How to Improve the Lifespan of a Smartphone’s Battery


The smartphone is a state of the art mobile phone device that offers many advanced computing capabilities and connectivity, compared to contemporary feature phones. Feature phones and smartphones can be referred to as portable handheld computer devices that come incorporated with a mobile phone. While, feature phones run applications that are based on platforms like JAVA ME, smartphones allow users to do multiple tasks and run applications that are subject to the basic hardware of the phone. Smart phones can be said to run on (OS) operating system software, which provides a platform for software application developers. This means that a Smartphone combines the abilities of a personal digital assistant and a camera phone.

However, for all its versatility and power, the Smartphones, even the very finest of them, are cursed with extremely bad battery life. Unless someone uses their phone in moderation, (and who can claim to do that?) an individual is lucky to make it to their living quarters at the end of the day with just about enough battery life left for an extra call before the phone goes off. But with a little insight and the appropriate applications, one can increase their Smartphone’s battery life and work, plus use their phone longer than before.

Although some phones last a lot longer as compared to others based on a single charge, nearly all Smartphones go through the same critical predicament - they do a lot. Any battery of 3.7 volts that is tiny enough to fit into an individual’s phone framework stands no prospect of lasting several days under a solid workload of operating applications, sending e-mails, browsing the internet and doing anything else that is expected of the Smartphone.

It is said that there are some phones that, when fully charged, their owners are fortunate to have them last a whole business day on a single charge. But with a few tricks that the owners of those phones employ, they manage to reach home with enough charge left in their phones to make a call. Most Smartphone batteries are at present rated at approximately 5 watt-hours, implying that they can convey a steady charge of 1 watt to the communication device over a time frame of 5 hours. This means that if a person makes use of 1 watt per hour, and they take it off the charger at 6:00 am, they can look forward to their phone finishing the charge it had by midday. So the secret to increasing the battery life is to minimize the amount of power the mobile phone device makes use of per hour.

One of the best ways of reducing a person’s Smartphone energy draw out is to make less use of it. The most practical approach is to turn off the unneeded features and turning down amendable features of the phone. Turing off the phone’s radio when it is not in use, minimizing the screen’s brightness and not deactivating applications that run in the background are some of the best tricks that one can employ to lengthen their phone’s battery life.
