Google Aims At Increasing Standby Time With Android M

Android M known for bringing much-needed stability and usability improvements to the user interface is back with a new update. As Google said “going back to basics” it treats the existing flaws of the Android’s existing user interface. The android operating system is an open sourced OS and applications have deep synchronisation with the device. Major problem faced by android users is quick draining away of batteries, main reason behind this drainage is device synchronization. Another intriguing fact about battery drainage is that it discharges even when the device is in standby mode. Android M has introduced a new Doze feature which will deal with this problem.

Doze is like a battery saving mode which acts like a deeper slumber for the device. It effectively un-syncs the applications running in the background when the device is on standby. The new update aims at making the device even more user friendly. It gives the user an option to relieve the necessary apps from the no-sync list. However, the applications that require connectivity all the time will be curtailed down to the necessities.This new feature will cater to one of the longest running issues with Android. The final built might get a more polished version of the feature including other smart developments.

As per a report from Computer Base, a Nexus 5 running on Android M surpassed that running on Lollipop by a huge margin in terms of standby time. The Nexus 5 operating on Lollipop lost 4 per cent of juice after 8 hours of standby, whereas the Nexus device running on Android M lost a scanty 1.5 per cent. The 200 hrs standby time of Lollipop will be radically increased to 533 hours with the use of Android M. Android M has gone back to improving the basics, giving edge to the android operating system.
