Turn off connections

If your device is out of a network coverage area, turn off the connection so that your device doesn't 

continuously search for a network signal.
To turn off or change network connections, on the home screen, swipe down from the top of the screen. 
Tap 

 

Settings > Network Connections.

 Update your software

You'll often gain a boost in power savings by using the latest version of BlackBerry Device Software. If a 

software update is available for your device, a notification appears in BlackBerry Hub.

Use a media card

Reduce power usage by keeping less data on your device. Save data to a media card instead of your 

device storage.

Turn off the camera flash

Conserve more power by turning off the camera flash when taking pictures.
Tip: Like most electronic devices, your device battery will drain less quickly if you keep it out of the sun 

and other hot places, keep the contacts clean, and charge it regularly. Avoid leaving your device turned 

off with a low battery power level for an extended period of time.

2. Tap   Settings > Accessibility.
