The truth is you can get high ratings on this thread since 4.4k mAh battery gives great SOT like 8+ Hours over a day.

I just use miui battery saver stuffs like background data restriction etc, notifications/gps/sync off, obviously I should have mentioned im using Epic MM build. Sometimes even getting 9H sot mostly on wifi usage.
Besides I get(in 2-3 cycles) nearly 5H sot on RR with my same usage.
I get between 7 hours the bad days, to 11 hours when the phone is happy
On LineageOS, Android 7.1
it seems the biggest factor is the cellular reception, i can easily reach 11h at home but if I'm moving during the day, it'll be more 8h
With me it was great on stock chinese ROM even three days of usage. After the first OTA update this went down about 30% Since Im on Lithium Nightly It was a full day+ but since about three weeks I cant get a full day of usage... Very frustrating... (I own the Mix nearly 10 months now).
I'm currently on RR with the RR kernal gapps and supersu and so far, every 10% battery gives me an hour on-screen time. Haven't fully drained the battery to test overall screen time, but it should roughly last around 10 hours OST. I'll be back with screenshots of usage.
Update: *Tested on LineageOS with same kernal* 9 hours and 30 minutes https://imgur.com/a/4p3Wm

hi guys, so no one can inform us about the battery life?
I'm quite happy with my screen on-time. I get between 6 and close to 8 hours of use during the day, sometimes a bit less, depending on my usage. All in all, I'm very happy [emoji4]

Battery life is decent. My last phone had a 4000mah battery and this battery lasts the same or maybe a little bit better! I get betwwen 5-9hrs SOT with my usage.
Great SOT on this device. I constantly get 6+ hours. I can get at least an hour and a half or even more SOT with current battery level.
I get 6 hours+ with my moderate heavy usage.

So it's been quite a few months since my last post, and just more than a year of owning the phone, and I'm currently getting between 3 and 4 hours of screen on time lately, and have had to charge my phone a lot more often.
How is everyone else's battery holding up?

i play pokemon go and i cant go out without my powerbank now, im lucky if i get 3,5 hours of on-screen time, but without playing pokemon go; i will replace the battery next week (about 30€ legit battery) but may be due to a kernel bug on latest builds (remote chance)

I've been playing Asphalt 8, and now Asphalt 9, but my battery only started going down after the last update or two. Maybe it could just be the kernel, like you said. [emoji848]

Finally, I will try to replace it this week by myself, 17€ legit battery on Amazon, and yes, I'll tell you how it goes with the new battery (but my drain issues started with the 2 latest builds) (latest build B370)
Go to custom ROM. I am using Elemental V3 and I get medium usage battery life(always on, GPS_on, data_on, WIFI_on) for 1.5-2 days. Around 8 on continuous usage(internate, fb, netflix, GPS_on, data_on, WIFI_on). I am very pleased till now. I was using the Official one and got around 4 hours of battery life on high usage.

I'm on stock ROM, latest b168 build and SOT is still perfect. I have over 4 hours now, and battery is still around 40%. Wi-Fi and mobile data are always on, automatic screen brightness is also set. I don't know why you get so bad SOT.
Sorry, my P10 lite fainted on 28/09, just few minutes after the battery change, It literally passed by RIP, i bought a Xiaomi MI A1 for 144,30€ on AliExpress Plaza with disccount coupon, i can easy obtain 7-8 hours of screen on time now playing Pokemon go sometimes, can raid 2 times with a 4% of power consumption
Hi Guys,
I have checked the real-life reviews about the SOT and I see lots of people posting a SOT of 8+ hours.
Personally I get about 6 hours consistently every time but never was able to get these miracle numbers. Are you people just lowering your brightness to the lowest point and having battery saver on all time to be able to show off? or is there some magic going on?
Anyways, if anyone has tips regarding maximizing the SOT without giving up to many features I'd be happy to know (e.g. WiFi scanning off or on, disabling location tracking etc.). I don't want to root my beautiful device .. yet .
Thanks! Never Settle!
5 to 6 hours is average with moderate usage. 4 to 5 hours is with heavy usage like GPS and YouTube. 7+ hours would be with minimal usage plus few tweaking like dark theme and wallpaper turn off location and data. It all comes down to how you use the phone. I have rooted my phone with magisk and using greenify and Google play services doze module it gives me excellent battery life. 2 days of usage with single charge get about 5+ hours of sot. Which is very surprising

