Battery life and usage - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

well every time a new phone comes out, early reviews are mixed with some having terrific batter while others are having a dreadful one. Theres only one way to have a scientific approach to measure a battery life, and it is to use a standardized test on the phone with most commonly used settings on and others off and no applications installed etc. Since that is hard to do lets just use a poll.. Whats your uptime, SOT and some major setttings...like below
UPTIME: 24hours
SOT: 6H15mn
Connectivity: LTE
Settings: Auto brightness, gmail sync
also put up screenshots of the battery tab so we can see the usage, not just people just starring at a black screen

thanks for voting guys but its also crucial that you post the infos as described that way we can help fellow members with bad battery life

This can't be accurate; the GSM signal power and quality differs for every user and it's an important factor to consider. If I use my phone in two different locations in my city I'll have different results.

Yes there are many factors that impact the battery life unless we all run the same battery benchmark on airplane mode with default configuration and no apps installed, battery life is not comparable but it's just to get an average

The new chip is just bad. This won't get fixed.
You can try to use a custom battery savings mode and just enable the CPU limiter, it'll cap performance to the S8 but battery will be quite a lot better.

I can get a day or more but its no match for the Mate 10 Pro I had before

Sorry but won't post any screenshot as I have to put in charge everyday around 3 pm, unplugged at 7 am, to make sure battery will last til the end of the day =(
My previous 3 phones were S8+, Note 8 and Iphone X, all I can say is that S9+ battery life is much worse compared to the 3 of them.
Expecting an update to fix that, if it doesn't come in the next 10 days I'll return my handset.

You realise leaving it charging over night knackers the battery because it keeps trying to top up which over time puts a lot of extra wear and tear on it

You realize I've been doing that for 20 years with no issue at all?
Sorry if my first post was not clear : I put the phone to charge (induction) when going to bed around 1am, unplug it in the morning around 7am and have to do a complementary charge in the afternoon .

very good
The more it consumes internet over mobile data the power decreases. However, good at all

I don't want to disappoint you. But my previous phone was S8+. Unfortunately with the official update to Oreo the battery performances was a little bit worse than S9+.
Agree with the fact that with Android 7 Galaxy s8+ had a better battery life. But with Oreo... that's another story.

Bump this as some users are reporting very bad battery life while most can achieve 5-7 hours easily please participate in the poll

I have the SD variant S9+ and I'm in the very bad battery life camp.

I am also in the bad battery camp... I can get about 2-3 hours of SOT before it just craps out and I just spent 800$ on this thing. I'm ready to return it myself.

I'm on exynos and really enjoying my battery life. Anywhere between 5.5 - 7.5hrs sot depending on how I use the phone.

Rocking on 6 or 7 hours sot with all social apps, pubg mobile, Twitch, YouTube, discord.. Exynos version. Who has bad battery should move to Apple because u can't even make your android smartphone have a good battery.

This is better SOT than I've ever gotten from any smartphone I've owned. 5 hours SOT and still 38% left.

Standby time is amazing, too. 9 hours overnight used only 5%.

The battery life for this phone is good. The standby battery life is not great. I don't get a good signal at my job, so when I get in I cut off my data. With the data off, the phone is still draining battery.
However, if I'm in a good signal area or on Wi-Fi, I can get 6-7hours sot.

Onscreen time. Please share your GSAM

Some reviews reporting terrible SOT with Redmi Note 2. Share your gsam and thoughts.
The first few ROMs were poor. On the 5.9.18 developer ROM from xiaomi.EU (multi language version of official China Developer ROM) the most I've been getting is between 4 and 5 hours. I'm using a different launcher and widgets now though which probably doesn't help the situation. It's certainly a lot worse than my little Jiayu G4S which has a similar sized battery, 4.7" screen an older SoC. It's a shame that I now have a mediatek device with decent GPS but I have to use it sparingly if I'm out cycling. Doh!
Hmm.. Thank you for your reply. It sounds manageable but somewhat disappointing. Any other reports are welcome.
I'm lucky if I manage 3 . On the latest developer with Google Apps installed installed. This is greenify and low screen brightness.
Just can't seem to get over three hours.
Any tips would be great.
Why would you even use Greenify when MIUI has multiple battery saving options already built-in? I can get 4-5 SOT with 2 SIM cards, 3G/4G, wifi on, internet browsing, texting, GPS and sync on. No gaming, though. Also depends how long it's idle.
Sent from my Redmi Note 2
Will give it a try. Uninstalled greenify. Will see how I get on.
Uninstalled greenify. Not much difference. Have now wiped my device and fresh installed 5.9.24 xiaomi beta and I've got my first 4 hours screen on time since getting my device.
5.9.18 usually 4.5-6 H SOT
Who makes your screen? 80% of my battery drain is my screen. Only got it on 20% screen brightness. Getting 18 hours system time and at very most 4 hours (usually just over three). Do you have sync turned on?
Tianma, sync turned off, also using contrast in standard mode. Now since I plugged off my phone from the charger, I'm using it all the time with 1.5h screen on and still have 86% battery.
Also I'm running Polish MIUI ROM, which is based on chinese ROM.

