Great tips, I actually prefer dark mood I usually set the timer which works great . Oh and black wallpaper saves battery. Also use your jobs free wifi saves date and battery
Really helpful video, thank you
Love watching your videos. I held off on getting a new phone, I had to retire my blackberry key 2. I picked up the s21 fe. I miss typing on a physical keyboard.
Thank you I’m glad you like my videos. Thanks for watching. Sorry you’re missing your blackberry keyboard.
Another great too don't use face unlock as a form of unlocking your device as it regularly uses the camera therefore affecting batter life use of possible the fingerprint scanner
Woooooww❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks man , great video !!
I actually understood your instructions! Great snd helpful video. Thank you
.
Question: I was prompted when I first go the phone to "would you like to automatically close apps when you go to different one?" I said yes. I was wrong. I don't want that anymore. It messes with my games. I cannot go over to Line or Discord and return to my game. It closes everything! How do I change it back?
To be honest, i feel that auto brightness doesn't really help with the battery life as it will usually brighten up the screen to 80 to 90 percent brightness when you only need 60 to 70 percent to be able to see what you're doing on your phone. And most of the time the auto brightness stay higher for a longer period which consume the battery life. So having a consistent brightness level and manually adjusting the brightness accordingly will save more battery than using auto brightness.
Exactly! Amoled screens don't even need higher brightness to be able to be seen
Auto brightness isn't a battery saving feature, but a way to keep the screen evenly lit in many scenarios, people usually mistakes that
Thanks for the information.
TechOdyssey Thank you and good job 👍👍👍🙏
Some excellent tips. Keep up the good work...
Thank you!
Got the phone upon your recommendation. Super comfortable and checks out all the boxes I need it to do! Greetings from South Texas, gj on the videos.
Excellent. Glad you enjoyed the video and it was helpful, and that you’re happy with your phone.
How do you find the battery life? I keep hearing conflicting opinions
@@5h4emp yes how was the battery
@@PrashantKumar-uy3sv Battery is amazing. I don't use a lot of battery per day but still have 2,5 days from 100% -10%. And I am using it in average point. Viber, what's app etc some apps
@@michaelscofield2444 How you do that? I have to charge it every 10 hours😬
When I click on protect battery option it moves to on, but if I go back to home screen and go back to the same setting it keeps changing back to off. Any idea?
Lovely video but you forgot the main things like location the main culprit & wifi & Bluetooth scaning should be off which keeps on scaning I hope I am right ✅️ regards from India 🇮🇳
I know this model does not have one but does having an SD card makes the phone use more battery?
i got sam gal s21 5g and since new year my battery draining down so fast 😖 any infos ??
I use most of these settings in my Galaxy flip 3 and my daily use average is 29% a Day works well
I regret getting s21 fe as it's battery os draining like no tomorrow and no not 5hrs straight I don't get how do you get that?
Thank you TechOddessy.
Do you know of a fix for the screechy highs of the Bluetooth audio?
Holy Crap!!! My Battery Life is actually lasting much longer now
Awesome. Glad I could help
So excuse me sir.. why factory and programmers set battery 85 % charging if this function is harmful for battery please ?
What a great help. I applied everything on my s21fe and it works well.
Great to hear! Glad it helped.
@@TechOdyssey thank you so much. And by the way. I just have one question. Is it normal to s21 fe to decrease its battery at 1 percent even if you are not using it within 30 mins or lower than 30, even if most of the unused apps are in deep sleep mode & the wifi & bluetooth are switched off?
Hello bro
Do you advise me to by this phone in 2023
Is it still worth it?
I hope they push an update to keep the refresh at 60 when the screen is not scrolling to improve battery life.
No
One thing I always do no matter what the phone is, I disable notifications on all apps except the ones I really need. Setting the AOD to a fixed low brightness is also good for battery life since you're only likely to use it indoors. I'm getting 7.5 hours screen on time using the 120hz refresh rate, so I'm pretty happy with this phone.
