Just received the new update with July security patch, front camera upgrade and a few other tweaks.
Me too on my global version.
Same here in Global... Hope Battery life stay decent like it was....

Battery life is still excellent.
Totally agree, battery life is less decent... Still interesting but decrease faster than previous build.
Normal usage comparaison based onmyown experience.

l would like to know this too, I had it disabled but today I received my new S-pen (full size) for the Note 10.1 and in order to use, I have to have the original smaller pen pulled out to use the new one.
Hopefully it wont make a huge difference.
it can help to preserve some extra battery life, but not much.
is it noticeable?

Can't say I've noticed a big change since changing the setting but I've always for the past 5-6 (whenever they started using lithium ion batteries that do not have the memory effect) years been charging my device overnight.
I still get a days heavy use out of it too.
I have a lot of troubles with my battery on my d850...
Like after 15 minutes of 10%bright and wifi just reading blogs, my battery on 100% got 96 %
I have a lot of problems some one can help me? I want to flash 10H or something like that on mu phone to get better battery life
Or some tips and tricks, what if i flash again my 10d to unroot and start on 0?
You can't flash any updates from the other variants. Wait until the bootloader gets unlocked so you can flash a few roms/updates/etc. Until then, we have to wait for att to push out an ota.
What a cruel world...
My battery life has been solid on this thing.

Or buy a 10,000 mA backup Anker battery from amazon (25.00 USD) and when your battery runs low plus the USB to phone and press the button. I have that, and extra battery, battery life is the last thing i worry about lol

I've had that battery pack for a couple of years. It's excellent.
I am noticing a fair amount of battery drain though. I'm guessing it's the ridiculously high resolution screen.

That is 100% correct. QHD/2k screen was not needed and is the BIGGEST battery hog for this phone. Its a shame, this phone could have been the perfect device, but as strange as it sounds, the screen is just too good and came to soon.
It is a shame. I was getting significantly better battery life on my Oneplus.
Out of curiosity, what are people doing to increase battery life beyond things like lowering brightness, turning off wifi, bluetooth, etc. . . .

So was I on my one plus. Screen just kills the battery significantly to the point where I'm kinda sick of it and the lack of Roms. I just ordered a Z3 good by LG...see you guys on the flip side.

That's where this bad boy comes in... http://www.amazon.com/Warranty-Zero...id=1414210434&sr=8-1&keywords=LG+G3+zerolemon :highfive:
Mine's on the way but I've purchased two batteries from them for a Note 2 and Note 3. Both were stellar.
Here's some discussion on the G3 battery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/accessories/lg-g3-zerolemon-t2887095
Feel free to share your best battery usage and screen on time in this thread.
I had the phone for a few days, and this is my phone after 2 days of use. Very impressive in my opinion.
That's a great one you got there mate. No doubt with its massive 3930 mah battery.

According to GSMarena battery life is average at best, they were quite disappointed with the results. So I’m not completely sure who to trust here.

I was worried too but every other reviewer says the battery its amazing. I bought the phone last week and I can tell you that GSMArena's results are completely wrong. I get a lot more battery life from this phone than the One Plus 3T.
Coming from a Xiaomi Mi Max I am a Bit dissapointed with this battery life, i forgot that most high end devices need to be charged everyday...
Its a pity that a mid range device has much better battery for less than half price...

It all depends on the user. Not by others imo. We all have our own way on how we use our phone.

Maybe because mi max is meant to last longer in terms of battery life. In addition, most mid range devices doesn't really have that much of a hardware feature unlike most high end flagship phones.

So you are comparing U11+ with xiaomi which has only snapdragon 650 on board (midrange), uses only full HD screen and has 4850mAh battery which is almost 1000 more than u11+? Did you expect 5 days with no charging? lol
I'm really happy with the battery. I expected the larger battery to cope with the display, and be average, but it's exceeded my expectations.
I'm a medium/ heavy user depending on the day.
Today is my record so far, had the phone for about 3 weeks, see pic
I have started putting power saver on overnight, clear all apps, and WiFi and data off. I'm using two sims aswell, not sure if that makes a difference
Here is mine.
Far better than my old Nexus 5 but I can't compare with other flagships. It last all day, from 7am to 22pm with ease. I needed to recharge my N5 2 to 3 times a day with similar usage.
Today
4H SOT over 12h50 and 39% left.
During this time, I played 1h of Airport City game and run for 50 min (so GPS for 50 min).
Google fit tracks me all day long too.
Mine:
Exceeds my expectations
my phone is on wifi 24/7
Are you on power saver constantly lol

