Battery Running Fast

[DeBryne]

Hello guys

I just bought Samsung Galaxy S10 but to surprise battery is running very fast. Only 3hrs screen time

There's definitely something wrong with the battery. My advice is to return it.

Hi Debryne

If you are noticing battery draining issues with your Galaxy device, there are some steps to try before heading into your nearest service centre.

*Optimise all Apps

1.  Navigate to Settings, and then tap Battery and device care.

2. Tap Optimize now. Device care will automatically optimize your apps.

I have the same problem with my galaxy a23, I make sure I optimize my phone but still the battery runs out quickly. I bought this phone on Sunday

Hi Phakathwayo,

Thank you for reaching out to us and we apologize for the inconvenience,

As your device is new, this is expected. Your device is learning your usage pattern so that it can optimize the battery life based on your performance, this may drain the battery quicker in the first few days.

If you are concerned about your battery life, there are some things you can do to generally help save your battery:

• Turn off Wi-Fi when it is not being used

• Turn off Bluetooth when it is not being used

• Turn brightness to auto-brightness

• Decrease the amount of time before your screen goes to sleep

• Change the screen refresh rate from 120Hz to 60Hz

• Turn on power saving mode

• Close apps once you have finished with them, don't leave them running in the background

• Remove widgets and disable any live wallpapers on your screen

• Try purchasing a portable charger to carry with you

Check the usual culprits... Bluetooth / Location / Resolution settings. Mine on native 1080p will give me roughly 8 to 10hrs if i game a bit as well.. 720p almost a full 24hr cycle.

So does the 1440p resolution drain more?
