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 LG G5 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I have the H860N (dual sim) on build v10c. Take note I am only using SIM1 as the second slot is used by my 64GB microSD (it's a hybrid slot).
1st test
Usage:
WiFi only
2G Mobile network only
A lot of YouTube watching, some photo shooting, social networking in Facebook/Twitter/Instagram, some casual gaming (One More Dash, Stacks, Piano Tiles 2, etc.) and a lot of browsing as well.

Can you go into detail?
1 week with g5 ordered from Clove...unlocked, stock rooted, with Xposedv83
Very little modification, using greenify and amplify
Been on 4g almost the entire day
Don't really know how you guys can get that kind of a screen on times..??

There is LG's official bootloader unlock program for the unbranded EU H850.once u do that(only for h850) there is TWRP built for it too
This was originally posted by me in the battery life thread:
Bit over a week with the phone.
H850 stock rooted v10c. Xposed v83
Used greenify and amplify;disabled and removed some stock apps, AOD and daydream off.
Let phone top up for 1hr after reaching 100%full charge
Best battery life I've had on a phone with no kernel manipulation yet...
I reached 7hrs SOT with like 5hrs YouTube and 20hrs on battery...but this was the 2nd day and I thought it was a fluke.this last cycle was post worthy these pictures were taken evening of 5/4 after almost 36hrs on battery. I've gamed,browsed,used camera,streamed HD video and been on mobile data for most of it...that's balanced but heavy use.
My only gripe is that Wi-Fi does seem to drain me more than mobile data(no tests yet to back that up) still coming from g3 this is incredible!
Who cares if the s7 gets better battery life this has a smaller battery that does better than other's in the g-series, and it's replaceable(unlike comparable devices) giving the device more longevity.
This battery life reminds me of my g2.

what apps did you disable/remove i struggle to get 3 hours screen on time and this phone is starting to really annoy me thanks in advance
Well, compared to the Galaxy S7 i own, the SOT honestly sucks. I barely get more then 3,5 hours with Medium usage. Removed most of the bloadware, disabled background data usage on most Apps and still i can't see alot improvement.
The most I ever got was 6 hours and 30 mins with 19 percent left. No Wi-Fi with LTE on, Bluetooth off and the screen no more than 35%brightness . I used to have the note 4 att version and only got 4.5 with every single bloat app disable. I have cm brower ,cm launcher no facebook just messanger and Google app running. I'm sure you guys won't believe it but I really get amazing battery life with this phone. I'm at 41 % with 3 hours and 30 mins and 11 hours 20 mins since I lasted plug it. I have the t mobile version and here are the apps I have disable.
Here are some screenshots
I really can't complaint with a mix of Wifi and LTE. It's not as insane as my S7 exynos but it last me through the day and I have the spare battery. I have not charged my phone in a couple of days now. Also standby time is the best I have ever seen on a smartphone.

WTH, the max SOT i manage to get is like 2hrs!
Currently battery at 32% after taking off charge 11 hrs ago.. SOT is 1hr 11m
Android OS is showing as using 19% battery.
I think it's time for a factory reset...
I think that will be my next purchase
3 hrs.

I get barely 3hrs of sot too with always on display.
Sorry wrong thread, post removed.
Some say that its 6 hours, some say its 3. Thats a huge gap and i dont know who to believe, but 3 hours seems more legit considering that battery size.
Yeah i don't know how they're getting 5-6HRs SOT that's just crazy! Considering the Battery Capacity only 2800mah

The phone is great but the battery really bothers me.
If I use my phone a bit it doesn't get me through the day. Sometimes i get as low as 8 hours of use with tops of 20 or so hours.
How do you manage it?

