It has become cold in Austria. You don’t just notice this when you look outside or walk through the cold. This is also evident from the faster decreasing energy reserves in the smartphone battery. But even those who use their mobile phone intensively should not despair – as long as they know a few rules.
It’s not just a feeling: Batteries in smartphones and other electronics often operate below their ideal operating temperature in winter and don’t last as long as in mild weather. The reason is quickly explained: the era of solid-state batteries has not yet arrived and most devices – especially smartphones – contain lithium-ion batteries with liquid electrolyte. Although it doesn’t freeze immediately, it becomes more viscous when cold – and also loses performance. The phenomenon begins when the thermometer drops below ten degrees and intensifies at temperatures below zero. In the worst case, frost can even cause permanent damage. Krone+ shows how this doesn’t happen – even with in-ears or smartwatches.
