📉 Low Screen-On Time (SOT) Fix for Samsung Devices
You're not alone! 🔋 SOT under 7 hours on a full charge is below average for a Samsung Galaxy S23 FE. Try these optimizations:
✅ Check Battery Stats: Settings > Battery & Device Care > Battery > Usage Since Last Charge → See which apps are draining the most. ✅ Limit Background Apps: Settings > Battery > Background Usage Limits → Put unused apps to sleep. ✅ Use Adaptive Battery: Settings > Battery > More Battery Settings > Adaptive Battery (turn ON). ✅ Turn Off 5G When Not Needed: Switch to 4G/LTE in Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks. ✅ Lower Refresh Rate: If using 120Hz, try 60Hz (Settings > Display > Motion Smoothness). ✅ Disable Always-On Display: If enabled, turn it off. ✅ Check for Rogue Apps: Boot into Safe Mode (Press & hold Power > Tap & hold Power Off > Select Safe Mode). If battery life improves, an app is the culprit. ✅ Use Power Saving Mode: For extra efficiency, enable it under Settings > Battery.