Exynos or sd
@@ayushbarnwalz exynos
Since I feel like the 888 is overkill and power hungry, do you think that keeping the CPU capped at 70% speed with dark mode would at least hit 7 hours at 60hz?
Possibly! Doesn't hurt to try.
Thank brother ....love from India🇮🇳
Underrated vido, good job
Appreciate it! Thank you.
The enhanced processing speed doesn't really bother me at all for doing normal stuff like browsing social media. It's cool to have it off actually
other tips would be to use ultra battery saver mode to limit the number of apps running I switch it on while going to bed and I even turned off the haptic feedbacks since it was not that great so it did'nt matter to me and even turned off the sound on keypress and nfc other stuff which youtube channels suggested
Good review
Will this work with Note 20 ultra?
man i get only 4 hr of SOT whats wrong with my phone and full charge will last 10hr + and yours one is showing 2day + how
Why did you skip the part re. Deep Sleep?
Sort of Unrelated topic, but it's part of Samsung ecosystem so here I go.
We know Dex is hybrid Desktop like Environment with multi windows, and move things around, and some apps get desktoppy feel.
But is it really great or do you think it's a gimmick? maybe for S or note phones it's not.
But hey, what's the real difference between using an App say Microsoft Office in Dex mode in regular Tablet mode, & Dex mode ? Are there features that appear on Dex mode for Office that's not in Regular mode? Thanks in Advance.
If you can make a video on Dex, and apps that work on dex, I really appreciate it
I'm trying to replace my laptop with Samsung Dex and Office works the same with Dex and regular Tablet Mode. It's ok but some features aren't working. I tried the office android app and the office browser version and for me the browser version works better (or more windows like). For simple word, excel and powerpoint stuff it's working good enough. Biggest problem for me is the bad file system and somehow I cant sync dropbox or onedrive so I always have to sync manually my files.
@@chroesu I think google drive (& google docs mobile suite ) is the best solution for you. You can always download files from google when you are at your primary computer . This is not problem of Samsung alone. I think if google made file handling easier, it would reflect on samsung. However, google has kind of given up on tablets, so I'm thankful to samsung for keeping up. iPad also have the same problem. They don't have full version of office.
Or you can use chrome remote desktop (& use your windows programs directly on tab)
Or use it as a second screen
Hope that helps 🙏
I have the s21 fe and the battery drains fast with out me touching it and I got it brand new what do I do ?
Return.. sending this back...
Does anyone know how to open up background apps while in the gesture mode? I like the gestures but for some reason when i swipe up from the bottom it wont bring the open background apps? If I change it back to the navigation buttons at the bottom then of course it brings that stuff up
Swipe up and hold at the top position
back cover link please
May I ask what case you have on?
Caseology vault
German youtuber charges it only every 2nd day...read a lot of tests. I read reviews of s21 fe where battery time was actually a PRO instead of Con. So...i am only in day 5. With battery saving mode i managed to get from 8 am to 12 next day. Without only to 8 pm same day. Its such a nice phone...the romantic side in me believes battery time will improve over the next weeks...
Nice!
I couldn't find the link to that video can you comment in the exact name of the channel or link to the video. Thanks
Great vedio! Now my phone go to"dark"+"normal 60HZ"+"battery saving" model ! Will see ...Thanks for sharing ur ideas!
Hey I’m thinking about getting this phone I’m wondering did those two things help your battery life a lot
@@jejunamja "60hz"+ "battery saving" model saves a lot of battery, about"dark"model, actually I tried few days and then I gave it up (I don't like it)
mines crazy adaptive brightness goes lower in a dark room and goes brighter if I turn lights on ;)
Can you do the same for the Pixel 6.
Thank you
I think this applies to more of EVERY Android device so more or less all of the videos are going to say the same things
Hey buddy, is there a way to use 120 hz in battery saver mode on S21 FE?
