When you charge your phone, the device and the charger generate heat. Normally, this heat dissipates into the air, keeping the phone and charger at a safe temperature. However, when a phone is placed on soft surfaces like a bed, couch, or pillow, the heat has nowhere to escape. This can cause:
Overheating: The trapped heat can cause your phone to overheat, potentially leading to internal damage.
Battery Malfunction: Overheating may damage the battery, increasing the risk of a chemical reaction.
Fire Hazard: In extreme cases, overheating can ignite the phone or the surrounding materials, leading to a fire.
Real-Life Incidents
There have been numerous cases of fires caused by phones left charging on beds. These incidents often happen overnight, when the user is asleep and unaware of the danger. In some instances, the fires have caused significant property damage and even injuries.
