With the increasing integration of smartphones into our lives, battery life has become an important factor for users. While there have been notable advancements in battery technology, Google is offering a significant improvement with the introduction of the dimmed Wallpaper feature in Android 14 Beta 3.
Android 14 Beta 3’s dimmed wallpapers
Android 14 Beta 3 introduces several innovations for battery life in the Battery Saver mode. According to reports from Beta 3 users, when the mode is activated, the wallpaper is automatically darkened. This feature keeps the screen brightness constant but darkens the wallpaper, promising to extend battery life. In addition to the dimmed wallpaper, the Battery Saver mode also highlights the icons on the home screen.
One notable aspect of this new feature is that it works automatically when the Battery Saver mode is enabled, without requiring any additional adjustments from the user. The dimmed wallpaper has a noticeable effect, particularly with wallpapers that have lighter tones, resulting in power savings.
According to the news of Xiaomiui, the POCO M4 Pro 5G model, which Xiaomi presented to users in 2022, started to receive the MIUI 14 update.
While this new feature is remarkable, it is important to remember that it is still being tested with Beta 3. Therefore, it should be noted that the update is still in the beta stage.
Google is also changing the iconic design with Android 14, focusing on usage patterns for large-screen devices. With the release of Pixel Fold and Pixel Tablet, there have been several design innovations. As a result, the mouse cursor has a much more modern appearance with Beta 3.
Android 14 Beta 3 is being rolled out for Pixel model smartphones. Unfortunately, the number of devices currently able to access it is quite limited. The model range will expand with the stable version.
