To activate Power Saving Mode on OPPO devices, navigate to Settings > Battery > Power Saving Mode and toggle it on. This feature reduces background activity, limits app performance, and adjusts screen brightness to extend battery life. For emergency use, Ultra Power Saving Mode disables non-essential functions, providing critical functionality for hours with minimal charge.

How Does Power Saving Mode Work on OPPO Smartphones?
OPPO’s Power Saving Mode employs adaptive algorithms to restrict background processes, reduce CPU performance, and dim displays. It dynamically adjusts based on remaining battery percentage, prioritizing essential functions like calls and messages. The system identifies power-hungry apps and temporarily suspends their network access while maintaining core device operations.
The optimization engine uses machine learning to analyze usage patterns over time. For instance, if you typically use messaging apps more frequently than video streaming services during work hours, the system will allocate resources accordingly. This granular control extends to hardware components – the display’s refresh rate drops to 60Hz even on high-end models with 120Hz screens, while Wi-Fi scanning intervals increase from 15 seconds to 2 minutes. The table below illustrates key performance adjustments:

Which Background Processes Get Restricted in Power Saving Mode?
OPPO’s system targets location services, automatic updates, background app refresh, and animated UI elements. Exceptions can be set for specific apps through Battery Optimization > Never Optimize settings. Push notifications from non-essential apps get delayed until the device is charging or exiting power-saving states.
Advanced restrictions include limiting cloud sync intervals for OPPO’s own services like HeyTap Cloud from real-time to every 6 hours. Third-party apps face stricter limitations – social media platforms can only refresh content when actively open, and video streaming apps lose their picture-in-picture functionality. The system employs a three-tier prioritization system:
“OPPO’s multi-stage power management system demonstrates sophisticated battery optimization. Their proprietary algorithm balances performance constraints with user experience better than industry averages. The automatic app hibernation after 3 days of inactivity is particularly effective for casual users.”

How to Customize Power Saving Mode Settings?
Customize via Settings > Battery > Power Saving Mode Settings. Users can set activation thresholds (5%-15%), whitelist apps, adjust performance caps, and schedule activation times. Advanced options include restricting 5G connectivity, reducing animation frames, and limiting wallpaper motion effects.
For power users, the Custom Power Plan feature allows creating multiple profiles tailored to different scenarios. A “Work Mode” could enable email synchronization while disabling gaming enhancements, while a “Night Mode” might prioritize silent operation over background updates. The granular controls extend to individual component management:
| Customization Option | Effect | Recommended Setting |
|---|---|---|
| Performance Cap | Limits CPU/GPU output | Medium (Balanced) |
| Network Throttling | Reduces data speeds | Enabled during peak hours |
| Auto-Brightness Adjustment | Lowers maximum brightness | -30% from normal levels |
FAQs
- Does Power Saving Mode Disable Fast Charging?
- No. Power Saving Mode doesn’t affect charging speeds but automatically deactivates once battery reaches 20% during charging. VOOC flash charging remains fully functional regardless of power saving status.
- Can I Use GPS in Ultra Power Saving Mode?
- Ultra mode disables GPS by default. For navigation emergencies, temporarily disable Ultra mode or use the dedicated “Emergency Location” shortcut available on OPPO devices running ColorOS 11 or later.
- How Often Should I Use Power Saving Mode?
- Daily use of Standard Power Saving Mode is safe. Limit Ultra mode to 2-3 uses per week to maintain optimal battery health. Prolonged Ultra mode usage may cause lithium-ion cells to maintain deep discharge states, accelerating capacity degradation.
