The battery life got shorter.

Turn off the device. Place the device in a dry place. Let it dry completely for a considerable period of time, and then turn the device back on. If it does not turn back on, contact our service center.My device gets too hot to touch.
It is normal for the device to warm up while it is receiving a poor signal, performing an intense workload, or charging. It should cool down if you stop using the device for a certain amount of time. If the problem continues, contact the manufacturer. It may result in a burst battery or fire.How do I get the repair service?
