Google Play Services is responsible for location services, and many more. Lots of activities that you use on your phone fall under that group.

The posters below are right. I thought I had Location History on and was getting good battery life, but I don't. It seems you can turn Location History on in general, but still have it turned off for each phone on the Google account.
I'll have to try turning it on when I'm traveling to see how it impacts my battery life.

It's Google locations pinging. It completely went away for me when I turned off location settings.

same here, turn off location history solved my problems.

Awake issue?

Hey so I'm using call's latest tomorrow off of el29 and when I go to my battery stats I have a huge awake bar when my screen off is empty. Is this called a rogue application in the background that can't sleep?

Get Better Battery Stats from the marketplace. Reboot phone and wait 30 mins or so to get some data. Go into BBS and view Partial Wakelocks. This should give you an indication of what MIGHT be causing your problem. Don't freak when you see the results, wakelocks aren't always a bad thing, but if you do have a 'rogue app' it could be there.
PM me w your results if ur not sure how to interpret.
You have an app that is frequently syncing. You can see the equally spaced intervals. Just fine the app that you have set to frequently sync/update.

Does this battery usage look right to you?

On my Note 3 I remember Google Play Services being lower usage.
I also never saw Unified Daemon come up.

That isn't the battery usage screen, that is the location services screen. All that is saying is that those programs are hitting the GPS/location services and the type of hit they are using (high battery, or low battery). Plus those are relative, High battery doesn't mean excessive battery, it just means more than low battery use.
Check under the battery option in the menu system to get the traditional chart and % usages.

Maybe the yellow cellular signal? I know at my job, I have to turn on airplane mode and turn on WiFi cause all the red/orange signal I get kills my battery even if I'm not turning my screen on.

If you look at the flat section just before the end of the green, that's when the device was in doze. Before that the device was not entering doze, either because it was in use or was detecting movement. But looking at the graph doze is working properly, 3 days left.. Definitely working as it should.

I am using pia vpn (permanently on) and this app manages to drain my battery clean ev

Is this because os level tweaks between android 7 vs 6 or is there something I can try? Btw, already using medium power saving mode.

Seems to work much better after reinstalling.
No, the app will drain your battery no matter what.
Its performing encryption decryption constantly for an always on connection.
e.g. S10+ PIA most of the day with moderate to heavy usage sees PIA app with about 45% battery usage!!! F*ck!!!

Performance Mode

Do you always keep performance mode on? Do you notice a significant hit to battery?
Have never turned it on. No need IMO.
I did since day one, haven't tried with it turned off though, and the battery is incredible. Have no idea if turning it off would provide even better battery.
I never used it. Tried it today and things are noticably snappier especially when streaming YouTube or Music and surfing the web or checking this Forum. Battery life hasn't been affected either. This Phone is TOO SWEET!!!!
