Samsung Note 4 Battery Life and Battery Charger and cover.

[alofthailand]

My Samsung Note 4 burns out the battery in about 4 hours of use when filming and taking pics. Does anyone know how to improve battery life? Turn of Wifi and Data? Use Flight Mode? Disable certain Apps? Which ones? Uninstall certain apps? Which ones? I have bought a spare battery but do not know hwere to get a battery charger! I do use a power pack as well but would like a battery charger. I am also looking for a 'bumper' style cover made by a company called 'spigen' Any advice would be appreciated. I am based mainly in Pattaya but know Bangkok.

Yes and it still expires quickly

As per original post: I have an additional battery which I alternate.

Check in the battery menu and make sure you haven't got some dumb app chewing through your battery.

Update Android.
I've had problems with the older versions of android on my Note 4.
I am in 5.1.1 and the battery and overheating problems have gone away.

Try using Google Launcher, it is easier on the battery based on my my experience.
Turn the brightness of the screen a little lower as it accounts for the most battery drain too.

If everything else fails, a power bank always saves the day.
Battery cases are good but it feels like you having a brick in your pocket.

The positive of which is that you tend to notice when it's not there.