You might check if the processor is set to balanced versus performance. At least one benchmark program indicated a higher score using balanced instead of performance.

what rom do you use?
Using china rom 6.7.10.10 and greenify, I got 16 hours total, including 5 hours SOT and 2 hours talk time. The rom is very good, but the tianma's panel is really a battery hog.
Hi guys, still waiting for my phone. Maybe still one more week. Reading many thread about battery consumption it seems this is really a disappointing point for this phone.
Did you manage ton improve it with latest ROM?
Some people did require to perform battery recalibration. Did you try that?
Take care guys.

Just got this for 3 days.
All day 3G minimal wifi. Browsing mostly.
Friends. We find a solution for battery life. If you use mobile them forums for browsing,or whatsapp etc. use 2g . When will you use twitter,instagram etc switch 2g to 3g. My friends take 5-6 hour screen time. So If somebody make 2g-3g toggle or widget for Miui it would be AWESOME. Thanks.
Also when you use WIFI then change your preffered network type to 2G. It will impact your battery life however doesnt use mobile data.
I am getting quite bad battery life.
MIUI 7.
At home all day with strong signal.
On WIFI all day.
Almost no calls, bit of texting, 30 minutes of bluetooth music and some light gaming.
I expected better! With my old Sony Z2 i would still be at 65% with these kind of stats.
And here is my other Xiaomi product with excellent battery life, i mean WOW! http://i.imgur.com/zyRO2UE.png

Note 8 battery life

Tell me how much SOT yall are getting. Or battery life overall.
I have mine for one day hard to tell right now but I will update.
Great phone love it so far.
Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
I don't know what my SOT is but I am getting a full day out of it. I had to charge my Note 5 halfway through the day.
I came over from an S8 plus and the battery life seems the same. I was very impressed with the S8 plus battery life and was worried with the smaller battery but I am getting almost the same exact as with the S8 plus. Much better battery life than when I had the Note 7.
I will let yall know today since it will be my first full day on a full charge.

18hrs 4.5hrs SOT at 13%.
My average is decent lol. If you aren't getting the best life then turn off the background stuff (Wi-Fi, blue tooth, etc.)
EDIT** I just realized all my stuff was reset. Sorry lmao
I love the device but battery, like every samsug device, is basically awful for me. I am a heavy user, but I'm at 48% after only 3 hours. I think that's garbage. For the life of me don't understand why it isn't a little thicker with a 4800mah battery. It's what this device needs.It's like a Ferrari with enough fuel to go 30 miles.
BTW I also have a mate 9 (fabulous device) and that lasts 16 hours with me.
True it has a lower res screen but has a 4000mah battery.
I'm looking forward to the mate 10.

That's what I'm saying. I came from the 7 plus which lasted me all day. It has lower resolution but regardless the note8 has been dubbed as a media power house. As someone who uses it hours upon hours, it gets a little annoying having to charge it by 5 pm. I'm loving it though. That's my only complaint. Definitely never getting an apple device again
This was yesterday. The day before I had 6hr of OST.

Horrible battery life S9 plus exynos

Hey guys,
I just got an S9 plus exynos version a week ago and the battery life is horrible with me only getting around 2-3h SOT.
Any tips on how to improve it? you can see the stats here:

Just have a look at the below videos. Unfortunately, that's how the batterylife & performance of the Exynos version is, just like mine. Unless you tweak it with so many tweaks and workarounds(search the forum, there are many tweaks if you like to consider) like many others here, there isn't much hope unless Samsung seriously considers resolving this which is unlikely.
Yes it is correct the battery life on this s9plus is pathetic,
Even on my phone the android system is taking major amount of battery ,
I tried factory resetting my phone a few times but no luck .
Waitng for an update from samsung

In a statement, Samsung indirectly said that "the bad battery life is a non-issue", so an update isn't coming soon...

Your Android System is particularly high at 21% compared to your SOT.
Noticed that you're on 3G, it consumes battery a lot more compared to 4G.
How's the mobile coverage at your area?

