Anti-waste, here’s how to make sure that a 1 million rupee cell phone doesn’t break in a hurry

JAKARTA – Smartphones cheap prices are often underestimated. Considered fast corrupted and often slow. But, in 2022, quality entry-level smartphones Rp. 1 million is actually quite good. In fact, the features are still limited. However, compared to 2-3 years ago, this year’s 1 million rupee mobile phone is very different. It is sufficient for various daily functions.

MX Product Marketing Senior at Samsung Electronics Indonesia Ricky Bunardi said HP with Rp. 1 million this year already has a lot of modern features. For example, a beaded screen up to 6.5 inches and a refresh rate of 90Hz, a 50MP camera, up to a 5,000mAh battery. “So, the lifetime of a million cellphones may be longer,” he said.

So, here are some tips so that a million HP can last and not break down quickly. So, you don’t need to switch mobile phones too often.

1. Pay attention to how to charge
The cause of the inconvenient smartphone is the fast draining battery. So, to prevent this from happening, limit the use of your smartphone when it’s charging for essential things.

“Because, if the smartphone is constantly charged, the battery quickly loses. HP cannot perform its functions optimally,” he said.

2. Use the original charger
One way to maintain the life and quality of your HP batteries is to use an original charger. According to Ricky, the latest entry-level cellphone, the Galaxy A04 series, which starts at Rp. 1.2 million, for example, according to Ricky, comes with an original refill head in the retail packaging. Namely a 15W fast charge for the Galaxy A04s and A04 and a 7.75W charger for the Galaxy A04e.

3. Pay attention to the charging cycle

To extend battery life, pay attention to the charging cycle. It’s a good idea to charge when your device’s battery has reached 30% and it stops charging in the 80% to 85% range, so you don’t need to get to 100%.

“Some phones already have a battery protection feature that automatically limits charging to just 85 percent,” Ricky said.

So, don’t bother checking back and forth to check what percentage of your smartphone battery is full. “The way to live is to go to Settings > Device & Battery Care > Battery > More Battery Settings > Protect Battery,” she said.

4. Use your HP display with care
For those who like playing games or scrolling through social media, pay attention to using the HO screen. Don’t press your smartphone screen too hard and avoid scrolling the screen using your fingernails which can make your smartphone non-durable.

5. Clean the screen with a microfiber cloth

Clean the smartphone screen with a soft cloth such as a microfiber cloth like the one used to clean glasses. Do not use handkerchiefs or textured fabrics, as they can scratch the screen. Pour the cleaning liquid onto a microfiber cloth before wiping the screen.

6. Operating system update

Make sure you always update your operating system regularly. So that the performance of the smartphone becomes smoother, the system security is more maintained, and it can get new features and appearance. It also updates the applications you use so that they can continue to work optimally without frequent lags.
