How to improve Galaxy S6/Edge battery life with simple tricksSamsung
Galaxy S6 has been plagued with a reduced battery life problem ever since the device was released by Samsung, and the newer Lollipop updates don't seem to address the issue.
Hence, if you are a casual S6/S6 Edge user who wants to extend the phone's battery life without rooting or installing custom ROMs, then here are a few simple tricks to stem the battery drain of your phone right away:
Try switching your home and lock screen wallpaper to a simple black screen, as this will result in reduced usage of the AMOLED display with the processor not rendering any colours or content on the screen.
Then you can download the Mini icon pack from the Google Play Store, which will once again help in cutting down on processor and display resources.
Next up you can install the Nova Launcher, which is also available for free download via Play Store.
Finally, you can install the Pixel Filter which will actually disable unwanted pixels on the screen to save battery. However, it is recommended that you keep switching between the pixel-pattern to ensure that the AMOLED display does not burn out with the same individual pixel (black) being activated all the time.
