Currently my phone is showing me are remaining battery life period of three days at this point of 74% charge but I definitely know that it is not three days but still it is a very good standby after 2 days with this massive 5000 mAH battery , You can expect this kind of life definitely

Easily 8plus hrs sot on light usage
Kinda 10 % per hour drain

Insane
is a one word. I think I can do better though.

This is my light usage. Actually forgot to take other parts' screenshots but you can also check my other messages on "screen on time" thread. My SoT record was 16.5 h and this was my phone idle record.

11 days standby with SOT of 10h. And yes I actually do use the phone. Everything disabled when not in use. Mainly 4G browsing, phone calls, music

I am about to buy The Max Pro M1 as a secondary phone only for gaming, watching youtube and email. However, I'd heard that there are some idle draining issues. Is it fixed already ?
Big thank.

On light usage at least 3 days without charge and 11-12 hours of SOT.

Easily lasts a day with full day data on and full night gaming upto 2 am. I rarely use charger before 2 am. I think they did a pretty good job on that one.

Battery can always be improved, but the Mate 9 does a better job than any phone I have owned previously.
I'm very happy with the endurance, just hit 20% after almost 48 hours off charge with less than 2% a hour battery drain. If I don't pluf it in I'm sure I can get 8 hours SOT. I posted the total battery history. I think it's fairy impressive

Honestly I think the AOD barely effects it. I have AOD on and after being off the charger for 3 hours with light use, a few texts and checking email, I've only gone down 1%.
HI All,
I have had my G6 since this Friday that pasted. I haven't had a phone this good for a long time. I previous owned a LG V10 and this phone just out performs all my other phones. Its fast has a battery life that i have very pleased with. So far I have played games most of the day and i make it home with about 20%. If i charge my phone while driving I have about 60% when i get home. I purchased Three anker USB C cables, they seem good but its a very snug fit.
I also have yoo tech glass on the phone which was a awesome deal.
I am using Spigen LG g6 Tough Armor its very small but strong.
sometimes on los 14.1 fastcharge isn't working. Else super fast.
endurance with los could be better
What is the longest standby time anyone has got from a full charge with light use? My max is just over 47 hours with very little use but I have some standby drain issues. Has anyone had this phone off the charger for 72 hours or more?
On light use honestly i get 6-8h of SoT and yeah i am not kiding.
Easily lasts me the whole day, although the drain can be variable even with seemingly the same usage pattern. But even under the worst scenario I am left at the end of a day with 30-40% left. So I charge every night-- what else can you ask for?
I'm easily getting 7:30am to 9pm with light to moderate use throughout the day and have 30% left.
With my daily moderate-to-heavy usage, I'm consistently getting at least 4-5 hours SoT with always-on display enabled and my brightness around 50%. Gets me through the day just fine. I usually get home with 20-30% remaining. If I use my device lightly, I could probably get at least 5-6 hours SoT.
I made it to 6hrs SoT today. I had music playing from Spotify in the background the entire day.

Enough for 8 hours of SOT and 48 hours of usage. Could be much better though.
I'll get two days with light use. Short phone calls, some social media use, and Youtube while on the can. Even with heavy use (meaning lots of web browsing)...I'll still get more than 24 hours from the battery.
I get about 6 - 7 hours of SoT. Which easily gets me through 2 days.
I give this phone an "A1" for light use if you know what I mean...( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
okay I'll help myself with the door
4 days, 1.5 hrs charging OOTB FeelsGoodMan

Screen on time

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 before depleting the battery.

Nobody seems to be leaving feedback for SoT, I'm very interested to see this. How is SoT right out of the box, and what have you done to make things better? Did any of you try out any custom ROMs?

Its better than the realme 3 pro and note 7 pro but its not like 5000mah capicity, feels like 4400 or 4500 because its os is bloted and not smooth very heay skinned ios clone
SoT
I get around like 9 hours at heavy usage. I was using the lenovo p2 before so it isn't actually very impressive. Its better than most phones out there tho. There is a low power mode but why would i turn down my performance for a minor battery improvement. I guess you can make it upto 10 hrs with that mode.

Battery is impressive. I get consistently 10 hour SOT on this phone. And I love the system wide dark mode.
Easily 10+ hours sot for normal usage, browsing, WhatsApp, line, manga, little gaming (drastic, brawl stats, bang dream). Normally charge once in 1.5 to 2 days

Any issues anyone after the new update 1.7.5 battery or heating?
SoT varies heavily
I had the previous version Lenovo Vibe P1. It consistently gave me 10+ hrs of SoT until its death by battery swelling last year. I was initially apprehensive to go for a 6.5 inch screen phone as had an HTC Flyer which was a 7inch Tablet and had a usable 6.5 inch screen due to its status bar and Task Bar in Honeycomb. However, it has been a standard lately where if you are looking for a battery of 5000+ mAh then the condition is it comes only in mobiles with screen sizes upwards of 6.4 inch. The additional pixels and screen sizes eats up battery quickly but not as much because of the efficient processors that comes along nowadays. I wished it had a 6000+ battery
I was surprised that Z1Pro initially gave me <7hrs of SoT. I did call up vivo and complained to them about the same. Their response was as the system gets to know your usage as time goes by the battery will improve and give a more 9+ hrs, which came true after a couple of weeks of usage. I don't play games much, however my primary usage is content consumption and ebook reading which thankful to its large screen is comfortable with the Aldiko/Kindle App. Moreover, I'm hooked to listening to music on Bluetooth on my TWA pods which gives me more than 3.5 hrs of music play per earpod. This barely eats the battery but the primary App is "Android System" which is typically eating 30-35% of the battery in the background.
Here are the SoT stats of the Z1Pro below for a 30 day period
"Total CPU Usage" "CPU (foreground)" "Maintaining Awake Sc "Awake Duration" Power Comsumed
Android System 70:41:07 00:40:35 01:25:30 02:44:06 25% 2:37:14
WhatsApp 11:11:56 08:10:44 00:25:38 19:54:13 14% 22:52:10
Prime Video 06:21:50 06:18:44 00:20:43 12:05:53 5% 39:11:30
Kindle 09:41:41 05:16:38 00:06:10 08:52:22 4% 35:20:13
Phone Idle Services 309:14:14 5% 973:58:32
RF Service 396:25:02 6% 1040:27:55
I had been charging upto 80-82% after battery depletes under 10% for 9 times out of 10. After 10th time, I charge it to 100% then again 80-82% everytime battery depletes under 10%... This I do it to collect Battery Stats for the usage. Getting 2.75-3 days worth of Battery life after charging to 80-100%

Google did a good job with Stanby drain. I'm getting 0.7-1.0 % drain per hour.
The first few days battery life was horrible. While it's improved, I do question WTF is going on with it. I've had screen on time less than 20 minutes today and it's at 88%. Granted I'm playing pokeymon go for half that but still. My Pixel 3 was better.
After having it for a week the battery has improved significantly for me. Under light usage (social media, few YouTube videos etc) I'm at half battery 22 hours since last full charge.
It's pretty amazing considering the battery size. Plus they will probably improve it more with firmware updates
How's everyone's battery? I'm in a s10+ now but wanna possibly go back to a pixel. I want a smaller phone but can't decide between the 4 or the xl cuz of battery
For me it has been terrible, worse than my Moto Z2 Force with the same battery capacity and a 2 year old processor, even worse, the phone is actually slower in day to day apps except games. It also keeps less apps in memory against my European Z2 Force running Android 9 Pie and 6GB of RAM. Only got 3 hours of screen on time and had to charge at 7PM from 8AM.
I'm sending it back in the morning.
