Battery and power management
Your device has an embedded battery. You can keep track of your battery
consumption and see which applications are using the most power. You can also view
an estimate of how much time is left before your battery runs out. The estimated
battery time is based on your most recent usage pattern.
To make the battery last longer you can use one or more battery saving modes, which
include STAMINA mode, Low battery mode, Location-based Wi-Fi®, and Queue
background data mode. Each mode works in a different way and controls several
power consuming functions on your device.
To view which applications use the most battery power
1 From your Home screen, tap .
2 Find and tap Settings > Power management > Battery usage.
To view the estimated battery time
1 From your Home screen, tap .
2 Find and tap Settings > Power management.
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.
