I haven't heard anyone post their findings... what are they seeing in terms of amount of battery life? Days? Hours?
I posted my screenshots in the other ZeroLemon thread. To briefly recap, on my first discharge, I managed almost 9 hrs of screen-on time on almost 50 hrs of total on-time.
normally, it is about 1 hours. However, it also last longer or shorter. It is not exact result.

That doesnt seem too good for a 7500mAh battery. Thats nearly three times as large as the stock battery assuming the mAh rating is correctly showcased. I would expect at least 15 hours screen on time.

But then the phone was on for nearly 50 hrs. The screenshots I have seen of the 5200mah battery results showed about 9 to 10 hrs of screen on time with the phone on for about 24 to 25 hours.
If I were to watch movies or TV shows from a 100% charge, I would be able to achieve 13 hrs or more easily. And also, it was my first discharge and I flashed my phone several times during the first cycle, which also messed up my battery calibration and stats.
In the end, however, I'm not too concerned about the absolute validity of zerolemon's claim because the battery more than exceeds what I was looking for from an extended battery and I don't have to stress or worry about the battery running low or dying on me.
well my concern is if this beast is bulky just like their GS3
The initial charge (53%) lasted about 10 hours.

I'm still on my first run, but here are my stats so far on my very 1st cycle. Sorry, I'm on my work PC so I can't provide screenshots at the moment:
Current Battery Level: 58%
It's been off the charger for 1 day, 11 hours
Screen On Time: 4hrs 41 minutes
So if it follows suit the rest of the way, I'll be looking at roughly 11+ hours screen on time on the very first cycle, which is normally the worst performance you'll get on a battery. Well worth the $40 folks!
I believe most people are like me and they are only in the 1st or 2nd cycle. I am working on my first full cycle now. Nothing crazy so far, 3hrs 30 minutes of on screen with 55% left and the phone has been unplugged for 26 hours now.
I won't post any screenshots until the 5th cycle.

Loving mine so far, battery went a bit faster than i though but i was out in an area with no signal for a few hours so its to be expected. 1d 9hrs on this charge so far and 41% left, screen time of about 4 hours. Not really surprised due to the lack of a signal though. Even if it doesn't work as well as others think it should it is total worth the extra $40 and bulk. I dont worry about my phone crapping out now, also I'm still on my first discharge. I left it plugged in for about 13 hours prior to unplugging it for the first time. I have had a few spikes of a few % but nothing bad. This is all on mobile data as well, dont have wifi set up at home yet (stupid comcast).

As far as I am aware, the two devices are physically the same, so the batteries should be interchangeable. Although I have not seen an i337 so I am not 100% sure.

When comparing stock battery to an extended battery, I think it's important to compare not just the percentage level left + screen-on time but also the total number of hours the phone has been on since unplugged from the wall outlet.
Here is a comparison between the stock 2600mah battery versus the ZeroLemon 7500mah battery at the same 2% battery left state.
Stock (OEM 2600mah, 2% left, 5 hrs 6 mins screen-on time, total runtime of 16 hrs 4 mins):

ZeroLemon (7500mah, 2% left, 8 hrs 28 mins screen-on time, total runtime of 49 hrs 16 mins):
The ZL screenshot above was taken during the first discharge cycle. The GSam battery stats, however, got altered because I flashed the Crossbreeder mod several times (TWRP, reboot), as well as several reboots for the Xposed Nottach module tweaks. The real screen-on time and total runtime on the ZeroLemon should really be a bit more than 9 hrs and 50 hrs and some minutes.
When you compare the number of hours the phone was able to run off the charger until hitting 2%, the ZL battery provided 3x the life.
It's been 11 hours off of a full charge and I'm at 74%. I'd post a screencap of the battery statistics so far but I had to remove the battery to put on an iLoome screen protector (just got it in today).

