The Samsung Galaxy S5 was introduced in 2014 with new and powerful features. The Galaxy S5 was said to be well improved and an upgrade of the Samsung Galaxy S4. It came with a fingerprint scanner, Samsung S Health, Ultra Power Saving Mode and a 2800mAh Li-ion battery. It cost about $649.
How Can I Make My S5 Battery Last Longer?
The Samsung S5 had a 2800mAh Li-ion battery, which was replaceable even though it had IP67 water resistance. If you enabled the Ultra Power Saving Mode, it will extend the battery life further. It will disable non-essential processes and the screen would be switched to greyscale rendering.
It was claimed by Samsung that with a 10% charge left, the phone could last for further 24 hours in standby mode if you enabled the Ultra Power Saving mode. An improvement from the previous S Galaxy phone in power efficiency came from Qualcomm’s envelope tracker, which reduced heavy power used in connectivity.