You need an app called galaxy max hz
@@jimmyk2001 thanka a bunch jimmy, not only I can use 120 hz in battery saver mode, now I can actually use adaptive refresh mode between 120 and 60 hz.
@@jimmyk2001 is it on playstore for free?
I don't know is this with me only or if it's with you too that whenever i'm scrolling the comment section i feel some glitches. If anyone have any idea how to overcome this kindly let me know.
8:06 how does it say 1 day and 22 hours? When I am at 100% it's only says 10 hours. And it's probably something like that. Got the 8gb 256 model. My phone doesn't last 2 days. Have to charge it up halfway true the day. Anything wrong here?
same for me. I hope it is still learning my usage patterns
mine says i have a day and 22 hours too, and yet still drains fast ash
@@nami1540 I really think that’s bullshit😭 like why does it need to drain fast to learn my usage pattern
@@tsuyuasui7297 did it improve for you man? I bought this phone just yesterday and am facing the same issues.
I just got this phone a few days ago and greatly disappointed in the battery life and screen. I live in a warm climate (Thailand) and the screen will dim if it gets too warm outside, which is basically always. 3 minutes in the sun and the brightness goes to lcd levels or worse. Terrible phone, will sell ASAP
Hey I live in Southern California And it’s pretty much warm here all the time also so I’m wondering did you keep the phone and didn’t get any better
Watching this tutorial because my S21 FE's battery drains really fast.
Almost perfect device, but the battery performance is not good.
FRRRRR
Returning. This phone is not for me.. drains fast and charges slowww...
every samsung phone has shitty battery life…even the flagship ones
@@iammaobaoxian9308 ikr. Had a s20 plus, it sucked so bad in battery endurance. Surprisingly now it lasts well 💀. I noticed this because I switches to s21 fe🤧
NO CAUSE SAMEEEE, i just got the phone for a week but the battery live is literally trash, for granted this is my first week of having the phone many people have said i’ll need to give it a week or 2. But this is ridiculous since my samsung A70 had great battery life.
What phone case is that
Caseology Vault
Hello TechO I'm one that thinks running your battery down to 15% and then topping it to 90% or 100% instead of plugging or unplugging it mid charge preserves long term battery life. Is that a myth? After seeing your recommendation about leaving the last 15% for conservation of battery wellness I may start doing that from now on. Thank You!
Charging more often between 20-80 is much better than charging less often between a wider range
What I used to do was top my phone off at 90% and not let it get any lower then 25
Now that I have a job that changed haha. Now I keep my phone charged through out the whole night and it doesn’t get lower than 30%. I end up charging my phone at the end of the day at 46% or more. Honestly batteries are going to be Batteries, so do whatever is comfortable for you my man!! I’m going to get the 21FE in a couple of day’s so can’t wait
@@KgdTeser you're going to love it good luck!
Really scared about battery life on my preordered S22, Hoping if I can use some of these tips I can get better life from the battery than my current daily driver which is the iPhone 12 Mini currently. I'm definitely using adaptive refresh. May disable the Google News on the left side of the home screen as well as if I want my personalized news I'll use Wallstreet Journal
Have you seen any improvements in terms of battery. June patch seems to have made it worse
@@smitkolbe95 just the same as before the patch for me
@@xi.Tactix try using routines to automate wifi location and data. It helped me a lot. S22s battery life is still disappointing
08w @@smitkolbe95 Do you mean automate wifi/data toggle based on where I go? does it save more battery than simply leaving both on and set it to "disable" the one not in use?
My S21FE is 6 months old ,I have done all these things and I’m only getting about 6 hours with very little use mine would never make it a whole day
bro i even did the 85% thing.
