honestly when companies say using a power saving mode lasts 3 hours extra it never does but been very impressed with low power code. Put it on with 20% left and 8 hours later I still have 8% left.

because of this after what looked like struggling battery life it has helped alot

now on 13 hours usage
30 hours standby

came to work at 6pm on only 29% left and at 04.00am I still have 7% left.

anybody else use low power mode? not sure it's something i would bother using at home but at work where i can't be bothered to charge it it's very useful. That way i can charge my phone when i get into bed at 6am ish
