Intex Aqua Fish battery life

The battery is just about okay in the Aqua Fish. I have never used the Jolla 1 but have read a lot about its pretty amazing battery life and as for the Aqua Fish, I get barely enough for a day with moderate usage. The AIDA64 shows all 4 cores at 800MHz and about 1% - 8% processor usage when doing nothing.

I was thinking of under clocking the processor to save some battery life. Is there any way to under clock the processors in Aqua Fish to save battery life? Also any other battery saving tips apart from the obvious like switching off GPS / wifi when not in use and not using android apps.

EDIT I've had the phone for about 2 weeks now and I've found that the battery drains faster than expected. Without even using the android support, the battery life is not good. I've had the battery drain from 100% to 60% in about 7.5 hours with just one app, sailorgram, being used and android support stopped.

Everynight the phone loses about 7-9% charge when it's kept on Airplane mode for about 8 hours. The standby time is pathetic as well. I hope there is a way to increase the battery life?

EDIT - 25-07-2017 Its been a year since this post and I haven't seen any improvement in the battery life with any update. Is there any known way to improve battery life for Aqua Fish?

EDIT - 09-10-2018 I have been noticing that when there is no sim in the phone and only wifi is used, alien dalvik turned on and screen off I get about 25mAh drain. With 2 sims but both disabled and everything else same, the lowest drain I have seen is about 100mAh. Is there any reason for that?
