In the event of excessively low temperatures, the battery life may temporarily change and this may also cause the device to shut down and normal battery life will be restored as soon as the smartphone is brought back to higher ambient temperatures. On the other hand, if temperatures are too high, the battery life could be permanently compromised.

Possible causes of overheating

Il overheating of the device may occur during charging or in various cases during use. Here are some possible causes of overheating:

If the temperature exceeds the normal operating range, the device will take precautions to protect its internal components, and if this happens you may notice the following changes:

• The screen gets dimmer;
• Charging, including wireless charging, slows down or even stops;
• You will not be able to use the camera flash;
