If you use the device without too much idle/commute you can get real pretty SOT on wifi.
Display at about 15-30% with auto brightness.
Chrome, YouTube, twitter, facebook, reddit, etc.
awesome lol
all wifi? can you post all battery details?
I only get 4 hours of screen on time with Greenify
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.

did you download the 911 patch? if so there are users reporting drainage issues over on the official oneplus forums. reporting that they drain 20-30% overnight when the phone is in airplane mode.

I'm getting amazing battery life out of this thing. Regularly hit over 6hrs screen on time when I'm out and about, and at home on WiFi it's approaching 10hrs! That's with everything switched on and no battery saving measures applied
+1, battery life is pretty good. Using phone for around 4 - 5 hours SOT watching video, with WIFI,4g and bluetooth on - using bluetooth headset - and goes from around 94% to 66%....
Not too shabby in this day and age. I have other phones that, with that usage, would be in the 10 - 20% range after that usage.
Got my OP5 rooted and i want to install a dark theme + battery safer.
Did some research but the stuff on playstore has tons of negative feedback that it is crap and doesn't work.
So how do you do it?
I'm already using the systems own dark mode, but i want to utilize the maximum and use a dark theme that makes everything pure black.
I read in the S8 forums, that the phone automatically doesn't light up pixels that are black, is it the same for the OP5? Is a "turn off pixels" app even needed?
Thanks for any help.
Usually my screen reach over 6 hours on.
I always have the manual brightness.

I got a close to 9 hour SOT, with mobile data, bluetooth continously on.
Completed the whole 5th season of person of interest on this phone with 12% juice still left. [emoji3][emoji3]

3h 13m SOT with 68% remaining = about 10 hours SOT.
This is Running xXx's NoLimits ROM with no GApps active.

I suggest you to go for custom ROM like Resurrection Remix Unofficial. It is OMS so theming is so easy peasy. I had so much trouble with theming OOS. Lots of time I got stuck on bootloop which can't even substratum_rescue.zip solve. And RR also now has OOS camera, so I will highly suggest you go and try it. It is battery friendly as well. Especially when you use Lightning kernel + spectrum app with battery mode.

I was wondering if somebody could share his/her experience with the Mi 4c regarding battery life.
As I am a heavy user and don´t want my phone to die on me on 2pm I´d really apreciate it if somebody could tell me how good the battery life is on this phone.
I'm also a heavy user and i'm happy with the batterylife on MIUI. I get the same as i got with my Sony Z1 Compact, and those Compact phones are known for their good batterylife. I mean if you come from a phone with 5000 mAh battery then you might be dissapointed i think
No, its really good. I had other phones which i had to recharge sometimes more than 2 times a day, but the Mi4c brings me through the day
So yesterday I had about 6 hours of screen on time, and it was off the mains from 8:30 am to 1 am, i.e. 14.5 hours. Three to four hours of 3G, half an hour of GPS tracking, and otherwise mainly chatting and browsing and using a few apps. This beat my every expectation, my previous phones would last barely 10 hours with only 4 hours of screen on time.
Edit: this is with Cyanogenmod. MIUI didn't seem to cut me such slack, especially not when Google Sync was on (which always timed out because I'm in China where Google is blocked).
---------- Post added at 03:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 AM ----------
I did notice, however, that once the phone goes dead because of an empty battery, it won't start until you actually charge it for a few minutes first. Or it may start and die straight away. My Nexus 5 would always still start with an empty battery.
Gsmarena battery life test
Gsmarena did run few test on Mi4C. Here are the results:
Endurance rating: 52h
Talk time: 18:31h
Web browsing: 9:32h
Video Playback: 10:47h
For comparison (LG G2, Xiaomi Mi 4, LG G4:
LG G2 (3000mAh)
Endurance rating: 81h
Talk time: 25:15h
Web browsing: 11:42h
Video Playback: 9:28h
Xiaomi Mi 4 (3080mAh)
Endurance rating: 68h
Talk time: 18:15h
Web browsing: 9:31h
Video Playback: 7:00h
LG G4 (3000mAh)
Endurance rating: 54h
Talk time: 16:40h
Web browsing: 7:54h
Video Playback: 7:23h
Web browsing and video playback times are very good on Mi4C but endurance rating is rather low. That means that Mi4C consumes quite a bit battery in standby. However that is easily fixed with couple tweaks. It seems that Mi4C have good battery life :good:
CM12.1 battery use attached. It's weird that (as I've said on a reddit review) standby battery use is pretty low for me, though the meter does seem to drop quickly when I use the phone. I think the battery might need calibrating, but it seems good enough got my needs!
For those who can't see the attached screenshots: 16hrs off charger, 2hrs 38mins SOT, mixture of browsing reddit, chrome and MX Player
I'm considering to get the mi4c to replace my Nexus 5 just for the battery life.
Is it worth to lose NFC, wireless charging and LTE (no 800 band)?

