Given how battery life is high on everybody's priorities when choosing a smartphone, it's only natural that people reacted that way. Samsung Note 5 A smaller battery, all things being equal, obviously means shorter run time for the juicer.
1.
Reduce that brightness!
That Samsung Galaxy Note 5’s 5.7-inch QHD screen is big, beautiful and bright. The only problem is that it is also a resource hog, and those are exactly the reasons why. If you really want to expand battery life, you should watch out for that screen. One way to continue enjoying your phone and save energy is to reduce brightness. It’s easy to do. And unless you spend a lot of time outdoors, chances are you are overdoing the brightness, anyways.
2. note 5 ultra power saving mode
Use Ultra Power Saving Mode
Go to Settings > System > Power Saving > Ultra Power Saving Mode > On. You can enable or disable apps like: “Phone”, “Messages”, “Internet” or tap “+” to add more apps in the ultra power saving mode.
3. note 5 display brightness and screen timeout
Reduce Screen Brightness & Screen Timeout
Go to Settings > Quick Settings > Display > Brightness > uncheck the Auto and drag the slide to the left to adjust the screen brightness. Also, set the Screen Timeout under the tap of Display.
4. note 5 smart stay
Toggle off Smart Stay
Go to Settings > Display > Smart Stay and toggle it off.
5. note 5 motions and gestures
Turn off Motions and Gestures
Go to Settings > Motions and Gestures and disable the 4 options.
6. Super AMOLED: more blacks, less whites
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 sports a gorgeous Super AMOLED screen. Colors are vibrant and blacks are super deep. This also means the screen uses much more energy to reproduce
lighter colors. In addition, picturing the color black will use no energy, as the pixel will technically be turned off (this is how AMOLED panels achieve such deep blacks).
7. note 5 abnormal battery usage
Check Abnormal Battery Usage
Go to Settings > Battery > Abnormal Battery Usage and monitor the battery draining apps, update, remove or reinstall them.
8. note 5 go grayscale
Go Grayscale
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Vision > and turn on Grayscale if you use the screen all the time, for example, reading.
9. disable wifi always scanning
Let Wi-Fi Scan While It is On
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi > More > Always allow scanning > Scan only while Wi-Fi is on.
10. note 5 vibrations
Set Vibrations
Go to Settings > Sound & Notifications > Vibrations and set the vibration intensity and other options according to your needs.
11. note 5 auto scan
Switch off Auto Scan
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Universal Switch > Settings > and switch off Auto Scan.
12. note 5 gesture wake up
Shut down Gesture Wake Up
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Dexterity and Interaction > and shut down Gesture Wake Up.
13. note 5 interaction control
Disable Interaction Control
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Dexterity and Interaction > and disable Interaction Control.
14. note 5 dark theme
Pick up a Dark Theme
The Galaxy Note 5 comes with an AMOLED display screen, which power saving capability works perfectly in a black background as it needs more power to visualize the white screen.
15. Remove or disable apps you don’t use
How many of you are app hoarders? I know I am. It’s easy to download and keep all those awesome apps in your phone, which is great if you use them all, but that is hardly ever the case. Look through your applications and uninstall whatever you don’t need. If you can’t uninstall them (bloatware), just disable them from the app manager.

GREAT tip.
Thanks man.
Some will say the battery is good others will say it sucks. I have hear them both for the Galaxy S6 so here is a few tips for increasing the battery life on your device. This works for any Android device.
1- Avoid Live wallpapers, instead set Dark wallpapers.
2- Set Brightness to " Auto " and lower Timeout Duration
3- Delete unused widgets
4- Toggle From 4G to 2G
5- Changing Application Sync Settings
6- Disabling Background Data
7- Close applications that you are not using
8- Turn off WiFi & Bluetooth when not needed
9- Disable unnecessary features & gestures
10- Enable power saver (Duh)
Here is a video guide on how to access and use these features on your phone if you dont happen to know how to.

1. First, go into Settings
2. Tap on the Display option
3. Select the Screen modes tab
4. You see the four different color profiles available, the default is Adaptive display
Also Read : How to use Android Marshmallow 6.0
5. Tap on the other ones and notice how the picture of the bottles changes slightly in appearance (noticeable only on the phone itself)
6. You have the AMOLED photo mode as well
7. The screen mode that is the closest to the sRGB industry color standard is actually the Basic mode
So on my stock T-Mobile LG Leon 4G LTE, I've noticed that once midnight rolls around the phone brightness drops to 0% and below the stock brightness slider on the drop-down menu it says "Night Brightness: 12:00AM~6:00AM" I've looked all over the phone and cannot for the life of me find where to change those numbers. I'd really like to use this feature more than just at midnight, lol. Is this an adjustable thing? Thanks.

I don't have "other screen settings"
Settings / Display / Brightness and disable night brightness in there.
Can you post a screenshot of what you see in that section?
If you use RR rom or any other custom rom like RR then you probably know that when you play a song then the music visualizer (aka 'pulse' under configuration >nav bar) floats upon the navbar, and so i wanted to turn that feature on when the screen was off and so i did a trick to enable it with daydream mode and i thought it might look cool and it does looks amazing on AMOLED screens, if its having a black background on an amoled display then the pixels are turned off as you all know and thus turning on with daydream mode really looks amazing so i thought of sharing this wih you all
First enable daydream mode under display & lights and select clock now tap on that setting icon right next to it now go ahead and select your style that you want, i had selected digital and turn on night mode now select when to daydream on the upper 3 dots (drop down menu) and set to either
Now go into nova settings and select gesture & inputs and now you need to select a gesture it can be anything but i had select swipe up now go to shortcuts and select activities, now scroll way down till you see System UI and tap on it and now select daydream and you're done. Now you can go into display & lights again and you can increase its display timeout, I set it to 60 minutes when i listen to music without charging and when i don't i set it back to usual timeout 30 sec
To activate this see the images down below
enjoy
