I am not too pleased about idle battery drain.
Overnight, about 8h it consumes about 3%-5%. Sometimes more than 10%, if the device doesn't go in deep sleep for whatever reason..
If commute, it takes more battery (maybe sensors, switch to mobile data, etc).
About 20% in 9hours. wifi most of the time with about 1h hour on mobile data. And movement in pocket about 20-30mins.

My experience with idle drain has been good overall. Getting around 0.5% per hr

My idle drain is horrendous. I'm getting around 20% drain over night (7h sleep) with nothing enabled but WiFi. And that's with Greenify. I'm thinking of rooting and flashing the EX Kernel, but wanted to wait for an obviously outstanding major update before doing so.

Android System, Phone Services + Google Services, but only if WiFi/data is on. If they are off the battery life is perfect.

Battery was good until yesterday, 8hrs SOT circa. Suddenly battery starts draining and can I barely reach 2,30 SOT. Any idea? No apps showed in battery page, the only app I downloaded yesterday was Textra SMS (Beta), but it's very strange that it can drains so much.

For me Chrome was a big culprit for battery drain. Try to delete the cache and the storage of the app. You can as well disable and it and re enable it. That should be enough. Anyway, Chrome is a battery hog. I am thinking about switching to Opera or Firefox. Any recommendation for browsers?

I use Firefox with the add-on 'Dark Background and Light Text'. I have it set to turn the background of all pages to true black.

2% over night (7 hours) pretty pleased. But it was even better on OP3 when the drain over night was 0-1%

I'm on RR with no GAPPS and lost about 1.5% in about 8.5hrs of not being used (sleep + getting ready in the AM)

I have TASKER, and have set airplane mode to come on 8pm - 3am.
Currently getting roughly 2-3% drain in that "airplane mode" time

What the? Do you have gestures enabled (eg: double tap to wake)?
In my opinion it consumes too much.. one time i got about 3% drain in about 8-9h idle with wifi on and no commute.

That's why i hate android idle drain. A never-ending issue.
SOT only 34 mins, 1h mobile data, the rest on wifi.
I've disabled gestures, location history, no google fit, etc etc

Not bad here. About .3% per hour overnight. So about 2% overnight. That's on 4G as I rarely ever have my phone on WiFi. I also have email at to push (2 accounts) and I usually turn off the sync stuff in my Google account. Things like app data, calendar, contacts and the rest. I just sync when I make changes like adding a contract I then toggle the contacts on then off kind of thing. No need to let it sync all day and night for nothing imo.

I just have that drain when location is set to "high accuracy". When its set to "battery saving" everthing seems fine.

I don't know what's wrong with my device/apps. Several times now i had a standby drain in around 7 hours of 30%+. I didn't plug my phone in overnight because of Dash charging, when I went to bed, the battery was at 37%. The next morning I overslept massively and completely missed my shift because my battery died over night. This is with airplane mode on during 75% of the night. The highest drain in battery settings was displayed for "Android System" with around 12% or so, but that was with the last day counted in. I feel like the battery drain stats in settings are completely unreliable...
Except from that I get normal battery life during the day though, although during the first few days standby drain was higher than screen on drain...

Yeah man you need to download accubattery or something to monitor the drain. That's ridiculous. And yeah I've been kinda confused about the stock battery stats as well. It seems to tell you nothing.
I have noticed a lot more battery drain since the 911 update a few days ago. I was getting 7ish sot now I'm under 5hrs. I'll bet I'm not the only one who noticed it though. It'll be fixed don't worry.

I had AccuBattery installed at first but it didn't give me any meaningful insights so I uninstalled it a few weeks later.
I normally only get around 3 hours of SOT, but I'm not into mobile gaming or YouTube so that is normal...

I notice significant drain in idle after the 4.5.6 update last week. Android system seems to be the culprit, but not sure what's process under this is actually causing the problem.
All radios on, and 2 mail accounts syncing.

10% drop in 8 hours in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgtpvkGRr4k
Can anyone confirm? Does standby suck?

Sleeps well. I'm 21 hours and at 65% off charger. 2.7 hours screen on time.
Deep sleep cpu speed is 76%
Make sure you don't have things eating your battery with screen off

My standby has been great. Usually 5-8 percent drop in a 5-7 hour window. Way better than my V30; that thing would eat up 15-20% every night.

