Battery and power management
Your device has an embedded battery. To get the most use from it, keep track of
the power consumed by dierent apps and features. You can also use Battery Care
to increase the battery’s lifetime. Background power saving features are activated
by default to help you further reduce battery consumption, and additional power
saving modes are available to help you reduce battery consumption when
necessary.
Power saving features lower the priority of certain non-essential device functions.
If you do not want an application to be aected, you can make it exempt in the
Power-saving exceptions menu. Phone calls and SMS are not aected.
System updates may change the power saving features available on your device.

General usage tips to improve battery performance
The following tips can help you improve battery performance:
• Lower the screen brightness level, see
Screen settings
on page 59.
• Turn o Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and location services when you don't need these
features.
• Turn o your device or use Airplane mode if you are in an area with no or low
network coverage. Otherwise, your device repeatedly scans for available networks,
and this consumes power.
• Use a Wi-Fi network instead of roaming when abroad. Roaming is scanning for
your home network and puts additional demands on your battery as your device
must transmit with a higher output power, see
Wi-Fi
on page 49.
• Change the synchronisation settings for your email, calendar and contacts, see
Synchronising with online accounts
on page 55.
• Check the applications that have a high battery consumption and consider the
battery saving tips provided on your device for these applications.
• Change the notification level for an application, see
Notifications
on page 30.
