OLED iPhone models can enjoy longer battery life with this setting (not Dark Mode)\u060c<\/p>\n

\n
There is an iPhone setting that Reddit user<\/a> says it will \u201csignificantly improve the battery life of all OLED iPhones.\u201d The author of the article claims that he works with LED and OLED lighting for a living. And he mentions two principles that must be taken into account:<\/div>\n
\n
    \n
  1. The eye responds logarithmically to light (so double the light emitted does not mean double the PERCEIVED brightness.<\/li>\n
  2. The more light you emit, the less efficient the emission becomes (so to double the brightness you are essentially tripling the power consumption).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This Reddit user suggests using the “Reduce White Point” option in iOS, which is like placing a darker overlay on an image. This will help extend the battery life of OLED iPhone<\/a> models because it reduces the maximum brightness setting for each pixel on the screen. And this, in turn, means that less energy is consumed to illuminate the screen.<\/p>\n

    Combining two battery-saving features could 'dramatically' extend your iPhone's battery life
    <\/h2>\n
    This is similar to why using dark mode will save battery on a phone using OLED panels. Creating the black color on an OLED screen is the result of turning off a pixel. The larger the black area of \u200b\u200bthe screen, the greater the number of disabled pixels. And because off pixels don't consume power, battery life is extended.<\/div>\n

    This is what your automation screen should look like if you configure it correctly<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    The Reddit user combines the \u201cReduce White Point\u201d setting in conjunction with enabling the \u201cLow Power Mode\u201d battery saving feature to create a custom automation that activates the Reduce White Point setting (which can be Customize further using the slider that lets you adjust the reduction in vivid color intensity) and \u201cLow Power Mode\u201d whenever the remaining battery life falls below a certain threshold.<\/div>\n

    This setting can extend your iPhone's battery life<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    In other words, it's something you shouldn't have enabled at any time. It should only be used when your battery life has reached a certain level that you are worried about whether you will be able to operate your phone when you are away and you do not plan to stop anywhere for the connect.<\/p>\n

    Set up an automation that will enable low power mode and reduce white point
    <\/h2>\n

    To enable \u201cReduce White Point,\u201d go to Settings<\/span> > Accessibility<\/span> > Display and text size<\/span>. Scroll down to Reduce White Point and turn it on. Again, you can use the slider to customize the effect of the feature on your screen.<\/p>\n

    To enable \u201cLow Power Mode\u201d, go to Settings<\/span> > Battery<\/span> and enable \u201cLow Power Mode\u201d. This will reduce some of the activities happening in the background of your phone, such as app<\/a> downloads and fetching emails, until you can fully charge your iPhone.<\/div>\n
    To set up automation, make sure you have the free Apple Shortcuts app installed on your iPhone. If you don't, install it from this link<\/a>.<\/div>\n
