[Discussion]Battery life MIUI 9.5.19 Global Stable - Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion

Wanted to share my experience with battery life...
It's Not the best I've ever had but with moderate usage I got over 7 hours SOT.
See Attached
Moderate usage. YouTube, Snapchat, discord,
Reddit (Boost client is my client of choice), chrome, and a few games.
ATT Network in the States
Global Model device (XA) and Global stable 9.5.19

I got 4 hours SOT, LTE enabled, Facebook / Discord / Snapchat etc... Some Chrome browsing and some PUBG M / Dragon Ball Legends etc...

According to accubattery I am getting 8hrs 16 mins that's based on the last 7 days of use.

On previous 9.5.18 I had huge battery drain overnight more than 20%, when not used phone was not going to deep sleep. But now with 9.5.19 it seems much better, no more battery drain overnight and about 6 - 7h SOT

Im going to be updating to MIUI 10 global beta tonight. So sick of the 15 day wait. Absolute horse**** we have to wait 15 days to unlock out bootloaders.
Hopefully my battery on MIUI 10 is just as good as 9.5.19

Battery Life & SOT

Been getting about 14 to 16 hrs of battery life and about 4 hrs of SOT for the week. Main usage is web surfing, emails, whatsapp, YouTube and music streaming, no gaming.
Two days ago, I enabled the boost+ app and optimize most apps that don't need to run at full resolution. The screen on time seems to have improved a lot. Got 5hr 56mins of SOT with 14hr 46mins battery life.
This is much better than my HTC 10 after the nougat update. SOT approx 4hrs. I have boost+ running too.
Will monitor for a few more days to see if it is a one off performance.

Pretty good life!! mine gets about 3.5 hrs SOT, and about 13 hour standby, I also have boost+ on too. Curious as to what your brightness setting is, mine about 50% with adaptive on. I am rather heavier on my battery and network, so it doesnt surprise me that you're getting better life. (mine was better when I was on holiday with a better network connection).
About 45% level with adaptive on too. I think setting boost+ to run almost every app at HD resolution, excluding photo apps, helps a lot.
Good network is key too.
I am very satisfied with battery life when on WiFi 4,5-5 hours SOT), but when on LTE I get around 3 hours of SOT. I just enabled Boost+ to see if it improves battery life at all. I don't want to enable though FullHD for apps.
Do you use location services in high accuracy mode?
Here is mine, Charged up to 96% used until now.
Battery had become a bit crazy lately after updates to tons of apps. Just updated the firmware yesterday. Will monitor again.
Hi guys, hope everyone is doing good.
I wanted to ask that from past 2-3 days I'm facing very quick battery drain on u ultra. I'm hardly getting 2.5 hrs of Sot. Phone is heating too much.
Before this I was seeing around 4 hrs+ SOT that too with 1hr+ of casual gaming. I don't know what is wrong but I'm worried. My device is heating that's all what I'm able to notice. Any suggestions are most welcome. Except this, love the device.
Thank you.
It happened to me after updates of some apps.
The only way I solved it was to shutdown the phone completely. Wait for about a minute before powering up again.
Thinking about getting the U Ultra. Do you feel that the battery life is good enough?

Actually depends on what your daily usage looks like. If I'm on holiday or the whole day at home, one charge easily lasts for 2-3 days. But at university with every sync /bt/WiFi etc enabled and 50% brightness I get about 8h with high amount of screen on time (50-80%)