I'm getting pretty good battery life on bean R2 (I easily average 20+hrs). But no matter which ROM I am on, no matter if I'm getting great or poor battery life, I always start to get on edge once I have dropped below 70%. I start to think, damn there goes battery today. I realize I still have 3/4 of my battery remaining but I just feel this anxiety that my phone is not near full charge.
I let it drain to empty a couple times a month but it becomes almost unbearable when I get down to the last 1/3 of my battery life.
Is it just me?

sounds like you need to turn off percentages. I had this problem until i turned it off. Now i have to go a few steps further to find out what it actually is and that makes me not care as much.
My battery life is HORRIBLE.
Have you tried using an app like GSam Battery Monitor?
I've been able to track down a few issues with that app, including one where I needed to wipe my cache to stop my internal sd card from being continuously scanned.
I always get over 2 hours of screen time over the course of a day. Currently using AOKP Jelly Bean, and it's still the same!

Don't drain your battery. People really need to stop thinking these are the old batteries of yesteryear. Draining your battery will cause it stress and lower it's overall life and charge over time. Draining your battery is causing exactly what you're trying to prevent. Best practice is to let it get to 15-20% and then charge.
On topic, I get anxiety about battery at around 70% too. Mostly because it seems to hit that point pretty fast, but then can last the rest of the day no problem.
Have fun with your new phone and keep a charger on stand by! If you use your phone medium to heavy use you should get to the end of your work day and you can charge it when you get home. Did you get your sd card issue resolved?

Ive found that having a spare battery always charged, along with the spare battery charger handy so I can charge a battery while using my phone, works great for my mental 'battery issues'!
On Synergy 1.3, I have AMAZING battery life! Can usually go 2 days between charges if I wanted to...Unplug the phone at 8am and at midnight, I'm rocking 50-60% still, depending on the day.
GSam Battery Monitor can help find apps that are abnormally draining the battery...But I've found that it too can cause the phone to get stuck in a wake lock...So I don't keep it installed, only use it if I have a weird battery drain issue.
I'm the same way, if not worse. I constantly look at power usage (in miliamps and %/hr). I should just remove all battery widgets and percentages, I almost always have enough battery, just paranoid.

That's weird how they do that.
My phone does the same exact thing with the big 4000+ Hyperion battery. It drops to 70% in what seems like no time at all, then three hours later it is still at 70%. The battery gauge obviously is not very accurate at all.
Right now, my phone has been on for just under 10 hours and says it is at 40%. if I just let it go (I charge it every night) it would run all night and still be at around 40% tomorrow morning.
I am the same way after just installing synergy 1.3 on saturday I have been constantly checking battery percentage. Anytime I change anything I get obsessed with it for a while.
This is what I like to see! Used to not be able to get close to 3 hours screen on.

Battery
I've read about the new batteries and not letting them completely discharge, instead recharging when it gets to 15% or so.My battery life was awful, if I was at 45% or less I needed to plug it in before going to bed. This was a daily thing, I charged my phone every night, Well I forgot the other night and woke up to a dead battery. I plugged the phone in and turned it on while charging. I charged it to 100%. This was 2 mornings ago (not been charged since) and I'm just now a 46% with normal usage (for me). I just thought this was interesting and wonder if anyone else has experienced this or can replicate it.
Battery Life
I'm getting smoking battery life, been tethering a good 2/3 hours and been on the phone and answering email add day and checking this site. I am on 1.5 Synengy, and using the Snapdragon CPU script that was posted in one of the forums. I can post the link as I don't have a large enough post count, however I would search the forum and find the mod and use it.
It's amazing, I'm at 51% battery and have not plugged in all day. I unplugged it at 7:30 am Arizona time and it's 4:30pm AZ time.
Try it, it' works.

Wow, your cell standby was eating you up. Hope you got that fixed.
As far as battery life, I feel mine is average to good. Cell standby and Android OS account for only 9% and 5% of my battery, the other 52% of it used up is screen.. so I think thats pretty good numbers to see.
How is the battery life? From what I have seen its mixed some people are getting good and others are getting terrible. I normally use the screen in total maybe 3-4 hours a day and playing music from google play about an hour total so could I make it through a charge on that?
it will depend on the quality of your phone/data connection mostly, and how you set up your phone. i use purely lte, as i have a great lte connection, and see a minimum of 5-5.5 hours screen on time.

