§ In Settings, tap Accounts & sync and check what types of data are
being synced in your online accounts. When the battery is starting
to run low, temporarily disable syncing some data.
§ If you have many email accounts, consider prolonging the sync time
of some accounts.
In the Mail app, select an account, tap > Settings > Sync, Send &
Receive, and then adjust the settings under Sync schedule.
§ When you’re not traveling from one place to another, sync weather
updates of only your current location, rather than in all of your
named cities. Open the Weather app, and then tap > Edit to
remove unneeded cities.
§ Choose widgets wisely.
Some widgets constantly sync data. Consider removing the ones
that are not important from your Home screen.
§ In Play Store, tap > Settings, and then clear Auto-add widgets to
avoid automatically adding Home screen widgets whenever you've
installed new apps. Also tap Auto-update apps > Do not auto-
update apps if you're fine with updating apps from Play Store
manually.
Other tips
To squeeze in a little bit more battery power, try these tips:
§ Tone down the ringtone and media volume.

Sound and choose which ones you don't need and can disable.
