Screen on time - Honor 5X Real Life Review

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 5X before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

The longest I've gotten was just under 6 and a half hours with 9% battery left when I plugged in

8 hr screen on time with moderate use

Great battery life

If I use my honor 5x moderately, I get around 5.5-6 hrs SOT. under heavier use it's usually 3-4 hours.
also battery would last a full 24-hr day with normal use and recharging would take ~3hrs.

Wow, this 5x is a beast on SOT.

5.5hours of sot 4me on average usage

Giving me 1 day usage

just pulled 5hrs sot
dual sim mode,
4g active
hostsopt and vpn was active around 1hr
rest all goes to insragram and xda app and some gaming

That's fantastic

The battery has been extremely amazing, I got this phone and got rid of my Nexus 5x. It was an upgrade in this category.

Yep you're right, but the nexus has an advantage of direct support from google (which results in a better dev support) and front facing speakers

Hence why I said in this category

I do understand

Best one so far, 7.5 hours. Location, 4G, lots of browsing. Running B350. I don't know if that amount of awake time is normal - like my phone isn't sleeping unless I turn wifi off...

Now With 4G ON 24 x 7, I'm getting a day exactly on normal usage.
With my stock 2A charger, it gets charged by 2hrs.

moving post to correct thread.

Quite good

With a lot of ROMs ( RR, crdoid,...) getting 4h30/5h SOT with still 30% left.
Of course i use forcedoze and frooze some system apps like devtools,inputdevices,timeservice and keychain.

Battery life is great

I'm really impressed by the battery on the A7. I've had 3.5 hours of sot and 20% left even after caning it with DS Audio, 4 hours of internet radio, 50 photos plus editing and lots of surfing.
Doze is extraordinary. Check out last night's battery consumption (I really must get to bed earlier).
Best battery life on a phone that I've had so far.....Well, since smartphones. I had some flip phones that could last a week.
It seems to be a bit better than the Nexus 6P I came from. Definitely not as good as the Oneplus One, much better than the Moto X Pure.

The main thing I've noticed is that this phone doesn't get excessively hot which seems to kill the battery very fast (both issues I've had with almost every smartphone owned: Nexus 6p and Oneplus One included). Apps that use GPS, camera use, gaming etc don't seem to get the phone as hot and this seems to correlate with better battery life under use. The only time I feel the phone warming up is if I'm using the Quickcharge charger while doing something else. It's barely warm though.
If I babied my Oneplus One (Sultans ROM) I managed to get 8 hours SOT which was crazy but it didn't charge the way the Axon 7 does and it certainly wouldn't have coped with the stress I'm putting on the Axon 7. I remember things like constant GPS + Spotify + Bluetooth would mean my Oneplus One wouldn't be able to charge as fast as the battery was being drawn. Not an issue at all with the Axon 7.

I agree on all points. This is one of the coolest running phones I've ever used. Only thing I've done that creates noticeable heat other than charging is +30 minute phone calls on Bluetooth in car. And it charges unbelievably fast. Very happy!
Got ,5 and a half hours yesterday. I honestly average 5 hours. Battery life has improved significantly with this smart power voodoo on. It doesn't affect performance unlike it does on tw.
I notice more apps are closed in background when I have smart power on.. Like I'll be able to have about 5-10 apps open with smart power on.. But 15-25 with it off.
I get an extra hour sot with smart power on.
And I took quite a few pictures that day.. Totally thought I was going to toast my battery.. But it held up better than any of my samsung devices..
The Axon ZTE 7 A2017 has the most smart power!!! I dont have to worry for the whole day charging my Monster!!!
I agree with all the comments here the battery is really good, pair with fast charging if necessary is a winner !!!!
Same here I'm enjoying the battery life on this bad boy!
I would also say it's not too bad.. still 25% remaining after 5h DOT
Agree! On at 6:30 am and still at 86% - light use. 1 phone call, a few texts and 10 or so minutes checking the news. My note would have been 70-75% by midday with about the same use. Power save mode on both phones. Very happy with this phone.
I started this thread and I'm still pretty happy with the battery life but this evening I noticed the phone was a bit hot. First time I've noticed that. It drained from 45% to shutdown in 10 minutes. This is what my Oneplus One used to do. How can the same sh*t happen to the same guy twice?