Turns out by some test that the battery capacity at100% now is around 3800 mah, after only 6 freacking months and i get 3/4 hours of display on! Disapponted af
I'm not sure if I should get the s20 Fe or the s21 Fe..... I've heard from some people that the s21 Fe battery drains a lot faster due to the overclocked Snapdragon 888 processor. Plus, I don't like how they removed the SD card slot on the s21 Fe. The s21 Fe seems like a great phone and everything I just don't think paying the extra $300 is worth it if all you get is an upgraded processor that overheats the phone, and a slightly better display. Cricket is selling the s20 Fe for $400, so I think I'm just going to go with that one. 👍( Or I could always wait for the price to go down on the s21 Fe. )
Best Buy has the S21 FE for $499 with activation right now. Keep your eyes peeled for more deals over the coming weeks. I would likely get the newer one myself but the S20 FE will be good for several years wit no concerns.
I'm in the same boat! I have the s20fe..
Great battery... but I want the smaller phone so I'm trying to convince myself the s21 is good
I don't like this phone gonna change for a gs22 plus..
@@tired2976 is it better
I have the new s21 fe since last week, and my phone has like 5 hours of battery time (even when I use the setting you said in this video) can anyone help me out?

Thanks!
Swapped out a day old Vivo X70 Pro+ for the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G.
Am in India, so we get the Exynos variant.
Battery life has been consistently between 5.5-6Hrs. with AOD turned off, and refresh rate set to 120Hz, with display set to go off after 5 minutes.
The reason I steer clear of the 60Hz standard refresh rate, is because OneUI is such a bloated mess of a user interface, and am afraid switching to 60Hz. will really sour my experience with this device, which has been great, thus far.
That being said, great commentary as always, Adam.
Excelsior!
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching and for the feedback.
What apps do you use and how long? When surfing, do you use 5G data or WiFi?
Is this worth it over this s10?
In many ways, yes. Especially if you can get a good trade in deal
@TechOdyssey awesome the s21 Fe has been getting my attention. I don't plan on trading the s10 since in my opinion was samsungs last best smart phone they ever made. Especially having the SD card and headphone jack is still important to me. The s22 is kinda out of my range but prices has been getting ridiculous.
If this phone has good battery would be the best phone tying on it as we speak
Absolutely
👍👍👍
Hiiii samsung S21 fe 5g
I'm super dissapointed with this phone. I bought it and it can barely last the whole day, sometimes even less.
Por lo menos te dice 1 d y 23hs... a mi el mio me dice 1d y 3h jajaja pero bueno hace 6 dias lo tengo.
I have most of this set up. I hate this phone so much. I miss my S20 plus. One of the best phones I ever owned.
My s20 plus sucked so bad because it had an exynos variant. After many software updates till now I didn't realise the phone lasted well. When I switched to s21 fe Holy shit the phone sucks in battery life. Everytime I'm out I have a mini panic inside me that the phones gonna die.
Same, my battery drains so fast for granted i have it for just a week so maybe that plays a role idk.
@@justgocoolla Same for my samsung a70 but atleast the battery lasted long ash i could get a solid 9 hours out of it with this at most i can get 5-6 hours and even becomes less when i’m outside since i’m using my 5g data and bluetooth…..the other day i went out the house with 59% and when i was on my way back home my phone literally died on me ( this was all in the span of 4 hours btw) with my a70 i could atleast still survive for an hour with 5% if i turned on battery saving mode.
What is the point of the phone having features if you have to turn them off so the battery wont drain? Battery life on this phone is very bad or not well optimized. I had mine for 5 weeks and it drains heavily even when its on standby. As soon as i have the chance i will switch. And i came from an iphone 11 which i thougt it didnt have good battery but this one is really really bad. Wouldn recommend buying!
Is it snapdragon or exynos?
@@acafaca85 snapdragon
did your battery get better? cause i have mine for a week now and its still trash asf
@@tsuyuasui7297 Good news, the battery did get a lot better, but it did take 2 3 months. I had a few software updates so i dont know if that helped or the phone got use to which apps i use the most and adjusted according to that.. Hope it gets better for you
I feel I can 100% say my battery on my S21FE is the worst. I charge this phone atheist 4 times a day
This thing has horrendous battery drain
5 hours screen on time is dismal
Tip number one, get a iPhone 13 Pro Max.
