Report: Upcoming OnePlus 5 update to improve battery life greatly
The main highlight of the update is better autonomy for the phone's battery. Apparently, OnePlus plans to make some significant changes to the kernel, the OS part that manages the communication between various phone components, which will improve the battery life.
One way to increase the OnePlus 5's battery life is by including Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) technology into the phone's kernel. EAS is supposed to better take advantage of the big.LITTLE architecture implemented in powerful chipsets like the Snapdragon 835 inside the OnePlus 5.
Once EAS is enabled in the OnePlus 5, the smartphone will better manage the cores of the Snapdragon 835 processor and will distribute each task more efficiently.
EAS has already been implemented in Pixel and Pixel XL last year, but it might be enabled in other smartphones that use the same version of kernel as Google's flagships, including the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Xiaomi Mi 6.