Sounds like you've got a rogue app in three background that's forcing your CPU to max out and keeping it there even when not in use. There were a couple kernels on the oneplus one (including stock) with bugs like that, but it's not a kernel issue with the axon because otherwise others would have seen this. I'm betting it's a bad app.
I had just installed Kayak. Battery back up now. I'll see if I can reproduce the issue.
I cannot see the usage of apps. Any solution? I also can't see it in the system battery settings.
My buddy has this phone and literally flawless. i mean it works. it lasts. its powerful. has amazing SQ. and im over here with a friggin note 7 barely squeezing 16 hours out of it with3-4 hours DOT/SOT.
Not to mention XDA and everyone gets it wrong. its a 3250mah battery not a 3140mah

I use spotify or pandora via BT. we drove the same distance. same time etc. i lost 17% he lost 5%. both were fresh rebooted and waited 10 minutes. closed all apps and screen NOT in use. no wifi no nfc no nothing.
Can't wait for the battery life to further improve with android 7.1 and maybe even eventually a custom kernel
I'm getting minimum 6hrs of screen on time and i'm very satosfied with this performance

took it down from 100% to 1% and was just over 6hrs SOT. couldn't be happier at the moment ?
how is your signal strength and what carrier do you have?
My most recent battery charge shows 5hrs of SOT with 2 hrs straight gaming in King's raid and about 40 min of Google maps navigation and it's at 15% left.
Cell levels were fluctuating yellow to red for the first 3/4 of the charge but once i went downtown to work, it's all green. I'm with Verizon.
I've been really impressed so far - pushing 7 hours. Not the consistent 7.5 my short-lived S8+ got, but a huge step up from my Nexus 6P's 4 hours.
not bad

easily hits 5.5 hours SOT with LTE usage full day and Location off.
Love the phone! Just need a custom ROM now
I can confirm that I'm getting good screen on time too. Around four and a half to 5 hours. This is a lot better than I was getting on my old Nexus 6p. So far I'm very impressed but will do further testing and post the results here.
Today is my second day with this phone... Got about 3 1/2 hours SOT with everything on and screen to full brightness. I assume you guys have brightness turned down and gps off?
Wow
After first full charge I'm blown away ?
My old S7E would have been well and truly on zero battery by now.
42 percent battery left and just over 5 hours SOT!!
This phone sips on the battery, battery life has been outstanding to say the least.

What's with the full brightness, I get blinded if brightness is pushed to the max
First day and first full charge, pretty impressive. Only downside is the camera is so bad compare to my old s7e.

I have to say compared to my HTC U11 the battery life of the Essential is pretty impressive. I use Accubattery to monitor my battery and it gives estimates on SOT and the U11 was always at 8hr but this Essential is at 11hr. I know that will never happen but it does show the difference calculated by the app based on use.
Right now I'm at 4hr SOT and 52%. Very impressive.

What apps you have running? Also what is your awake to screen ratio? Might have some apps in the bg eating your battery.
My brightness is at 50% with bt disabled, location on. I get around 6-7 SoT bout 1.5 hrs of gaming and an hour of YouTube
GPS on. I've never used a phone at max brightness. All my devices are set at 30%, with adaptive brightness on. Bt on also.

9 hours + Sot is simply amazing
Unbelievable
I'm using Zenfone max pro m1 I do usally have god & mobile data on all time for me it is just 5 hours to 6hours !
And to be frank I fell this is similar or less to my previous Redmi note 4 !!
Was expecting more I think all due to miui optimisation
im getting insane 12 Hours SOT....maybe bcz im using only a single 4g sim and wifi most of the time but this is still great battery backup
I got this one.
Good enough for me.
Great battery life with 45mins of gaming, lots of YouTube,browsing, chatting, camera,etc with 4G connection full time 4G connection.
Getting great screen-on time with Asus Pro M1, best I have seen in my experience of use on any Android Device. Getting SOT of over 12 hours plus with 33 percent battery still left in the tank. My usage has been 90 percent of the time on WiFi and 10 Percent on 4g , with continues browsing , updating of all the old apps, few pics, streaming 15mins of youtube and checking msgs on WhatsApp with display brightness set to 20 percent, Rest all of the apps in the background are disabled to use any data or notifications turned off and battery saver n data saver both enabled . This device is absolutely beast in terms of battery life, fantastic for any kind of user, I am expecting to hit close to 14:30 hrs to 15 hrs SOT with such usage.
Using this phone today for heavy gaming such as arena of valor, crossfire legends, and pubg. And also streaming music from soundcloud on my trip, it takes 4 hours streaming. On 4g mostly. So yeah, it's my heaviest usage I guess.
Looking good though.

