Most of the phones come with power saving mode. It acts as a power booster in case of emergency by killing all the background applications and putting a limit on performance of smartphone where not needed.

Keep your application updated

Sometimes when your apps are not updated it creates a burden on your smartphone's battery life so its necessary to keep a check and regularly update you smartphones. Easiest way of doing it is by selecting auto-update in playstore.

Use black wallpaper

Phones with amoled screen illuminate only the coloured pixels. So darker the pixels lesser the power needed to light them up.

Don't use auto brightness

It's always advisable that you set your phones brightness manually at a low level which is comfortable and may increase it when needed.It is one of the best ways to save your battery life because screen is one of the most important factors which affects the battery life.

Its take more power to vibrate than ring your phone so make sure that unless its very important for you to use that added awareness you switch it off.
