Update: The battery life on my old e-reader went from 2 days to 2 weeks

I have this e-reader I got back in 2019, and for years I was charging it every other day. I finally did a full factory reset last month after a software update. Now the same device holds a charge for almost fourteen days with the same daily use. It makes me wonder how much old apps and cached data were draining it in the background. Has anyone else seen a huge jump in battery life just from resetting an old gadget?

Wait, so a factory reset basically gave you a new battery? That's wild. Makes me wanna try it on my old phone.

My buddy did a full reset on his old tablet and it was like a new device, battery lasted forever after that. He said it was full of junk from years of updates.