Mine has been at 3% drop per 7 hours I'm asleep. I don't know if it has anything to do with DND being on but I was also getting the same drop with my P2XL.

I have been noticing this everyday for the past week. And almost every single time I see about 4-5% drain in about 8-9 hours which is pretty good.
This is on WiFi. So if you're on mobile data there might be a slightly higher drain.

Current status: In deep sleep for 86% of screen off time.
I've also noticed 4-5% drain in about 8-9 hours on WiFi and DND. I'm happy.

Only lost 3% overnight, including picking the phone up and using it a few times.

Not on wifi mine went from ~40% to 3% also my alarm didn't go off. Alarm was set at 545 woke up at 630 and when I picked up my phone to check the time that's when the alarm decided to go off. Nice feature ignoring alarms to save battery.

Is it good enough?

My battery stats are messed up. Battery % goes up even when I'm not charging.

How long have you been using your phone and what's the lowest battery percentage you've hit?
Sometimes it helps to let the software recalibrate the battery by charging the phone to 100 and going all the way down to 0 and then charging back to 100.

I generally lose about 1% every 2 hours overnight. About 1% every hour in the day (When wake my phone up every now and then)

Is it one plus 6t bro?......actually last night my screen on time is 8 hr 17min or smthing.......bt not this much like urs .......what features u disabled to save the battery?

Light use on this thing is crazy. And by light use I mean still using it for over 2 hours a day I can still eek out 2 days without charging.

I'm really unhappy with my battery drain. I see about 2% per hour when I set the phone down and sleep.
I have a Gear S3 paired, two sim cards, and email notifications for about 8 email accounts. But other phones I've had would drain 1% or less per hour under the same conditions.

That's a lot of drain right there. What other phones drained less with 8 accounts syncing and a paired watch?

Mine also has worsen with the new update, and the fingerprint sensor also got slower than the previous build.

standby about:
1-1,5 % per hour without ambient display
2,5-3% per hour with ambient display
standby drain is quite bad, LG V30 has half consumption in standby

MIUI 10
High battery drain in backgound too.
I usually lose 10% in 8 hours during night.

Standby drain is high; significantly higher than my other phones. On average, my phone drains about 1.8% per hour with AOD turned off. My Pixel 3 XL drains 0.5 to 0.8% per hour with similar settings and the same SIM card.

If you are running Global rom it could because it's trying to connect to multiple networks. Maybe both European and chineese network.

Download EX Manager and put it on Powersaver Mode. 9h and I just lose 10% of battery while watching BBT 5 episode and played 1 album to get me asleep. Lol

Hi there. 8 hours of sleeping time drained 1%.
I'm using Xiaomi.eu version.
With Global EEA it drained about 4% in 8 hours also

It drains about 1% while asleep 8hrs on airplane mode.

for me it drained up to 2% per hour.
I could reduce it to 0.5% per hour just by turning off bluetooth, maybe that helps you as well

In Global dev ROM my mi 9 was not entering sleep mode at all, it was consumed at least 2% per hour.
I'm now on Xiaomi.eu and it sleeping great.

Global Dev (stock kernel) gives me less than 0.5 % / h battery drain at night. Network and WiFi always running, no airplane mode. Just Bluetooth usually is switched off since I only need it in the car. No snake-oil apps for 'better battery live' or similar battery voodoo.
Cheers

For me mit official stable it is a little more than 1% per hour during night, mobile-stand-by as well as android system are draining the most battery.
Waiting for Unlock in 5 days.

Xiaomi.eu doesn't really improve battery life for me. Androidsystem drains about 20% and I have no idea why. I lose about 10 percent at night (sleeping around 6h), so that's pretty much considering the other reports... also I only get like 3-3,5h SOT, because of the drainage. Can't figure out why, though.

Hey there have Battery Drain too. i have the Transparent Edition with Global Rom for me to use in EU with German Language. It is unlocked and has the Mi Recovery. Can i only flash with Mi Tool the Xiaomi.eu rom or will i have to flash custom Recovery?!

I'm on latest ROS, last night ~8 hours standby + airplane mode = 1%

Global stable official, i get 1% drain on 6-7 Hours, signal on so i can be called, wi fi off

MIUI 10.2.9.0, everything is on (wi-fi etc.). Mifit is permanently connected to my BIP, kate mobile is connected to VK. 4% for 8 hours this night.

yeah. the standby drain is not good at all
lost 3% in 5 hours ,with powersaving mode on(scheduled in settings to turn on between 23:00-07:00)
wifi off, bt off, mobile data off...
only WCDMA/LTE enabled
latest global rom

Its because the phone is set to scan for chinese network by default (TD-SCDMA), even though Its a global version.

