It is likely that, on some occasion, and depending on the telephone model and time of the year, you have realized that your smartphone has lost a large percentage of battery even though you have not used it, calling you a lot of attention, however, it has a rather obvious reason that we are going to see today.

In the same way, we will analyze the way in which Do not consume batteryor do it to the lesser extent of the possible, if you want to keep that autonomy of your device as long as possible, since you know that you will not use it in many hours, as it happens when we sleep.

Why the battery of a mobile that does not use is consumed

First, we will have to differentiate between a mobile phone off, and another at rest, since many people think that for not touching it, and having the screen off, no longer consumes drums, however, we will see all the moments where the wear of it occurs, to a greater or lesser extent, so that we can verify why it goes down in our case:

  • Apps and resting system: The device continues to consume battery because it has resting applications, and the system is still waiting for a call, for example, so even less due to not having the screen on, it will need energy for it.
  • Active connections: The GPS, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, can be activated, which helps, among other things, to geolocate your phone if you do not find it, or even as a network for other devices such as Airtag, so it would also be a kind of process in the background.

  • Battery deterioration: As with other batteries, such as cars, over time, this component loses its properties, so it can suffer problems to retain energy, and lose it little by little even if we do not use it.
  • Extreme temperatures: Both the cold and the heat are not good allies of the battery, although the heat is even worse, so if we put the device in the sun, this could suffer a much faster degradation than in a cool place.
  • Malicious applications: There are a type of apps with malware that could be sending data and collecting information constantly, even recording through the cameras with the screen off. This, logically, needs energy, and, therefore, a battery consumption.

The only way to keep the maximum, is completely turn off the mobile. There are cases, after several years, where it remains intact and has barely lost a small percentage, something that will not happen with it at rest, so we cannot do anything, except try plane Or deactivate the greatest possible connections, so that it lasts longer, however, it will continue to be exhausted despite being with the screen off and far from it.

And you, what do you do to try to make the battery as much as possible in these cases? Leave us a comment with your opinion.

One day I decided to buy an iPhone for trying the iOS system, and since then I have all the brand devices. An Apple fanboy, as they say. Writing about technology for more than 10 years.
