I added it so he does not think it is the only android phones that do this.

Dial *#*#INFO#*#* then select Battery Information, TELL us how many degrees it is, then we can tell you if it's normal or not.

Ask in the nexus s forum...

My battery temperature went from 29C to 39C after about 30min of playing games.
Other information:
Level: from 30 to 19
Scale:100
Health: good
Voltage: from 3721mV to 3675mV (is this meant to change?)

By how much it is better than the stock battery? After how much you need to recharge it in both moderate and heavy usage?

Do you think this extra power is what killed your phone?

Yep, me too. One thing I have noticed about batteries (cheap extra ones or the originals) is that if they give any kind problem I clean the contacts. I use the pointy end of a penknife or similar to carefully scrape the surface clean. same goes for both the phone and charger contacts.
Pete

Anyone got more info? Just bought this battery for thr o3x.

Use this battery now for weeks and it seems as it is a lil improved battery life wise. From a 10 hour use I could squeeze with those battery pack 12 to 15 hours. Still not acceptable but hey 2hours more is 2 hours more

Is this battery safe for the phone
Is this battery safe for the phone circuit? I mean damage caused by over current or over voltage? Does the battery comes with any warranty? Definitely the battery warranty should not cover damage caused by battery to the phone? I do not want to put my phone in risk for just some extra time.

Don't know if I just got a bad battery or what, but I bought one of these and the battery life is aboslutely terrible. I put it in the phone, left it switched off and charging for a solid 8 hours, then tried to use it. With Bluetooth on, WiFi off and the phone just sitting in standby it barely lasted 6-7 hours before I was getting battery warnings. I let it charge up again, thinking it might take a few charges/discharges for the battery to work correctly, but the next discharge was even shorter!

Did you wipe your battery stats when you changed for different sized batteries ?

S7 be S7 Edge battery life.

Wondering if anyone has seen a test between the two to see how battery life varies. With no removable battery I'm looking for the longest life possible.

I am very happy, for first charge whole day, a lot of locking and fiddling around. And above 50%

How much screen on time?

See

Alright is that a edge or regular S7?

S7

S7 is much better than the s6 and same as g4 and m8

Battery life seems a lot better than with my S6 even with the Android System and Android OS using around 50% of the battery...not sure why though.

I got 30 hrs on my first charge with 4 hrs screen time. Regular S7. I'm also getting high Android System usage but am attributing that to downloading all my apps and everything syncing etc...

4 hours SoT still 22% of battery and used 1 hour of Spotify at the gym now. Android system still the bigger drain. I'm imagine what will be the battery life when I don't have this **** draining more then the screen

Squeezed 5 hours SoT. I don't have the always on display but Bluetooth, GPS, sync on. Just need to figure out why android system is using so much battery. 800+ mah

note8 to op6?

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.

so u suggest to buy OnePlus 6 over note 8?

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.

No...it's a matter of preference...I bought the OnePlus 6 because of speed and simplicity...I've always been a note lover, and always loved the features. But I always hated how slow the phone was because of the features...but it's a matter of what u prefer

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

That doesn't mean it is ip67. It may be similar but no guarantees. It is not meant to be put under water. It may survive but it is not designed to

[answered] should i claim warranty, because of lower battery capacity?

Hello,
I got my OP6 about a month ago and installed a app wich shows how much capacity the battery really has. Surprisingly it has 9% less than promised, wich means i miss 300 mah. Is it worth to claim warranty because of this? I mean in real scanarios its about 1.5 hrs i miss daily because of this.

AccuBattery is not accurate with capacity. It was like that with my OnePlus 5 as well.

I think that just reads os stats and doesn't really.measure it

Likely wrong reading from app,tried a few system info apps,aida64 and devcheck show accurate battery stats for me anyway

I don't fully believe the app, personally. My pixel 2 xl was 109% for the longest time and my op6 goes between 87% and 91% every few days

Yes you are right
No OEM, not only OP ,will accept values from an app. In the end you'll have to pull out your battery and look on the sticker for the values. And then you still have to believe these because I see no chance on how you can measure the real capacity (without spending a lot of money).
