did s20 latest update make the battery drain faster? - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

I am using s20 ultra, after installed the latest update the battery is draining really fast. I am charing it twice or up for a day. especially when I play a game on my phone it consumed 6 - 7% battery for like 15 to 20 minutes.

Yah even my battery is not so great sot arround 4.5 hours with 120 htz actually, but absolutely love the phone otherwise....

[Q] N5100 Avg Battery Drain (idling / Standby)

Hi,
I have had this tablet (N5100) for a couple of weeks now and am wondering what the average battery drain for others/you is like?
Mine is draining around 1%/H when idle / sleep (screen off, wifi-on scheduled with juice defender, Mobile Data off, Cell Radio on) with little to no activity.
so after my 4-5 hour sleep it's down by 5-6 %. is it normal, too high/ too low?
my other device samsung galaxy player YP-G70 has much better results, but then that is a totally different hardware altogether!.
Thanks.
1%/h would translate into avg current of 46mA, which is not bad, any higher value would be a reason to investigate. On my device, after some tweaking the standby current as estimated by the Battery Monitor Widget is between 10-40 mA.
Anyway, if you want to find the apps eating your battery during standby, check the better battery stats thread.

Hi,
I have done a few tests of my own.
Overnight my battery drain is 1%(about 9/11 hrs )
I further ran a test in standby for over 24 hrs and
battery drain was only 6%.(from 100% down to 94% )
Good luck
Just want to add ,i get like 2mA in standby,
Also the 6 % drain (in 25 hrs plus some min.)
Include my twitter updates ,weather,market apps update, etc once or so .data off there after.

wow, that's a little depressing! haha
I guess i'll have to go on some app shooting spree and see what i end up with.
As of now i have put google currents to sync only while charging and disabled google now and some location stuff in google maps and that seems to have improved things some bit already.
bad or good battery
I play samsung note 8 without screen off , and screen on just 4 hour
i think note 8 only survive 1%/5 minute
If play 1% just only 2 minute

How's your battery after 6.0?

So I also run an Moto X pure and love the thing. After Marshmallow dropped for my Sammy s6, I decided to switch back and try it out. I wanted to know how yall's experience has been and if your battery has been noticeably better. I switched to the Moto X Pure for the better battery life as my s6 seemed to only last me half a day of use at work. So how's it going?
I think the battery life is just as awful as it was on Lollipop. Doesn't seem to be any improvement there. That's just my opinion.
Standby battery has definately improved, screen on time has not changed that much
I had better battery life on 5.1.1 Screen on time is worse on 6.0.1
GF is running MM and complaining about battery life compared to LP. I haven't tested it or logged anything, just anecdotal from a heavy screentime and data user.
Hello guys
On my S6 Device idle takes 18% and cell standby takes 16% i think this is too much, can someone help me?
It for sure is a battery drainer... I just have the MM 6.0 on the phone and no apps whatsoever and with it just sitting there on the table with the phone doing nothing in 20 minutes it was down to 79% from being fully charged. I could go all day at work with phone in my pocket and after a 12 hour shift I would be at 93% battery on 5.1.1. I just can't leave my phone plugged in 24/7 because I might have to use it. I am going to install facebook and see what 20 minutes will do to my battery life. Sure enough it went down after install my battery was at 65% from 79% and now its at 45% with less than a half hour of facebook. so I figure its about a percent per minute ratio so my life expectancy is about 100 minutes with 6.0 on a fully charged battery.
Nice improvement for me. I never had much more that 1- 1.5 hrs SOT before getting about 15% battery. Now I see the same SOT time but have 50% battery left.
That's enough to get me through the day now.
I was jonesing to get the S7 as soon as my upgrade is do. Now I'm not so sure.
I'm feeling the same. I'd be loosing the IR blaster if I upgrade to the S7 and it's come in handy too many times to live without. My battery life has made living with the phone a more pleasant experience.

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 Samsung Galaxy Note 7 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Got 6 hours sot on my first usage starting at 90%, wifi only - internet/youtube/light gaming
Not impressive but decent, not as terrible as I thought sd820 was going to be aside from it being hot
Could be better but with all of the battery saving features you get, I don't have any issues with how long the battery lasts with the screen on.
You can also change the resolution to FHD. It will increase the SOT and FPS while playing videogames Great new feature :good:

What SOT is impressive for you and what phone is that ?

6 hours of heavy usage with LTE would be very impressive, S7E exynos can pull off 6-7 hours in that regard.
6 hours with wifi and light usage is pretty typical even for mid range phones, my 7 years old iphone can pull off similar results in airplane mode.

No ****, eh? I am beyond happy with the SOT with this phone... hell, the battery period. My POS LG G3 couldn't go more than 3.5 hours SOT with light to moderate usage.

U are saying iphone 3gs was capable of 6 hours of usage
Lol standby or airplane mide note 7 would last a week. Easy.

