Energy save mode: use cases?
asked 2019-08-02 11:01:16 +0200
Does it make sense to use the energy save mode in other cases than low battery, e. g. when the phone is in standby for only awaiting calls?
What does the low energy mode do at all?

At the moment PSM does not do that much, basically display brightness is limited and background synchronization tasks (fetching emails etc) are skipped. The latter is something that could reduce power consumption in overnight scenarios such as the one described by @mSorvisto.

I use it at "sleep times" to save battery when there is not really need of smartphone function. Made time activated Situation with "sleep times" and defined ringtone volume to 0 and vibration on. Made other to activate when previous is active and screen is off. This one turns mobile data off and network mode to 2G. This way I was able to have 0% battery drain at night time with J1. But probably with 3.x that was't enough, so I added power save mode too. Now its ~1% over night. Not sure what mode does, but definetly saves energy.
