Tips to Extend the Battery Life of Your Smartphone
Business Technology | June 29, 2012
We all love our smartphones, how did we live without them? They can do so much, but the one thing they can’t do is last for more then a couple days without the battery dying, if that. It’s one of the main problems smartphone users everywhere have.
The problem is that smartphones do so a variety of things, and run so many apps at once that their batteries can’t take it. There are several things you can do to make your battery last a little longer. We have outlined a few below.
Dimming that smartphone screen
You may not realize this, but keeping your screen at its full brightness setting drains the battery quickly. An easy way to stop this rapid drain is to lower the screen brightness to a level that is still comfortable for you. Your screen need not be as bright as the sun.
Screen lighting
You can also change the amount of seconds your screen stays lit after you have touched it. The longer your screen stays lit after you have stopped using it, the more your battery will drain.
Bluetooth
A Bluetooth device is a massive drain on your battery as well. As it is constantly looking for outside signals, it is constantly draining your battery. So when you are in meetings or not expecting calls, shutting it off can make your smartphone’s battery last a lot longer.
