Battery life is probably the greatest calamity, with which users face today’s smartphones. Manufacturers are bending over backwards to find it effective solution without sacrificing the slim form of equipment, but for now brings this mediocre results. That may change with the new version of Android.
If there is still something that truly love Windows Phone’ach, the standby time. I had a few Lumii and regardless of whether we are talking about the proverbial zetafonie flagowcu if I could be sure that leaving your phone on the night with 50% battery morning will be at least 45%. In models with a larger battery charge level usually does not fall more than 2% overnight.
The same applies to the iPhones. Very good standby time saves an otherwise abysmal battery life times (does not apply to the iPhone 6 Plus, because this is really great). On the other hand, Android has always had this huge problem. I have never seen with a model that would be in this area have some outstanding performance. In a word – not connected Android leaving for the night so far was not very wise idea.
This is especially keenly felt when for almost a year and a half, I owned a Nexus 5. His time work was not sensational, but usually enough for the day, with an average load. The point is that even with a light load never enough for more. The phone lying on the desk next mAh consumed in the same way as when in use. Android 5.0 Lollipop only this state of affairs worsened, which in turn led to the fact that a Nexus got rid of.
You might not have done it if I had waited on Android 6.0 marshmallow.
One its main function, presented during the Google I / O Doze mode, or smart off background processes to extend the standby time. And according to the latest reports – Doze really works.
As reported 9to5Google, referring to the German blog Computerbase standby time in the Nexus 5 was extended three times, compared to the previous version of the operating system. The research methodology was very simple – the blogger took two copies of the Nexus 5, one working on the current version 5.1.1, the second for Android beta M, with the same set of applications and left it at 24 and then 48 hours.
The results? As seen in the table below, it is really good. Almost three times improvement standby time is something next to you can not ignore:

It is also worth noting that the tests were performed on the first beta Android marshmallow, and has since appeared in two more – so chances are that the final result will be even better than the one that we see above.
Of course, it should be noted that it is a kind of synthetic test and it is impossible to predict how translate into actual consumption of battery, because it is mostly dependent on how you use your smartphone for a specific user. However, if you actually would get three times the improvement of standby time, it was on top of my shopping list moved the smartphones that are pure Android, or very soon will get an update to Android 6.0.
It is not known since, as will cope Doze mode (if any will be implemented) smartphones with overlays of producers, especially those in which virtually impossible to identify the DNA Google’owskiej vision of a green job.
Only time will tell. But I know for sure that of all the news presented on Android Marshmallow this one is for me very important. Considering how much the system matures, along with a new iteration, then who knows, maybe even to like him.
Because so far our relationship was quite … toxic. I am looking forward so the new Nexus and the Motorola Moto X May only meet the expectations of the final version and erased the unpleasant memories after the upgrade to Android 5.0. Google does not spoil it.
