I changed 7 settings on my Samsung phone for significantly improved battery life
"Samsung's Galaxy smartphones are some of the best Android phones available today, thanks to their responsive and feature-rich software. But most Samsung phones -- especially the flagships like the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 7, and Z Flip 7 -- come with over-the-top features that you might not use daily. If your new Galaxy phone isn't lasting an entire day on a single charge, there are ways to make the most of what you have without hindering the user experience."
"Most Samsung phones feature AMOLED displays, which can control individual pixels. So, when you use a dark theme or dark wallpaper, the part of the screen that needs to stay black won't turn on those pixels. This, in turn, reduces screen power usage and makes your battery last slightly longer. How to: Open the Settings app > Display. You'll get two cards for Light and Dark. Tap on the Dark option."
Samsung Galaxy phones deliver responsive, feature-rich Android experiences but many flagship models include power-hungry features that users may not need. Short battery life can be addressed through targeted settings that preserve user experience while improving efficiency. The recommendations avoid obvious steps like lowering screen resolution or refresh rate and instead focus on quality-of-life adjustments. Dark Mode reduces power use on AMOLED panels by turning off pixels in black areas, lowering screen power draw and extending battery life. Adaptive Brightness leverages an improved ambient light sensor to automatically set screen luminosity so the display is efficient and not brighter than necessary.
