I get at least double that on mine. Have you done a full discharge cycle? I'm on my 3 cycle and I seem to be averaging about 8 hours of normal usage.

Games, music and facebook. You were using your phone heavily. What did you expect? There is no nuclear battery.

Hey guys, I have a question...its kinda off-topic and...dumb. The GSM version is the "normal" Nexus or the 4G LTE Nexus?
Sent from my E15i using XDA App

3hrs 30min of screen on time, and your phone was awake like 90% of the battery cycle. That's pretty much normal...
You were actively heavily using your phone for hours at a time. What the hell did you expect?

I have no complaints. On this charge I did a bunch of reading with Aldiko, playing with Maps and Earth, and some Flick Golf and a bunch of text messages. I don't think I had a single phone call. Screen on time was just over 3 hours. At this rate I could get an entire 24 hours on a single charge.

Very strange ..... takes me around 45-50mins

Mine's the best I've had on an Android phone, my Optimus 3D used to last around 8 hours, my desire around 10, my G1 around 18 (this shows how I use it and what I have running).
The GN lasts around 24 hours, in fact, since I got it around 3 weeks ago I've only been in the red twice.
I went out for my sons 2nd birthday 2 weeks ago, from 10AM until 3PM I was filming a LOT (including using the light when indoors) as well as taking photos. by 4PM it was still at 50%
and I'm loving how quick it charges!

Also, takes me around 1-1.5 hours to full charge...but I am not using the bundled adapter though...
The battery is definitely way way way better than the Optimus 3D.

1.5 hours seems to be normal! take me that long from about 10% to 100% via AC

My last phone took me 2-3 hour for a FULL CHARGE. I think my GN cannot be charged completely.

I'd say the battery life is pretty normal and standard for an android phone. Nothing commendable but not horrible either. It serves the purpose as it should.

I've been reading this thread and I have the same issue on my Sensation (but I am also running a early alpha of 4.0). Last night it took me 2 hours to fully charge my battery, so there is a possibility that it is the software and not the Nexus itself.

3 hours of screen on time with basically zero other usage other than what appears to be a few minutes of some motorcycle game?
Are you just turning your screen timeout to infinite, turning the phone on, and letting it sit to see how long it goes?

Wow, that's pretty good. You could theoretically get ~6 hours screen time with the entire battery which was unheard of prior to 4.0.4. I believe it was generally accepted that approximately 4 hour screen time is usually the max.

THAT is the actual battery improvement, the phone itself uses like next to none to run now, only the screen draining. I went from around 25% Android OS to like 3-4% (as well as other core apps went down).
I use my phone extensively (although no games), and my screen % is like 75-80% (at 95% of the time being minimum brightness [5])

Android OS used 3-4% before the update as well. The ~25% was a bug in AOSP 4.0.2 and 4.0.3. It just showed high use, but wasn't actually draining that much.

No story here. Just a fixed bug.

I'd think that a lot of this power savings comes from not using the LTE modem and just using CDMA. But I'm probably wrong. Makes me wish the 4.0.4 update would arrive here.

I'm seeing modest improvements:
autobrightness, 2h music, 4h 3g data, rest of wifi, stock kernel, interactive 350-1200
This is pretty good for stock kernel compared to 4.0.2 . It's slightly better than what I usually get with imo's kernel on 4.0.2

Who said that galaxy nexus sucked at battery wise?

Hey I just wanted to share my thoughts about the battery life after using it for the very first 2 days.

This is what I got after using it for watching a lot of videos on youtube, take some pictures/1080p video, listen to music and some web browsing over wifi. Not data connection and brightness in automatic ( used it indoors and outdoors )
4 hours screen time I think its pretty decent, its almost what I used to get with my galaxy note.
So very impressed with the battery, becouse I always heard that it sucked. Whats more, I already bought one 2000mA becouse of these comments. I guess I will get even better battery life then

Does this seem like OK battery life?

I'm running kyanROM with minimal use. Took it off charger at 6 am listen to Bluetooth streaming I'm my car. Driving to school. Out at 12, barely no use at work and its at 53% I have an extended battery. Usually I listen to music all at work and by the time I get home at 11 its under 20%. I've seen people get 2 days out of theirs with over 8 hours of screen time...... something just doesn't seen right with battery life. Any ideas?

That is SUCH a subjective question to ask. There are so many different variables that can effect battery life. What apps you have installed, which ones were running. Seeing as you are not using a stock battery, it makes it a even more difficult question to answer. Personally, I'd be happy with those specs

May be you should do Battery Calibration and wipe battery stats at 100% Charge and test again.

It all depends on what is running and what you use, such as taskillers and synced items. But 15h is good battery life. I get about 11 but almost 3 hours of that is screen on time.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium

Something is definitely hijacking your battery. Or at least those stats make that seem very likely. I would try another ROM and use the stock battery. Some(mostly all) of the cheap extended batteries are only really good for the first couple charges, for some reason they just can't hold one after that. Had a very similar problem on my captivate only to realize the extended battery was the problem. The stock battery on that phone ended up giving me over 4x the life.

Install Juice Defender.. i installed it when i saw my phone couldn't last more then 18h and now( well when i had it) i go push it 2-3 days on my normal use that i was doing.. just by installing Juice Defender.
also when WiFi is not around you should take it off.. and LTE takes a lot of battery life. just saying.
also when you go to bed on travel and don't have a charger.. Put it on FLIGHT MODE you will only lose like 1% of battery after 8 h of sleep

Install "GSam Battery Monitor"
it should help you to find out what process in Android System is draining your battery

Battery Guru for snapdragons

Have any of you used this app? I think it's worth at least trying out. I've been using it now for a few days and it seems to have helped increase my battery life. A lot of times before I would get about 2.5 hrs of screen time and now I've noticed I've been getting almost 3.5 hrs...almost, but still good improvement nonetheless.
*It goes into learning mode for about 2-3 days before actually starts helping save battery.
It's free in the playstore, you guys should check it out if you didn't know about it already
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Been using it for two days, after initial 2 days learning, and for me it has increased my battery life by a ridiculous amount. I work in an area with little to no service and my phone is almost always searching. I would unplugmy found around 5 am and would be at 30-40% by noon. Apon checking my phone for the past two days its been at about 75%. So I love it!!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Yeah usually I don't really believe in apps claiming to save battery now because none of them ever really worked for me. But this app is made for phones specifically using snapdragon processors and actually works, pretty damn good too.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

It must have gotten better from when it first launched because it absolutely DECIMATED my battery life in the first versions! Maybe I'll try it again.
Admittedly, I'm running root66 MD5 and I'm getting the best battery life I've ever gotten without undervolting and the ROM has been extremely stable for me so I'm sticking with it for now... maybe my constant ROM flipping was messing up the app. I'll give it another shot.

I tried it for a week and it wasn't even doing anything at all...
Just get battery doctor from the market should do.

All I know is that I never came close to 5 hours until upgrading to MD5...

To be honest, I haven't noticed really any difference. I'll get some screenshots later tonight if you'd like, but overall, if there were any battery savings, they have been minimal. Notice my screen-on time in the original screenshot. I really am not a power user. I only ever have to charge my battery during the day if I've been gaming on it or if I have a rogue app chewing up battery. I usually go 12-14 hours and have 25-30% left with less than 2 hours screen-on time. I don't use task killers, however I reboot my phone daily before I pull it off the charger.
