Not really, Just walking in my door the phone sat for maby 15 minutes on my coffe table to cool off.
After that I put on charger, the one that came with the phone. The phone made a noise and it said a warning. I quickly took off the battery cover and took a quick screenshot pulled the battery out of phone, And let phone and battery cool off for 20 minutes.

Basically as the title says, I've bought a "refurbished" one, but I'm not sure whether it's faulty, or whether this is just the average battery life of one of these things!
Woke up at 6am, I used it for about 30 mins this morning on facebook/ebay/bbc news through wifi. Send about 20 txt messages, 10 minutes on the phone. ANother 30 mins browsing/facebook on my lunch break. 12 hours later it's sitting at 17 hours battery life. And it's been on power save mode the WHOLE time. Is this just something I'm going to need to get used to or is mine just a dud?
LOVE the phone otherwise though
whats youre screen on time? do you keep data and stuff on when not in use?
The first couple of days it will be bad while it builds up cache. It will get better. You can try rooting it and putting a custom kernel in to make it last even longer.

1day 2hours 51minutes and 20s on battery with 43% left No power saver mode.
As of maybe a couple of months, my phone shuts off almost immediately after getting to 20% it turns off and when plugged starts charging from 16% or so. Any idea what may be causing this and how to fix it?
I have the same issue mate. It happened twice for me. Was using Snapchat and the battery drained down to 19% and then it suddenly showed 0% and the phone shut down. And then after I charged it for a bit, it showed around 20%
I have same problem here, guess factory reset might helps.
Same issue on my friend's Honor 8.
Mine turns off at random percentages. Sometimes it happens at 20%, 10% and most recently 67%. I'm wondering if changing the battery would fix the issue
same issue here disappeared for like 2 months and it happened today
This suddenly happened to me today, I was using Snapchat and I took a pic, was writing a caption to send to my friends and all of a sudden it dropped to 0% and shut off, even though it was already at low battery I know It still had enough life for me to be able to send the snap and listen to music. What sucks is that I didn't look at the battery percentage before It turned off but when I turned it back on it was at 13%, even though when I tried turning it on from before it kept telling me 0% and shutting off repeatedly
i noticed that when i plugged in the charger and checked the recents all the apps opened were showing up.....looks like its doing soft reboot but cant complete the reboot......smh!!!
Same problem here

Rooted stock
I realize that it happens when it's really cold outside. It happened to me a second time today when I was outside in the cold, so I guess the phone turns off to prevent anything from happening internally, because it shut off at around 50% of battery and when I turned it back on it wasn't 0% like it had told me
I'm switching out the battery today I'll let you guys know if it fixes the issue
No root till now fully stock.
Well replacing the battery fixed the issue. I also deleted battery stats once it was charged to 100%
Same issue here. My device goes from 20% to 1% in about 2 seconds. And then when i charge the phone, it shows charging from 19%. It happens all the time.
Hi, had same but my first time died when I was flying drone with it, it was at 17% of bat. I was so nervous that I lose my drone that I forgot to check what was the problem with bat. Now when I was trying to film my daughter skiing after 2min outside of my pocket it turned off although bat. was at 78% and tem. outside was -3*C. Yesterday I've send it on warranty, I let you know what they say (if anything). Mine H8 is stock no root.
Wander is there any app than can check number of cycles of battery, this way I will know for sure if Service replaced battery or only told that it was replaced

Did you guys need root to delete the battery stats?

Did the service center fix the issue?
Yes, they replaced battery, screen and frame, actually they only left old back panel and MB. Screen was replaced because of dead pixels (but I didn't saw any before). After a year, I think I have same issue with battery again but this time no warranty anymore ;(
Two days ago i dropped my phone in a (clean) toilet and picked it up in a matter of seconds. Since then many strange things have happened, the first 10 minutes after I dropped it the phone worked just fine but for the camera that was all foggy. Then it went out and I put it in rice in front of a cool air vent. 2 hours later when an alarm went off it turned itself on even though when I tried to turn it on it wouldn't let me. So to be on the safe side, I turned it off and left it to dry for another 24 hours. When the 24 hours had went I tried to turn on the phone but it was completely dead. I plugged it in the charger and tried to boot the phone and all it did was blink the led 3 times fast then start blinking steadily for about half an hour. When the half hour had passed it started showing the "charging when turned off screen" saying 0% charged. So I thought I left it overnight and when I wake up it still says 0%, so it hasn't charged anything in 8 hours, which is kinda strange.
What has happened with my phone and how can I fix it, do I need a battery replacement?
Thank you for answers.

