Abstract
Reducing power consumption in an electronic device can include analyzing device usage data associated with the device to predict an extended period of user inactivity, the usage data including at least one of historical usage data and present usage signals and entering an enhanced reduced power state by implementing one or more power saving optimizations for at least a portion the extended period of extended user inactivity, the one or more power saving optimizations slowing, delaying, or interrupting one or more normal activities normally performed by the device. The method can further include exiting the enhanced reduced power state by suspending the one or more power saving optimizations. Exiting the enhanced reduced power state can be performed in response to at least one of: user activity; a specified user routine; or a time predicted by the analyzing device usage data.
