Fast Battery Drain of the Samsung Galaxy S24
Some users, particularly those with Exynos variants, have reported faster-than-expected battery drain. To address this, I recommend you follow these steps:
- Check for power-hungry apps in Settings > Battery and device care
- Enable power saving mode
- Reduce screen brightness and refresh rate
- Turn off 5G if not needed
After you must have tried all the above options, and this issue persists, a factory reset may help resolve underlying software problems.
Screen Display Issues
Some users have given reports of grainy screens and less vivid colors have surfaced on the screen. Although Samsung have addressed some of these issues with software updates, but users that are still having similar experience can do the following:
- Adjust display settings in Settings > Display
- Enable “Vivid” color mode
- Increase contrast
If the problem then persists, contact Samsung support as it may indicate a hardware issue.
