Best coworking spaces Leeds: UMIDIGI hotspot and battery tips?

boult

I have been working remotely from Leeds and I am trying to decide between working from home, cafes and a proper coworking desk. My phone has become a big part of my setup, since I use it as a hotspot for video calls when the Wi-Fi is weak, and I rely on its battery and notifications all day. While comparing the best coworking spaces in Leeds, I made a short checklist: a stable Wi-Fi connection with a backup, a quiet area for calls, power sockets and a place to charge devices, flexible day passes or monthly desks, and good transport links so the commute is easy. I also check the mobile signal inside the building, because a space with a weak signal makes hotspot backup and two-factor codes harder to use.

I would like to hear from other UMIDIGI users who work from their phones. How long does your battery last when you use the hotspot for a few hours of calls, and do you keep the phone plugged in at your desk? Which settings help you save battery and keep the connection steady, such as limiting background apps, using 5 GHz Wi-Fi, or turning on a power-saving mode? Do you use a separate data plan for hotspot work, and did you notice any heat problems during long calls? Any tips on accessories like a small power bank, a phone stand or a travel router for coworking days would be really useful.
