The festival of Holi has arrived. Nowadays the phone has become so important that it cannot be left at home and gone out. Going out on Holi means getting wet with water and colors. The phone can be saved from getting wet in water by keeping it in a waterproof pouch or case, but still if water gets into the phone while taking photos or making videos, then there is no need to panic. By keeping some things in mind, you can save the phone from major damage if it gets wet in water. Let us know what should be done first when the phone gets wet.
Switch off the smartphone
If you feel that water has entered the phone, then turn it off immediately. By turning off the phone, the risk of short circuit will be averted. In this way the phone can be saved from major damage.
Remove the SIM card
If water has entered the phone, remove the SIM card. If you use a memory card, remove it along with the SIM card. There is a risk of these getting damaged due to water entering.
Dry the phone
To dry the phone soaked in water, keep it in a ventilated place. If needed, you can also keep it in front of a fan. Water can be dried from places like charging port etc. by shaking the phone, but do not use a dryer etc. to dry water from the internal parts. The dryer can damage the internal parts of the phone. Therefore, leave the phone in an open but safe place to dry.
Get it repaired from the service center.
If the phone is not working even after trying the above methods, then show it to the service center. Do not try to repair it by opening it at home. By doing this, you may have to bear more loss than benefit.