Looking good you say ? My Mi Max 2 could do 12-15hours of SoT. Looks like Pro M1 doesn't optimised well even tho its 5000mah but last just like the Redmi Note 4 with 4000mah..Too bad asus..too bad. Hoping for MiUI rom for it

No, it's my heavy usage test. That usage test based mostly on gaming and music streaming for long time. I'm not testing the normal usage yet.
And I've used Nokia Lumia 640 XL. Trust me. The battery performance is on par with this phone when I used it also for gaming. And for normal usage, the battery backup is enough for 2 days (which is I haven't tested on my asus yet). Better than redmi note 3 imo.

So that 7hrs of SoT was a heavy usage ? Sounds like a disappointment to me. My Mi Max 2's minimum SoT always get 12hrs SoT without fail with heavy usage..15hrs if using 100% wifi
Sot not heavy usage though

Confirmed, the battery performance of this phone are little bit better than Lumia 640 XL
Good battery life on this thing!
But could be more optimized ?
Almost matching up with my Lenovo P2's Beast Battery (The record was 19 Hours SOT)!!
My device gives 9hrs to 12 hrs of sot. Always on 4g , 2 hrs of gaming (tekken) , rest wtsapp , youtube web browsing etc.
On 4G .. 7 hrs. YouTube .. 1.75 hrs. WhatsApp .. 2 hrs. VLC movie .. 30 min. Calls

You got 8 hours on the regular one? I used to have the 3A XL but then gifted it to someone and an now using an galaxy S9. Really miss having a pixel though so am thinking about picking up the regular 3A and was wondering how the battery would differ

Yes it's the 3a. I think i could get more SOT without gaming.
From full charge to zero, I could get about 10hrs of screentime consecutively browsing, but that's not how I use my phone. In 48hrs of 'normal usage' I get about 5hrs of screentime.
I do about 3-6 hours of BT audio streaming daily which is why there is a larger than normal screen off usage. Still nice average SOT. I have so many sessions because I try to keep my battery between 50 and 80% for longevity.
I get 8 good hours.
What does Android 10 Battery say? Screen usage since full charge? Also Full charge lasts about???
Mine says 1 day 11 hours of typical usage. I always charge at night so it has rarely if ever run out.

Worse, on the best day you can get 6.5-7 hours on the regular. On the XL it's possible to get 9-10
I got my pixel 3a a couple weeks ago and struggling the last week or so getting more than 3.5 or 4 hrs SOT. I did use GPS for a 2 hour drive home today but it's 3p and I'm down to 10%. Idunno what's going on.

the app usage of 66% is a clue. maybe you got some crazy app eating up battery. if you have bluetooth and/or wifi scanning on continuously that can drain a bit. gsam can be setup to show which app is using most by doing the adb command. just select apps for the details if you have not already.

Here we are after factory reset and flashing the latest OTA from
https://developers.google.com/android/images
Still can't hit 4 hrs SOT. Not once. I really don't know what to do at this point. Incredibly frustrating with everyone else on this thread having MUCH better results.
GSAM is showing some pretty beefy wakelocks on that "RemoteSoundTriggerDetection" and "*alarm*", ActivityManager-Sleep, etc.
I bought it from Best Buy. Should I go up there and see if they'll replace (highly doubt it) ? Maybe flash a custom kernel?
screen on time is a function of what a person normally does with a phone. one way to get high screen on time is you could set display intensity to 25% and timeout to 30 min. if you need that number to be higher. just let the screen be on as much as possible. when you first got it did you fully charge it then fully discharge it then fully charge again? screen on time is about the last metric i ever think about. i don't understand at all why it's so important. i'd be willing to bet some users set intensity to 20% and time out to 30 min or always on and do very little else then they get s.o.t. of 8-9 hrs or higher and think it's great when it's a joke. that's the way i look at it anyway.

