Samsung USB Power Delivery Charging Pause: How to use and supported devices
Samsung One UI offers the USB Power Delivery charging pause feature, which pauses battery charging and connects directly to power during gaming. It reduces device heat while using the product and aids in battery management.
If you use the function while the charger is connected to the Galaxy smartphone, it will provide power to play the product and charge the battery.
This feature minimizes battery charging and allows most of the power to be supplied only to the running device in order to reduce the impact on the other products such as the battery, due to simultaneous game execution and battery charging app operations while gaming.
How to use it?
You can easily enable and use the Samsung USB Power Delivery Charging Pause feature, firstly you have to install and run the fame after connecting the PD charger. When the USB power Delivery Charging pause function appeared on the screen, you can turn it on at that time. Also, you can turn it on by following the steps mentioned below.
- Open the Game Launcher app on your Galaxy smartphone
- Click on the More option
- Tap on the Games Booster function
- Here, you can see the USB Power Delivery Charing Pause function.
- Press the toggle to turn it on.
Some Conditions:
The feature is not visible
- In order to activate the menu of the USB Power Delivery Charging Pause function, the corresponding menu is displayed after connecting the PD charger for the first time. Firstly, connect the charger > Install and run any game > USB Power Delivery charging pause function is displayed.
The feature is visible but it is not activated
- This function is enabled only when a PD charger is connected. Check whether a normal charger is connected or not, and connect the PD charger.
Activated feature but it is not working
This feature directly supplies power to the devices without charging the battery, so the two conditions must be met at the same time. They are:
- The game is on: Even if the game is running, if the screen is off or actions other than the game are in progress, such as switching to another screen, the function does not work.
- When battery charge exceeds 20% with PD charger connected (25W or higher, PPS function support is required). In addition, the battery may charge if a normal charger other than a PD charger is connected, or if the battery charge is below 20%, which is normal.
