Hey everyone,
I converted back to the Android world after a few years away. My last Android experience was with the Acer Liquid E. I'm now a One S user, but am not so sure I'm using it to it's full potential, and have mixed volumes of advice so far. So, I'm putting a few questions out to you, the experts. Thanks in advance for your help and advice.
1, I get about 10-12 hours out of a full charge, which includes a bit of gaming, but mostly email and texting. Is that normal? It seems kinda pathetic, in my humble opinion...
2, should I use a Task Killer app? I've heard yes and no, so I don't know...
3, Is Juice Defender a real battery saver? It has told me that it's increasing my battery life by 1.35 times, but that's its opinion, lol.
4, Is the "Power Saver" that is built into 4.1.1 better than a 3rd party app, or is it effective at all?
5, Do widgets (weather, news feeds) drain the battery faster? I'd think that they're running in the background so they would.
I'm sure that most of the above are "dumb" questions, but I need your expert advice to make sure I'm using my phone, which I think is great, to some of its full potential.
Thanks everyone.
