Smartphone: Just one habit of yours is ruining your mobile screen! Everyone makes this mistake...

Smartphones have become an essential part of our lives today. They've made many of our tasks easier. Over time, these devices have become much more advanced and offer a smoother experience than ever before. Some phones now come with displays that support refresh rates of up to 120Hz or higher, making the phone feel much smoother. But that's just about the inside of the phone.

Now, if we talk about the outside, i.e., the screen, we unlock our phones approximately 100 to 150 times a day and touch the screen more than 2,500 times. Because of this, the phone's screen doesn't remain as smooth and bright as it was initially.

Actually, smartphone screens have a special coating that deteriorates over time. This is called an oleophobic coating. Many people still don't know about it. Today, we'll talk about this and understand how one of your bad habits is damaging this oleophobic coating.

What is an oleophobic coating?
Simply put, an oleophobic coating is a very thin, transparent layer that prevents oil, fingerprints, and dust from accumulating on the phone screen. This is why the screen feels so smooth when you touch it and doesn't smudge easily. Without this coating, the screen becomes dirty quickly, making it difficult to keep clean.

Frequent cleaning is harmful.
These days, many people have developed a habit of repeatedly cleaning their phone screens, sometimes with a shirt, sometimes with a cloth or tissue. However, this habit is unhealthy. Excessive scrubbing or cleaning the phone screen with chemicals can quickly damage the coating, leaving it permanently dull and sticky, significantly ruining your smooth user experience. However, you can avoid this problem by using a tempered glass screen protector.