Mine clocked 8 hrs with wifi, you tube, moderate gaming and online music.
I've managed about 17hrs SOT on my Note 5 once*
*Attatched to a battery pack lol
Snapdragon model note 7. Had 6 hours 30 minutes of screen on time, 3 more hours of standby, WiFi, Bluetooth, WiFi calling, and AOD all active, location set to battery saving, none of the power saving features active, spent lots of time in Firefox and Facebook messenger, watched a full movie from SD card at 100% brightness, sketched in autodesk sketchbook with the s pen for maybe an hour, and I still have 35% remaining. Been at full bars of reception all day, though, so no drain from low signal. Either way, I'm impressed. Especially coming from my HTC one m9, haha. And the phone stayed pretty cool all day, especially compared to the m9.
Hi, I'm looking at around 5 hours of SOT.
I believe I am experiencing severe battery drain on my phone. My phone doesn't last a complete day without needing a recharge.
Here are some quick stats.
- My phone has been on for 6h20m. Screen on for 2h17mn. Battery left is 58%. Although, I've turned on MAX power saving mode for about 1 hour or two today to ensure that my phone can last throughout the day.
- I usually have screen brightness at 50% or lower.
- According to the device maintenance app, and depending on past usage I have enough juice for another 6h50mn. That would lead to screen time of about 4 to 5 hours.
- I'm using dark themes whenever possible to reduce screen battery consumption.
- I've played a game for about 10 to 20 minutes today
- I've noticed that when my screen is on, every couple of minutes (maybe 5 minutes at the most) my battery percentage will drop by 1%.
- I mainly use my phone for gReader (RSS Reader with dark theme modee), WhatsApp (with black wallpaper) and the Economist.
- The top 3 items that have consumed my battery so far are: Screen (33%), Android OS (21%), Andoroid System (16%)
- I'm using two SIMs on my phone
- Believed to be Exynos. Bought it from the Middle East
- Always on Dispaly has 4 clocks on at all times. Probably using more battery.
Am I a heavy user hence why my battery is running out quickly. Or are there certainly issues with the battery?
Thanks for your feedback
I feel as if I'm getting horrible battery life as well. Been hard to tell being that I have horrible signal at work, if it doesn't improve with real world usage this weekend I'm going to phone att for a replacement.
SOT is a useless measure on it's own, doesn't tell anything about the battery life. I doubt you can get 6h SOT and that your phone can last until the end of the day. Yesterday I got about 4h SOT and around 14h uptime before I plugged it in again. Can't say that I am unhappy with that.
5 hours of playing Deemo and have 14% remaining, probably going to refund it for a S7E with exynos instead or keep it and sell it before S8 launches
Wifi only, brightness was around 30% auto. Not a gpu intensive game at all so not as impressive as it sounds. I believe the S7E exynos did 5 hours of pokemon go with max brightness.
I'm getting great battery. Better than my Nexus 6P, which I didn't expect. Seemed to run hot day 2, not day 3. Not...sure why. Love the power options, normally I hate to touch power saving.

Quoting myself here. Day 4 with the phone, 4:10 SOT with 18 h of on-battery time. Battery went down to 4%. Just a normal use, few videos, lots of music played (Deezer and Pandora), about 30m of Pokemon Go, news, etc. Once again, not unhappy with the results. I would prefer if I have another 5-10% left to account for the unexpected. Otherwise, all good.

Battery usage

My battery stats have improved greatly by turning off location completely.
Took it off charge at 6am and with heavy usage
YouTube internet calls etc
still have 65% 16.5 hrs later.:good:
Just starting to play with battery use on my new G5. 100% charged 10 hours ago just before bed.
On a day to day basis i am a pretty light user. Calls and texts mainly.
Left phone unpluggged so it slept and 7 1/2 hours layer its at 93%.
20 mins music and email checking 19 hours in its at 88%.
Have Greenified much in the way of apps which i think improved things. Compared to the Sony i had the G5 seems to have ok battery life.
Its certainly in the useful, full day and better range.

Is yours rooted? I tend to get 5+ hours screen on time sometimes 7 which is amazing for a phone this cheap.
Same here, I have about 4-5 hours of screen on time with greenify, non-rooted. I'm a regular user, messenger, emailing, browsing, spotify etc. I'm also using Adguard which has its impact on the battery but a small price compared to having ads all over the place

Nope, no root as yet. And actually i may not depending on what ROMS become available in the future. Pretty happy with the way this is setting up and Android 7.0 stock. I think i may well leave it unrooted until after Android O hits and see where i go from there.
i'm rooted and the battery is very good, i got 7,5 hours SOT, usually i have 5-6 H of calls and 3H of SOT, 2 sims active, wifi and 4g always on, and the battery is 20-25% when i put on charging from evening to the morning. Very happy with this battery

Very good battery for price of the handset
I don´t know it´s a isolated case, but since i bought the phone, the battery is pretty bad, yesterday i tried to charge with another power adapter and my battery it´s lasting longer, anyone have this same problem?
Sometimes this happens to me.
When i keep my phone overnight(Battery Saver ON) even wid a charge of 60-70%, next day mrng, the battery is completely drained and phone is OFF. This doesnt happen daily, happens only sometimes. Any guesses why dis happens?

Redmi Note 8 Pro Terrible Battery Draining

I just bought it 7 days later and I really hate the battery draining too fast. My old phone was Redmi note 4x and I can say it's more battery efficient. I only average 2 1/2 hours on 50% . Casual use no heavy gaming. Android System has the highest usage based on my observation. My rom is MIUI 10 10.4.1.0 PGGMIXM.
Anyone having the same issue???
I had the same issue on my unit. 15%+ drain overnight with no use and connected to wifi. Returned it because of touch sensitivity issue in the end, and I'm waiting to see if the issues get sorted out...
I had the same issue too, the Android system with 40% of battery consumption and at night my smartphone is consuming 10%.
interesting,mine can use 1.5 days with some time of games. Screen brightness kept roughly 60%
No problem here ,miui 11

I get way more SOT than you but it does drain fast comparing to some of the previous phones i've had. I can do a day without charging if i didn't game, but even a hour of COD drains almost 30% of the battery. And that's specially disappointing because this thing has a massive battery...

I have played cod for more than an hour and it never drained 30%. Maybe you have some issues. I have done extensive gaming yesterday and I got 9 hours and 30 mins SOT. I'm more than happy with this because I played cod,pubg and clash of clan.
What firmware do you guys have?
