What to do if your phone falls into water

Unfortunately, more than one of us has experienced the experience of dropping our phone into the water due to a clumsy movement or carelessness. This is a problem that's best resolved as soon as possible so that everything remains a mere anecdote.
That's why, at Energy Sistem, we've decided to create this article reviewing the most popular and effective alternatives for bringing your phone back to life . Among them, we'll cover the classic rice, the Waterrevive bag, and a few tips on what NOT to do when your smartphone gets wet.
The rice method
This option is the most famous and no less effective. Rice is like a sponge; it absorbs water and moisture incredibly (just look at when you boil rice and the flakes begin to swell like balloons and the water begins to evaporate). This trick is incredibly simple: as soon as you've rescued your phone from the water, place it in a bowl or jar of rice for 48 hours and wait for the magic to happen. Other absorbent products or materials like oatmeal would also work, but rice is something we always have on hand, which is why this solution is so popular. The only side effect of this alternative is that you'll feel anxious about not being able to use your phone for two days. But as we say here, enjoy and relax, life is the best technology. :)

The Waterrevive bag
Waterrevive is a company that sells sachets containing a blue liquid that can revive your phone . Using it is quite simple: place your phone in the bag for 7 minutes, remove it, and let it sit for 24 hours. Theoretically, after these steps, your phone should turn on and work perfectly.
Finally, we're going to give you four very important tips to avoid making the situation worse once your phone has fallen into water:

1. Remove it from the water as soon as possible . Dry it very carefully with a cloth or towel. Be careful not to let water droplets seep through any holes or cracks.


2. Don't move your phone too much . Although it may be tempting, try not to press the lock button or any keys to check if it works. The only thing that can happen if you do this is that the movement and pressure could cause water to penetrate the device.


3. Turn off your phone . If it has a removable battery, remove it to prevent a short circuit and the phone from shutting down immediately. If it doesn't, turn it off using the button.


4. In general, it is essential to remove all components or accessories from the smartphone (card, battery, case) so they can be dried individually.
