Reducing Power Usage During Activity

A device, system, and method reduce a power usage while an activity state is detected. The method is performed at a device that establish a network connection to a first network via first cells and to a second network via second cells. The device is connected to the first network via a first cell of the first cells. The method includes determining an activity state or a non-activity state associated with the device. The method includes measuring a quality of the network connection via the first cell. When the activity state is determined and when the quality is at least a predetermined threshold, the method includes setting a first priority and a first scanning pace for the first cell and a second priority and a second scanning pace for other ones of the first cells and the second cells.
