Abstract
An embodiment of a method for battery power management comprises the following steps. A first power consumption magnitude indicating the amount of battery power consumed when the portable electronic device is in standby mode is calculated. A second power consumption magnitude indicating the amount of battery power consumed for a dynamic function to be activated is estimated. A power storage magnitude indicating the remaining power of the battery is acquired. The remaining battery life is calculated according to the first and second power consumption magnitudes and the power storage magnitude.
