When I am home, I am always on wifi. I noticed that when the phone goes to sleep and I wake it back up, it is first on 4G before going back to wifi.
Digging into the setting, I notice there's a wifi during sleep setting.
Settings->Wifi->Menu->Advanced->Keep Wifi on During Sleep.
There are three choices:
1. Always
2. Only when plugged in
3. Never (increases data usage) ---- This is the one that is on by default
Anyone know what the pros and cons of each setting are? I've read always keeping it on even during sleep will reduce battery usage since it's not constantly searching for a 3G/4G signal. But conversely, I can see it causing more battery use if I am away from wifi and the phone is asleep since it will constantly be looking for wifi unless I completely turn wifi off if I am out.
What is your phone set at?
