This review focuses on the electron-phonon interactions in lead halide perovskite semiconductors, which dominate their optical and electronic properties by forming polarons. We describe the uniqueness of perovskite semiconductors in terms of long-range and short-range electron-phonon interactions. The formation of polarons profoundly affects the carrier effective mass, mobility, and various optoelectronic properties. These topics are explained with recent experimental data.