Well it's obviously water damage. Might not just be a battery issue, I suggest you send it in to Huawei to fix/replace.
it happened yesterday when when i was charging my phone and unplugged the cable, my phone freeze with charge icon still there, and i plug the cable back and nothing happened, need to restart the phone and its back to normal again...what a weird issue...happening after update to Pie...still buggy as hell, anyone facing the same issue ??l And one more thing...the battery drain kinda crazy...from 100% to 99 % only take about 3 minutes without doing anything ?

Would be great if you guys stop complaining?
It happens to the best and most stable phones out there once in a while that the phone freezes for 10 to 20 seconds then recovers (maybe once every 2 months or so)
OnePlus doesn't lie about battery capacity when it's 100 like other manufacturers where they fake 30 mins to drop from 100 to 99

Dude im.not complaining... it happened after update to P ...just sayin
Hey guys, As title says, So the story on this thing lol Bought it new I believe 1.5-2 years ago, battery got bad, so this spring in february I replaced the battery my self, I had ordered 2, Both certainly a genuine battery, I had a S7 so I wanted a spare for mine when IT came time. After battery replacement phone was great again, good as new! then as of 3 days ago random shut offs. battery reads 80% shut off, Then I noticed If I left it off for a few hours or all night and turn it on in the am 0%! Tried charging and It's not taking a charge really, It went to 9% and stayed there for ever and was getting hot so I didn't want to risk it. ok so bad battery, this morning I swapped in my OTHER spare new battery, and Let it run up to 100% before turning on for first time, All seemed good! then all the sudden after 6 hours (before it was like every 10 minutes it'd shut off.) It started doing it again, Same thing battery is dead it figures, But it can't be.
Thinking perhaps the board it's self or something just ain't right? :\ Any thing to check or tips/tricks? I tried googling and came up empty handed.

It's likely the batteries you have are not genuine. Fake copies don't have a control chip which interfaces with the device. Your phone is shutting down to protect itself from overheating and other problems caused by copies.
There are some great copies out there but trust me they're still copies.

Yeah that's for sure on the copies, I had looked at how to compare what I had VS the fake ones and they seemed to be genuine? The batteries came from 2 seperate sources as well so hard to say, if the first one I put in was a copy then it did last a while but surprised then that my 2nd one never made it more than a few hours and the same issue. But you just never know. Everybody claims your buying a genuine battery but I'd assume the listing prices are tell tale of a fake/copy lol
Monitoring the battery and either the voltage sensor is bad or the battery, it'll chwrge and say it's full but yet voltage goes to 3.4v, then if I plug it in again it'll go up to 4.2v, once I unplug it, it drops of course, I was using a battery burn program and Itll drop from r. 2 to 3.4 right away, I got it to run for 15 mins one time then it dropped off, otherwise another time from 4.2v it dropped to 3.0 then shut off after starting th test in like 20 seconds, reports battery immediately as 17% after re booting.
This battery sat for a while so will try a 3rd fresh battery and hopefully genuine, though I suspect my past 2 were genuine.
Wanted to update this for anybody who may find this thread off google. I got the same replacement battery again Which was the fix, Asked the seller and they said they'd shoot me a new battery, Again whether genuine or not... Well they claim genuine. I let the phone charge to full and Performed the battery draw test by running the 2 apps to bog the phone down and make everything run to 100%. ran like that 0 issues for about 2 hours, Voltage was very stable the whole way through, before It would maybe hold for a few mins then shoot right down from 4.0 to ~3.2V. Even now after a hour It was still well above 3.7V. My old s7 battery was exactly that, sat unused on my shelf for ~2 years because it was mis-placed and even installed it was no good either.
