Cell phones has increased in price over the last few years, especially for popular options like iPhones and Samsung Galaxy devices. It is more important than ever to take good care of your cell phone to ensure that it lasts, or you can face spending hundreds of dollars on replacement. Cell phone owners can protect their investment with a few basic tips that can ensure their devices last as long as possible.

• Don’t overcharge your battery. For most cell phones, the manufacturer recommends not overcharging the battery. This is one of the most common causes of premature battery failure and low use times. Only put your phone on the charger until the battery reaches 100%, then unplug. It also reduces the risk of fire and other issues linked to leaving your cell phone on a charger.
• Invest in cell phone protection. Don’t skip the screen protector and case when buying a new cell phone. It only takes a slip of the fingers for your cell phone to go crashing to the ground, often damaging the screen. Invest in a quality case when you purchase your phone and don’t use it without the case on.
• Know where to bring your cell phone for service. Even if you do damage your phone, you don’t necessarily need to replace it. Find your local cell phone repair shop that offers fast repairs with a quality warranty on their services. This can extend the life of your phone and usually can cost a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Just a few precautions and words of tech-wisdom can help make sure your cell phone lasts until you are ready to upgrade. Follow these tips to extend the life of your cell phone and get the most out of your investment.
