Keep Your Phone Connection Warm During The Cold In Texas: Tips From Verizon Wireless
DALLAS, TX — With an Arctic front bearing down on North Texas promising colder temperatures during football’s biggest week, Verizon Wireless, offers the following tips to help consumers use their wireless phones when it’s cold outside:
- Keep your Verizon iphone, verizon cell phones and smartphones fully charged. Cold temperatures can run down the phone’s battery charge more quickly. Use a car charger to keep the verizon phone’s charge if you get stranded or stuck in traffic on icy or snowy roads. Think about an extra battery as backup.
- Handle your verizon phone with care. The display screen can become brittle when exposed to cold temperatures for long periods of time.
- Keep your verizon phone in a warm place; avoid leaving it in an outside pocket or backpack or in the car overnight. When outside in the cold weather, carry your verizon phone in an inside jacket pocket, keeping it close to your body for warmth.
- Remember you can’t dial or access the keyboard on a touch screen with gloves, so consider investing in a pair of finger-flip gloves.
- Download free winter apps to your verizon phone from Android Market™.
