How to Solve the Fast Battery Drain Issue on Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+

Hey there! So, it seems like some folks out there are experiencing a pesky problem with their Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+: their battery is dying way too quickly. Don’t worry though, I’ve got some helpful tips to fix this issue and get your phone back to full power.

First things first, if you’re really into getting the most out of your Samsung device, check out some cool accessories like Samsung’s Galaxy S6 phone case, wireless charging pad, external portable battery pack, and the Fitbit Charge HR Wireless Activity Wristband. They’ll take your Samsung experience to a whole new level!

Now, let’s dive into the solutions:

Disable LTE, Location, and Bluetooth

Using features like location tracking, LTE internet, and Bluetooth can drain your battery super fast. Sure, these services are sometimes necessary, but when you don’t need them, try turning them off. Trust me, you’ll notice a big difference in your battery life. If you don’t want to disable Location (GPS) completely, put your smartphone into power-saving mode. It will only wake up when necessary, like when you’re using navigation. Oh, and by the way, Bluetooth can be a sneaky battery killer too!

Turn Off Wi-Fi When Not in Use

Let’s talk about Wi-Fi. Leaving it on all day can seriously suck the life out of your battery. You don’t need to be connected to every Wi-Fi network out there, right? So, when you’re not using Wi-Fi, turn it off. Especially when you’re already using a 3G/4G/LTE connection for the internet, having Wi-Fi on is just a waste. Save that precious battery power!

Reboot or Reset Your Galaxy S6 Edge+

Sometimes, a good old reboot or factory reset can do wonders for a dying battery. If your Galaxy S6 Edge+ is still draining quickly after trying the other solutions, I recommend giving it a fresh start. Follow the steps in this guide to reboot and reset your phone. It might just solve your battery woes.

Disable or Manage Background Sync

Those sneaky apps that run in the background are secretly draining your battery, even when you’re not using them. The best way to fix this is to close them when you’re not using them. Pull down the quick settings, swipe down with two fingers, and tap on “Sync” to disable it. Alternatively, go to Settings -> Accounts and disable sync for the apps you don’t really need. You’ll be amazed at how much better your battery life gets, especially when you disable Facebook background sync.

Reduce Tethering

Now, I know tethering is super convenient for connecting other devices to the internet, but it does drain your Galaxy S6 Edge+ battery pretty fast. If you’re experiencing fast battery drain, consider turning off the tethering feature or using it less frequently. Your battery will thank you for it.

Replace TouchWiz Launcher

Here’s an interesting one: did you know that TouchWiz launcher not only drains your battery, but it also takes up a lot of memory and runs in the background all the time? Instead, I recommend trying out Nova Launcher for better performance and battery management. Give it a shot and see the difference it makes.

Use Galaxy S6 Edge+ Power-Saving Mode

Last but not least, the “Power saving mode” feature on your Galaxy S6 Edge+ has some great options to help extend your battery life. You can restrict background data, limit performance by turning off GPS and backlit keys, lower the screen frame rate, and adjust the phone’s processor usage. You can choose to start this mode manually or have your phone do it automatically. It’s a real lifesaver!

So, there you have it! Follow these tips, and you’ll be able to fix that fast battery drain issue on your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ in no time. Your phone will thank you, and you’ll have more battery power to enjoy your day!
