Utilize airplane mode and get into vacation mode You don’t need to be on an aeroplane to take advantage of your cellphone’s airplane mode, which charges your phone faster and uses less energy. Additionally, you can switch off Bluetooth and your location when you don’t need them, which also saves battery. This way you can not only feel like you’re on vacation, but also use your phone battery for much longer – mine, for example, lasts up to 3 days without charging.

Flip switch This is also not a very new life hack, but that doesn’t make it less important or useful. Using a flip switch extension cable for all your items enables you to conveniently switch off all the unused devices at once in order to prevent energy waste. And now, lights off.