I'm guessing they don't use battery draining apps like Snapchat and Facebook. I also turned off raise to wake and ambiant display and got way more sot. I went from 4 to over 5.
I used to get 8-9 hours on my OP5 and I'm averaging 7-7.5 on this 5T. Maybe its a ROM thing or maybe the taller screen is playing a role, either way I don't mind since 7 or so hours is still really good for my needs

Just like @big_b0sss said, it all depends on how you use your phone. When I wanted to check sot , I used it very frequently by browsing, games , YouTube etc and I got around 8 hrs sot with about 15% battery still left. But that's not how I really use my phone, with my normal use , I charge my phone when it's at about 30% and when I do it's every 2 days and sot at about 4-5 hrs which is absolutely fine for me.
I get 7-8 hrs with easy use(messaging, social media, browsing) on 80 percent wifi and 20 mobile data.
Stock kernel or custom?
Using widgets and a lot of other things with sensors will cause battery drain too, I only get about 4hrs but it does last all day
I get approx 7 hrs of sot with moderate usage. No root, deep clear in recents, force stop messenger and whatsapp, location off wifi scanning off, automatic brightness.... I play shadowgun online 1 hr, youtube and uc browser.....
I got 9 hours SOT. No limits ROM and franco kernel ?
Hi, i have been noticing that my battery its just getting me through the day with 4hs SOT in 14 or 15 hs of use. I have tried many roms and kernels and there is no difference. My phone its not too old (1 year and a half) so i wanted to ask you how was your battery doing. And if mines dying. (Sorry for poor english)
lineage os 15.1
I get from 4.5-6h of SOT depends on how heavy or how many pics I abuse the phone
stock pie, I barely get 2.5h of SOT and if I go heavy use on it, I barely crack 2h
18 months is more than average use, and that usage is normal, and mine is exactly like yours by the way, and the device is of same age too LoL. I am gonna keep using it like this and when SoT drops below 3 hour mark might consider replacing the battery. You can already consider changing the battery anyway.
PS: Tip, stop using those stupid Adaptive ****s Pie brought, both the battery and brightness thingy, those do nothing except drain more.

What about like stock pie with a custom kernel?
Stock Pie here, latest security, just rooted with TWRP.
Get about 2.5 with mixed media and gaming and little gaming I can get about 3.5 hours SOT. Just got the phone about two weeks ago, coming from a 6P. Accubattery shows 71 battery health.
It's not too bad but not that great either. Personally it gets me through work and back home and it charges very fast using the 6P charger even when gaming.
I wish the battery was better, other than that I LOVE my Pixel XL!
Stock Pie, not touched, not modified, not rooted. Perfectly happy with battery life so far, up to 8 h. SOT, up to 1 day of moderate usage.

8h SOT seems pretty crazy for a 2 year old device but I can see it. Mine usually gets upwards of 5-6 depending on what games I'm playing on it etc. Mind you I'm rooted with a custom kernel installed. Either way I am still very much impressed with the Pixels battery life.

Sorry to say, but are you sure you didn't charge your phone to 90 percent and unplug it a few times? That doesn't reset SOT.
Hard to believe that my phone is still bate minimun, stock Pie and can barely squeeze 3.5 hours SOT out of it at 72 percent battery health.
There are legit nothing keeping my phone awake either. I use gsam and BetterBatteryStats.
There is no way you're getting 8 hours SOT on a two year old devices, when even the Note 9 isn't getting anywhere near that.
As I have mentioned before, the one in my hands is brand new, born from Pie. So I am holding barely 2 months old device, far away from two years and it easily last from morning till next morning. 8 hours of SOT is possible depending on usage, double checked. Even GSM arena test says it's holding 11 hours of video playback. Moderate usage, dark themes in every possible app, some YouTube, Facebook, Google Play Music, browsing, on WiFi almost 24 /7, up to 30 min calling per day. But no gaming at all.
My first screen shot may be a bit confusing one as I unplugged my device from charger while taking it and posting. 5 h SOT, half juice left, but it will go a bit faster now, never exceed 8 hours here. If you are using if for processor intensive task I agree 4-5 hours will be most what you'll get.
Stats at this moment.
How do you guys get such crazy battery life?! I'm lucky to scrape in an hour of screen on time! And that's just using it to look at Facebook and Snapchat here and there.
AccuBattery Pro stats
Custom pie rom here. I usually average about 5 hrs sot. Sometimes if im just texting and light browsing I'll get to 3 hrs at 50% but no matter what else i do it magically ends at about 5 hrs even when Im on track for 6. Now if I start using snapchat, youtube, camera the battery drops like a rock and I'll show only 3.5 maybe 4 hours. this is with LTE, not much wifi, but that doesnt seem to alter the outcome much one way or another.
Oh and share, Im getting 1 less with pie compared to oreo. Someone in another thread tried to tell me it was just me and my phone but looks like thread everywhere show pie is a battery bogger.
What's a good app to measure battery health

