iPhone with the screen down

It is quite logical that many people put their iPhone on the table with the screen facing up. Usually the prevention of scratches is the reason behind it. Especially when a consumer does not use a case. However, it is advisable to place your iPhone the other way around on the table.

You may not immediately expect it, but turning your iPhone over can have a positive effect on your battery. As soon as the screen is up, you will see that it lights up with every notification.
