want to change my note 8 with op6 but I'm scared because people on xda is telling it has a huge overnight battery drain.. it's almost like 10-15% ..
look my Samsung galaxy note 8 is full of bloat and I want to taste a stock alike phone...but i lose only 2-3% overnight with this bloated phone...but op6 is almost stock..then what's causing this drain? i saw Reddit and op forum almost every one is facing this problem..i used 5t and it had same issue like this... that's whyvi returned.. please suggest me...
hope i didn't show any attitude or disrespect anybody... ?
I have come from Note 8 to OP6 two days back. Battery is way way better than note 8. I have been on Note 8 since 7-8months and battery is very awful.
I'm on note 8 too, and the oneplus 6. Been doing some testings, OP 6 is far better in battery and optimize .
And in a few weeks our so, there will be down-clockable and up clockable kernels out there to improve voltage usage and much more.
Oneplus 6, is far better when it comes down to battery.
I have a note 8 and a 5t. I rarely used the note 8 over the 5t because of the battery and lag. The OnePlus 6 has been performing the same as the 5t to me so far. The other day I was able to get almost 10 hours without charging at 60% battery left on the OnePlus 6. So my note 8 will continue to be unused.
When I sleep, I just turn WiFi and Mobile data off...
And the drain is hardly 1-2%, if that.

No, and depends what you want. Op6 feels like a $2-300 phone. Speaker, camera etc are honor 7x territory. Updates can help but hardware is hardware.
Updates and oem support OnePlus wins vs any Samsung.
I'm getting close to 6hrs of sot valid note with 4-5hrs sot. I personally could give 2 craps, as I have access to chargers and such. Both gets me through the workday. This is op6 without tweaks vs note 8 with qhd resolution and everything left on. Trade off is minimal. Everybody has fast charging.
I miss my note 8. Op6 is smooth. It will be a slight downgrade overall besides speed and battery life. It's a 1080p panel with stock Android.

I've used all OnePlus devices including OnePlus one..that was one of my most favourite devices
OnePlus 6 - Speed, Battery, Quick updates, Stupid fast charging, Stock android
Note 8 - HD Screen, amazing camera, waterproofing, wireless charging, feature overload
I've love watching videos and media on the OnePlus 6. The battery just freaking last. I've gotten 7-8 hours SOT between Youtube, Youtube TV, Netflix, Prime Video and other general use(my table is getting cold as I haven't touched it since the phone arrived). It took a few charges to get the max out of the battery but Dang I have NEVER had a phone like this(at first it wasn't as impressive but it did change). I am coming from the S8 btw. Which wouldn't last half the time as this phone with SOT. And it is a beastttttt. Nothing slows it down.

That is not accurate. They did not pay for the certification so all we can assume is it will survive splashes. In fact another YouTube put it in his pool where IP67 would survive and it filled up with water and bricked his phone. Watch it here

I've asked this question before but I'm having a hard time choosing between Honor 8, Honor 9 and iphone SE (yeah I know ) so please help me out. Many reports of bad battery life on Nougat so I'm worried before making the jump.
How is your battery life with latest update on Nougat? I mean without rooting, greenify or other tweaks. How's standby time with wifi on and background data always on?
Thanks a lot!
I would not go for the iPhone. The iPhone has an awful display and is not too fast. The Honors are both pretty good. Honor 9 is better than Honor 8, but Honor 8 is still pretty amazing. I haven't had any battery issues myself, so idk what is all this fuss about.
OnePlus 5T. Everything is better, except SD card support and IR.

Honor phones are realy good, I have before both Honor 8 and 9. Im selling both and buy P10 plus. Because, I want better camera. Honor 8 is amazing device and receive Oreo but we ned wait. Honor 9 have already Oreo. Camera quality is same H8 and H9. H9 have just 20Mpx (I dont see any different betwen H8 and H9 quality. I was realy sad for this. In 5. december will launch new Honor phone I think will be Honor 9 pro.
So Honor 8 (except procesor) is same like 9 but maybe cheaper. I suggest u buy Honor 8 or Honor 8 pro or wait for Honor 9 pro. I dont recommend to buy Honor 9, from my experience I cant

Sorry but 12 hours is still too low, unless you are eating up the battery playing games and using GPS all the time. Powerful processors should also be power-efficient. I don't think the processor in Honor 8 is inefficient because by all accounts battery life was fine on Marshmallow, so either Huawei messed something up in Nougat or the quality of the batteries in some units is so bad that they degrade a lot within the one-year mark, which coincides with the time of the Nougat update. Looks are irrelevant to a discussion of battery life.

Well maybe not that bad then, if you are a heavy user. Anyway if you are happy with your device congratulations. Oh and Samsung is crap. HTC sadly is rapidly spiralling down to nonexistence.
so i bought the oneplus 7 pro and now im concerned about the battery aging of previous oneplus devices.
anyone who is using oneplus devices for long time can you guys tell me how does oneplus batteries perform overtime and further more dash or warp charge's effect the overall battery capicity>?
THANKS to anyone who answers this
My 3T is still going strong after almost 2.5 years. Only reason I upgraded to the 7 Pro is a broken screen on the 3T. I almost always used the stock Dash charger with the 3T, and haven't noticed any significant decline in battery life.
Now, I think these manufaccturers will often switch battery suppliers, or use multiple suppliers. So my single data point may or may not be a predictor of how the battery on the 7 Pro will do.

