2. Connectivity

Well the second point where in the battery of a phone tends to drain out is all the ‘connectivity’ options on the smartphone are allowed to be on even when they aren’t in use.

A lot of us tend to switch on our Wi-Fi and GPS when we get to our office or our homes but we always forget to switch them off once we are done using them or when they are not required. Wi-Fi and GPS are another reason for the battery to drain out sooner. This is because when you move from one zone to another the phone will try to catch the new signal and when they catch new signals it uses a lot of battery to do so.

So it is advisable if you would keep a shortcut key or a widget on your home screen that would allow you to know whether the Wi-Fi or the GPS are on or off.