I usually use the phone for 2-4 hours per day but more hours during travel.
How much does the battery drain during standby? For instance, I you leave the phone in standby during the night, how many percent does the battery decrease?
Mine loses about 4% overnight (8 hours) which I think is exceptionally good!
For me it highly depends on which ROM and which apps I have installed. Recently the battery drain was about 1%/hour (150 apps, all syncing etc on), but right now after cleaning up a bit and nstalling greenify I'm back at ~3-6% per night.
I can get the black U Ultra for €291.99 here: https://www.eglobalcentral.eu/htc-u-ultra-64gb-4g-dual-sim-sim-free-unlocked-black.html
Tested the phone yesterday at a local shop here in Sweden, felt great in the hand and I really like the design. However, the battery life may be a deal breaker. Most of the phones I have used during the last 2 years has droppped 1-3 percent during night and I usually got 6 hours SOT over 24 hours. The last phone I used with weak battery life was Nexus 6, it gave med 3-4 hours SOT during 24h and that was slightly annoying. I get the impression that U Ultra is comparable to Nexus 6 in the battery department. :-/
That's actually a very accurate comparison. I replaced my Nexus 6 with the HTC Ultra and I'm getting almost identical SOT and battery life.

I get about 24 hours of mixed usage, which means I need to charge it up every morning, but I never seem to be able to get more that 4 hours SOT. Also, the rapid charger is slower than the Nexus 6. It takes about 1 hour and 50 minutes for a full charge.
I installed and configured kernel Adiutor/CPU Kernel state #on_demand and turned off #core_4. Now my battery/system working 2 whole days before charging!
Guys if i go to optimize apps and turn it on, Wen I leave it turns off again. Is this normal? I restart the phone and I already did a factory reset because the phone was updated alot the first time I use it, but it's the same. I'm getting about 3-4 hours off sot depending on the use. Maybe less. What do you guys think?
i got 5hrs and a few mins with the first charge (light use, browsing, installing apps, tweakin settings and 35mins spotify)

Screen on time

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 7X before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
5hrs SOT time, normal use (instagram 1 hr, yt 1hr, netflix 2 episodes of 1 hour, other 1hr)
3 1/2 hrs SOT time, stress use (1hr calls, instagram, yt, web browsing)
Hope this gives you a little jist.. The battery is pretty good since i use a few battery hogging apps for background.. Easily lasts more than a day for me.. :fingers-crossed:
Very happy with the battery life. I know after 6 or 7 months the battery life will be reduce but its overall a good package.. Sharing some screens here.
This SOT i got with second charging. Charged from 0 to 90% (Not 100%) and used. This SOT result is from 90% . Not from 100%.
Usage:-
======
Whatsapp
YouTube
Chrome and downloads
Some minutes of Cricket game play
Some videos in MX Player
XDA App
Calls and SMS
Some musics
No FB and Messenger
Full time LTE ( JIO voLTE India)
Dual sim all time
Here i just disabled some apps that i never use..
Same here 7:12 Sot. With root and delete all unnecessary apps.
Sorry i forgot the Screenshot.Next time
good enough
Good inmy case without games always on 4g
I've got over 8 hours SOT quite often now, not restricting anything (gaming, calls, wifi, 4g)
I have never had the chance to test battery but standby drain is excellent.
However, for heavy gaming battery life is poor and the device significantly heats up. I can completely finish my battery from 100% to 0% in around 3 hours with a game like Angry Birds 2. However, even on other devices it's known to be hard on the battery and unoptimized.
In the next coming days I'll test battery with regular use and not gaming, general web browsing and some YouTube perhaps.
However, I easily get a full day out the battery, I am impressed.
7 hrs of fuc*ing sot
Ace
7 hours sot

No small charges in between?
Phones get better mileage at/between different percentages so it doesn't mean much if your not showing a near full discharge...
Here's my experience:
Had it charged to 100% at 9pm.
The 68% screenshot was taken at 8am.
22% at 1:33pm
9% at 3:09pm

Wow, that launcher drains more than Play services
I'd say it's faring pretty dang well. Over 7.5 hours SOT with almost 2 days of usage on a single charge? This, to me, is absolutely astounding. OPO did a phenomenal job on optimizing this device. Coming from my GS9 which is barely over 4.5 hours SOT on a good day, and the Pixel 3 XL which is... unremarkable at best.
Edit: Oh and of note, Battery saver has only been on since about 10-11%. Was simply wanting to make sure it made it until I went to bed!