I've had a handful of Android devices and this is the best battery life I have ever experienced.
I've gotten over 5 hours SOT in one day of heavy use.
Over the last weekend, I went 2 days off the charger with 2.5 hours of SOT on LTE only and still had 35% battery remaining when I plugged in for a charge.
I'm running completely stock and rooted.

I get around 2-3 hours of screen time. If you don't mess with your phone and install custom kernels and undervolt and all that, I guess that's that you get. I would say battery is comparable to the iPhone 5s.
This is with sync off and location off btw.
I'm getting excellent battery life as well. On days of light usage I don't even need to plug it in when I go to bed, I just top it up while I get ready for work in the morning. On days when I use it heavily, I still have 30% or more left before putting it down for the night. Screen time varies from 2-5 hours, depending on what exactly I've been doing and how good my signal is. I have no issues at all with the battery performance, it's awesome.
Any bets on when dicecuber will appear in this thread to tell us how absolutely terrible the battery is?
Using Franco kernel, 4.5hrs SOT is a walk in the park. It's better than my SGS4 I came from.

I am cuirous to know as well as I am tired of 2-3 hours of SOT and less then 8 hours of standby. Stopped by a Best Buy that had a Samsung rep with the phone already that he let me play with. In his battery settings it should standby for 2.5 days and SOT of just over 11 hours. To me this seems unreal and the battery graph had sharp spike from 100 to 0 and was for the most part empty.
I'm very curious to see the differences between the Exynos and the Snapdragon versions. Last year's SD 810 was a disaster when it came to battery life.
On my Note 5 get about 36 hrs and 5 hrs SOT. With the Edge 7 and the beefy 3600 mha battery I'm expecting 48 hrs and about 6-7 SOT.
Battery life always sucks the first several days.

1 day standby with 3 hours SOT and % left is quite pathetic imho...I bought an LG G3 as temporary device (sold my S4, pre-orderd s7 edge gold) and it's doing at least 6 SOT. Depending on my usage, I can stretch it to 9.5 SOT over 2 full days!
Right now my LG G3 has been for 2 days and 28min on the battery (after full charge) and it still has 9% battery left, with 8h41min SOT...and 1h19min of phonecalling.
I am still hoping that the S7 Edge won't be lackluster when using it on low-brightness (just as I do on the G3). G3 on auto-brightness only does ~4.5 - 5.5 SOT on a full day. I use my phone too much so it dies usually at midnight.

You're comparing a (very likely ) modded LG G3 with some custom ROM to a stock ROM that he only had for 1-2 days and haven't had time to settle in yet.
And just so you know, when the LG G3 first came out it didn't fare too well in battery life review. So it's definitely not the battery life king that you claim it to be without some heavy hand modding done to it to have it squeeze the amount of SOT you claim.
It's funny how people always pull the my phone can pull a 8 hr SOT blah blah blah.
Aslong as it gets me through a days heavy usage I'll be happy I'm more than happy to have to charge it daily just want to be able to get through a day at work . Checking facebook , internet watching football on a saturday and I'll be happy

Yeah, that's probably all it was. After I synced everything and set up my phone,I recharged it. Now I'm sitting at 50% with 3hrs SOT and I was playing Eternium: Mage and Minions for about 1:15hrs of that. Pretty impressed, personally, compared to my N5X.

Off the charger 3 hours, Android OS at 200mah. Grr
Not particularly impressed with battery here - 37 minutes of SOT on 6 hours off charge and I'm at 71%. WhatsApp Web is running but I haven't done anything intensive.
I'm hoping the battery life picks up on mine over the next few days. 5 hours off charge with a bit of app setup (just configuration, the installs were already done) and about half an hour of photography left the phone at 50%.
I'll give it a little bit more time to settle before I panic and return it for a Pixel XL

I'll give it a little bit more time to settle before I panic and return it for a Pixel XL

This is a very important thread and please all report truthfully. It doesn't do anyone any good when there rouge posts come in with 6 hrs SOT with 20% left. I am on the fence between the Pixel and the XL I was pretty sure the battery life would be suspect with the regular Pixel. Pretty much the same thing that happened with the Nexus 5X and the 6P. 6P was much better. Keep the posts coming please.

