- We did a first test of the battery life of the Pinephone with postmarketOS stable:
- But we did not invest much time in optimizing and testing the power saving options of our Pinephone.
The Pinephone has the following options in the settings:
- Power Mode:
a) balanced (we have chosen balanced)
b) power saver
- Power Saving Options
x Automatic Screen Brightness (we had turned this off)
x Dim screen (we had turned this off)
- Screen Blank (turns the screen off, we had chosen to switch the screen off after 1 minute)
- Autmatic power saver (we had turned it off)
The only optimization we did in our first test was to switch off the screen automatically after one minute. In a previous test we found out that Pi screens use a lot of battery power. We did our Pinephone battery test since we still have it and wanted to compare the Pinephone data to the Pi data.
