To improve<strong>\u00a0laptop battery l<\/strong>ife on Dell, you can choose the Best power efficiency option using the Power mode setting. Here are the steps to do that:Open Settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click on System.Click the Power &amp; battery page on the right side.Under the \u201cPower\u201d section, choose the \u201cBest power efficiency\u201d option using the \u201cPower mode\u201d setting.After you complete the steps, the system will implement policies to favor battery life rather than performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dim your screen brightness and turn off Bluetooth when not neededOne of the biggest factors that affect battery life is the screen brightness. The brighter your screen is, the more power it consumes. To save battery power, you can dim your screen brightness to a comfortable level. You can also turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it, as it can also drain your\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u00a0laptop\u00a0<\/strong><strong>\u00a0battery.<\/strong>To adjust your screen brightness and Bluetooth settings, you can use the quick actions in the Action Center. You can access the Action Center by clicking on the icon in the lower-right corner of your taskbar. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Windows key + A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the power saver mode and battery saver settings in Windows 11Windows 11 also has a power saver mode that can help you extend your<strong>\u00a0laptop battery<\/strong>\u00a0life by reducing some features and functions that are not essential. To enable power saver mode, you can follow these steps:Open Settings.Click on System.Click the Power &amp; battery page on the right side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the \u201cBattery\u201d section, turn on the toggle switch for \u201cPower saver mode\u201d.You can also customize the battery saver settings to suit your preferences. For example, you can set a battery level threshold for when power saver mode turns on automatically, or choose which apps can run in the background when power saver mode is on.To access the battery saver settings, you can follow these steps:Open Settings.Click on System.Click the Power &amp; battery page on the right side.Under the \u201cBattery\u201d section, click on \u201cBattery saver settings\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Close any unnecessary programs and limit your wireless useAnother way to improve your\u00a0<strong>laptop battery<\/strong>\u00a0life is to close any programs that you are not using or that are running in the background. These programs can consume CPU and memory resources, which in turn can affect your battery performance.To close any unnecessary programs, you can use the Task Manager. You can access the Task Manager by right-clicking on an empty space in your taskbar and selecting \u201cTask Manager\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Esc .In the Task Manager, you can see which programs are running and how much resources they are using. You can sort them by CPU, memory, disk or network usage by clicking on the corresponding column header. To close a program, you can right- click on it and select \u201cEnd task\u201d.You can also limit your wireless use to save battery power. Wireless connections such as Wi-Fi and cellular data can consume a lot of power, especially when they are weak or unstable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To limit your wireless use, you can turn off Wi-Fi or cellular data when you are not using them, or switch to a lower bandwidth mode if possible.To manage your wireless connections, you can use the quick actions in the Action Center or go to Settings > Network &amp; internet.Check your battery health status and use a compatible battery purchased from DellFinally, you can also improve your\u00a0<strong>laptop battery<\/strong>\u00a0life by checking your battery health status and using a compatible battery purchased from Dell.
