The is the must do activity in the phone if you cares for the battery life of your phone. We have seen plenty of the mobile users, using the default value (100%) under the screen brightness section. Neither they care for their eyes, nor for the battery life. Actually, using 100% of the brightness level in the phone is just like to waste the resources. For better understandings, just adjust the screen brightness level of your phone to the 50% mark and check if you find any difference there, we bet you will not find any. On the other hand your battery will be feeling RELAX now 🙂 . In some exceptions, like standing under the full burning sun, you can set the screen brightness level to 100% as there is no other option to operate the phone under those circumstances. All other time, it has to set under 40% level, in night it has to be under 25%, for any better battery performance. In addition to all the above lines, Now a days, Modern mobiles phone are coming with a light sensor inside them, which adjust the screen brightness levels according to the available light, to the sensor. Below are the instructions about changing your screen brightness levels manually.

Most of the People, forget to turn off these related services in their phones and allow them to eat the battery life.
