Improving battery time using STAMINA mode

Use STAMINA mode to automatically improve battery time when the battery reaches a certain charge level. A function called Extended standby recognizes when your screen is not active and can automatically disable Wi-Fi® and cellular data. Most applications then become inactive. Once the screen becomes active again, your device starts to function normally and all disabled functions resume. You can exclude some applications and services from being paused in STAMINA mode.

STAMINA mode also has a feature that restricts hardware performance while you are using your device, to save even more power. When this feature is activated, your device can still function normally.
