the effect of magnets

Can a magnet damage phones and payment cards?

|

Due to their properties, magnets are often considered enemies of various devices. televisions, phones, cassettes – these are just a few that supposedly can be damaged as a result of contact with an altered magnetic field. are these statements true? how can one avoid the unpleasant consequences of an encounter with a magnet?

How does a magnet affect a phone?

Some claim that small metal parts in a phone's construction can be displaced by a magnet. in some cases, this might be true, but in functioning phones, it is not very likely. besides, modern technologies used in smartphone production do not allow for the movement of small parts. a magnet also does not affect the screen, battery, speakers, or other components. the exception is a really strong magnetic field, which, however, is hard to encounter in household conditions.

Does a neodymium magnet attract a phone?

Yes, a neodymium magnet can attract a phone. models like the iPhone 14, Samsung, and Xiaomi can be pulled out of the water using a search handle, such as UMP 94x40 [3xM10] GW F550 Silver Black Lina / N52 - search holder. in case of drowning a phone, for example, while kayaking, quick action is important before the device is completely flooded or sinks into the mud.
for help in such situations call us! in the situation of a drowned phone, we are able to help even on Sunday morning or late evening to recover the device as quickly as possible.

How do special magnetic cases work?

Some people invest in special phone holsters with a built-in magnet. the flaps stay in place using the magnetic field, which causes concern for many. as previously stated, magnets are not dangerous for phones. besides, the elements used in the production of the case are too weak to cause any harm, so there are no reasons to worry.

Can payment cards be kept with a magnet?

Credit or payment cards have small magnets arranged in their structure. these encode necessary information and enable transactions. when they come into contact with another magnet, this data can be displaced, and sometimes it can also disappear. therefore, demagnetizing a card can pose a serious problem and should be avoided.

in the case of phones, demagnetization should not be a cause for concern. however, it is different for payment cards, so it is advisable to avoid contact with magnets.

Common Questions

Screens, flash memory, and processors are safe. However, a strong magnet can interfere with the compass, camera stabilization (OIS), or lid close sensors in a laptop (sleep mode).
Yes, if you use the stripe. Data on the stripe is stored magnetically. The EMV chip (the gold one) is resistant to magnets, but the stripe may stop working after approaching neodymium.
Absolutely avoid! A neodymium magnet close to the chest can disrupt the work of a pacemaker or cardioverter. A distance of min. 15-30 cm should be maintained.
