<\/div>\nGoogle Chrome is considered to be one of the fastest browsers out there. Chrome<\/a> is, however, also notorious for being one of the most resource-consuming browsers, which end up taking a toll on your battery if you happen to be using it on a laptop. Now it seems Google<\/a> is trying to resolve this issue by making some neat changes to Google Chrome.

Technical documents obtained from Google<\/a> details a new feature for Google Chrome in development. This feature will come into effect starting from Chrome<\/a> 86. Google is set to deliver a new flag in the browser which will limit the JavaScript timer wakeups on background pages. The company is reportedly going to set this value to 1 per minute, just like Apple’s Safari.

In a test described by 9to5google, a laptop lasted 6.4 hours using Chrome<\/a> and 9.3 hours using Safari<\/a>. However, after the same change, the battery life went up to 8.2 hours on Chrome. This nearly 2 hours of extra battery life, which is a lot.

There were 36 tabs open in the background. A separate test saw a fullscreen YouTube<\/a> video playing with a few background tabs open. While the results were not as big in this test, a notable increase in battery life was still observed.<\/p>\n It is important that we don’t take the numbers in this test too seriously as the test is not a representation of actual real-life usage. Still, the step can be a first for many who simply do not use Google Chrom<\/a>e on their laptops because of the effect it has on their up-time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Tags:<\/b> BRG.In Staff<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Google Chrome vs Safari test<\/h2>\n