I use an Apex kernel and a 2000mah extended battery
Mines been great. Yesterday I was at 17+hrs which included over 3hrs of screen time and 1 hr of voice calls. I've only had my phone for less than a week, and have twice gotten over 4hrs of onscreen time (all with stock battery).
Running AOKP Milestone2 ROM with stock kernel.
I about a day and a half nearly 2 with stock and moderate use.
Batteries pretty damn good, you must have something installed that's eating it up. There's a good battery guide somewhere on these forums, usually helps track down the cause.
I usually get about 3 hours of screen time before I need to recharge. That should be normal.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
AOKP + Franco kernel + 2000 mAh
Got two days of battery life just now (1 day 20 hours, to be exact). That's with 2h18m of screen time and 4h2m of voice calls. Screen time is mostly due to text messaging, Facebook, Foursquare, Twitter and Google Currents, so I guess... light to moderate usage?
WiFi is always on, Data is off, Sync is on (except for FB sync), location services off. Didn't sign out of Talk, but did sign out of Latitude.
Also, since I installed Facebook, when you run it for the first time, it downloads a lot of background data, regardless of sync settings. I let it do its thing while it's still charging, and it was all good after that.
Using AOKP b20, Franco 13.1, and stock battery.
36 hours is the most I've gotten out of the phone, but I did screenshot this not too long ago.

I would say the stock battery is borderline adequate. I find that on the stock system, if I use the screen for more than 3hrs, and have all my services sync'd, bluetooth, a few calls once in a while... I would have a hard time struggling to get to the end of the day without the phone giving me a battery warning.
How I've managed it is to get the samsung 2000mah extended battery. It's not a dramatic difference, but enough to make it noticable.
As well, I've kept the screen to about 40%, used a dark wall paper, loaded franco kernal and tweaked some of the settings to be more battery efficient.
Overall, I think it's acceptable right now. At least for how I use it.
I also find that my battery drains quite a bit where I work as the cell signal is on the borderline between no signal and 1-2 bars. That's why I keep a charger at work as well as in my car to give it some extra juice.
I find the battery is actually quite good.
I upgraded from a blackberry tour, and with similar moderate use the nexus actually gets me more battery use. However both phones being idle the blackberry lasted for days.
Overall i'm never away from a power source i can charge my phone, so as long as it lasts me roughly 1 day i'm good
Stock battery
Rom: aosp self-built from aosp master branch
Kernel: at the time, franco's nightly #8 or #11, can't remember exactly
Usage: light (3h screen on)
Went almost 3 days on one charge.

two days. Medium use.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I got my nexus 4 days ago.. Since then im harassing my phone.. Literally.. Im constantly installing application, customizing the homepages, making icons, widgets etc, surfing on web, exploring the market. 100% of time, Wifi or mobile data is in use (although i got unlimited data plan here (with speed of 4 mbits and 1 mbit upload), my wifi is more faster than mobile data.).
So i havent had a day with "normal" or "moderate" use on my GN.. And, battery lasts for over 24 hours.. And, autosync is always on, brightness is on 40% aprox, screen sleep 45 seconds (basicly its not sleeping cause im harassing it all the time )
Im all stock to the bone, just unlocked bootloader and rooted..
Im wondering what will happend when i start using my phone with moderate usage ..
Hmmm there are some interesting answers on this thread. The battery and the low sound have been the sole disappointments for me on the GN.
I get about 3.5 hours screen time before i have to recharge.
I guess if i turned everything off i could get better performance battery wise. But why would i spend almost $300 on a phone only to not use it? I am complete stock at the moment because i don't want to void the warranty but while i waiting for 4.0.3 i will be regularly using the hell out of my phone with a spare stock battery.
batteries have yet to perform at the level of the rest of the hardware, it's a fact. bear with it like the rest of us. of course we bought the phone to use it.
if you need battery life above all, turn off sync, it will do wonders.
personal pref: for more available resources, uninstall that widget crap, homescreens full of that i dont know whats the point of using them, even multiple homescreens, i rather have really important stuff on the launcher and just one homescren, black bg, no widgets. these are cpu and memory hogs, as well as 3rd party task killers, system monitors... keep it simple. less is more.
I assume no more than a day on my gn, but, as stupid as it sounds if you turn off the 3g and only enable 2g you improve your juice a lot. Most of the time we only need 2g.
Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the Samsung Galaxy S7's battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
22h straight? How is this even possible? was the phone plugged in?
This phone idle drains almost as much battery when in use, if you are a heavy use, this is not a bad phone for you.
Coming from the Droid maxx I find the battery to be underwhelming. The only saving grace is the quick charge. Love the device hardware but battery sucks.

