Is your smartphone running out of power fast?

SHARE WITH FRIENDS:

As the battery capacity increases, the energy efficiency of smartphones is improving. But so far, battery autonomy time remains a problematic situation for most users.
That’s the nature of modern technology, but that doesn’t mean the gadget needs to be supported multiple times a day. If your smartphone is running out of power faster than usual, try to identify the factors that are causing it and find a solution.
Below we talk about the factors that consume the most battery power. We also provide recommendations for troubleshooting common problems. Oh, let’s read these tips before the screen goes off!
Causes of rapid power outages
• Screen
• Poor network quality
• Apps and background mode
• Other battery drain issues
• Two more important recommendations

In modern smartphones, the screen is the most power consuming factor. The panels are getting brighter and more colorful, and the screen is getting clearer and clearer. These factors cause a lot of power consumption, despite improving the overall practice of the user.
How to check battery consumption?
Open the settings of your smartphone. Go to "Battery settings". Click the 3-dot menu button in the upper right corner. Click on "Show full device usage". By checking the battery consumption, you will know that the screen is the factor that takes the most battery power.
The smartphone's display is improving faster than its battery. Until the situation improves, you will have to save energy.
How can this be corrected?
There are several ways to reduce power consumption. These are:
- Low screen brightness: lowering the screen brightness helps save battery power;
- Use flexible brightness: this will provide you with the brightness you need. Plus, you can save phone power when brightness isn’t needed;
- Reduce screen refresh rate: some devices have a high refresh rate and you can adjust it through the settings menu;
- Reduce screen auto-lock time: this method will prevent the screen from wasting power;
- Avoid live wallpapers: such animated backgrounds may look beautiful, but this type of wallpaper is constantly running and consumes a lot of battery power. If your smartphone runs on an AMOLED display, using a black background is a very effective method because the AMOLED display does not activate such pixels.

Poor network quality
In places where the network quality is not good, the battery power of the smartphone is quickly consumed. To connect to the network, the smartphone is constantly connected to nearby wave-transmitting antennas.
If the phone can’t connect to the network, the gadget will start working extra to connect to the network and get you back on the network. If you live on the outskirts of the city or in a place where the network quality is not good, the power of your phone will be consumed faster than usual.
Is there a solution?
- Switching operators: The stability of communication operators varies depending on the region, city, neighborhood. Find the best communication operator in your area (UzMobile, Beeline, Mobiuz, Ucell or Perfectum) and use this communication operator.
- Flight mode: the phone antenna stops working when flight mode is activated. Then your phone will not try too hard to stay online. This method is more effective if you are in a place where communication quality is poor.

Applications and background mode
If your phone is running out of power quickly, check the apps on your device. Some streaming apps like YouTube, Netflix consume more smartphone power than others. If you want to save phone power, you should refrain from playing games, especially high-graphics games.
Also, apps like Facebook, Instagram, various messengers consume phone power even when they are not active.
Such communicative services always try to stay in touch. That is, these apps constantly run in the background, use data, determine your location, and send you notifications.
How can this be corrected?
- Install fewer apps on your phone: many applications run continuously in the background and consume power. To prevent this, go to "Application Management" and delete the programs you don't need.
- Stop running background apps: if an app is consuming a lot of phone power, you can limit its activity. for this Settings menu> App & notifications> App selection> Battery> Background restriction> Restriction follow the procedure. Thus, when the application is not in use, some of its features and functions will not work.
- Close applications: Devices running the Android system specialize in performing many tasks. Therefore, the method of closing applications can do more harm than good. But it is useful to use this method from time to time.
Also, sometimes there are problems in the app system and unnecessarily wasting phone power. If this happens, closing the app or reactivating it is a good way. for this Settings menu> App and notifications> App selection> Force Stop follow the procedure.
- Pay attention to the time of use: we often want the phone to have a more powerful battery, but we constantly play games, watch videos, or spend so much time on social media that we don’t even notice that the phone is running out of power. Therefore, pay attention to how long you have been using the apps.

Other problems
- GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth: how often do you use these wireless devices? Although low, they consume phone power when left on.
If you don’t use them, it’s best to turn them off. You will then notice that the battery life is extended.
- Camera: video and photography require a lot of energy. So use the camera as little as possible so that the phone power lasts for a long time.
- Low temperature: low temperatures affect battery life. Roger Gurney, head of Arctic Tech Solutions, told USA Today that lithium-ion batteries will stop charging the battery in extremely cold climates.
He also mentioned that the effects of cold temperatures can permanently damage the battery. A good solution is to carry the phone close to you so that your body temperature keeps it in a normal position.

Two more important recommendations
Software update: software updates often serve to extend the battery life, so it is always recommended to update the software on your phone to the latest version.
Buy a good charger: A good charger allows the battery to run longer and more efficiently.
