Screen on time - Samsung Galaxy S8 Real Life Review

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Samsung Galaxy S8 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Great SOT
Really impressed by the battery life on S8.
Way better than my S7 edge!

Here very satisfied with battery life on the S8+

incredible on mine is only 4h30 SOT max.... whats our setings ?

Resolution on FHD+.That's all.

Gnow ? Location ?

I'm a heavy user, so I don't expect much from the battery unfortunately I have gnow, location, social medias, multiple Gmail accounts... Fml ?

And your SoT with all of that @Majin101 ?

I average about 3 hours SOT. If I'm lucky, maybe 4

Ok thank you for our answer.

7 hours 30 min SOT with 2% left. This phone just doesn't want to go to bed, lol.

Just Wifi,no data connection during this weekend, S8, FHD+ and between 30 and 60% brightness.

Please more information of our setting with our SOT time (location, Gnow, wifi, brightness...)
Thank

4 hours or so. out of 16 to 17

I probably average 6 hours SOT with 13 hours standby and have over 10% battery remaining. This is with sync on for all social media, four email accounts (2 gmail, 2 outlook), location on, wifi on, bluetooth on (connected to my Gear S3), brightness automatic, playing music thru Amazon Prime Music, watching FB and IG videos.

With stock rom? I don't believe you

S6 Battery Life Pretty Good

anyone think the battery of the S6 is actually pretty good? I'm pretty sure I could've gotten 5 hours of screen on time. Battery was at 93 percent during this screenshot.

6 hours SOT is pretty good and will definitely last at least the entire day for me.
It's pretty good

do you even go outside?, i use mine at 50% procent ( factory default) and i dont think its visible in sunlight. for me the phone has exactly the same battery life as an iphone 6, the problem that i noticed is when i use GPS the battery drains like hell.

Usually I'm indoors but even at 50% for outdoors I get the same screen on time. Never used an iPhone so I can't comment on that or the GPS..yet

I am curious IF I get S6 if at about 20 to 25% brightness- enough for indoor use - I would get 5 to 6 hours SOT browsing Internet emails and Youtube occasionally.
If not I have to get Samsung to make S6 Pro at 7.5 mm thick with
3100 Mah Battery !
I Def think my battery is good. I go the entire day moderate usage an have plenty 30 percent battery life left.
Let me put it this way: I live in sunny Los Angeles and the battery drains way faster from 7 am - 6 pm than from 6 pm -2am. The auto brightness sets the brightness too high during daylight hours and it EATS through the battery. Setting the brightness manually with the slider helps quite a bit.
SOT for me in sunny weather 3 - 3 1/2 hours at most
SOT at night 6-7 hours

[Q] Help: galaxy s6 battery drain

I get my galaxy s6 5 days ago.
it's seem that battery is drain very fast
For example from 100% to 57% battery in 4 hr and 54 min.
In this time i talk 1hr, 2hr of screen usage.
I use WhatsApp and nothing else just average usage.
That does not make sense
Does anyone have an idea or a solution?
Thanks

2hrs screen time 1hr calls and rest of time whatsapp is more than enough to get your battery down to 57%
i get a battery life of 1 day but my screen time is 3 hrs and hardly a few minutes of calls
but in continuous usage the battery life shouldnt be more than 8 hours ! Its totally normal!

The battery Thread--Post your battery stats here

still patiently a.k.a. biting my finger nails and going crazy for my pure x. i though of starting this thread to post our battery status. at this point i am really worried because this is basically the same hardware as the G4 and that one is not know for its longevity.
gotta keep an eye on this one.
hope someone can test it with greenify soon.

4 hours SOT on first drain... not bad. Keep us posted on the next few charge cycles.
also the exact timings if you would. i.e. when did u plug it off the charger and when did it reach the 1%?
and if it is not much of a burden and since you own the nexus 6, how is the new charger? Motorola said this the fastest quick charger ever

Does the phone get hot when using the turbo charger?
4 hours sot on WiFi is prey terrible. There has to be something eating battery. Maybe some of their junk left running like the voice assistant or the front sensors. Maybe their stock kernel is woefully inefficient. That is pretty bad sot on WiFi. I hope you had a wake lock or something from an app or brightness at max
4 hours from the very first discharge is not in the least "terrible" one bit honestly, especially considering that it's a QHD. I can't manage to pull 4 hours sometimes from my HTC One M8 that doesn't have QHD, that's on a custom ROM and kernel, AND that has a significantly smaller screen than the Moto X Pure. And the battery is only 400 mAh less than what the Moto has.

i WISH I got more than 4 hours SOT on my OnePlus. Some of it is the average to poor TMob signal I get though. That's what I'll have to compare to with the moto x - which arrives today

I can get 4 hours sot on my one plus on lte easily. Heavy web browsing usage. Solely on WiFi it might be close to 8 hours but I'd say at least 6 minimum.
4 hours sot for WiFi, if accurate, is a huge issue and would probably cause me to cancel. I'll wait for more accurate readings and confirmation obviously but if true that is terrible. That would put LTE SOT at around 2.5 hours.
Could also be carrier related. Those CDMA radios could be sucking juice.
I average about 4hrs on my nexus 6 unplugged from 8:30am to 11pm at night. Everything is enabled. sync, google now, location, bluetooth, wifi. If I can do about the same or better with the moto x pure I'd be content.

