Windows 10 Adds Battery Saver Feature

jones_supa writes In past builds of Windows 10 Technical Preview there has been an interesting feature called Battery Saver, but for the time being it has been just a mockup. In a leaked build 9888, the code is now in place. Battery Saver, as the name implies, will help your mobile device make the most out of your battery. This feature works by limiting the background activity on your device when the mode is activated. You can turn the feature on any time but there is also a setting to have it automatically turn on when the battery capacity goes below a user-defined percentage. Considering that this build was not supposed to make its way out of Redmond and that the company is not releasing any new builds this year, this may be the best look we get until the Consumer Preview arrives.

  1. Fucking unbelievable this is an OS "feature" by vikingpower · · Score: -1, Troll

    Take the latest BlackBerry, the Passport, with Blackberry OS 10.3: the phone simply puts itself into "sleep" mode when you put it face down on a plane surface. No need to be loud about that, at Blackberry. How fucking desperate IS Microsoft ?
