In order to minimize the rate of occurrences, modern smartphones now come with chargers having short cables in order to make it impossible or difficult for people to indulge in the act of making and receiving calls while charging. You will also notice that most smartphones touch functionality decreases in sensitivity during charging as an indication that it is inappropriate to use the smartphone under that condition.
Short circuiting is another mishap that could happen if you decide to disobey this warning. Smartphones are not structured to handle usage during charging conditions and as such are liable to malfunction if subjected to such condition repeatedly and vigorously.
The internal components of smartphones are well adapted to operate on battery power and if otherwise subjected to extraneous power source could be disastrous.
All manner of usage including making and receiving calls while charging is a timed bomb that could explode imminently if precautionary measures are not taken or obeyed; this therefore means that smartphones handlers should be extra careful not to indulge in this practice capable of endangering their lives.
Several manufacturers are now beginning to put precautionary measures in place to ensure users exposure to such dangers and risks are minimized to the lowest possible interference so that cases of smartphones exploding under such scenarios are place under perpetual check.
To ensure that the efforts of manufactures yield the desired result, users as well should avoid certain habits that could put them in danger.