It gets hotter than Galaxy S5. Gets very hot when doing continous web browsing. Gets overheat warning when playing VR for 30 mins.

Mine doesn't get hot at all but I am not gaming. About the hottest it gets when updating Android. And I live in a very hot and humid climate so I am very satisfied.

Can you download CPU-Z and tell us the battery temperature when you are on Chrome for more than 10 minutes and when you are charging the phone ? Mine gets warm after using it a bit and hot when charging.
I don't browse much on the phone. It's just annoying. Also, I have been using USB charging from a desktop which is horribly slow but also doesn't heat up the battery which is good. Like I said the only time I notice it getting hot is on a long Android update. When I update all apps and have like 20 or 30 apps to be updated it gets warm but not hot. And the ambient temp here is around 90-95F right now in my living room. Right now on phone info it shows 33C CPU and 33.3C battery. I don't use cpuz because of the ads. I thought cpux had temps but i can't find them now.
Oh it does get hot with the wall charger! I have been using usb charging and it takes over three hours to go from 40% or so to full but the phone stays cool. The wall charger is much faster but it really heats up the phone. I guess what you are seeing is normal. Try usb charging if you don't need to get the battery full in a hurry.
Using this phone while playing Pokemon Go gets me about 4-1/2 hours until i need to recharge. I usually use my Samsung Charging pad to recharge my phone. just sit it down and leave it.
low endurance, i using phone every day, instagram facebook and other soc. media and i have to charge phone twice a day :/
i heavily modified my s7 software (Google Play Services replaced with microG, Xposed installed, Magisk installed, Amplify, Greenify, Better Battery Saver, Disable-Service, PowerNap, AFWall+, AdAway, AppOps, etc), and i get very very good battery, 6 hours SOT minimum with heavy LTE usage on whatsapp, facebook, instagram, etc. But yeah, in stock bloated rom, battery sucks.

Does your s7 have the exynos processor or snapdragon? if it's snapdragon, can you tell me what other apps you used to get such awesome battery life, or what guides you used that led you to the use of such apps? I can barely crack 4 hours SOT with mainly Firefox, Youtube use, and some facebook/whatsapp. On top of that, when I rooted my s7 and tried using greenify+amplify+forcedoze my battery life was VERY BAD compared to stock and full bloat.
I purchased this phone on 12/21 from Best Buy. I am coming from an unlocked Moto Z Play with which I was averaging 10 hours of screen time. Greatness and benchmark every OEM should consider. The apps on the S7 are the same as I had on the Moto. Today is my first day of a full charge and I have actually used it less than I typically would the Moto Z Play. I would try to kill the battery on the Moto purposely. That thing just kept going. Underwhelming battery life is about right for the S7 but I knew coming in that there would be absolutely no comparison.
Why did I switch? This phone game is one of give and take. I would take the Moto Z Play with that Snapdragon 625, insane battery life, 10x better finger scanner and the software experience over the S7 any day. There was one thing that I could not deal with on the Moto and this is where the S7 shines. The camera on the Moto is horrendous.
I have a nice shooter but I don't lug it everywhere I go. More times than not I want to take a picture with my phone where you just wouldn't carry a camera.
So, as of this post I am on target for about 4 hours of SOT on the S7 which falls short of what I am used to (Moto Z Play, 10 hours and about 8 on the iPhone 6 Plus that I just sold).
Give and take. Return this S7 and go back to the Moto Z Play but deal with a camera that sucks but IMHO excels over the S7 in every other aspect?

