Phone low or battery generally dies quickly? Enable power save mode for more battery life.
Reduce the battery drain quickly
The battery of a mobile phone sometimes drains faster than is convenient. And charging is not always possible. Switch on the saving mode, or also energy saving mode, to last longer with the battery. Background tasks on the phone are then performed less often or not at all. Such as regularly retrieving mail or refreshing apps.
