to prevent further damage to the parts and will also improve the chances that your smartphone will be able to function properly with slight or no negative effects.

"After results from waterproof test, the device speaker stopped working, the screen got massive liquid damage. Touchscreen is completely unusable. This is clear that Xiaomi Mi 11 is not a waterproof device"