hi I'm actually xda passive user from 2011, since then I always using sony devices (xperia arc, xperia SP, xperia Z2 xperia XA2 Ultra, XZ Premium) but this is my first time to have an account and be active user. My pixel XL using custom pie rom (liquid remix) and kingkernel by KingBri, Blu_Schedutil gov can least up to 4.5-5hours SOT in 30% LTE and 70% wifi moderate use (WA,IG,Youtube,Chrome) but it can drop to 3-4hours SoT when I'm gaming PUBGM for total 1hour. I think thats good remind I bought second hand Pixel XL in Indonesia just about less than 2 weeks ago. sorry no screenshot because I forgot to capture it when still in liwuid remix and now I'm in BootLeggerROM 3.5 Pie and wanna test the differences. Thank you :good::good:

Are you all sure that SOT isn't calculated also while displaying fingerprint area? I didn't test it yet, but it probably also counts sot, so the displayed parameter may show bs.
hmm I don't know, could be.
I used chrome a lot but not sure if it adds up to 7h. I mainly used the phone in bed with lights turned off so the brightness was at lowest setting the most of the time...
I might disable the fingerprint display if thats possible an post another screenshot.
I disabled some sensors with an xposed module and have the feeling that the battery lasts a bit longer since that.
Can give u a list of disabled sensors if you are interested.

did anyone noticed with android 10 more battery drain?? 5h sot seems a bit low..
Just got a F3 yesterday and I'm trying to evaluate this unite bc I turned it on was at %65 and reached %20 with only 1:15hrs of screen time and about 12hrs idle. Recharging now and I need a baseline. How much screen on time should I expect if there are no better issues?
Thanks in advance
In my case, while keeping the location services turned on 24/7 (since google decided for god knows what reason in android 10 to tie to it the function of BT LE) as well as bluetooth with notifications synced to a mi band on the latest stock rooted EEA ROM I get about 6 hours-ish of screen time browsing, messaging, a little video calling and some phone games, using 80% of the battery between 100/99% to ~20%.
I can usually squeeze in 45-60 more minutes of use down to 10% if I ever needed more, but it's not recommended due to it affecting the lifespan of the battery.
Note: if you play a lot of games then it won't last all that much. At best I got around 3 hours of blue archive and genshin.
I get 10 hours of SOT. Browsing social media with Bluetooth, Location, Adaptive brightness, and 120hz is always turned on. I'm using the latest hentaiOS build based on Android 12.
4-8 depending on usage and idle time (8h while watching movies) on stock rom

I remember getting 11 or close to 12 hrs SOT on stock rom and almost the same on ArrowOS A11 and I'm not getting the same SOTs on AOSP A12 roms now, i'm getting like 6-8hrs.

Yeah, I used to get 11+ hours of SOT on ArrowOS (Android 11). 10 or 11 hours of SOT is enough for me, I really don't want more than that.
I'm getting 8-9 SOT with normal usage(Youtube,FB,browse) and 4hrs when straight gaming. 120hz rr.
well, it depends: how much brightness, the refresh rate you're using, how many "app cache'd" and so on.
for me, using 60Hz, brightness always around 40%, no much apps, just IG, YT, Mario Kart, Spotify and Chrome using, always on Wifi and Location i can go from 100% to 25% battery with 9 to 11 hours SoT. (if i play much Mario Kart i get 9, if doenst easy 11).
i never let the phone die everyday, just once a week or a month, charging the phone when you have 20%+ battery is better for the calibration/battery health so, is just a tip.
Also, i am not rooted, just disable a lot of apps using Xiaomi ADB Tool.
