Handheld Battery Optimization Guide

Improve battery life without turning your expensive handheld into a slideshow.

Lowering TDP is usually the most effective way to increase battery life.

Limiting the frame rate to 30, 40 or 60 FPS can reduce power consumption and improve frame pacing.

Wireless features, RGB lighting and background downloads can also increase battery drain.