I think these questions can only be answered by yourself...for me, NFC is not important, i never used it in my other phones. And do you need wireless charging when you get through the day with one charge? Also, i personally dont use LTE because i find 3G is fast enough on a phone.
Over all those things i really prefer battery life. I once had a Sony Xperia V, with very poor battery life and i had to switch to 2G when i was home and used WiFi, or turn WiFi off when i was outside. And much more, just to save a bit off battery. Then i bought a Sony Z1 Compact and i didnt had to do all those things, which was really a joy. Just leave everything on and get through the day. And its the same with my Mi4c. No need for battery savers, tasker or such things anymore
But like i said, you might prefer other things.
You guys are using the unoficial cm 12.1 build or which cm rom ? could you pls post a link to the rom please? i am using the developer miui rom and the battery is very bad

Yes, the unofficial CM12.1, its the only one at the moment
One last thing about this cm 12.1 rom, how is the camera quality ? and with the miui 5.10.22 developer rom i am experiencing a weird issue with messenger, when i get a new message and i open to see it, if i already had messenger opened i dont see the new message, i have to click the back button to go to friend list, then it like refreshes, and if i go back to the chat, i can see the message.
Thanks

I was really surprised about the camera quality. All CM ROMs on other phones had a very poor picture quality compared to the stock roms. And camera is very important for me. Our unofficial CM12.1 has the same picture quality like MIUI in my opinion. No idea how the dev made this happen, but its great
Regarding the messenger, maybe its an app problem and not a MIUI problem? I don't know...
Thanks a lot, I am really thinking about flashing, eventhough I have always been afraid to flash unoficial builds, since I dont understand how they make them without the kernel sources. But the battery life is so horrible on the developer rom
So far, battery life is respectable for me as a second phone. 1.5 days off the charger, a bit less then 4.5 hours SOT, mostly YouTube, web browsing, offline game. Stock stable chinese MIUI 7 ROM, rooted and greenify.

Totally agree and this with CM, where normally battery life is bad
guys battery life is special bad when in options of wifi is on scanning always available.
i use miui xiaomi.eu rom number 5,10,22 and i finde it best at the moment.
1.58minutes of gps 38min of talk 4g on all day about 30min browsing and on the end of the day stil 35% about 2h of sot.
My battery life is pretty good. Regardless of whatever I do during the day, I can easily squeeze 4 hours SoT from the phone. My battery depletes the fastest whenever I listen to music while keeping 4G on the entire time as my phone is rarely in deep sleep, and idle battery usage becomes higher than screen usage. This is actually one of the more annoying issues; my music player seems to drain quite a bit of the battery as MediaServer is always on even when I'm not playing music - the app icon stays in the notification bar unless I actually terminate the app.
The best I got out of the phone was, according to the attached images, 5 hours SoT at 39% battery. This was with WiFi on the entire time, screen to about half brightness and middling reception quality.
I'm currently running the 5.10.8 MIUI EU weekly build. Quite interested in flashing CM12.1 when the bugs get cleaned up.

Yes, I use all of those. Keep in mind this is pretty abnormal for my phone. Typically, it would be around 3.5-4 hours of SoT at 40% battery, so you shouldn't get your hopes up too much. From memory, all I was doing was Reddit and some web surfing, with Whatsapp, Gmail and Messenger set to sync while phone was asleep. If I were listening to music, the battery drain would've been quite a bit more. And there were wakelocks but they don't really show on the stat screen.

I have a problem with CM and Mokee..The battery drops 2% for time (Instead of 1) very often..And i can do only 3 h of active display..In idle the battery doesn't drop down a lot..It can stay also an hour on 100%, but then when I turn on the screen it drops 3-4%..Can anyone help me to solve this problem?
Friends,
I'm currently using H990DS from Taiwan, normally the phone lasts until 5pm (about 2h30 - 3h screen on). This happened with all my previous devices with promised good battery life like Note 4 or G2. I only installed standard apps like facebook (i know it drained battery), instagram, flipboard...
So yesterday, I did something that today, the battery improved greatly. It's currently at 49% battery with 3h15min screen on, of which over 2h45min of Clash Royale (over wifi)!
So you can try this and maybe it will improve your battery life. I know it work for me, not sure about everyone else.
Step 1: Go to https://myaccount.google.com/dashboard
Step 2: On Audio, may be you see the Audio history is Enable. Please disable it. What it does I believe is to turn off Ok Google detection.
Let's report if you have better battery after.
I will try it. Thanks
Will try as well.
I'll give it a go as well.
I'll try too, it's here to disable btw https://myaccount.google.com/activitycontrols

Day 1: No obvious change, at 50% with about 2 hrs of screen on time, just like before. Although my use case may be odd, since no matter what I've done by the end of the day my phone idle takes anywhere between 10-20% in the battery usage menu. Anyone else seeing this?

