We’ve compiled a number of tricks and tips that will improve the battery life on Samsung’s latest and greatest. Some of them are obvious, while some are a bit more sneaky.

cool thanks
I will buy s8
i want the s8+ ?? but its too expensive so my dad wont buy it for me ??
for a flagship phone nobody should be facing battery issues,
great tips I used and got 21 hours with 8 hours screen on time
I set my S7 edge to "device only" for the location, but after a while I always find it has been toggled back to "high accuracy." How can this be prevented?
thanks for turning the powerful S8 into a Samsung s3 phone haha
Good job, Plamen! Nice to see a fellow bulgarian moving up in the tech world. Keep up the good work mate! 🙂
nice ! thnx ! 😉
what about greenify
If you are going to turn off all the features of the S8, then why buy it in the first place. You can just as well buy a 200 $/€ phone which will do the same as the S8 with all its features turned off.
how do u get edge lightening when getting a call???
What's your theme
The battery life on my Samsung S8 compared with my previous S7 is a bit short. I think just because S8 have a better resolution display which just consume more power of course. Whatever the S8 is amazing device and i enjoy it too much…
you give 900 euros and not enjoying your phone -_-
I dont see the battery being a problem in the new samsung S8 ,even though i play games like Gunship battle,watch videos ,play youtube and use messenger service. At whole day phone use my battery gets as low as 15 percent in FHD+ mode with brightness and multimedia volume decreased.Damsung did an excellent job witn S8
So i bought a flagship to put everything of and to the Lowest settings? Then tel me why i need this phone?
im confuse, HD and WQHD. i know HD is better battery life than WQHD. -_-
Cool
29% battery for 14.5hs? are you kidding me, my s8+ 84% for 9h
Talking too quickly
