Abstract
A method, system and computer program product for saving power for a mobile terminal. Configuration parameters of a first virtual screen are obtained in response to the occurrence of a first trigger event, where the first virtual screen is at least part of the screen of the mobile terminal. The scope of the first virtual screen is determined according to the configuration parameters of the first virtual screen. Data to be displayed on the screen of the mobile terminal is displayed within the determined scope of the first virtual screen. The display of the screen of the mobile terminal is closed outside the determined scope of the first screen. By realizing a virtual screen and using only part of the screen of the mobile terminal for displaying, there is a reduction in the power consumed by the screen display so that the battery life of the mobile terminal is improved.
