25 Ways To Fix Android Battery Drain [Works on Samsung, Pixel, & More!]

[@felipeferreira00]

Btw, dark mode helps saving battery if your phone has an AMOLED, or OLED (yes, i know there are many difderent names, but still), because in the black areas, the pixels turn off. However in an LCD screen for example, they don't.

[@monsieur_bulle]

Well done 👏👏

[@sv6743]

LCD is more efficient as they are not rated for high brightness as high as oled and LCD don't need to light up every individual pixel making them more efficient than OLED.Yes OLED are quite inefficient in power consumption.Proof OLED phones give better battery backup in indoor conditions if you are outdoors in direct or indirect sunlight the phone consumes significantly more battery LCD display don't suffer from this trait.

Actually there is not difference

[@felipeferreira00]

[@KevoIogy]

​@@islamp3140 The difference between OLED and LCD is that OLED has better colors and the blacks are way darker compared to a navy bluish color

Instead of removing animations, go into the developer options by tapping the build number in software settings I believe, 10 times, scroll down to animation speed and set it to 0.5, which makes all animations 2 times faster, taking up less time, making the phone feel more snappy, and best of all, you still have them, they are not simply gone.

[@TiesiogYoutubenaudotojas1]

Animations sucks

[@rayhanyallur]

But it causes more power battery 😂

[@AngryCanine]

@@rayhanyallur Except it doesn't. The less time you spend on animations the more you get what you need to get done. As little as that is, additional things is the phone spends less time on blur effects and other transitional effects, and if it is done right, it cuts the frame rate of the animations rather then simply speeding it up. 120fps is what it should be at normal speeds, and 120fps is what it should be when sped up to 0.5, meaning its rendering less frames to accomplish the same effect just sped up which we wont the difference in frame rate because it will just be the same sped up or not, and look just as smooth. There is a reason my S23 Ultra lasts a long time. Charge it every 3, sometimes 4 days if I am light with it, and that is 3-4 hours screen on time, which includes music, youtube, camera, and general browsing and social media use. I have had my S23 Ultra for 4 months now, bought it used, and it still looks and performs as if it were new.

[@kleptodathief3946]

better yet, just turn it off or set it to zero animations!

[@AngryCanine]

@@kleptodathief3946 yes, make your phone feel boring or plane or better yet, generic. Having some animations at least doesn't feel like a generic cheap phone, and setting the animations to 0.5 is snappy, quick, and best of all, still there. Using GoodLock I believe you can even change the type of animation but I am not too sure on that. But still, just turning it off is just boring, and don't understand why you would want that.

[@vortexOGgg]

My friend, Life is too short to worry about smartphone battery.😎

[@Channel-gn9hc]

@@vortexOGgg So, the answer is no or yes? If you know. Thanks

[@vortexOGgg]

Absolutely NO. If you watch this video carefully you will see that it suggests you to turn off all good features of your smartphone. In that way you will not have fun using your smartphone to its full potential. That's why I made that sarcastic remark that you need to switch off your smartphone when you are not using it to save battery. The ultimate battery saver but very unpracticle.

[@Channel-gn9hc]

@@vortexOGgg Basically, I misunderstood your comment, I thought you meant that turning the phone off and on frequently is draining the battery. But you added a period after the phrase "Switch off your phone", I didn't see that before "drains battery" you didn't add a period, and I thought your original comment was this: "turning the phone off and on frequently, drains battery".

One of the best life saving battery life features is to Switch OFF😂 ur Mobile.

[@Scott-M1]

23: I think protect battery is there to reduce charge cycles, and battery wear, by not always going from 100% to 0% all the time. Which is bad for lithium ion batteries. Personally i use protect battery, and switch it off when doing a full charge every 1-2 months. For non-removable batteries, this is a must imo.

[@javadj184]

Keeping the phone at charge after fully charged put a lot of stress on the battery, this feature is handy for people who put their phone to get charged at night while sleeping.

[@herr_L.]

Yeah. It's a bit sad that they don't know why this feature exists and how batteries work when they are making videos doing recommendations on increasing battery life..

[@davinkeee]

yup. and another thing they got wrong: a third-party charger cannor "cram" way too much energy into your phone, because the phone wouldn't accept it.

[@flo0778]

​@@javadj184 I don't think what you say is true though. I think what truely deteriorates the battery is charging too fast when at very high / low battery, which is preventend by the new PD-like protocols of USB-C (able to deliver very low power)

[@oopdigdigfig9786]

Yea, you've barely done any research for this video. 90% of the "tips" were common sense and stuff your phone already tells you to do when you press the optimise battery life button. The protect battery option isn't because other chargers "cram" power into the phone. Your device will never go over the charging wattage that it supports. What it does do, by limiting the battery charge, is prolong the battery's lifespan. Keeping a phone battery close to full or empty for a longer period of time will cause it to degrade faster than keeping it at 85% or 15% let's say. Do proper research before putting out a video where you pretend to be smart

[@iMind-Juris]

19:15 Li-Po batteries found in phones degrade faster if left for prolonged periods of time at either a high percentage or low percentage of charge. The best battery charge for long term storage is 50%, and it's best to aim to keep your phone between 80% and 20%. Most people will end up frequently charging their phones overnight, which adds a significant portion of time where the battery is being stored full of charge (being full or near full is what negatively affects Li-Po batteries' long-term durability in such situations, I'm not saying they'd be getting overcharged). This has nothing to do with what chargers/cables you're using, it's simply how these batteries decay over time. Energy being discharged from/charged into the battery also wears it down, but this setting is a good one no matter how good your charger/cable is (hardly any would damage your battery in this way as you insinuate, anyways).

As a battery saving tip, I'd usually use a battery limiter (like Chargie - there are others in the market though). It works like battery protect. But with the device, I could actually control the discharge too. Plus, I can set it to 90% or 95% charge, leave it overnight, and it wont go beyond that and it won't overheat.

A charge it will not put too much power Into your device, A modern device will draw whatever current necessary based on the charge level and the temperature of the battery. This statement saying you shouldn't use cheap charges is. However, correct, but whether you choose a Samsung approved charger or any other decent charge will make absolutely no difference to the weird level of your Battery what's the battery protector setting which limits To 85% Is to increase the overall life spine of the battery by reducing degradation. Lithium cells do not like being held at 100% or their full charge voltage for extended periods of time Most lithium batteries are rated for approximately 800-1200 Charge cycles before they lose 20% of their capacity. By limiting the full charge to 85 You are not fully cycling the battery and therefore you slow down the degradation. You see a lot of phones now. Advertising fast charging or quick charging at a rated maximum wattage. That advertised charging rate is only the peak and it will only charge at those speeds for a very short amount of time and then it reduces the charge rate as it gets closer to full charge. If you have a device rated for 45 Watts, a new buyer 100 watch charger. It's not gonna force 100 watts into the device. It does not work like that. If you buy a charger that is the correct protocol which is these days, is usually power delivery. The device will negotiate The charge rate with the charger. If it does not negotiate or it is not the same protocol, it will not quick charge, so it will only charge at 5 or 10 watts. The reason why you should not use these very cheap bottom of the barrel charges. It's because they are made to a very low quality. And some of them haven't even passed safety standards and have fake markings on them like ce marks. Please charge us can be potentially dangerous and they could damage your device and potentially cause a fire. That is why you should not use these charges.
