CAUTION! Your mobile phone is endangered!

In winter not only living beings become very sensitive to cold!!

We too often forget that alike us, our appliances suffer from icy and wet weather.

Especially your mobile phones, which are often exposed to cold in winter:
A phone battery loses 50% of its power when the temperature goes down.

The problem is that the battery’s molecules partly freeze when temperature is low, which significantly reduces the standby time.
Generally, the battery regains capacity as soon as the temperature has gone up again!
The solution to this problem: dress your mobile phone for winter!

The perfect product: the customized phonesock from www.phone-socks.com
