But almost all devices have the option of Bluetooth. So in this case you could use this Bluetooth tethering feature and provide an internet connection. Wi-Fi Hotspot features consume more battery as compared to any other features in Android devices. So many times conserving battery and using a hotspot is not possible simultaneously. But Bluetooth tethering consumes very little battery as compared to Wi-Fi hotspots. So this feature could help you there. It has a little slow speed, but it’s okay than switching off mobile.