That's NOT true. Switching to LTE/WCDMA give the same battery drain.
That's only the preferred network.

Not impressive, I lose about 1% every 30 min without using the phone :/ (Exynos)

This is pretty disappointing it looses 10 - 15% of battery overnight doing absolutely nothing.

I am losing about 2%/hour doing absolutely nothing.

My S10e loses almost nothing if I turn things off.
Airplane overnight = less than 1 percent
with AOD it loses a bit, 4-5

Excuse me guys, but its not true that the phone does nothing. It communicates permanently with the antenna signals and the network, so its absolutely normal that it drains battery. Every phone drains battery in standby, even when they are on airplane mode (although in this mode the drainage is much much lower)
If you want yout phone to actually do nothing, you have to turn it off.

Yea... no. My two year old Oneplus 5t, with nearly 100 apps installed, only drops 3 - 6% overnight with 4g on.

I havent said anything about the draing % being too high or not. I said that it is not true that the phone does nothing while being in standby. Which is a fact.

I use Bixby Routines to automatically turn airplane mode on during the time I'm asleep and it went from draining 15% to only 5%.

Mine is the international dual sim Exynos version. I just got an OTA update about 3 days ago. I was also having pretty bad standby battery drain. 15% in 8 hours. Last night it only dropped 4% in 8 hours, which is pretty amazing.

Thanks for the reply. I'm downloading it now. Hope it fixes mine. I know there are always bug when first launched. If things aren't straightened out within 6 months I'm going back to pixel once the 4 comes out.

AOD: OFF
Wifi: OFF
Data: ON all the time
Bluetooth: sometimes on sometimes off, I don't notice significant drain when it's on.
I literally had significant better battery life from one day to the next without doing anything. However I have had most of the useless apps disabled since day one, (Facebook, Bixby, Samsung stuff, etc.) I also have wifi and bluetooth scanning off. It is ON by default
Edit:
You should also follow some of these settings

New firmware ASD5 is out, maybe this will fix some draining.

I found deep sleep solution.
My s10e exynos (april firmware) was able to sleep only 10% of time.
After fix it can sleep 95+% (CPU Spy)
8 hours = 5% battery.
Open file “system/build.prop”

I dont see any standby drain. When I keep data on (locaion,wifi and bluetooth off) in the night it drained only 2-3 % battery. with data off/location/wifi/bluetooth off it was 100% in the morning.
But I have a different issue, When I am using the phone, I see a drain now which was not there initially. Android system is draining most of the power. I usually used to get 9+ hrs SOT with 2 days usage. but now Both have dropped below to 1&1/2 day and around 8 hours SOT.. Tried all the things found on net, but it didnt helped.

Same things happens with after update. Before the update it works for 2 days but now a it runs for 1 & half day max.

I did the update too, so you think it caused by update? Is samsung deliberately doing it as everyone suspects of them doing that they slow down the devices or its just a bug they didn't realize?

Maybe it's a bug.
All tests are under airplane mode, no cell signal.
WIFI ON with "battery saver" OFF takes 0.5% per hour drain.
WIFI OFF with "battery saver" ON takes <0.1% per hour drain.
BUT !!!
WIFI ON and "battery saver" ON at the same time, the standby drain will up to 1.3~2% per hour.
I have test this for more than 10 times, trying to avoid any other cause.
Finally I'm sure that "battery saver" mode will cost more standby drain if WIFI is ON. （ yeah, that sounds ridiculous
But I don't know why.

The battery performs well when in use (discharges at the rate of 10% per hour Heavy Gaming 'CoD: mobile', which is quite good I guess) but when the phone is idle, the battery drains quite fast about 2% per hour and the battery discharges about 10-15% over the night.
Losing 10-15% battery is not normal for a phone at all, also 10% of a 6000mAh battery is quite huge.
This problem persists. Any help is welcome!
EDIT :
I have uploaded the battery usage stats screenshots on google drive, check the link. I turn off WiFi and clear recent apps before going to bed but still, the battery drains heavily 15% over 6-7 hours.
CAN'T share the link because xda won't allow posting URLs here as I'm new to XDA forum
