Gaming is one of the top uses for Galaxy S21s, so knowing the options really helps.
Limit the refresh rate to save battery: We mention in the display section how to turn on adaptive refresh, but you can also limit the refresh rate to 48Hz to save battery in games that don’t need a fast refresh. Open the Game Launcher app and tap the menu button top left. Hit “Game performance” to enter the settings. You can then toggle on “low refresh rate”.
Block navigation gestures in games: This is a big deal to stop you accidentally leaving a game when playing because your swipes were wrongly interpreted. Go to the game booster settings as detailed above, then select “block during the game”. Here you can toggle off navigation gestures. To exit a game you’ll have to swipe twice.
Turn off auto-brightness during games: There’s nothing more annoying than your brightness dimming when you’re gaming. In the menu detailed above you can also opt to block auto-brightness to avoid this problem.
Turn on Dolby Atmos for gaming: Another feature of the phone is Atmos and you can have it turn on for the game. Head into settings > sounds and vibrations > sound quality and effects and you’ll see the option for Atmos in games.
How to use the screen recorder: There’s a built-in screen recorder on the S21 and you can access this via quick settings. Just swipe down and you can turn it on, with options to record no sound, media sound, or media sound and the mic. Once it is active you get on-screen controls, which can be minimized to the side so they don’t get in the way of your game.
That’s it!