Mostly browsing with Chrome, but also Viber and Google Voice for messages, YouTube and YouTube TV. I'll be posting new screenshots which will include the usage details.
First day battery test was a near full discharge. NO BATTERY SAVER USED. Moderate usage few videos, pictures taken, music, settings being configured to personal preference and got 7+ hours of SOT with 32hours till 10%. Got down to 5% at the 39 hours mark with 8+ SOT. Does anyone have advise on a healthy charging habit to keep battery accurate and healthy, to prolong the life charge. Would be great for battery health advice. Thanks. Enjoy

OnePlus 6T providing amazing battery life. The screen on time is more than 8 hours. Surprised by the battery life as i coming from galaxy note 5.
Impressive battery
????
I'm consistently getting over 10 hours of SOT over a period of 24 - 30 hours which is insane.
This is mostly with streaming through Netflix and YouTube.
I have turned off the battery optimisations as well.
Nice going, op6t!
Started with 100% in the PM.
OOS 9.0.5, Completely stock.
With the latest update i feel like the oneplus team has definitely made screen unlock a few milliseconds quicker, and after installing the latest arnova gcam (with night sight), i feel like i don't have anything left to complain about this phone. On top of that it gives great battery life.
11+ hours over 2 days, although i admit i don't game at all.

I tried the Gcam 6.1 Port from pixel on OOS 9.0.3 but it drains the battery a lot. SOT down to 5 hrs from 8+ hours. Approx 10 minutes usage of Gcam reduces around 15% of the battery.
I don't really do all that much, some clash royale, reddit, random websites, and mostly youtube browsing, oh and for today I used GPS for the 3hr drive to and from a meeting (brightness at 70% the first hour and 25% the rest), and i was also able to pull off 10hrs SOT over 20hr period. Pretty great considering the same type of usage would barely get me 4hrs on my 3T.
Although im almost certain this is from the colder weather and darker skies. That 10hrs is probably more like 6hrs in the summer day. Im not even sure this is good by any means, since im so used to garbage battery lol
Shoot I forgot the screenshot [web link]
Battery discharge from initial bootup. Battery started at 54%.
4+ hours SoT
A lot of FB, Chrome and installing apps/initial configuration stuff.
Installed 9.0.5 update.
Still have 9% left and hour of estimated usage.
Loving the 6t and this amazing battery life. Came from a Moto Z Force.
T-Mobile variant
First charge
Off charger at 7am
Mix usage, call, games, YouTube, reading, browsing interwebs
Not bad.

Last day I went on a trip. The phone was mostly on max. Brightness and camera was also used extensively. The SOT was a bit less than 6 hours.
I don't have screenshots to share.
Heres mine on an average day
Here's mine.
After the first full charge I got 7 1/2 hours of Screen on Time of mixed usage (WiFi/MobileData).
Really nice!
Installed GSam battery monitor n Accu battery app
The discharging speed while screen off was 2.6 percnt which is quite high.. dont know if these two app were the culprit which were running with notifications in the notifications centre ..
Andriod 10 SOT + Standby Drain.
Is it just me or has battery life improved drastically since the android 10 update? Im regularly getting SOT north of 11 hours now!

I get about 12 hours sot without gaming. And around 8 hours with gaming
I get over 12 hours of SOT almost all the time watching Facebook live stream over 4G.
12 hours? HOW?
I bought this phone just for the big battery. It's new, all optimised, just a few apps and the battery sucks...not to mention the battery graph. I honestly believe that I don't even reach 5 hours SOT, just by using WhatsApp and Mint Browser. mah!
Now my phone is at 87% with a 1h27 SOT. Google play services is at the top with 11.25% (which is still low, compared to usual values). I have disabled and optimised everything I could, no sync, no backup, nothing...and still, here I am
Depends on usage, but i can get from 10 to 6 hours of sot. If using phone non stop, 10+ hours easily. If a lot of standby, i usually get around 6 hours sot with 48 hour standby.
For me in half brightness it lasted me 11 to 12 hours almost non stop in YouTube and Instagram
