How to Care for Your Phone Accessories and Make Them Last Longer

Your phone accessories work hard every day — charging, protecting and powering your device. But just like your phone, they need a little care to stay clean, germ-free and long-lasting. The good news? With a few simple habits, you can keep your cables, cases and gadgets in top shape. Let’s walk through some easy tips you can start today.

1. Clean Your Phone Case Weekly

Phone cases collect dirt, sweat and bacteria. Wipe them weekly with a microfiber cloth and a drop of mild soap or cleaning spray. This keeps them fresh, prevents discoloration, and protects your phone from trapped dirt.

2. Protect Your Charging Cables

Cables get damaged when they bend or twist too much. Avoid pulling from the cable head, and store them neatly. A simple cable protector can double their lifespan.

3. Keep Screen Protectors Scratch-Free

Use a soft cloth to remove fingerprints and dust. If you notice cracks or lifting edges, replace the screen protector early, it’s cheaper than replacing your screen!

4. Avoid Overheating Your Accessories

Don’t leave chargers and power banks in hot cars or under pillows. Heat damages batteries and reduces charging speed.

Once a month, check your cables, protectors and cases for wear and tear. A 5-minute check can prevent phone damage and expensive repairs.
