FAQ

Why is my battery draining so fast?

Fast battery drain is usually caused by background apps, high screen brightness, poor WiFi/cellular signal, or excessive notifications. Check Settings → Battery to identify power-hungry apps.

How long should my battery last?

A healthy Samsung Galaxy battery should last 24-48 hours with normal use. If it drains in less than 12 hours, there may be a software or hardware issue.

Can I improve battery life without repairs?

Yes. Enable Battery Saver Mode, reduce screen brightness to 30-50%, close unused apps, disable background data for non-essential apps, and keep your software updated.

When should I replace my battery?

If battery health drops below 80% after normal use, or if the device randomly shuts down at 20-30% charge, professional battery replacement is recommended.