I would like to see some screen shots of battery life after a week of use. One day doesn't make the battery life. The battery life is what will be the deciding factor for me. I have the S7 and I'm happy but I'm also a phone hore and I always want the latest and greatest. I ordered the phone from Google and it's not expected until Thanksgiving, but if I hear great things over the next few weeks, I made get it on my Verizon account.

What is a good SOT? I am getting 5-6 hours and that's way better than my 6P (3-4 hours) but people here are implying thats not very good? I am very impressed with my battery, I am an extremely heavy user and would never have expected 5.32 hours on this last charge with wifi on, and also location and Bluetooth on always.

Is that straight through, or over a day? I can get 6 hours SOT if I'm going straight through like on Netflix.
That's over a day, I plugged in with 5℅ left and I didn't charge it overnight but used it heavy last night and this morning...only dropped 1℅ overnight

Maybe has to do with syncing? See if there are any syncing errors in Settings>Accounts. In any case, try a reboot.
Anyone else seeing Android system eat 500mah a day or more

I am at 140 mah after 4hrs since near full charge. So lining up to be ~500 mah after 12-14 hours.
My screen on time is 2.5hrs at 383 mah so far.
Sitting at 68 % battery level.

Wow!
I know it's not real world, but this is looking very good for battery life on the Flip 4.
From what I've seen and heard in 72 hour reviews on YouTube, the battery is much better than the 3. I'm hopeful.

I've gone from from 100% down to 74% in 12 hours so far, for my usage (Light/Moderate).
My Flip 3 would have been down to nearer 50 - 55%.
So far, so good
This is NOT a scientific appraisal, as every user has a different usage scenario.
1 week update.
Battery life has been so much better than my old Flip3 this last week.
My usual stats on the 3 were around 65-75% daily usage.
On the 4, it's showing my average usage is anywhere between 45-50% on a daily basis
Get mine tomorrow. If i get 4-5 hours SOT i would be thrilled.

Give us a review about the battery life!
real world tests show I get atleast 25-30% better batery life as well.
I had the flip 3 since release, battery life was pretty horrible. Have been running this flip 4 for a couple days and I can say the longer lasting battery is very noticable. The claimed better battery life is the main reason I decided to upgrade, along with the great trade in credit
I'm new in this gathering. I have a few inquiries regarding this gathering. These inquiries are displayed underneath:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/magisk-general-jackpotresulttoday-support-discussion.3432382/
My inquiry is about this string. Assuming that you have any data about this string. Kindly statement me and tackle my concern.

I used to get 4-5 hours of screen time on my flip3, but that would end the day on about 15% battery remaining (starting from 85%, as I had it set to stop charging to protect the battery).
I now get 4-5 hours screen time out of my flip4, and still have 40%+ battery left (also starting at 85%).
Still learning patterns etc for the adaptive battery and background apps and suchlike, so it may even get better.

OMG, that is very bad only a 4-hour battery is not enough for a day of usage! I'm getting the phone and hope there will be updates for good battery optimization!

My battery also is so bad
My battery is no better then my S22 which was horrible.
The battery in mine is also horrible. I got it on August 18, only charged it to 100% once, but according to AccuBattery the capacity is just above 3200 mAh (see below).
My primary reason for buying it was its 3700 mAh battery instead of the 3300 mAh in the Z Flip 3.

im getting the same in accubattery
I get between 4-6 SOT with mixed WiFi/LTE usage. Honestly what surprises me is that the Z Flip4 gets me more through the day vs my S22Ultra, but the WQHD+ and > screen explains it.
So the Flip4 would usually give me better SOT vs my S22U.
Battery not as good as my last phone, which was like carrying a brick, but seems good enough. My issue is I like to use wireless charging, and seems takes 12 hours to charge to 100 from 35percent battery. Going to try another brand charger, but current one supports flip 4 max charge rate.
Edit: Found issue, my wall plug was too old, didn't support higher amps out
Better than the flip 3 for me. I only charge to 85 percent before bed, unplug, then use through the day as needed. I'm in my computer for work more than my phone, so I'm not a mobile "power user" by any means. Have more than 20 percent at night when I plug it in usually. If I'm driving then I have it plugged in while I drive, so maybe the accounts for my good numbers.
