gaming battery

Hey guys, I just wanted to ask a question. Is there anyway to make your battery drain a little less while playing games? Like minion rush, plants vs zombies. Cause mine drains about 2% in 3 - 4 mins while playing games.. Are there any tips?

Keep your phone charging while you play

Yeah, turn off data, wifi, and gps to save battery.

Yup all turned off, but uliwooly, wouldn't that be bad for the battery?

There isn't a way around it, if you play games your battery will be depleted faster, this link should help you

Thank u for the link, I checked it but don't understand everything 😛 so I should charge my phone more often and don't let it drop to a too low percentage? It is true yes that the battery will get depleted faster if I play games.

But it won't affect the battery negatively if I charge and play?

It shouldn't but it will heat up your phone faster

Yup that is true and in your link there's written that you should avoid high temperatures for ur phone so I'll just charge my phone when it gets low.. Oh yeah should I avoid getting my Battery to low percentages like below 15%?

Just keep it above 5%
