Battery life is measured by standby time and usage time.
- Standby time is the amount of time the device remains on with no activity.
- Usage time is based on activity while the device is on.
- Data usage (e.g., web browsing, apps, streaming, etc.) reduces usage time.
In order to improve battery life, you can:
- Disable or uninstall apps (e.g., live wallpapers, etc.) that are consuming too much battery or RAM or aren't being used.
- Contact the app developer if an app appears to cause excessive battery drain.
- Adjust brightness settings to lowest setting or use Automatic brightness.
- Turn off GPS when not in use.
If disabled, certain apps or services may not work properly.
- Turn off vibrate mode if not used.
- Ensure battery optimizations aren't ignored; make sure accounts (e.g., email, Facebook®, etc.) are selected and optimized as preferred.
