Low Power Mode is often used as a safeguard when an iPhone battery is critically low, but it is important not to rely on it without understanding how it changes device behavior. While the feature can extend usage time, it does so by automatically adjusting multiple system settings that can affect performance and daily functions.

It also notes that iPhone typically suggests turning Low Power Mode on when battery level hits 20% and automatically disables it when the device reaches 80% while charging.
