Have a Galaxy phone? Samsung publishes tips on how to use it for longer
Let's be real, running out of phone battery in the middle of the day is one of the great inconveniences of modern life. Whether you're finding your way to some new brunch joint or in the middle of a heated group chat debate, your phone breaking down on you is less than convenient. But if you are using a Samsung Galaxy phone, the company has shared a few tips that can help you use the phone for a long time. Here are a few ways to stretch the life of your battery, and most don't even need a degree in electrical Dim that screen brightnessYour Samsung Galaxy's screen may be beautiful, but it's also a power-sucking beast. Turning down the brightness and minimising your screen timeout can make a big difference. Swipe from the top of your screen to pull down the brightness slider and slide it to the left. You can also make your display turn off faster when it's not in use; a 30-second timeout with Auto Brightness enabled is a good combination.2. Evict battery-draining appsStill clinging to apps you haven't opened since 2022? It's time to say goodbye. Background apps can silently drain your battery. Long-press on the app icon on your home screen and tap "Uninstall", or navigate to Settings > Apps to uninstall them in bulk. Can't uninstall it? Disable it is your next best option, particularly for recalcitrant pre-installed apps.3. Reconsider Always On displayadvertisement Samsung's Always On Display is convenient for glancing at the time or notifications, but it's also a subtle battery killer. Go to Settings > Lock screen > Always On Display to either turn it off entirely or make it show only at specific times.4. Cut the wireless chatterIf you're not using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or GPS, turn them off. Each of these features regularly scans for connections, which eats up battery. Toggle them off via the pull-down quick settings menu.5. Switch to Power Saving ModeEnable Power Saving Mode to restrict background activity, dim the screen, and take a performance hit -- all for the greater good of your battery. Go to Settings > Device Maintenance > Battery to enable it manually or set it to activate automatically.6. Update software and watch syncingOld software may be a secret battery killer. Look for updates in Settings > About phone. Also, curb apps that sync constantly, such as email or social media. Have them sync less often or only when you refresh manually.7. Handle with careAvoid letting your battery run flat. Modern lithium batteries don't appreciate being fully discharged. Try to keep your charge above 20%. And if you're putting your device away for a while, store it at around 50% charge in a cool, dry place. No, the freezer doesn't count — it'll do more harm than good!8. Watch the signal strengthLow signal? Your phone will work overtime trying to connect, draining the battery. If you're in a weak coverage area, consider switching to Aeroplane Mode when not actively using the device.

Tech companies seek higher power limit for Wi-Fi devices
New Delhi: The technology industry wants the power levels permitted for Wi-Fi and other devices to be used under the 6 GHz spectrum band to be reviewed and aligned with global standards, so that users can get the best performances and devices remain affordable. The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has come out with draft rules for use of low power and very low power wireless systems in the lower 6 GHz band, which has been delicensed, or will be allocated without auctions. Once the consultation on the draft rules is over, the final rules will be notified allowing the latest Wi-Fi routers and gaming consoles to work in India. As per experts, the current power levels proposed by DoT may limit the range and throughput of very low power devices. The DoT has proposed a maximum power spectral density (PSD) level of -5 dBm/MHz and total transmit power of 14 dBm for such devices. The industry wants it to be revised to 1 dBm/MHz for very low power indoor and outdoor devices otherwise it could have a major impact on the performance of Wi-Fi advanced applications such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) collectively, which demand high throughput and latency performance Although this increase is not beneficial to applications requiring wide channel bandwidth sizes of 80/160/320MHz, it can incrementally help with very low power applications utilising 20 MHz and 40 MHz channel sizes. As per Broadband India Forum (BIF), which counts tech majors like Meta, Google, Microsoft, Amazon as members, the permitted power levels need to be reviewed so as to permit equitable distribution of devices in indoor and outdoor environments. 'Also, it needs to be aligned with global best practices to enable use of affordably priced devices in India,' BIF President TV Ramachandran said. He also reiterated the demand to delicense another 160 MHz spectrum in the 6 GHz band so that the full economic benefits can be realised. The government has so far delicensed 500 MHz spectrum ((5925-6425 MHz) in the band. 'The complete benefits of license exemption of 6GHz spectrum band can only be realised when at least an additional 160 MHz is delicensed – bringing the total to at least 660 MHz,' Ramachandran said. Experts said the 6 GHz band can offer data speeds of up to 9.6 gigabits per second (Gbps), against 1.3 Gbps in the 5 GHz band and 600 megabit per second (Mbps) in the 2.4 GHz band. Over 84 countries, including the US, UK and South Korea, have already delicensed the 6 GHz band for Wi-Fi services. Wi-Fi services are currently offered in India through the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. These are congested and offer limited speeds and capacity for data-heavy applications such as online gaming, internet of things, assisted reality and virtual reality.
