Good news for power users of Sony’s Xperia line of phones. Sony confirmed in a statement that Stamina mode, which had previously been removed when Xperia devices were updated to Android 6.0 (also known as Marshmallow), would be returning.
The feature had been replaced by Google’s Doze mode, which was integrated into Android 6.0 and was designed to do something similar. However, the main drawback of Doze is that only a lack of movement of the phone would activate it and users of devices with Android 6.0 were finding that their battery life was reduced significantly from where it was under previous versions of Android.
Here’s Sony’s statement on the return of Stamina:
“Great news. One of the most requested features is coming back to your Xperia running Marshmallow: Stamina mode.
We don’t have a release schedule yet, but the feature will be definitely available for members of the Xperia Beta Program in the near future.
We would like to thank you for your patience and constant feedback. Your voice is essential for the development of a better software.”