Everyday is mixed usage for me but I'm on WiFi probably 11 to 12 hrs of that time. Drive home and lunch time is when I'm on mobile. Weekends I'm mostly away from work but its not too much different as T-Mobile is strong in Houston. I just came back from Seattle and signal there is bad so I was definitely hurting a bit more.
Words with friends Tapatalk fitbit chrome browsing texting and hangouts chat google plus and photos make up the majority of my app activity. I use a lot of the Google now voice activation features as well for texting.

Well if you're going to compare it to other phones don't expect it to be the best, of course there is better. Like you said as long as it gets you through the day then its cool.

Heavy use endurance

Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the Samsung Galaxy S9+'s battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
About 3-4h of heavy use, about the same of what you can expect from the old s8+. I'm sure you can tweak that a bit when you fiddle with power saving modes and display resolution.
The S9+ doesn't have the best battery life. If you expect this phone to last you all day on a heavy usage you will be disappointed. If you need something that lasts all day under heavy use then the Mate 10 pro would be ideal. Another option would be the pixel XL 2.
I think the battery life is pretty good on the S9+. I spent the day on wifi but the screen on time in on par to when I had the Pixel 2 Xl.

depends on what you are using it for. in my experiences, bluetooth is a drop in the bucket when compared to screen brightness and background syncing/processes
Just wondering. To the guys with good battery life: Which processor are you running? The Exynos is terrible...

Coming from a pixel 2 XL I completely disagree. I averaged at least 2 hours more screen on time then my pixel ever did at its best in my standby time is better than the pixel. I didn't buy it for that reason but it's a nice extra

yes this is a normal phenomenon if you use the phone continuously without a changeover or just a minimum break. nothing new under the sun. try not to use the phone and your results. This can normally be achieved at Exynos at any time.
A request to all: whoever posts battery endurance, plz mention the following :
1. Exynos version or Snapdragon version.
2. The entire lists of tweaks such as
applying of black theme , wifi Scanning off or not, data/wifi both on or one is off, nearby device Scanning is on or off, whether wifi power saving on or off, how many email accounts r in use and how many are in sync and what all are in sync, gallery etc r in sync to cloud or not, location method is in high accuracy/battery saving/GPS only, "improve accuracy" is on or off, if any power saving is enabled, "smart stay" and other measures in advanced feature settings are on or off, if any package disabler or manually disabling stuff via adb etc.....
3. Single or dual sim used.
4. Show the screenshot in full using "scroll capture".

Maybe, i dont really know how to measure it correctly. Just rooted mine today ? will try to measure with root if you can teach me how to measure correctly. Before root, usually get 7-9hr depends on my usage w or w/o gaming.
9 hrs of heavy usage . Battery flat in 12 hours.

how is battery life for you P3 users?

hi guys, would like to know if you are happy with the battery life or not.. can you get a couple of days battery life with moderate usage and 4-5 hours sot maybe? that's what I use to get with my xz2c... i know experience may vary from people to people and usage etc but with moderate usage it should be pretty clear what I mean... (messaging, browsing, emails, no games, and such)
and AOD turned on please!

I rarely look at sot but in general, after 4 days, the battery life is perfectly fine. Not stellar but I haven't hit 50% yet after all day use. I'd say easy 5 hours sot simply because I use Strava which is a battery hog while biking and running. With my P2 I'd come home with about 75% or less. With the P3 it's mid 80s and I still last the whole day without a charge. I tend to look at overnight drain AOD but face down so I guess that doesn't count, but I'm either getting 0.5% / hour or 0.6. On my P2 it was about 1.2% / hour. I'll check sot today and edit.

thank you very much sir for your reply so appreciate!
if someone can post also the overnight drain with airplane mode ON and AOD always ON too (that's how I would use it at night), that would be fantastic!
I got just over 5 hours of screen on time yesterday with heavy usage. 6:30AM to 11:30PM.
Adaptive screen brightness set to favor higher brightness. AOD enabled (this turns off when in a pocket or face down on a table, BTW). No gaming. On Wifi for ~70% of the day. Did not top off the charge at any point.
5 to 6 hr on lte. 6 to 7 on wifi. Like the pixel 2

I have only had it for a couple days, but I would never expect it to outlast an Xperia device. Those things go forever! I use LTE all day at work and then WiFi in the evenings at home. The phone stays on vibrate mode from 8am-5pm, and is primarily issued for occasional texts and checking XDA. I leave work with about 70% battery.
YouTube handles the rest of the load from 6pm-10pm. I don't track SOT but the battery percentage drops below 20% regularly with this routine.
Saturday when I put it on the charger at bedtime, it was at 51% with 4 hrs & 10 mins SOT. I thought that was outstanding.
I have super light usage and I get about 4 days. I didn't take a screenshot sadly.
Better than pixel 2 was...6.5hr sot on lte and 7 to 8 on wifi

That is normal. All of these high sot numbers are on WiFi only with special use cases, probably no cellular calls either.

I'm happy for those getting great battery life.
On mine it is definitely worse than my pixel 2 with the same usage.
I can get maybe 4.5 hours screen on time before it goes dead. Mixed LTE and wifi usage.
Hopefully it will improve after some updates.

My battery life is also noticably worse than the P2.. was running flash kernel on it and I know the P3 has a higher resolution screen but still.. If usually end the day with 70% left on my P2 whereas now I'm left with about 50%. All good signal LTE.

Lol, then you have no worries because you are clearly a light user. ?
It's still early days since I'm doing all the set up still which means more screen time than normal, but the fast charge is ridiculously good, even when connected to a PC.
Battery life is okayish. With normal use like browsing, some videos, light gaming, fb, insta, WA..etc it will go through till the end of the day. I get around 4-4.5 hours of SOT with WiFi, AOD off. I'll test it out more, probably.
