Expert's Review
There are three components that drains battery most: connectivity (3G/4G/WiFi), CPU speed and mobile data (apps, processes). JuiceDefender wants to give you comprehensive control over these components in order to save some battery.
First, it contains 5 preset profiles (from default mode to full customization): balanced, agressive, extreme, advanced, customized). By that way, you can set when to enable/disable 3G/4G/WiFi, set CPU speed to adapt it to the needs of each app or processes and manage them to your liking (task killing).
Thus, it contains mobile data toggle automation, as well as connectivity toggle automation (APN), battery consumption optimization (when screen off, battery under threshold, etc.), smart brightness control and a full activity log of all of this.
But what we've really found interesting are two features: "Comprehensive Connectivity Scheduling" and "CPU scaling when phone is idle". First one, will enable/disable connectivity automatically, when you think you're going to need it. Second feature, decreases CPU speed not to waste battery when isn't needed.
JuiceDefender has been developed by LateDroid, an experienced developer focused on the extension of battery life by controlling system parameters in a understandable way for amateur users.
It's true that the main catch of our smartphones is their battery-life. For that reason, we consider JuiceDefender a must have since it truly helps us to extend battery life.
JuiceDefender - Battery Saver is a powerful yet easy to use power manager app specifically designed to extend the battery life of your Android device. Packed with smart functions, it automatically and transparently manages the most battery draining components, like 3G/4G connectivity and WiFi.
The _preset modes_ are the perfect way to gain precious hours of battery life - literally as easy as one tap!
JuiceDefender also allows _complete customization_ through a clean and intuitive user interface; and once configured it runs by itself, improving battery life in a fully automated manner.
Finally, it _integrates seamlessly_ with power control widgets and shortcuts, without interfering with manual settings.
With JuiceDefender - Battery Saver you can easily manage Mobile Data, WiFi and CPU speed, you can keep power consumption under control (e.g. disabling connectivity when the battery runs low), schedule regular Synchronization events, enable or disable connectivity for specific apps, auto-toggle WiFi depending on your location, and much more.
When it comes to smartphones, battery life is never enough: run at full capacity when you need it, but save battery when you don’t, with JuiceDefender.

I recently downloaded this app and I have noticed a drastic change in the battery discharge rate: it is much, much slower. This app will allow you to go longer periods without charging your battery as well as other useful features. Wonderful app for Abby

Ease of use and an inclusive front-end that handles the related settings for you. A fair preview version provides a decent trial version that still improves battery life.
