Android Phone Battery Saving Tips

noreply@blogger.com (Jansen Vlog) — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 06:19:00 +0000

Lenovo A60 Android Smartphone

A lot of Smartphones nowadays are using an Android operating system because of its powerful features. Android offers a lot of features and applications that can easily drain your battery life. And I know for sure you will agree with me. Right? But don't worry, there are some ways to extend and maximize the life of your battery.

Here are some helpful tips that will surely save and extend your Android's battery life.

1. Turn OFF the wireless features of your phone when not needed.

To switch OFF wireless features easily, open the notification window. To do this, pull down the notification bar. From there you will see toggles for WLAN, Bluetooth, GPS, Data Connection, Airplane Mode, etc.

i. WLAN or WiFi
It is better to switch OFF your WiFi when not in used. If WiFi is ON, it will continuously search for wireless hotspots / networks even though you may not want it to.

ii. Bluetooth Connectivity.
Switch OFF your Bluetooth when not in used. Basically, it's the same with WiFi that even if you're not using it, it will continuously search for wireless / BT devices.

iii. GPS
Switch OFF GPS (Global Positioning System) if you don't need it.

iv. Data Connection
If you are not using the internet, it is better to switch OFF the data connection to save more power. Not only that, it can help you save on your data plan / prepaid cost too.

2. Enable Airplane Mode
In some areas that prohibit you from using GSM / 3G / Wireless networks, it is better to switch your phone to Airplane Mode. Using this mode also helps save your battery from draining.

3. Check your display settings

i. Reduce the brightness of your Display
One of the biggest factor why your phone's battery drains easily is because of the brightness of your display. Check your LCD Brightness settings and turn it to the lowest acceptable level. To do this, go to Settings>Display>Brightness.

Adjust LCD brightness to low

ii. Disable animation and adjust screen timeout
Disable Animation by selecting "no animation" and set your screen timeout to the shortest length possible (e.g. 30 seconds).

4. Disable Automatic Sync

The built-in Email application (not the Gmail one, which uses Push technology) can suck the battery badly, because it syncs on a too-regular basis, especially when you have lots of accounts. Each one of them is set to sync every 15 minutes. It would be better if you set it up to "sync manually", but if you want it to sync automatically, you should set it to sync less frequently.

The same thing holds true for other accounts, like Twitter, Facebook, GMail Accounts which are even less important to update all the time. Switching the Background Data off also extends your phone's battery life.

Note: You may use Power Control Widget to easily toggle WLAN, BT, GPS, Airplane Mode and Brightness Settings.

5. Switch OFF Windows Animation, Live Wallpaper

It is better to use the default Android wallpapers or any still wallpapers rather than using live wallpaper.

6. Switch OFF vibration and tones

Switch the audible touch tones, audible selection, screen lock sounds, vibration, haptic feedback OFF if not needed. Go to Settings>Audio profiles>"choose predefined profile to edit"

7. Terminate all running applications in the background when not in used
Do not leave applications running when you don't need them. Close them and return to the home screen.

Note: You may use third party applications like "Advanced Task Killer" to kill applications automatically from running in the background. Download the app via Android Market.

8. Put your phone on standby mode
When you are not using your Android phone, it is better to put it on standby mode. Simply press the Power button and the display will darken and locks the screen. Press it again and it will light up.

Lenovo A60 Android Smartphone

9. Install a power management app on your device
There are several apps in the Android Market that specialize on managing power on Android devices. Most do this by controlling the activation and deactivation of systems on the device that consume power, such as the radio, screen, data and GPS.

10. Use 2G Network

If you don't need access to high speed data or there is no 3G network on your area, it is better to use 2G mobile network only. Check your mobile network, go to Settings>Wireless & network settings>Mobile networks>Network mode and choose "GSM only".

Hope all these tips will be able to help you in saving and maximizing your Android phone's battery life. Any additional tips? Please leave a comment.

The Philips GoGear Connect 3 has a built-in Android Market for endless apps and games right at your fingertips. This MP4 device is powered by superior sound. Enjoy rich sound from its sound isolation headphones thanks to FullSound and Surround for Movies, or on its powerful integrated speaker.

FullSound Technology
Philips' innovative FullSound technology faithfully restores sonic details to compressed MP3 music, dramatically enriching and enhancing it, so you can experience CD music without any distortion. Based on an audiopost-processing algorithm, FullSound combines Philips' renowned expertise in music reproduction with the power of the latest generation Digital Signal Processor (DSP). The result is fuller bass with more depth and impact, boosted voice and instrument clarity, and rich detail. Rediscover your compressed MP3 music in true-to-life sound that will touch your soul and move your feet.

Surround for Movies
Surround for movies is an advanced audio technology that directly analyzes each sound source in a movie or video soundtrack to recreate a natural soundstage with sound elements that are individually and precisely localized. The processed sound elements are then directly delivered to each ear via in-ear headphones. Surround for movies generates a natural acoustical space based on the actual content of the soundtrack. The result puts the listener right in the middle of the action for an immersive surround experience - just as the film's sound engineer had intended.

Lenovo A60 and Samsung Galaxy Y Comparison

A lot of people comparing the Lenovo A60 to Samsung Galaxy Y. These two phones retail below 8K, and not bad for an Android phone!

Well, both phones are running an Android 2.3 Gingerbread version. Also, both have a capacitive multi-touchscreen. But, what are the differences between these two phones?

Let's compare!

Well, as seen on the comparison, Lenovo A60 is better in terms of features and specification. A60 has a larger screen with 3.5 inches and a better colour display with 262K versus Galaxy Y's 3.0 inches and a 65K colour display. Also, A60 has dual camera with 3MP + VGA front facing camera for video calling and of course for taking pictures versus Galaxy Y's 2MP single cam. Not only that, A60 is a perfect phone for those people who have 2 network SIMs because it's a dual SIM and a dual active too. You can use the first SIM as your mobile phone while the other SIM can be as your landline.

In terms of CPU speed, Samsung Galaxy Y has 830MHz compared to Lenovo A60's 650MHz as the main processor. But what's good about A60 is that it has 2 processors. The first processor handles the multimedia and the other one handles the network/radio frequencies. So it's like running on a 1GHz processor if you will combine them both.

Galaxy Y can support up to 32GB of external memory while A60 can only support up to 16GB. But actually an 8GB memory is enough to save games, music, etc. And what's good with A60 is that it has 220MB internal memory versus Galaxy Y's 164MB.

Another thing, A60 has a larger battery capacity with 1500 mAh versus 1200 mAh of Galaxy Y. So expect A60's battery will last longer than Galaxy Y's battery.

Lenovo A60 retails Php 7,990, much expensive than Samsung Galaxy Y which only retails Php 5,950. But if you will compare the functionality of both phones, A60 is a way better than the Galaxy Y. Just add 2K and you'll get a dual camera Android phone + plus the fact that it's a dual active SIM and a dual processor too!

If you're going to choose, what phone would you go for?
