S9/9+ High Performance vs Optimized

[Pupusik]

Ok. What is the consensus? Are you running Optimized or in High Performance Mode ? Do you shift in and out of modes depending on your planned use ?

Thanks in advance for your comments.

I run in high performance ALWAYS with no noticeable impact on battery life. For what these phones cost I like to use them to their full potential.

For those that have not used this feature, it is available from the top of bbn phone swipe down and long pressnon the Power mode Mode icon.

In your comment, "bbn" pops up randomly. That happens to me, too, and I can't seem to find any resources as go why it does. Any clue?

[Pupusik]

Thanks @GG2. I've been running Optimized and just switched over. I'll watch out for the battery usage.

I've done the test a few times and i can't notice a difference on battery on my Note 9. If there is one, hardly noticeable. Let us know.

optimized for me. I did high performance mode for a while and it didn't do much for me other then drain extra battery. optimized mode learns how you use your device and recommends Optimizations you can do to save battery that you can choose. high performance mode just let's everything run including you apps and features you rarely use which will cause extra battery drain, optimized mode you can also make some changes as to what it will allow you device to do.

Thanks @tbone. I'll switch over for a bit and see how High Performance affects my battery.

@tbone - regarding apps that I rarely use. - Are these preloaded ?