I suggest you update all the apps, clear the cache in Smart Cleaning. Then restart the phone.
If you it doesn't get better, I think you should remove the battery for 2 mins. plug it back, charge to 100%, use the phone till 0% then charge to 100% again to see if it gets better

Already done all of this previously. I guess I will try once more.
disabled it now, i'll test it tomorrow and will give my feedback in the next few days
So it's been over a week I think since the last post, I find that under my usage (medium to heavy) I get around 4 hours screen on time consistently. In the picture shown, I had around 55% battery with about 2 hours screen on time. However, what I don't get is the phone idle time battery usage. Just look in the picture and you will see what I mean. Furthermore, for half of the day, my phone is in airplane mode, which makes it even stranger. If anyone else is getting something like this or has any suggestions/requires further info, please let me/us know.

You have been using the phone for 15 hrs or more. Yes you used it for 2 hours SOT but for 13 hrs it was idle, that is why phone idle is the biggest battery drain imho. Anyway try using the mart cleaner, it may help reduce idle time battery usages.
Sot is a horrible reference point. You could be using maps in with the screen off, streaming music with the screen off. There's all kinds of things while the screen is off that can consume battery. If your phone can get you through most of the day without a charge you're good. Stop putting so much emphasis on sot..

My point was that Android 7.0 nougat and updated doze have been giving people great standby times, like 1 or two percent gone overnight, without airplane mode too. Compared to my experience, that seems massively different. I was simply wondering if what I had was normal for my LG V20.

Also, for most of the day, my phone is in airplane mode, just sitting in my pocket(I would say about 8 hours of the day or maybe a bit more or less), and the pictures show are similar to what I do every day, and I also use airplane mode the same way every day.

Do you have volte enabled? Lg ims is volte. If you have greenify and see lg ims waking your phone 400 times then that is your issue.
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 Honor 9 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
great device, get 5hrs of SOT under moderate usage
Wow, 8.5h sot is a lot! Maybe I need to check the battery guide out. On the other hand I was playing with the Honor 9 all day because I have it the second day and got 7 hours sot with 5% left. More than enough for me normally!
So, how does it compare to honor 8, is the additional 200mAh makes any noticeable difference?!
That's all I need to know
I think the battery life of the Honor 9 is ok but could be better. I am used to Samsung devices with OLED display technology where you get better SOTs. In my case with my Honor 9 I get around 7 hrs SOT and 1.5 days of usage without charging (with some battery tweaks and screen brighness to 50%). In comparision with my old Galaxy A3 I could reach easily 2 days which was perfect.
If the Honor 9 would have OLED display it would be amazing. Maybe the next Honor will get one, then I definately would buy again.

Yes I use data saver in Chrome. I think it does a good job and it even tells you how much data it saves (in percent). For me it is around 15-25% less data for different websites. Less data exchange means also less battery drop and faster site loading. I would recommend it.

From what I read, yes it did remove it (mainly because it found a bug or something)
My honor 9 only gets about max. 4 hours of screen time with battery saving on and it doesn't last me a day with average use. I play one game but it's not a heavy one (clash of clans) but only for about max. 30min/day. My battery even drains faster than my galaxy j5 2015 (who is 2 years old) which is dissapointing. I lose about 5-8% battery for Facebooking for 10minutes.
Is there something wrong with my device or is it just my usage?

I get the same thing with my Honor 9 with the same model name. About 4-4.5 hours screen time when doing no power intensive task what so ever. No games. Just some web browsing using Chrome and always using Huawei Battery optimizer with minimal amount of apps running in the background. Location services and accounts syncing is turned off Really happy with everything else about the device..

What should we do with our device?
Should we just wait for updates?

I'm still in time to return my phone to the shop if there are any problems with with or if I don't like it. So I could basically ask for a new phone and give mine back to the phone. Would that solve any issues? Or should we just wait for updates?