Yes I am and still be able to use it the "normal" way
Then again, I let the battery go down to 1% and then start charging it again, which significantly increases the battery life and therefor get, at least, 5 days out of the battery

As far as I know, newer batteries don't behave like that, and partial charges are better with new battery technology.
Totally disapointed with mine. 5 sot more or less.
Is there something wrong with the software in this phone? This cant be normal.
I have the 6gb 128gb version

I come from a 5t and i have the oposite opinión. The 5t battery was noticiable better. 6-7 sot against 5 on this u11 plus
Seing the increíble distance between some people Who do 10 sot and many others like myself that barely so 4-5 i Wonder if this could be some software glitch depending on the model.
Mine its like i said above the 6gb 128gb translucent versión

I am not sure what it could be, I am also using the 6GB 128GB Translucent version from Hong Kong. The phone is currently on software 1.24.400.2, even though I have had great battery since day one. I recommend a factory reset just in case or check on the battery section, details what is draining it quicker. I can even play games for the majority of the charge and still get around 7hrs every time. Also check for gesture features, google maps, apps in sync, and many things that could drain your battery.

Hi, can you post a battery history screenshot with 7hrs SOT ?
I am just configuring mine (European Dual SIM, 6GB, 128 GB), and with just a few apps, no games, it loses 20% overnight.
It seems awful, I am almost considering returning it, and I had such high hopes.
I already factory reset it again and try to test it further.
What is you screen off drain overnight, on Wifi ?
I only have one SIM, the always on display only on motion launch, location normal, a HW2 android wear watch.

Something is draining your phone like crazy if it loses 20% overnight. That is not normal behaviour at all
Smart Display set to motion battery test results
4g/No Wi-Fi
50% auto brigthness
high accuracy location
Happy with this considering I didn't even get to drain till 10%
It shouldn't drain that much overnight tbh
I've never really heard of Vivo before. What is their history as far as quality? Will the phone last for 4 years of daily use without the systems breaking down?
Define lifespan. Today's penchant for sealed batteries and rapid charge systems make the battery the weakest link with 18 - 24 months of viable life.
Hardware will last forever. Software updates not so much.
if i use non quick charge charger can it lengthen the battery life?

I own a Vivo V3 from 2016 and it still runs as smooth as it was new and no issues with battery and still get minor software updates.
I have my vivo nex since it's launch and its still runs good as new.
Hmm I got an iPhone 8 at work and the battery brain and loss of battery on that is amazing, it barely leaks. On my pixel it just leaks battery life so easily and quickly.
I know it depends on how you use the device and 100 other factor but anyone else get this general feeling? I read Pixel 1 has heat issues with that version of CPU.
I recently purchased a used pixel.. I did expect the battery life to be better than it appears to be... i'm not sure if its because the battery is fairly degraded from the previous owners.. or if I have a slow drain.. or maybe just an unrealistic expectation of the smaller variant... but I am curious to know if other people see really good battery life on their phone.. Thanks!
I bought a used pixel as well. I have questioned the battery life as well. Then again I purchased this phone for 150.00 and the quick charge is a blessing. I did crack my screen so I was going to perform a battery change while I did the screen to see if that would fix my issue. Here is a screenshot of my battery.
Keep in mind that Apple uses some funny algorithms to report the battery percentage and usage in a way that makes the user perceive the battery life to be better than it actually is. Like, why do you think it stays at 100% for so long? When down to 3, 2, or 1%, the battery lasts forever until it the device finally shuts down. Don't trust Apple (iOS), and take everything they report with a grain of salt.

I also bought a used Pixel and found the battery life not to match my expectations, as it is quite average like mid range phones. I ran a Geekbench 3 battery test, and got the score of 1798, which is slightly below other Pixels, but not that much. So while the Pixel XL has a top level battery life, the smaller phone lacks of battery to run the powerful hardware. Still I am quite happy with battery life while soft usage watching videos.
Here are screenshots of my battery life all made without charging the phone in between. The first screenshot is with gaming and heavier apps (around 3h15 SOT), while the second and third are almost only soft usage with mainly YouTube and Netflix at 50% brightness, where I can get around 4hrs30 SOT, which I am happy with. Hope this helps somebody.

so do you use the adaptive screen brightness or manually change it throughout the day?
