Reducing battery consumption with Power Saver

•Check the battery usage menu in the phone to see which applications use the most power. Your battery consumes more power when you use video and music streaming applications, such as YouTube™. Some applications downloaded from Google Play™ may also consume more power.

•Close and exit applications that you are not using.

•Lower the screen display brightness level.

•Turn off your phone or activate the Airplane mode setting if you are in an area with no network coverage. Otherwise, your phone repeatedly scans for available networks, and this consumes power.

•Use a Sony original handsfree device to listen to music. Handsfree devices demand less battery power than the phone's loudspeakers.

•Keep your phone in standby whenever possible. Standby time refers to the time during which the phone is connected to the network and is not being used.

•Disable any live wallpaper.
