If you still struggle to get the most out of your smartphone battery, here are five practical tips:

Switch off vibration mode
Vibration mode comes in very handy when you are in a meeting, but if it is not needed, switch it off. Research shows that vibration mode uses more battery power than ringtones. The sounds produced by ringtones are just very tiny vibrations in your smartphone’s speaker, but when your phone vibrates, it consumes more power.

Reduce your screen brightness
Dimming your screen will reduce your smartphone’s battery consumption. If your screen is brightly lit up every couple of minutes when you check messages or emails, it will drain your battery.

Shorten screen timeout
This is something we often do not pay attention to. Once we are done using our phone, we usually tend to set it aside without realizing that the screen remains lit for a while. Some of us also do not have the habit of ‘locking’ our phone after we are done. Keeping the timeout duration shorter will ensure that the phone does not waste power when not in use.

Close all unnecessary apps
We often open one app after another and do not bother to close them. The apps end up running in the background. This is one of the main reasons why batteries get drained so quickly. Remember to close apps that are not in use.

Disable GPS or location setting
Your smartphone usually has a GPS unit that sends and receives signals to and from satellites to determine your exact location. We use this feature to find places near us or to check travel distance. Apps use them too, so once you are done using location-based apps, close it or disable the feature – you will see a difference in the battery life.

For amoled phone type users, use amoled theme. It helps to reduce activities on pixels hehe. Plus, dont use mobile data instead stick to WiFi connection (pocket wifi or home wifi) due to the latter helps to accumulate more heat and temperature rises rapidly on your unit. Lastly, in charge your phone on offline mode (airplane/ shutdown status).

My phone battery usually last for no.more than couple of hours. No matter if I get to purchase new phone it hardly takr no more than six hours before I need to recharge it. I use to have so many apps installed in my phone and they using battery in the background. Apps are important as I require it for office use. I use to carry couple of replacement batteries to replace them from time to time.
