    7 tips and tricks to charge smartphone faster

    In the smartphone industry now many smartphones have a large battery capacity of about 5000 mAh. With regular use, they can last up to 10 hours of full battery life, such as surfing, normal games, etc. Instead of a larger battery, modern smartphone companies are investing more in making fast chargers. In this guide, even if you don’t have easy charger help, we’ll show you how to charge a phone faster. These are 7 tips and tricks that have been tested and followed by users who operate perfectly with every smartphone in the world.

    To check your current charging speed, use the Ampere app. Simply install Ampere on Android or iPhone and Plug-in the charger cable and wait for a second to measure the current input. At a normal 5V/2A charger, it would be approximately less than 2000mA showing in the app.

    Tips and Tricks To Charge a Phone Faster

    1. Turn ON Flight Mode

    The first thing you should try is to turn on flight mode on your smartphone. Flight mode disables all incoming outgoing radio signals through the smartphone and significantly improves the charging speed. Alternatively, turn off other connectivities such as WiFi, Internet Data set to be off, Bluetooth, Hotspot, etc. Still, flight mode is more effective.

    2. Do not charge your phone with Laptop

    Charging your phone with a laptop could be a bad idea. When you charge your phone with an adapter, the charging speed mostly depends upon the power output of the adapter. A fast charger adapter produces from 20 to 55-watt output. Whereas, when you charge your phone using a laptop, the USB port is the current output source. And, mostly laptop’s USB ports produces 1 to 5-watt output. That’s why it would be a bad idea to charge a phone with a laptop. Instead, use a better fast charging cable and adapter.

    3. Stop Background Running Apps

    The reason why your battery percentage drops so quickly is running apps. There might be a few apps running in the background on the phone that result low in performance as well as slow charging speed. To prevent it, clear the recent apps from the menu and uninstall unused apps from your phone.

    One more tip, do not install battery saver apps or similar apps. Those are useless apps and cut your charging speed and battery life along with smartphone performance.

    4. Buy A Fast Charger

    Generally, smartphone brands provide a normal 10-watt slow charge out of the box. However, if your phone supports fast charging, you should look for a quick charger with maximum output. Quick Charger 3.0 charges the battery pretty fast from 0 to 100%.

    Purchase the fast charger from here:

    1. Mi 18W Fast Charging Adapter you can get it under 499rs.
    2. Super Flash 18W Quick Charge 3.0 –under 990rs.
    3. Stuffcool Type C Power Bank with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0

    5. Stop Charging your Phone while Gaming

    There are some hardcore gamers who like to play games all the time. Even when the smartphone is plugged-in to the charger. Doing this, you’re not only charging your phone at a very slow speed but also overheating can damager your phone or its battery. I highly recommend to not use your phone while charging, you better leave it idle.

    6. Turn On Power Saving Mode

    Batter saver or power saver mode is an inbuilt feature in Android and iPhones both. By turning on power save, you can expand your smartphone battery life as well as charge your phone faster. However, this mode turns off background running applications and background data usage in some cases.

    To turn on Power saver in Android, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Saver > Tap to Enable. Power saver mode for iPhones, go to Settings > Battery > Turn Power Mode on.

    7. Turn Off Your Phone to Charge Faster

    Lastly, turn off your smartphone and plug-in to the charger. Switching off your smartphone disables almost every functionality and disconnects every connection. Hence, this is the most effective way to charge your smartphone’s battery at peak speed.

    However, this wouldn’t be possible for users who receive important phone calls frequently

  • Google invests in Jio, plans to co-develop smartphone

    Google invests in Jio, plans to co-develop smartphone

    In the past few months, Reliance’s Jio Platforms has been on a funding spree with some major investments coming from Twitter, Qualcomm and other multinational brands. Google is joining this extensive list, which will pick a minority stake in India’s largest telco to build custom software and hardware solutions for India’s increasing smartphone appetite, particularly in the lower-end segment.

    At today’s investor conference, Reliance revealed that after the latter’s 4G-enabled feature phone had seen huge success in the country, Google and Jio are teaming up to make entry-level 4G smartphones. A huge chunk of India’s billion-plus population has so far stuck to 2 G mobile phones, and their first choice is likely to be a cheap Android phone when they decide to turn out. That’s hundreds of millions of potential customers that Google and Jio would like to be able to take in. Down the line the pair can also come out with a 5G-enabled entry-level phone when 5 G is a real thing.

    Jio also plans to support Google in creating a custom Android-based operating system that presumably isn’t as resource-intensive as the standard version of Android. While Google already has the Android Go Edition program in place to address similar needs, it doesn’t seem to fit the bill for Jio for whatever reason. Officials at the company refrained from revealing any more information about this new App or any of the phones that could be in the pipeline.

    Of the $10 billion fund Google announced last week for the Indian market, $4.5 billion will be invested for 7.7 per cent ownership in Jio Platforms. The Reliance company has raised more than $20 billion in the last few months alone, but much of it is still awaiting regulatory approval, including Google’s portion.

    Additionally, Jio had some major announcements to make, such as his readiness to launch 5 G using the solutions built locally. It even unveiled its AR-enabled Jio Glass (pictured above), which could be used for mixed reality applications and will be available next year at some point. Finally, for most streaming apps, including big names like Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube and Disney+ Hotstar, the JioTV+ app for the company’s media box has received a facelift to enable cross-app search and single sign-in. It has also added social features to live TV, such as content-related polls.
