Many people are used to watching movies on a laptop while lying in bed or sitting on it.
Yes, it is convenient. But, unfortunately, it is very dangerous. Both for the device and for its owner.
The Obvious Dangers of Placing Your Laptop on Your Bed
First, let's start with the obvious reason why a laptop should not be placed on a piece of furniture that is intended for sleeping and relaxing.
Thus, when placing a laptop on a soft surface, the ventilation holes of the device are blocked.
And this situation increases the risk of the laptop overheating.
Unfortunately, placing the laptop on your lap or stomach does not improve the situation: the grilles remain blocked.
Moreover, the situation gets worse: a person can get burns due to an overheated device.
If you think that using a special stand will protect your laptop, you are wrong. There are some hidden dangers.
The Hidden Dangers of Placing Your Laptop on Your Bed
Firstly, when the laptop is placed on a bed or a sofa, the device collects too much dust and lint. Thus, the laptop does not acquire protection from overheating even with a stand.
Secondly, a person watching a movie on a laptop late at night may suddenly fall asleep. And it is possible that the crushed device will be discovered in the morning.
All of the above facts are arguments in favor of refusing to watch movies on a laptop in bed. Put the laptop on the table.
