Battery life doesn’t constitute a strong point for Windows phones. Gone are the days when your phone’s battery was able to power you for days on end.
Modern phones feature big displays and run tens of apps simultaneously, and all these elements drain battery life.
Indeed, somehow this is the price we pay for using top-notch phones. Still, a decent phone should be able to keep up with your day-to-day activities.
However, some phone models appear to have serious difficulties powering users throughout the day and could use a helping hand.
Unfortunately, the latest Windows phone models are notorious for their battery and overheating issues, and some of them have been plagued by these problems since the day Microsoft launched them.
One solution to extend your phone’s battery life is to use one of these battery-saving apps, but that, unfortunately adds another app to your phone.
If you use your Windows phone extensively, you should keep a portable charger within reach and use it when your phone’s battery reaches critically low levels. Here are a few picks for those power-hungry phones.
