Cell phone battery easy aging? The experts teach 2 moves to extend the life

Many people often replace their phones because of battery problems, but in fact there are some simple settings that can reduce the drain on your phone’s battery.

Although modern cell phones are convenient, but with a few years the battery is easy to age, is one of the reasons why many people must replace their phones frequently. The Japanese media recently found that nearly half of the users replaced their phones because of the poor state of the battery, and interviewed information experts to understand how to maintain the battery efficiency of the phone.

According to the Japanese media “Nikkan Guindai” reported that the media conducted a questionnaire survey for users who sold their iPhone and found that as many as 46% of the reasons why they wanted to sell their old phone for a new one was because “the battery condition deteriorated”. This is much higher than other factors such as “broken body or screen” (22%) and “slower or easier to crash” (17%).

The media interviewed electrical communication expert Shinji Yokogawa to learn the secret of making the battery last longer. Yokogawa pointed out that although it varies depending on the model and system, in the case of iPhones, the system is usually automatically updated to the latest version. In this way, to avoid battery consumption, it is best to go to the battery settings option and select “low power mode” to use.

Then again, according to the survey, many cell phone users will install about 16 to 20 APPs. Many APPs may be working in the background even if they are not opened, consuming power for nothing, and may cause the phone to overheat, which can be set to cancel the automatic operation of the program. About the battery status of the phone, you can also check the “SOH (State of Health)” to know. For example, iPhone can check the maximum capacity of the phone by itself, while Android users can ask the relevant stores.

Yokogawa also pointed out that some cell phones are prone to overheating, because the phone is already stuffed with a variety of electronic devices, when a long time high power output, watching movies or using the camera and other functions, may cause the phone overheating. And in recent years, cell phones are more and more emphasis on the waterproof function, so that the design of the device has become more compact, but because of the relationship between impermeable air, so that heat dissipation efficiency is getting worse.

In addition, the media statistics of the actual test, found that the highest battery capacity on the account of the phone model, is “Xiaomi Redmi 9T”. However, the phone that lasted the longest in actual operation under video playback was the Asus “Zenfone6”, which lasted a total of 22 hours. Then comes the “iphone11 and iphone12 Pro Max” with 20 hours, both of which can be used for a long time compared to other brand phones.
