    Hmm ... ... I should've thought that would have been [nearly] as obvious as the risks of in bed!

    Most smartphones now stops charging when it reaches the full status, so the risk of fire is very small. It's usually caused by cheap and fake chargers (or batteries) that are often sold in Ebay and such.

    Here are some tips: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/mo...ttery-3619623/

    I've had my Dual Sim Nokia C1 phone since 2008 it lasts approx three weeks before it needs charging, never had a problem with it. I did buy the new version Dual Sim Nokia 108 brand new three months ago for £10 and it looks the same but has a touch screen so I've put it away because I don't want to put finger marks on the screen, I suppose one day I will force myself to use it if my C1 ever lets me down but hopefully it will last another ten years or more

    I guess no one calls you then Michael. I can't believe any phone even without making calls will stay charged that long.

    The 108 isn't touch screen though

    s! Like Michael's, mine is a 'Nokia' my daughter gave me many years' ago. Don't know the model number now ... ... as I've long since lost the instruction leaflet. But even though I seldom use it, the battery seems to remain fully charged for whenever I do.

    It is touch screen I have it in front of me now, I don't know what all those little pictures mean so it's too high tech for me, its like all those appliances on my tv I dare not click on anything in case it cost me money It does a lot more things than my C1 it's G4 whatever that's suppose to mean and you can get on the internet and it has a video camera, I 'll never know how to use all that stuff, give me a theatre sound system and REL sub to set up and its a doddle for me but multitask gadgets a big no no. I always say a phone is a phone a camera is a camera and a computer is a computer

    Maritess has one of those Apple 5s things don't know why because she only knows f/b yet the other 95% of what it's capable of she knows nothing about but she charges it twice a day, what I'm saying is my little Nokia at £10 would have done what she needs to do

    If you are able to use a computer then a phone is no different, everything works in much the same way. I tell my Mum that and she is 72.

    I hope that doesn't involve exchanging bodily fluids, that's disgusting Although it may be a bit late for some

    Many many years ago i came in from school and i could here my mum shouting from upstairs, she was in a panic so off i ran up the stairs and into mum and dads bedroom.
    There was my mum trying to put out a fire that was in the mattress smouldering away, and there was my dad lying on the mattress with a fag in his mouth patting the flames, he fell asleep with this fag still alight,

    Well if me running back down the stairs to keep fetching bowls of water to throw on the smouldering mattress and seeing my dads willy is not daring enough , well it scared me for years , especially when i was only about 7 and my willy had not even shown its head out of its cloak, my dads willy was massive

    I am reading this, you should rotate your mattress every couple of months and renew it every six to eight years especially if you use it like I do
