The most flawed mobiles on the market, do you have any of these?

When buying a mobile phone it is necessary to investigate a little what is behind it and make sure that we buy a mobile that does not give us failures at all times. Buying a mobile that gives problems after a few months of use is a headache for anyone. Two of the main characteristics that we must look for in any device are its after-sales service and its durability. In today's article, we want to show you the most flawed phones on the market. Do you want to know what phones they are about? We show you!

What mobiles are the ones that fail the most?

The Blancco company, in charge of software development and data erasure on smartphones, has been in charge of preparing a study called " State of Mobile Device Repair & Security " with the most faulty mobiles on the market. This study is based on a series of anomalies that they have found in different mobiles of all the brands that have come to them to analyze.

The company has detected that some phones of the Samsung or Xiaomi brand are giving enough failures, but we need to know how to interpret this data well and not draw conclusions lightly. Mobile phone brands use this company to test the phones that customers return or have repaired and to take care of erasing all the content of the mobile device before reselling them or taking advantage of the components of the same.

We must bear in mind that a failure in this test does not mean that these phones will easily break down, but rather that they are mobiles that have shown anomalies in some fields. For example, a failure in the study of this company may be due to the loss of coverage of the device or that the performance is not as expected for the hardware it has.

What are the most frequent breakdowns in smartphones?

In our repair service mobile of Goal-Today, we get every day a lot of phones for repair. Some of the most frequent breakdowns in smartphones that we find are:

• Charging connector problems. Here's our blog post where we show you what to do if your iPhone isn't charging properly.
• Speaker problems.
• Damage from ingress of water or moisture.
• Problems with Wi-Fi connectivity or data usage.
• Front or rear camera breakage. Is the camera of your mobile not working? In this link, you have some possible solutions.
• Problems with the headset.

Samsung, the mobile brand that has obtained the most failures in this test

At the top of the list, we find Samsung. The South Korean company had to go through a crisis in 2016 due to the explosion of some of the batteries in its Galaxy Note 7. The batteries in these devices managed to heat up for long periods of time and many of them even burned or exploded, damaging more components of the device. phone and rendering it useless.

Samsung made great efforts to avoid these failures in its new terminals and managed to improve their security by improving the device inspection system. With this new system, they included new steps to more accurately locate possible anomalies in the different devices before launching them on the market. Samsung's efforts had an effect and its failure rate fell from 53% to 34%, although these are still insufficient numbers for the Korean company.

We must also bear in mind that the companies that appear on the list sell cheap devices in many countries with adverse weather conditions, which makes it normal for the failure rate to be higher compared to companies that sell fewer phones in these countries. or sell high-end phones.
