2. A large number of installed applications can also affect battery life. Switch on the device in safe mode to understand how applications affect the performance. If you consider the changes, delete some unnecessary application and games to improve battery work;

3. Decrease the brightness of the screen. The high resolution of the brightness makes the phone very overloaded, therefore, it runs out quickly. The automatic brightness setting is a very convenient option because the phone sets the saturation to the brightness but it doesn’t save the battery;

4. If you don’t use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC, or mobile Internet, turn them off, they consume a lot of energy;