I'm happy with the rest of the phone, so I'll keep mine. I just think it's a shame that the battery life isn't better than this on my device, but maybe it can get better with future updates.
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.
Greetings xdadevelopers,
I own my OnePlus 6 for about 3 weeks now,and I feel like I'm getting bad battery life. I got a friend who has the exact same model (Silk White, 128 GB) and he gets far better SOT (battery life). I will attach two screenshots showing my battery life down to 75%.
So far I had a SOT of 1 hour and lost ~25% battery which would result in a total of just 4 hours of SOT. I hear a lot of people talking about their great battery life with their OnePlus 6 and some even saying that they get 5 hours of SOT at minimum even with heavy use.
Here's what I tried doing so far...
- Deactivate stuff when not needed, e.g. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS etc.
- Clear cache partition in storage settings
- Clear cache partition in recovery mode
- Use dark theme and dark wallpaper
I am currently running OxygenOS 5.1.11 and I really hope that I don't need to return my OnePlus 6 anytime soon because I don't have a spare phone to use. Anyone have some suggestions?
Thanks for any help!

A factory reset will most likely fix this issue.

You're aware that when people post crazy SOT, ie 5-6 hours, they're getting it while using WiFi? If you are using 4g/lte, the battery life will not be as good.
if you dont get the same SoT then its a user related so unless you have the same apps installed and the same settings etc then its impossbile to get the same amount of SoT.
Also when you check your phone every minute then it will drain like crazy then when you just turn it on and use it for a half hour straight. Also things like face unlock etc can use that battery and also disable the sync options.
You have a weak cell signal. That is the most likely culprit.

I never use WiFi, I'm on T-Mobile and have unlimited data and have never been throttled so no point in using WiFi and I get 9-11 hours of SOT and average about .7% idle drain and 2% overnight (7 hours). So you can get very good SOT and idle drain if you don't use crappy apps and don't have EVERYTHING turned on and maxed out all the time.
I can do 2 hours of YouTube, hour or 2 of calls, 30+ emails whatsapp and text all day and still go home with 60% battery life or better. Also about an hour maybe 2 of web surfing as well.
Try using greenify to kill any apps running in the background. But yeah, a crappy cell signal will drain battery pretty bad. Connect to WiFi when applicable.

9-11 hours of screen on time? I'm going to have to call BS on that.
I get most off the time 7-8 hours with wifi. And 4-5Hours with mobile data. Thats a huge difference
It's not BS

You can call it BS all you want but I've posted screen shots a couple months ago and I will have 3 or 4 hours of SOT using it for work all day for various things plus YouTube and web surfing and go home with 60-70% battery. The screenshot below if from last night actually after 24hours off charge. I usually get about 30 emails a day (work hours) 50+ texts and whatsapp with voice and pics, web surfing YouTube, Connected Gear S3 smartwatch, and about an hour or so of phone calls.

I personally don't take a charger with me to work. Plus with Accubattery every time you plug it ion it resets the stats unlike the built in battery monitor in the phones settings.
Some people are just bitter about people knowing how to set up phone for good battery. Or they just use some flaky apps that go rogue on them. There is no reason to lie about what you get battery stats. People ask about battery and people show how their phones are good or bad. Unless you have the same apps and same set up and use the phone the same, you'll never get the same battery performance.

@thefallen924 might aswell tag you on this one. No bs, just knowledge.
Mostly on wifi thus far, i should have about the same with 4g tho from what I noticed, I live near city center and have the antenna about 50 meters from my house, at work I have really ****ty connection so there it will drop massively, about 15% Drop in 9 hours with 30-40 minutes screen. If I use it in background it will obviously use more (like spotify/podcast)

Nice. I'm getting around 7hours but it seems I use my phone alot heavier than you. The app you use the most is a web browser. I play abit of pubg which drains the battery alot while in game.

Not bitter, just very skeptical. Anyone i've seen stating they get 9-11 hours of screen on time never posts a chart screenshot. I can usually get 5-7 on wifi. if you can get 9-11 then more power to you, but to say that its normal, is unrealistic. even if you go to the screen on time thread in the review section of the oneplus6 forum here on xda, you'll notice that an overwhelming majority of users are getting anywhere from 5-7.

Never once did I say it was normal. I'm just saying that you can get really good battery life. No one will ever get the same usage as another based on apps installed, how they have their phone sync and what they have running (WiFi, Bluetooth on or off, poor cell signal and location on high accuracy or battery saving) it all depends but I don't cripple my phone. I just turn off location permissions in all apps but Browser, Google, Maps, Weather and turn off Background data for apps that have no need to do that and leave my email and messaging apps, among a few others, alone. But to tell me BS (basically calling me a liar) when I can get that with pretty heavy use and my phone isn't crippled isn't cool.
And those people getting 5-7 hours of SOT are likely leaving their WiFi and Bluetooth on all the time no matter if they are connected or now, have everything syncing all the time and have Location on High Accuracy. Now granted I just bought a Gear S3 Frontier a week ago and I'm seeing about 5-10% more drain then before I bought the watch which is expected.
