I bought a 2nd hand galasy s6(Sm-G920F). If i use Wifi and browse the Internet, use fb or any social media it consumes about 20% of my battery in an hour, even if i write a message with my wifi switched off it will still consume like 7-10% in 30 min.
I needed to confirm is s6 battery that bad or is there something wrong with my device?
Thanks in advance!

I have been using samsung galaxy 3 for last 3 weeks. As a newbie as a android user I am really confused about battery back up I am getting. I am generally getting 1-1.5 days back up, with moderate use of, 5-10 shorter phone calls, 3-4 hours of surfing, GPS always off, background data/auto sync off and switching it on only I connect to APN. More over I feel that I am not getting the proper battery indicator reading also. It shows battery is almost over and shuts off, and when I switching it on it shows 30% is still remaining. This is utterly confusing. I dont know anything about rooting phones and all. So anyone there to help this layman?? Please. Thanx in advance.

the battery of our phone lasts that much only even mine lasted for 1.5 days
lot of reviews say that our battery lasts only 2days with normal use
yea... battery lasts for a day or 2 only.. android uses much power.. so its normal..
battery LIFE!!
Yeah battery lasts 1.5 days for heavy usage..
you can boost performance by installing juice defender like apps from market.
also by underclocking and undervolt you can save some power.
for battery calibration follow this, it helped me to boost my battery life as it eliminates the so called memory effect.

With your usage, I don't think that's so bad at all

This sounds quite normal to me. Facebook may be a big drainer. If you want to investigate further, try BetterBatteryStats, but i don't think you will see something unusual.

Hello all, I just bought a new note 2 and I know it has an extra ordinary battery but the thing is whenever I use the telephone surfing web on wifi checking facebook and twitter the battery drains with a rate of 1% each 5 mins maybe less. I've seen most post s about the battery and unchecked all the things I dont need that drains battery but still the batter drains fast.
I long press the home button to make sure that the application im using is the only active application and it is but the battery keeps draining especially from 100 to 90 doenst take an hour maybe less and it is starting to annoy me alot now that the battery keeps draining like that.
Is there a way to test it or something I've seen alot of posts of battery lasting 1day plus mine doesnt do that.
Please if someone can help me.

Hi everyone,
I bought a Galaxy S4 GT19500 few days ago. I didn't put an SMS yet to this mobile, so I am using the WiFi to connect to the internet. However, I noticed that the phone consumes a huge amount of battery. I used the stopwatch how much time it takes for the battery to decrease by 1% when browing internet only using WiFi. The time it took was 3 mintues and few seconds only !!
Given that: GPS off, Bluetootch off, Air Gesture off, S-Beam off, eye detection (I forgot it's name) off ..etc and most of the smart features
And brightness was auto, power saving mode was on and from time to time I clear running apps in background.
Please help me, I want to know is this amount of battery consumption normal ??
Thanks in advance,

The apps you have installed could also be a factor. Try using Better Battery Stats to see what is keeping your phone awake and draining battery

Thanks for the reply. When I go to settings->more->battery, the stats show that the screen cosumes most of the battery 27%. However, the level of I screen I've chosen was almost the lowest !!!
Please any other suggestions, any S4 users can share their experience to tell me if what I am experiencing considered NORMAL?

Percentages are good but actual time is better. How much screen on time do you get in a typical charge and how long does your phone last in a typical day?

Hi
The moment I disconnect my charger (when the battery is fully charged) my S22 Ultra battery starts to drain. It may seem normal but I think it's fast!
I wonder how long should it take for my battery to drain from 100 to 5 per cent when I am working with the Internet, taking photos and calling.
How about stand by?
I'm a bit concerned.
Thanks for your response.

It depends on your background processes (usually social networks). Take a look around the forum, there are already a few topics about the battery optimization and ways to improve it.

Thirty minutes ago my battery was fully charged (100%) and so far I have only turned on my WiFi checking my emails, My battery is 95 right now. I Just want to know if that's okay.
I will check the forum for sure.

It happens to me like you. I don't play, I almost don't use social networks (Facebook for example from chrome)............ My use is very normal, whatsapp, telegram and some photos. If you find a solution quote me or mention me please

Hello! The same happens to me! Just after unplugging it goes from 100 to 97% very fast and then it looks like normal. But once I reach 20% it decreases very fast. 5% is like dead. Can you pls tell me if you found a solution or maybe you changed the phone meanwhile. I used Accu Battery Pro and it shows me 87%, 4204 mah/ 4855 mah but I donna what to think about it. Should I consider an official battery changing. Would it make any difference? Thanks in advance!

You can try using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm.pro (there's also a free version) and enabling all stats using adb (it's not complicated) Then you will see if there's any background process keeping cpu alive for too much time.
If everything is normal regarding background process and wakelocks, you may have a faulty battery, but I highly doubt it since it's much more uncommon than software related battery drain.
