How to Maximize Your Android Phone's Battery Life
Are you tired of your Android phone running out of juice too quickly? We understand the frustration of needing to charge your device constantly. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to conserve Android battery life and keep your phone running longer.
Android vs. iPhone: Battery Life Showdown
When considering a new smartphone, battery longevity and storage are key. We rely on our phones for a myriad of activities—from communication to banking to entertainment. But how does Android's battery stack up against iPhone's?
Smartphone battery lifespan isn't measured in years but in charge cycles, which indicate how many times a battery can be fully charged before it degrades. Typically, larger capacity batteries that require less frequent charges endure longer.
iPhones usually feature batteries around 2500 mAh, housed within sleek designs that limit battery size, leading to a trade-off in capacity. A fully charged 2500mAh iPhone battery can last about a day. Conversely, Android phones often come equipped with larger batteries, for instance, the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra's 5000 mAh battery, therefore not needing charges quite so often.
While iPhones may use their battery more efficiently during active use, leading to large Android batteries sometimes underperforming expectations, there are ways you can preserve your Android’s battery life. Tools like AccuBattery can help you monitor its health.
Ultimate Android Battery Saving Tips
Embrace Power Saving Modes
Switch on your phone's power saving mode to limit background syncing, networking, location services, and screen refresh rates. For more stringent conservation, restrict active apps and home screen usage.
Tweak Screen Settings
Disable 'Always On Display' to reduce screen brightness and CPU consumption. For a quick fix, engage airplane mode via your home screen's pull-down menu when not actively using your phone.
Disable Active Listening
Turn off voice assistants like Google Assistant or Samsung's Bixby to stop your phone from perpetually listening—saving you battery life.
Manage App Energy Usage
Apps running in the background continue to draw power. Access your battery settings and activate 'Put unused apps to sleep' to restrict background app consumption.
Optimizing Android 11 Phones
Android 11 users can explore automation options for adaptive power saving, automatically toggling power saver based on phone usage.