Not sure if you're replying to me but I'll answer anyway. Yes I fully charged it then fully discharged it then fully charged again when I first got it.
It's not the SOT that is so worrisome but the constant Android system and kernel drain on my device.
I'm getting worse battery life on my 6 week old 3a than my 2.5 yo OnePlus 5 which wasn't good to begin with. This device was lauded for having excellent battery life and I'm not seeing it.

It isn't that at all. I found using it for anything where the phone needs to utilize the GPU a lot, like gaming, drains battery substantially. "Light" workloads, like web browsing, using social media apps, streaming video, etc give you really good battery life. Once I start up a game, I see about 5-6 hrs compared to 9.5 hrs if I just stream YouTube, check the XDA app, email, Reddit, etc.

Light to medium usage. Mostly browsing on wifi. 120hz fhd, 1st full charge.
Can't upload the screenshot, but I got 3.5h SOT with 12h off charger and 53% left.
Very satisfied, coming from s10+ exynos, which would already be below 40% with this kind of usage.
4h15 with 120hz qhd quite heavy usage alot of gaming installing apps. And Twitter
Do you guys are running last update? Someone said with new update battery lasts longer
Yep, updated in the meantime to 10.5.4 and it seems that battery lasts even longer. I thought it maybe the second full charge, but it might be effect of the update as well.
Right now at 72%, FHD 120Hz, with 2:35 screentime, 10h off charger. I would say 9h SOT should be attainable.
Hi, here are my stats. Keep in mind I'm always on QHD+ 120Hz with 50-80% brightness and Wi-Fi enabled.
1st charge (16/04): 5h40 (Heavy usage, even got overheating alert during transfer with OnePlus Switch)
2nd charge (17/04): 7h20 (on fw 10.5.4, which seems to improve the battery), with 5 hours of "Darkness Rises" and 2+ hours of YouTube
3rd charge (18/04): 7h10, 4+ hours of YouTube, ~2 hours of social apps.
Never got that much with my 7 Pro or my 6T.
Overall not too impressed. Seems a lot lower than many of you guys are getting. This is the second day of use. Day one was a similar story. Ended the day at 30% with less than 4 hours SOT. QHD+, 120hz, medium-high brightness, almost all on 5G, latest 10.5.4 update. My 6T with a custom kernel would get twice as much SOT and end the day at about 25-30%. I get I'm asking a lot more of the battery here, but it should be better no?
Not bad so far ,from 100 to 48% was all.on 4G,then from 48 to 23 mainly WiFi,screen set 120 Hz QHD

I'm also having 6T..
Don't expect this battery life .. you'll never get the battery from 6T..
Don't forget that 6T is 60hz, FHD, 4G,
OP8pro 120hz, QHD, 5G( 5g is Battery eater) ...
Have to admit that battery life is disappointing me..
I've got 8h with 120hz + qhd in auto, wifi . Games + normal usage.
Had one full charge... currently sitting at 25% battery remaining, 24 hours since last full charge (forgot to switch the socket on last night!), 3hrs 43mins screen time. Regular usage, mainly business, social media and a bit of gaming.

Yeah I think the main culprit is the 5G. Until now I've had the phone at work during the week and stayed on 5G. Today I'm on WiFi and it seems a lot better already. Pretty early still so we will see.
As I do not have 5g in my area or a 5 g SIM ,I have changed my network settings to 4g/3g only
About 6.5 hours SOT. Just normal use (I dont game)
Getting better ,this is just in wifi today and battry use over night is a trickle
9 + hours. 2 days
WiFi
4G
Location
BT 1 device
120Hz @fhd (literally no point using QHD)
Calls
Text
App usage in screen shots.
Pure stock 5.5 BA
Pretty sure I can break 10 hours.
Battery saver came on at 10%
Yet another long SOT, I've been stuck in the house but have played a few games, been on WhatsApp, XDA telegram and slack throughout the day.
WiFi and 4G always on.
Not going any lower than 10%
I think with device learning and optimised updates for the OS and chipset that these SOT scores will only improve.
Some more stats, all of this on 4G no WiFi use .I thinks it's easily a 7 hr SOT device ,more if using WiFi

You using QHD or FHD? Honestly I don't see a benefit to QHD, turn it off.
Oh and do not charge overnight mate. Trust me.
