Phone running slow? Does restarting your smartphone really make it faster?

We all depend on our handsets and smartphones, which go through a lot every day. Sometimes, apps on the mobile freeze up, the touchscreen ignores your taps, or everything just feels sluggish. When that happens, most people suggest a quick restart. But the real question remains the same: if you restart your handset repeatedly, does it really help the phone perform better? Well, the reality is that you can restart, and it could fix several glitches for a short span, but for the longer run, doing it again and again will not speed up your handset; rather, it would consume more battery.
