Sony mobiles have not traditionally been characterized by very exclusive features in their personalization layer, which has normally been quite similar to Android Stock except in some key aspects. But they have some cool features with which to customize our experience. This is the case of the intelligent backlight of the screen of an Xperia .
The operation of the screen is not only important for a good viewing experience, but can also influence the power consumption of the phone. Today we review an interesting function of these phones, which offers us a more intelligent operation of the panel.
What is smart backlight for?
This is the function that will not only make the use of our mobile and its screen more comfortable, but it will also save battery power, since the screen will turn on only when necessary. Something that the phone is going to be able to control intelligently. What this ” smart backlight ” function does is it controls the screen illumination automatically based on how we are using the phone. With this mode the phone knows if we have it in our hands or not.
Therefore, when it detects that we are holding it, it also worries about whether we are looking at the screen , so that it does not turn off. In other words, this function what it does is keep the screen on if it is detecting that there is a use of the terminal while we hold it. The moment the Xperia detects that we have left the phone and that we are no longer looking at the screen, it is when it turns off completely. Therefore, with this use of the screen adapted to the real situation and the fact whether we are using it or not, it is evident that there is a certain saving of the screen. When we leave the phone it will return to the sleep state that we have chosen in the settings.
How active?
Well, it is quite easy to access this setting of Sony Xperia phones, for this you just have to do the following:
- Enter the settings of your Sony Xperia
- Click on the “screen” settings
- Tap on “smart backlight”
- Press the slider to activate the function
Undoubtedly a smarter way to use the phone screen, adjusting its lighting only for those times when we are using the screen, because why would we want it to stay on if we are not looking at it, that’s where we save energy.