It would be useful to state whether you own the Exynos or the Snapdragon* version I have the Exynos, it doesn't get hot, not even when charging. 6 hours game time.

It's Exynos! i think 4hs SOT with Qualcomm it's ok since it is less efficient (At least on our phone). I can't tell about battery drain on root because the root method of your version is different, so maybe it's a kernel issue (no deep sleeping or something like that or a bad CPU governor keeping the cores at high frecuency).
Just installed BTU firmware on my 930FD. Doing reasonably well. Display resolution set to 1080p, getting about 30m more SOT than MM.
So all this talk about battery... Some early reviews said 5 to 6 hours battery life. While that is good, it isn't outstanding or anything. Sony been doing that for years and the S7 with the same processor, same battery and crazy amounts of bloat gets the same amount. Anyone have anything to share?
Will check battery life as soon as I got my device. Let's wait and see how it'll do the job.

Honestly, I am not worried about battery life that much as long as the phone has fast charging feature. I have fast charging charger in office and home and heck, I can even get another for car if I want to. As long as battery life is okay, I am fine with it. Now, if I was to buy a phone without fast charging feature like iphone, that will be a completely different story.

thats not good at all considering the Note 5 have a higher brightness threshold...matter of fact, HTC 10 got the lowest brightness nit I recently remember. seems like thats how HTC trying to save battery.
I've only got past 3 hours SOT on my MXP a few times, it averages at around 2.5 so this is great news for me hah.
With my usage I'm having 4h of sot

5-6 hours of SOT time isn't good at all?
The only phone I've had that was able to pull off a consistent 5-6 hrs of SOT time while lasting 24 hrs was the Note 2. I'll happily take 5-6 hrs of SOT and a full day of usage all day everyday.
Better not be 5-6 hours average... S7e for me if that happens.
Crappy untweaked M8 with everything running gives me that for years.

Please state whether you have the exynos or snapdragon.

I have to say, the battery has been pretty solid on my first full day of use (I only had a half day's use yesterday). 10 hours of talk time coupled with 4 hours of screen time, and getting 15 hours of battery is pretty good. I can't complain at all.
Note:
-Snapdragon
-WQHD selected
-Adaptive Power saving on
-I have wifi set to turn on and off automatically
-Bluetooth on (and in use the majority of the day)
-Link with Windows on
-Live wallpaper
-AOD on
-2 email accounts on push
-Screen brightness on auto
Let's have some more please
Just finished the learning stage so will be reporting my experience within a day or so.
Ok after the weekend it settled. I had bad battery life initially because I suspect syncing almost 8 thousand photos to the cloud took a hit. Fully charged and wifi on, for 3.5hrs, I lost 4%. That is amazing from my Note 9 losing 30% while sleeping. I mean no apps were used, idk how that happened lol.

Same here, it finally settled for me too. Yesterday I was on it all day. Taking pictures, Facebooking, watching YouTube, mostly surfing the Internet. It hit 0% and shut down with 9 hours and 50 minutes of screen on time. Now I was on WiFi 99.9% of that time, but still. I'm happy with that performance.

Great info, it's good to know those settings. That is very good battery life. WiFi or 4/5g?

Same here, it finally settled for me too. Yesterday I was on it all day. Taking pictures, Facebooking, watching YouTube, mostly surfing the Internet. It hit 0% and shut down with 9 hours and 50 minutes of screen on time. Now I was on WiFi 99.9% of that time, but still. I'm happy with that performance.

Forgot to mention, I have the N975U1
Today has been mostly wifi. I don't live in a 5G area but travel for a living, so I got the 5G version. Battery life is a little less without wifi,but not massively worse.

