There is a joke floating around these days on internet – "There is no much difference between Landline and Smartphone. Landline has cable connected so we have to stand near it and talk. Smartphone has always charger connected so we have to stand near it and talk". This seems like pretty true because Smartphones drain battery very quickly and we have to charge our smartphones two or three times a day.There are umpteen apps available on Google Play store and Appstore which say they will increase battery backup of your mobile. But, Without installing any app we can increase battery life of phone to a great extent by following few Tips.
1. WALLPAPER :
Most of the smartphones today have AMOLED Screens which will have bright display and consume more battery. So, It's better to keep dark colour wallpapers and more preferably "BLACK" colour because Black will consume less battery.
Another thing is Live wallpapers look great on mobiles but will consume battery a lot.So, It's better to not to use Live Wallpapers so that battery backup will be increased to a greater extent.
2. VIBRATION :
Its quite common to keep the mobile on vibration so that if we can't hear the ringtone,we will be notified of a call with vibration. But, Vibration for touch and typing on keypad drains a lot of battery. So, It's better to keep vibration off for touch and typing.
3. AIRPLANE MODE :
When we are travelling, sometimes it happens that we don't use mobile much but the battery will be drained by the time we reach the destination. The reason for it is that when Sufficient Signal is not available, our mobile will keep on searching for signal and this will drain battery a lot. Keep the mobile in AIRPLANE mode when there is No Signal and this will increase battery backup to a great extent.
4. APP UPDATES :
In this Smartphones era, we will have umpteen apps installed on mobiles and often we forget to update the apps. Try to update apps often because the new release of Apps not only include new features but also will fix bugs which include battery drain. New version might consume less battery than the old version. Same applies to OS updates too.
5. Wi-Fi AND GPS :
Most of the people use WiFi for intern in their homes and GPS for Google Maps and Cab booking services like Ola and Uber. But we often forget to switch off Wi-Fi and GPS when we are not using them. This too will drain battery. Switch off Wi-Fi and GPS when not in use.
Follow these simple tips and you can see a humongous increase in battery life of your mobile phone.
