Samsung S24 Ultra

For the first time in years, I've been forced to get a relatively good mobile as my Cat S26 Pro started to expand as probably the first stage in the explosion of the battery.

I looked up various recommendations on YouTube and my first priority was to configure settings to prolong the life of the Samsung S24 Ultra battery so thought I'd document on here for discussion of the Samsung S24 Ultra (not necessarily to make power-saving the topic).

Settings -> Display -> Screen resolution -> HD+ 1560 x 720 (worst compared to FHD+ 2340 x 1080 default, and recommended QHD+ 3120 x 1440), Dark Mode always on (power-saving due to OLED), Motion smoothness (Standard, refresh capped at 60 Hz instead of 120 Hz)

Settings -> Battery -> Battery protection (maximum, charging capped at 80% battery), Power saving on most of the time (CPU capped at 70%, 5G off, etc.), Charging settings (Fast charging off, and Fast wireless charging off)

Settings -> Lock screen and AOD -> Always On Display (off)

Dark image, Hubble Ultra Deep Field, for lock screen and background.

Adding some additional info to track over time:
