The New Year is here, and while we’re all setting resolutions for health, productivity, and self-growth, why not include your trusted tech companion—your smartphone? A little care can go a long way in ensuring your device’s longevity and performance. Here are 7 practical, expert-backed resolutions tailored for TECNO, itel, and Infinix smartphone users to keep your devices running smoothly in 2025 and beyond!
- I Will Regularly Clean My Smartphone’s Storage
Storage clutter is the silent killer of smartphone performance. Apps, photos, videos, and cached data can pile up and slow your phone down. Make it a habit to:
- Use in-built tools like TECNO’s Phone Master or itel’s Storage Optimizer to clear junk files monthly.
- Move large files, like 4K videos or high-res images, to cloud storage or an external drive.
- Uninstall unused apps that’re only hogging space.
Pro Tip: Schedule a monthly reminder to declutter your storage—your phone will thank you for it!
- I Will Avoid Overcharging My Phone
Battery life isn’t infinite, and one common mistake we all make is keeping our phones plugged in overnight. This year, resolve to:
- Charge your phone between 20% and 80% for optimal battery health.
- Invest in a smart plug or charging timer to prevent overcharging.
- Use Carlcare’s official service centers for genuine battery replacements if your phone’s battery health deteriorates.
Pro Tip: Enable the Battery Protection feature (available on many TECNO and Infinix devices) to avoid overcharging.
- I Will Protect My Smartphone From Cyber Threats
Cybersecurity threats are expected to increase in 2025. Protect your phone and data by:
- Updating your device’s software regularly for the latest security patches.
- Avoiding downloads from unofficial app stores.
- Using a strong password or biometric lock.
Pro Tip: Use inbuilt security apps like Infinix’s XManager to monitor and secure your apps and permissions.

Dust and grime can damage your smartphone’s hardware over time. This year, make it a habit to:
- Clean your phone’s exterior with a microfiber cloth weekly.

- Check for any overheating issues—they could be signs of blocked vents or deeper hardware issues.
Pro Tip: Visit Carlcare’s service centers for professional cleaning services and to resolve hardware concerns.
