[QUOTE="RoboMan, post: 696561, member: 53544"] Not really, no. Does an antivirus fiercefully drain battery life on a laptop or phone? It actually uses around 0-1% battery on Android Nougat. And can't even feel the difference on a laptop. Of course the services used and offered are totally different, but it's the same point. Fortificate security by adding a couple of services and processes. Will you run out of battery sooner? Probably. But you won't be able to tell it almost. You can follow [USER=66840]@Flengo[/USER] advice and test it for your own: best way to find out. Because of course it depends on your OS, phone and VPN app (and it's optimization ways). [/QUOTE]