I thought LTE consumed more battery than 3G... The reason was a problem with the network. Fixed now so I'm back on 4G. Lets see if it makes a difference
Well love the phone but the battery is the worst I've seen so far for the price u pay. People focus o SOT time but I do the same as on my old iPhone 7 plus but with the iPhone would last from awake to bed time with one charge S9 plus 2 times at least and with though about running out all the time. Shame brilliant phone.
I'm having great battery life on my Exynos 9+. See the attached screenshot.
Only disabled Bixby and AOD.
I use Facebook, Messenger, Snapchat, WhatsApp, GPS high accuracy and sync one Gmail and one IMAP.
For testing purpose I decided to run the whole day with medium battery saver activated, but modified to only restrict the CPU and lower the brightness a bit. That means still running max. resolution and syncing in the background.
Right now the phone still has 36% battery left with:
- 18 hours 33 minutes since unplugged
- 6 hour 30 minutes SOT (That is potentially 10 hours SOT with 24 hours since unplugged!)
- 10 minutes phone call.
Besides my regular usage pattern, I've also played a game a lot on this charge.
No complaints here yet, im getting 5hrs SOT and have only done a few charge cycles so i expect that to improve.
Im getting close to what i do on my pixel 2 xl so in my eyes thats impressive

I had an Exynos S8+, and battery life on that was pretty bad, with Android System also taking up more juice than the Screen. Now I'm on a Snapdragon S9+, and dare I say battery life has almost doubled. Android System battery usage is way below Screen battery usage.
Two steps which fixed the battery drain for me :
1. Changing the Location Settings from "High Accuracy" to "Battery Saving" {You can find this in Settings -> Connections -> Location}
2. Using 2.4Ghz WiFi instead of 5Ghz WiFi channel. My Router is a Dual Band Router and somehow when I connect to the 5Ghz Channel, the battery drain is almost doubled. Sticking to the 2.4Ghz Channel improves the standby time by quite a lot.
Hope this helps.

It's router specific. It only matters if you have a DualBand Router and you opted to connect to the 5Ghz Band.

Yes... The stand by time is really good on this phone... I had the phone off the charger for 8 hours and barely used it all day ( busy day at work ) and I was still at 89 Percent at the end of the day... It definitely takes a few cycles still you notice major major changes .
I have exinos and never had a worse phone regarding battery life and heating. I tried all possible solutions for increasong battery life but still I get only 3-4 hours of SOT with a total of about just 15 hours!!!
What iritates me the most is that I do not have mjch apps and all is set to sleep and everything possible but the phone still randomly gets super hot even when nothing is runing, which then drains the battery too.
The drain overnight is also bad, it is draining 1-2% per hour.
Poor battery life . Same result even after carrier sent a replacement.
cant believe that i have s9 plus exynos and battery life is really not good for me.
Battery vs Movie
Whenever I try to watch movie on my mobile. Then It takes only 30 minutes to empty battery. I don't know why this is happening to me. I spent a lot of money to buy this ****ty phone. :crying:
From iPhone 6 Plus to S9+ (battery worst?)
i have finished to migrate from iPhone 6 plus to S9 Plus (SnapDragon) but until now (only 1 day) the battery seems to be worst. i will wait for more days and search what i should to change to make the battery have a longer life. What turn off; what consumes more battery and so on.

iPhone's plus versions are better in total battery life. Used a iphone 7 plus for a year & seeing th difference. Refrain from doing anything on th SnapDragon.It would sattle itself.

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 Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Firs day note 10+ exynos.

This was my first day after battery learning usage patterns went away. This was actually like day 4 or 5 of owning the phone.
Not bad I'd say...
Here's a screenshot of my screen on time. I used to phone pretty happy today but this is my best so far. Yesterday the phone died at around nine and a half hours fuse lately I've been loving the consistency of the battery life on this phone. It's similar to the s10 plus in the fact that the more you use it the longer it lasts. Thankfully I've had zero issues with battery drain to my knowledge.
this is on a day off with all the Bluetooth tracking nonsense turned off,
Location on during the use of one specific app for about an hour and a bit,
Optimized setting on battery,
Sync on for Gmail, ig, etc
Wi-Fi turned on all day,
no always on display,
no adaptive brightness,
What are your thoughts if anyone has questions please let me know?
(Edit phone is at 1 percent with 10h and 12min)

Where do you see that learning patterns?
I actually never saw that on my phone, no matter which option I turn on or off.

Watching YouTube for over 5 hours would give most phones a high screen on time.

Snapdragon is better than Exynos so it will be a better performer

Here's a list
Sad
Terrible
Note 10+, adaptive brightness, dark mode, medium power saving mode on
Great reception and signal. Weak results.
Maybe a rogue app you got there. Check for any app crashes.
I'm not getting good battery life...
With brightness below 50%, max resolution, always on display... I have the exynos version.

Me too... battery sucks on my exynos, brightness 35%
Why??? 5h without game or video
Haven't really formally tested all the way to zero, but today at 80% I had about 2 hours of screen time. Now I'm at 63% with nearly 3 hours of screen time. So I'm thinking 6-7 hours of screen time with my daily usage, which is excellent for me.
Performance mode on, FYI. Brightness usually 50%+.
