OnePlus 5/5T Sleep Standby Optimization Feature

The new feature will identify your sleep pattern based on the usage of your phone. It will help to turn off the network during certain gaps of inactivity to reduce power consumption. As a result, it will eventually give you more juice of the existing battery. The connectivity may be affected for a short while when you turn off the network but the company claims that the phone gets out of Sleep Standby optimization before you wake up.

While announcing the new OxygenOS update the company stated in a forum post that:

“The phone will automatically cancel any network restrictions and get the phone out of Sleep Standby just before you wake up so that you won’t miss any notifications such as news updates, emails etc” 

Here’s How to enable sleep standby optimization

After you’ve successfully installed the OxygenOS 5.1.4 update on your OnePlus 5 or OnePlus 5T, you can enable the Sleep Standby optimization by doing the following steps:

• Go to Settings
• Tap on Battery option
• Tap on Battery optimization
• Then select Advanced optimization by tapping the three dots from the top-right corner of the screen.

The latest software update for the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T is rolling out as an incremental rollout. So, it may take some time to reach your device. This update will be available randomly to a limited number of devices globally.
