Protect Yourself

Phones have lithium batteries which might explode when overheated. Experts believe that the best way to protect yourself to use the original charger and not to use the phone while charging. Also, it is best to avoid covers and cases that can prevent heat from escaping. Keeping a charging phone on the bed can also contribute to heat build-up.