Reporting my results. Primarily on wifi.
Earlier this evening I threw it on the charger while I watched a movie. But before I did, I checked screen time. 4 hrs 14 mins with 65% battery left. That was mostly internet browsing, some YouTube, and some Facebook. All on WiFi. It seems the battery just gets better and better.
And by the way, off topic, I'm not sure what you all think of the haptic feedback of the N10+, but mine is just very nice and crisp. I turned up intensity just a notch in settings, but it just makes typing on this thing so nice.

I agree... Note 10+..is like... So fun to use... Well worth the update from note 9!
I lose about 2% overnight if I take it off the charger at 100% before bed. Big improvement over the 8-10% lost on my Note9. I'll post screen shots later as I get the battery down to a much lower percentage. I've had it since the 21st.... I'm highly impressed with the battery life. I'm on 85% and feel no need to charge before I go or today.

I see everyone is getting great results on WiFi. What about 4g/5g experiences?

A normal day usage..100% charged before leaving for work. Youtube, twitter, Amazon music used while travelling. I would say out of SOT of 4hrs, around 2.5 hrs would be on LTE. as an estimate SOT on only LTE should be in between 5-6hr range depending on your usage. On WiFi it will be 8-9hrs. I don't play games so for gamers SOT will be less ofcourse.
Think it's safe to say I might have a defective battery with my phone. It's an at&t branded phone. After I recharged it last night I took it off the charger and just let it sit by my bed I woke up this morning and I lost almost 11% in just standby...
My battery life is not great. Became worse after rooting. Better than my 4XL, but not getting "all day plus" battery life.
What are others experiencing?

I'm absolutely blown away. Every morning I have a routine where I go outside and have my coffee and chain smoke a few darts, read the news, look at memes and such and typically I'm using it about an hour and on my S21+ or Z Fold 3 I'd always be down to 93 or 94%. Today was no different and I was still at 100 after doing so. I then went to work and used Android auto so it stayed full until about 830 am when I took it off the charger. It's 745 pm and I'm at 80% with just a bit over 4 hrs sot. Didn't tweak any settings whatsoever to try and save battery.

Often but not always poor battery is dependant on what apps you have that are running in the BG or sending push notifications, etc. Some games like to do that and just destroy battery life. Facebook likes to kill battery that's for sure. That's really the only social media site I use regularly. I likely won't have many games on this. I'll jus my fold for games

Do you have AOD on? Lift to wake? Curious what settings you have

Yep everything on. The only setting I turned off was having wifi scanning. I like to enjoy and utilize all the features for the most part

Twitter is my only social media and no games. Time for BBS.
7h40 of SOT in 14 hours. Mostly wifi. No games, but messaging web and vidéo.
I was hoping better...
Also, with official 30w charger it did not reach 50% but 43 from 5% left.

Subjectively, battery life seems to be pretty cool. Nothing seems to drain particularly quickly and I've only had to charge a couple of times since Tuesday. Features such as lift to wake are all on. The only one that isn't is always on display as I never find that very useful when lift to wake is active.
Battery is absolutely fine for me. I've always charged my phone's at night anyway so as long as it lasts all day with my usage its good. It would last about a day and half if i wasn't charging each night. Screen on time has been between 5-7 hours with battery left of at least 40% each evening. I've turned off AOD this morning to see if that makes much difference in the next couple days as well.
Finally a positive thread hopefully with real experiences and no trolls.

Wow how can it differ so much from other people's experiences.. Something is definitely wrong or off. Maybe 5g?
I don't own this device but would be interesting to test out battery life after trimming most of the Google spyware/scam processes, GAPPs completely replaced and extreme overall de-bloating/trimmed setup for max batt. I'm guessing the results may be quite impressive...

Definitely. I feel Google now, aod, constant listening for background music and being alert for "Hey Google" increases consumption big time
Mine is getting better and better every day. Like everyone should know, it takes a few cycles. I already accepted the fact that it will not be as good as my P5.
