Introduction
Hisense is a South African-based technology company that produces smartphones, TVs, and other home appliances. It’s become increasingly popular in the country due to its affordability and top-notch products, making it a great choice for those on a budget. If you have an old Hisense phone lying around collecting dust or you’re looking to upgrade your device, then you’ll want to know how to properly wipe it clean before selling or giving away. In this article we’ll discuss what wiping does and how you can go about doing so with your Hisense phone.
What Does Wiping Do?
Wiping is the process of erasing all data from your device’s internal storage as well as any external SD cards stored within the phone itself. This ensures that no one else can access any of your personal information such as photos, texts messages, contacts etc., once they get their hands on the device without having first unlocked it using a secure passcode or pattern lock system. By wiping your Hisense phone completely clean, not only are you protecting yourself but also anyone who may receive the device afterwards – be it through sale or gifting purposes!
How To Wipe A Hisense Phone
The good news is that wiping an Android powered Hisense smartphone isn’t too difficult at all! All you need to do is follow these steps:
1) Go into Settings > Backup & Reset > Factory Data Reset > “Reset Phone”
2) The reset will take several minutes after which everything should be wiped clean off of your device including files stored on both internal and external memory cards (if applicable). Once complete simply restart the phone by pressing down the power button long enough until rebooted back up again!
3) Finally when prompted enter in either a passcode/pattern lock security code if desired in order to ensure others cannot easily unlock/access content stored within without prior authorization firstly given by yourself beforehand!
Conclusion
And there you have it – following these simple steps should make sure any personal information contained inside of your old Hisense smartphone gets securely wiped out before selling/gifting away said hardware piece onto someone else! Don’t forget also double check whether or not factory reset was successful by going back into settings then backup & reset menu just ensuring nothing has been left behind unintentionally during process – better safe than sorry right?!