I would definitely say a normal/light user. No gaming (which is what folks often mean by "heavy" user). Just web browsing, email, video streaming, voice calls, etc.
On the other hand, I also leave my phone on the charger overnight all the time. Which supposedly is bad for long term battery health (leaving the phone on charger, after it is fully charged). But yet, all the batteries on my phone's I've ever had seem to have had decent battery longevity.
OP3, OP5, OP6, OP6T, and OP7 Pro all have had adequate battery life (OP7P so far)
The standby drain is very minimal. There's no need to leave your phone plugged in all night. Put it on the charger when u jump in the shower and it should be good to go when u leave.
Hello,
How is the battery life on Pixel 3 (non XL)? Does it last a whole day with normal usage? What is the average Screen On Time?
Getting a P3 for 500$ from Google Store but have serious reservations about battery life after reading reviews? Is it worth getting?
I just got mine 2 months ago. I have about 300 apps installed. Most have been opened and therefore running stuff in background. I can Easily go all day without a charge. Some evenings I'm only at 50% before bed. I consider myself a medium user (not streaming a lot of video, etc). It was a much better experience than my early Pixel XL. Hope this helps.

I don't know if you're going to get the answer you're looking for because "normal usage", screen on time, apps installed, types of apps, network coverage, etc all vary widely from person to person. What works great for me might not at all for you.
If I have a normal use day I have about 5 to 6 hours of SoT. I've gotten 7+, it's about what my S10e got,.
However I am a heavy user, constantly rebooting and testing new modules and on Q beta so I can get anywhere from 2 to 4 but that is because I am HARDCORE draining the phone.

That is not too great and does not give me much confidence. I have heard battery life on 3A is stellar. I had the Pixel 1XL and Nexus 6Pand after a few months, Battery life went bad on both those phones. Hence, someone apprehensive, considering all the negative I have heard about Pixel 3 battery right off the bat.

If the several months down the line degredation theory is accurate for pixels, then the 3a having stellar battery life may also be smoke and mirrors.
I had a 3a and sold it for a 3. Got $100 bb gift card when I bought it, sold it for $350. So I made $50 in that and bought my pixel 3 for $400. I think it's worth it for the extra $50 to have the better processor, water rating and wireless charging.
My battery life has been...ok with my 3. Absolutely nothing to write home about but certainly not the worst I've ever seen. Drain is a bit higher than I like to see, idle and active (1.5 and 13 respective, according to exkm). My screen in time per cycle is between 5-6 hours generally but that is a misleading number for to different setups and signal strength.
I say if you dig the device, get it. If you hate it, hell that's what swappa is for. I have bought and sold so many devices on there because they didn't meet my standards it because something else caught my eye.
I will be keeping this device for awhile. I really like the size and features. I'm sure I could boost battery by nurfing features but I am not interested in doing that. This has been excessively long so... Let us know what you decide. Hope my diatribe helped a little. If not... It was free, so don't complain

My Pixel 3 barely makes a day on a charge. Meanwhile, I use my old Moto X4 to stream music to my work headset, and it can do that for a whole day and still be at 60-70% battery by the end. I tried that with my Pixel, and I ended up having to use extreme battery saver mode by the end of the day.
My battery has been much better since I turned off mobile network always active in developer settings. Keeps idle drain will below 1% now. I couldn't figure it for the life of me why it was so high. Try it!

For me as a heavy social media user (Whatsapp, snapchat, Instagram, etc) the battery is normally between 4 and 5 hours sot. So if you don't use those battery heavy apps I could imagine 7 hours.
I'm on 90hz and 1440p.
Battery has been very good with normal usage and not a concern of mine.

Having owned exynos samsung devices in the US on t-mo , i can honestly tell you i will never ever eff with samsung again.
The CSC crap alone should be enough to dissuade you.
Until OEMs give the option to run stock Android with updates on the day of release, I'm stuck with Google devices. I don't really care for the pixel hardware or the design to be honest. I just want stock rooted and be able to take OTAs.

Isn't Oneplus the logical choice? My understanding is that the hardware is better than the Pixels and it supports unlocking and flashing.
My Pixel 3 XL is very disappointing as well. It drains battery like crazy. My 3 yr old Pixel 2 XL has almost 40% more battery in identical conditions. And then also P3XL has bluetooth connection issues and reloading of apps in background.
Very bored and discouraged with the phone and can't do much since I spend close to $900 on it.
Thinking of Oneplus as the next device and getting away from Pixels. Do you have any other advice?

Yes. I agree. But the 7tPro is not available in the US. Also do you know whether OnePlus update Android regularly? One good thing about Pixels is the monthly security patch, and I don't know if OP phones get that.
How is your battery life on the P3XL? Mine is completely garbage. To the point, I have to carry 2 phones around always (Pixel 2 as the backup). IF I'm out, the battery on P3XL drains in real time. I barely even get half a day of light usage.
I've tried EVERY trick in the book: Multiple factory resets, debugging apps, rooting, custom kernels. NOTHING has helped. A P2XL in identical conditions - doesn't drain any battery at all. As I type this, since morning my P3XL has gone down to 51% in 3 hours where as P2XL is still at 83%. Both phones have the same exact apps and same version of Android.

One plus jus releaseed Android 10 beta in oct or Nov so their right behind Google but for half the price 577 with a case screen protector preinstalled 8gb ram 256 storage 90hz fresh rate like the pixel 4 4000mah battery 30 min charge time. Sounds way better to me. Also you should try
Despair Kernel it helped my P3XL in battery life. Also if you root theres magisk module GMS dose will help with the standby drain with Kernel and that module makes it gold .

Thanks. Appreciate the review.
Once you have the Oneplus 7 Pro, I would be very interested to know the comparison with Pixel 3 XL specifically on the screen, sound, performance, battery life etc. I do NOT care about the Camera.
