Abstract

We conduct a large-scale user study to measure the energy consumption characteristics of 17300 BlackBerry smartphone users. Our dataset consists of over 1050 years of cumulative data and is several orders of magnitude larger than any previous work. We identify three distinct user types: opportunistic chargers, light-consumers, and nighttime chargers and report on the energy consumption characteristics of each user type.
