The rapid drainage of battery life has become a major issue for mobile phone users worldwide, prompting many companies to search for solutions and compete in offering longer-lasting batteries. It appears that the American tech giant "Google" has finally entered the fray.
The company is set to release an update to its developed operating system, "Android 15," which aims to extend battery life on mobile phones, providing users with a feature unavailable to "iPhone" users.
A report by the British newspaper "Metro" revealed that Google recently unveiled a number of new technologies, with the most significant being the anticipated update to the operating system that is expected to extend battery life by about three hours — a sought-after feature for many users.
The company announced that the new program will be 50% faster than "Android 14" and will include an update that allows users to set their phones to "Doze" mode. This feature reduces battery usage by managing how applications behave when the device is not actively used for an extended period, ensuring that apps do not run continuously, thereby conserving battery power.
Dave Burke, Vice President of Engineering at Google’s Android division, revealed that during testing, the Google team observed an additional three hours of battery life with the latest modifications.
Burke noted that many Android devices already offer significantly longer battery life compared to other phones. While the new program does not guarantee an additional three full hours of operation, it is a strong indication that the entire system will be more efficient.
Google released "Android 14" in October of last year, so it is unlikely that the new updated "Android 15" will arrive before October of the upcoming year. However, if the same timeline is followed, it could debut in the fall of 2024, coinciding with the launch of the "Google Pixel 9" phone.
