One of the concerns we often have about breaking our mobile phone screen is that we will have to endure it to get it fixed and leave it like that for a few days. Fortunately, this is no longer a problem as there are technicians who will provide you with the repair within a few hours. However, we should be afraid of what can happen if we continue using it after the screen is broken or cracked.
A fall, a blow or a situation that causes your screen to break can have more risks than you think, especially if you do not stop using your mobile phone now, so we will tell you why you should not do it and how you should act in this case to minimize the risks.
Reasons why you shouldn't use your phone with a broken screen
One of the main reasons you can’t use your phone with a broken or cracked screen is because something else might have broken, which can lead to not only more screen problems but also phone problems. The fact that it can break more can affect you, with the risk of crystal pieces sticking to your fingers or skin. Don’t hold it close to your face to take calls. Since it’s also small, if you cut yourself on it, it can be difficult to remove.
Also, if you don’t hurry up to save everything, you may end up losing your data and what you have on your phone. On the other hand, if something gets wet, it may be irreparably damaged, which means that it won’t be possible to fix it even by changing the screen. If it is exposed to direct sunlight, it runs the risk of overheating and damaging the battery, or in the worst case, exploding, although the latter is usually not the most common.
The more you use it, the more likely it is that you will not be able to use certain parts of the screen, or the touch screen will be damaged, or some internal components will be damaged, or it will not work properly. Even if it has irreparable damage. On the other hand, if you fix it right away, you won’t run any of these risks.
Although you may not realize it at the time, using your cell phone with a broken screen makes the contents look worse and strains your eyesight. Thus, you will end up with tired or weak eyesight as a result of using your cell phone for a long time in these conditions. We already assume that you will not be using it to watch videos or movies.
- With care, you can use it for a few days.
If you are careful, to prevent further breakage, you can keep it for a few days without any problems. Although you should take extreme precautions and the damage is so small that it will not affect your eyesight or user experience much. Although there is always some risk, it is not recommended to do so. Even if it seems to you that it has not affected the phone at all or is a small crack.
You can use it to save data that you need to keep so that it does not get lost, if you have not already done so, or if you have no choice because you cannot do without your mobile phone for the next few hours or days. However, it may be better to ask for a replacement or have someone lend you a phone rather than risk further damage or harm to you. In any case, there is someone who will fix it for you in a few hours and you can spend this time without your phone.
