1. open Settings
2. choose notifications
3. turn off: 90 % of notifications. (this may quite a while to get the way you want. like weeks , fine tuning your battery usage and annoying notifications)
-----------------------------------------------
all of these will save your battery. your style will be your own.

4. in Setting, Choose Battery. choose low power if u are not in constant use and don't have charger plugged in.

5. lower your brightness at night

6. turn off bluetooth if no bluetooth accessories

7. turn off cell data if u use exclusively at home.
