Microsoft has launched a new update for Windows 11 that enhances the battery life of laptops when they are not connected to a charger.
This update features an adaptive energy saver mode that automatically activates or deactivates the primary energy saver depending on the workload of the laptop.
This mode reduces the brightness of the screen and slows down background processes, reverting to full power mode when performing tasks such as video editing or using resource-intensive applications.
Typically, the energy saver dims the display brightness by 30% and prevents background applications from running.
Microsoft’s goal is to make the battery saver function seamless yet effective, enabling users to concentrate on their tasks without the need to modify battery settings.
The new adaptive energy saver mode is designed to function exclusively on devices equipped with a battery and will not alter screen brightness, making it less perceptible on laptops, tablets, and handheld devices.
