Poco X3 Android system high drain? - Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers

Hello,
I just got my Poco X3, running MIUI 12.0.7, yesterday but it felt like the battery was draining faster than it should. I checked the stats and it says android system contributed about 12% of that usage with a total CPU time of 3h 18min. Is that normal?
Even if that is normal, something is definitely wrong. Since I took the screenshot, exactly half an hour has passed, I did a reboot after taking the screenshot and since then it went from 64% to 59% in those 30 minutes with nothing more than mobile data active and screen brightness fixed at around 10-15%.

Try this. It was the first thing I did after staring my new device. I have around 8-11 hours of SOT. Stock Miui 12.0.7.

Since the phone is brand new, the Battery needs time to calibrate itself. It will take a few cycles to adjust. Don't worry about the Android System usage, it will settle after a while.
If the usage is still unusually high after a week, please post back here in this thread with SoT and same battery graph.
SoT for Indian Poco is around 10-13 Hours.
SoT for Poco X3 NFC is around 7-9 Hours.
Enjoy your Poco.

My SOT is even worse than yours.

Battery Life/Screen on time

First day with Mi Note 10,
Can you share your battery experience with Mi Note 10, I don't know why it seems my battery is draining too fast, I charged it to 100% around 11pm and woke up 5am, sleeping for 6hrs, everything is off, then when I checked the phone the battery percentage dropped to 96%.
I used it for the entire day, left with 19%, with SOT of 5.24hrs, I only use camera and Spotify for most of it.
See screenshots
your screenshot is not showed up,
but anyway, from 100%, normally i will ends up with 9h screen time.
as per right now, my screen time is 5h48m and 42% battery,
top usage is my game, followed by chrome, instagram and youtube
It's normal for newer Xiaomi phones, my older Note 6 Pro would lose 2% with dual sims enabled. My Note 10 loses around the same as yours with no sims even on it. When looking at battery mon there are a lot of "wake up" calls. My Mi 9 did the same thing, poor standby life. Very disappointed with Xiaomi and the Note 10. No notification LED, no phone call recorder are my biggest issues. Also phone tends to hang every now and then, requiring a hard reboot, fwiw I don't play or have any games installed.
When it comes to battey life people often get confused and quote SCREEN ON TIME. You are asking about standby time and SOT, the standby sucks, SOT not too bad.

Wth is Xiaomi doing with Battery Usage Statistics on MIUI12?

I get something like this with the SOT of about 2h and the phone charged about a day ago.
It's beyond me what data is showing the Battery usage stats.
Miui 12 is a complete mess in terms of battery, it must be fixed very soon.

Stock firmware battery drain

Hello dear XDA members,
I bought Poco X3 NFC two days ago ( The Global version ) and I noticed that the battery performance is very poor.
At first I was using the screen @ 120 Hz frame rate and I was able to get 7 hours SOT normal usage, and 6 hours SOT while playing PUBG.
Then I changed the screen frame rate to 60 Hz but the situation didn't change... And I got 5 hours SOT only !
I would like to know if you are getting the same SOT?
Is it a general problem?
I'm on MIUI 12.0.4.0
I didn't get the chance to test the previous firmwares to compare screen SOT.
thanks in advance.
WOW, I have it set to 90 Hz and when I do not play, I get 11h SOT and over 40h on the battery.
Look
Same here. The sot. Is not good.
It will get better after one week or something

Lucky you, I have been doing some research and I found that other people have battery drain issues too, and other people have wonderful SOT
Yeah people either say it's insanely good or just plain garbo. I for example can't even tell lol. The built-in battery monitor doesn't seem to work properly. It spits out some nonsensical numbers and doesn't show all the apps I'm using. For example it shows 1,5h active for the display after 20+ hours of usage were I've watched multiple YouTube videos during this time (some of them longer than 20 minutes). And YouTube app doesn't even show up in the summary. Same goes for Opera browser which I use quite a lot. Didn't realise at first though, as I charge my device every other day or so and don't game much on it really (it significantly shortens the non removable battery life span). AccuBattery only shows estimates (free version). Don't know how they get an accurate/believable measurement with like 30h+ standby.

I heard of this issue too, and I started to use accubattery today to keep track of the battery usage
You need to calibrate your battery
Calibrate Battery:
Do two full charge / discharge cycles (from 100% to% 0, charge off to 100%) and finally a full charge (or half charge / discharge cycle, which is the same)
With that it would already be recalibrated.
Half cycle equals one full charge or one full discharge.
One cycle equals one full charge + one full discharge.
These are the so-called battery life cycles
Or charge / discharge cycles
Both terms refer to the same thing.
What kills lithium batteries are these cycles, it is like a flash memory, it has limited write cycles. Lithium batteries, the same, but both discharges and charges count.
That is why they recommend doing small charges and keeping the battery between 20% and 80%. Older people recommend carrying out a charge / discharge cycle every 15-20 days, to ensure the correct calibration of the battery.

So maybe it is the adaptive battery feature which takes some time to work correctly, I think I am getting a slight improvement.. still testing though
Battery Improved a lot since I wrote this thread, I think adaptive battery feature started to work.
My SOT is even worse than yours.
I am using poco x3 indian varient with 6000 mah battery
What did you do to increase SOT ?

xiaomi.eu 12.2.3 battery drain and laggy animations?

I'm on miui.eu 12.2.3 and I'm noticing laggier animations and insane battery drain (I'm roughly getting 5 to 6 hours of screen on time under moderate usage like watching tiktok, browsing the net, youtube, twitch, an hour or two of genshin impact).
According to my battery usage stats as of posting this, I have so far consumed 2721 mAh with a screen on time of 4 hours and 42 minutes and standby time of 9 hours and 19 minutes. Battery life right now is at 30%. The device I'm using is a K30 Pro Zoom with an advertised battery of 4700 mAh.
Is this normal or is it the rom draining my battery and making the device laggier or is it the battery itself?
Can anyone tell me what's the best rom to use with this device?

Have you looked at the automatic start of apps and as well as background permissions?

any solutions or ideas?
i am using the poco x3 nfc global verison and iam at 12.0.9.0.
Might be bad apps, usual use should reach 8-9 hours SOT... Check out thread as I saw someone posted ways to increase SOT..
