Optimizing your phone’s battery life
When you’re on the go, it’s not always easy to charge your phone’s battery as often as you’d 
like. Follow these tips to extend the time between charges: 
Turn off wireless functions such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and data connection when you’re not 
using them. See the Internet and Bluetooth chapters for details.
Do not use GPS satellites to determine your GPS location. See the Maps & Location 
chapter for details. 
Lower the screen brightness. See “Adjusting the screen brightness manually” in this 
chapter for details.
Switch off screen animations. See “Switching animation effects on or off” in this chapter 
for details
Cut down on activities such as Internet browsing. Wireless data consumes a lot of power.
Avoid making very long phone calls or using the camera for extended periods of time.
Consider carrying a spare battery for times when you can’t charge your battery for an 
extended period.
Batteries gradually lose storage capacity over time. Consider replacing your battery after 
eight months to a year, or if you notice that the battery life is decreasing.
Checking the power usage of applications
