I was playing 1 game on steam (phasmophobia) and it just drained my galaxy book 3 ultra battery in like 45 mins. I thought this laptop can handle gaming. But it is terrible. How can I fix this battery issue?

      Most laptops have extremely shortened battery life while playing games (especially if these utilize most of the processor/graphics card computing power). Furthermore, it's highly recommended that, if you want to game on-the-go with a gaming laptop of any kind, to connect to a power source for maximum gaming potential.

      It's possible that the game's settings are causing high power consumption. Lowering graphics settings and closing background apps can help. Also, ensure your laptop is in a high-performance power mode and check for any software updates that may optimize performance.
