Techniques discussed herein can facilitate power management at a User Equipment (UE) via selection of a power management stage based on a current power status. One example aspect is a UE comprising one or more processors configured to: monitor a temperature of the UE via one or more temperature sensors and a power usage of the UE; determine a power status of the UE based at least in part on the temperature of the UE and the power usage of the UE; select, based at least in part on the determined power status, a power management stage of a plurality of power management stages; and implement one or more power management techniques associated with the selected power management stage. A notification can be triggered to alert a user that the processor is implementing the one or more power management techniques prior to implementation.
