Improving the Battery Life of Your Laptop
Hello there,
I'm reaching out because I've been experiencing issues with the battery life of my MSI Delta 15 laptop, which seems to have significantly reduced after a year and a half of use. Despite being informed by the MSI center that the battery is in good health, I'm only getting about 3 hours of usage now, which doesn't align with my expectations.
I'm eager to understand the definitive answer regarding the expected battery life of my MSI Delta 15. If the original battery is deemed to be in good condition, why am I only getting 3 hours instead of the expected 6 to 7 hours?
Any advice or assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Wishing you a wonderful year ahead and a fantastic 2024!
Warm regards,
1. Use Power-Saving Modes: Most operating systems have power-saving modes that can help extend battery life. On Windows, you can select a "Battery saver" mode, while macOS provides an "Energy Saver" option.
2. Adjust Brightness: Lowering the screen brightness can significantly reduce power consumption. Consider using adaptive brightness settings if available.3.Manage Background Processes
Close Unnecessary Applications: Running multiple applications can drain your battery. Close any apps you’re not using.
- You can create a custom power plan where you can set the display and sleep timing, as well as manage processor power.
- Over time, batteries lose their ability to hold a charge. Even if the battery health is reported as good, its capacity may have diminished, especially if you frequently charged it to 100% or let it drop to very low levels.
