The upcoming Android 15 update is set to bring significant improvements to standby battery life on some devices. Google has reportedly sped up the transition into doze mode by 50% in Android 15, resulting in an increase of up to three hours in standby power on some devices.
Doze mode, a core feature of Android’s power management system since Android 6.0, is designed to save battery life by deferring background tasks to maintenance windows when the device has been idle for a while and its screen is off. With the improvements in Android 15, devices will enter doze mode 50% faster than they do in Android 14.
These changes were announced at the recent Google I/O 2024 developer conference, where the second beta of Android 15 was unveiled. The update includes headline-grabbing features like Private Space, App Pairs, improved theft detection services, and more. However, the improvements to standby battery life are a significant under-the-hood change that could greatly enhance user experience.
