Smartphones have made life easy through numerous applications. However, many people find it difficult to conserve their battery power for a long time.
Here are ways your battery is always low in a short period of time.
You have bad service. Your phone tends to use a lot of power to reconnect you when you are in areas that have bad reception. While your phone is in the pocket or in your hand it constantly sending and receiving signals from the nearest tower. When in such places, it is advisable to turn on the airplane mode.
You have an old phone. A battery that is dying very fast could simply mean it is not good and its time to replace your phone.
Bluetooth always on. Having your Bluetooth and GPS on makes your battery work harder because it is an active process that requires power, when you are not using it always turns it off to save power.
Making a lot of phone calls. Calling uses a lot of power compared to texting and emailing because it uses available network capacity and also the sound element of calling also consume power.
Taking a lot of photos or videos. Taking pictures especially videos requires a lot of power to process the camera's focus function and record the images and sounds, put your phone on airplane mode to avoid the phone from connecting to other networks while on the process.
