Abstract:
Smartphones energy consumption and management have become a major issue all over the smartphones research and
developing (R&D) centers. On smartphones, the researches must achieve the wide requirements of the power drawn by the
smartphone components and its new huge applications as well as the revolutions with the new communication technologies. Based
on the above, it is necessary to take the approach for energy consumption optimization and management of energy conservation into
consideration. This will help to achieve the desired green environment technologies for optimizing energy use in smartphones. In this
review paper, we reviewed many energy consumption concepts; the smartphone services and applications, the testbeds and platforms
survey, recent methods for power measurements, the key metrics used, and the energy consumption optimization schemes.
