●Use Wi-Fi, especially if you have a metered plan. Although 4G connectivity will give you a good streaming experience—and most phones with 4G have large, sharp displays—it will burn through your data allowance pretty quickly. Switching over to Wi-Fi saves your data usage.
●Adjust your display's brightness. Take it off Auto, and set it to less than 50
percent brightness, to save your battery from dying too quickly. (And then find
a shady place to watch!).
●Download a free battery-monitor app. It can will alert you if you're running out
of juice. (Some phones, such as Motorola's latest Android phones, have this
function built in.)
●Hold the screen 3 or 4 feet away, to avoid
eyestrain. Some phones
(such as the HTC Evo 4G) have built-in stands; or you can buy stands for
tablets or phones, for not much money. Or go DIY and make your own, from, say,
a cheap picture frame.
