Sony”s newest Xperia Z runs on a 2330mAh battery. Sony claims the battery delivers 11 hours of talk time and standby time up to 550 hours.

The Xperia Z also has a new battery feature known as Battery STAMINA mode which, it is claimed, improves standby time up to four times by automatically closing power-hungry apps whenever the screen is off and starting them up again when the screen is turned on.

Battery tests conducted by GSMArena suggest that the Xperia Z delivers a talk time of over 16 hours, video playback life of five hours and 39 minutes, and web browsing of six hours and 37 minutes.

However, users can increase the battery life of Xperia Z further through several tweaks which are expected to extend the battery life of the handset. Below are a few tips to improve Xperia Z”s battery life.

8) Reduce the screen brightness and set the brightness level to 10% as maximum.

9) There are several apps, with different power-saving modes, available in the Play Store. Find such apps according to your needs.
