Extending the Battery Life
Active applications, screen brightness levels,
Bluetooth
and Wi-Fi
usage, and GPS functionality can drain your battery. You can
follow the helpful tips below to conserve your battery power:
•
Reduce the screen backlight time.
•
Lower the screen brightness.
•
Turn Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth
and auto-sync off when not in use.
•
Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications
using this function will periodically query the GPS satellites
for your current location; each query drains your battery.
•
Use the Battery saver feature.
