Battery Impression thread.

Hi fellas..
I thought we needed one of these threads to get a clear image of how the phone performs IRL.
We all heard rather varying reports from the reviews, some good,other disastrous...
Here are the points to be considered while posting.
1. Please post your impressions of the battery here.
2. Please be specific about how you've used it during the day.
3. Screenshots of the battery settings are most welcome.
4. Show image of screen-on time as well as the list of apps
5. Brightness, is it auto? custom? If custom, %?
5. 3g / WiFi on? If yes for how long?
7. Haptic feedback?
8. Please share the details like which ROM,Kernel, MODs. :good:
​
Thank you!

I would also love to see how the battery performs. This is one of the main attractions for me. I understand that the screen is absolutely massive, but If I can get a full day of use out of it without needing a 4:00pm re-charge (my iPhone 4s) than I would be eternally grateful. I can't stand having a dead phone merely 8 hours after I charged it. Some days it`s dead by 2-3

I can't recall any reviews saying anything negative about the N1's battery?
Regardless, great idea for a thread -
I have been very curious how much the 'gestures while screen is off' affects battery life, in particular.
- Frank

The battery on this thing is a beast. It isn't perfect, and I'm sure it could be improved somewhat, but it dominates everything else at the moment.

I think this is the best thing I've heard all month. Finally a great battery in a great phone! I would sacrifice a bit of CPU speed for battery life any day.

Does seem very decent!
Can't post any specifics right now, but the battery does seem very, very good!
I've had the OPPO Finder (x907) which was a cool device but even with even very minimal use could barely make it through the day.
I'm using the OPPO Find 5 (x909) which has decent battery life for a light-medium user, but would displease most users and all power-users.
With the OPPO N1, I'm still evaluating it's battery life but so far it's ridiculously better than the OPPO Find 5. Perhaps with the CM11 rom this will improve even more. Another cool thing, because the screen is so big...you can turn the brightness way down and the screen is still extremely readable.

Great to hear that there is a large improvement over the find 5. "Return to innovation", as they say . And I never would have thought that the screen would be easier to read when dimmed due to the large display. It makes sense due to the fact that the letters are displayed large enough to still make out clearly while the screen is dimmed. Neat!
Regarding the brightness, could you perhaps take a day to operate and monitor the N1 while on low brightness? I'm curious to see how much better the battery performs while in a dimmed state. To see if it makes a noticeable difference.

N1 Owner
i used OPPO Find 5 as a daily driver it was doing ok, but once i got N1 it amazed me with it's battery life, sometimes i can use it for two days
or one day for full heavy use, which means around 4-6Hrs screen on, with Wifi and playing games (candy crush sometimes for 2-3 Hours) and it still got some battery life.
I really recommend it.

Anyone else using the snapdragon battery guru app? I have to wait another 3 days for the battery savings to start. I was using it for half a day yesterday but I was forced to reinstall when I tried to install some see-through CM theme that messed up the themer. So beware of that.
I can actually play games for hours at a time on this phone. Whereas on my other phones the heat and battery drainage prevented me from doing so.

Good Battery Life
Battery life is pretty good for heavy users too. I won't say its the best, I think Note 2 was better on TouchWiz, but its not bad by any yardstick. If you are worried about battery life, keep that aside in case of N1 while using ColorOS. I can't speak for CM or Omni atm.

Battery life is pretty good.. Depending on the OS I use. WIth CM10.2 which it came with I am usually able to get about a full days worth of battery life with around 40-50% left. Obviously depends what I do with it during the day. Most of the time I surf 9gag, read emails, chat. The usual. I occasionally use Plex to stream media from home which drains the battery more.
I noticed when I used ColorOS though, the battery life was severely diminished. I use the program Battery Widget Reborn which gives me a rough idea of how much battery life is remaining. on CM10.2 it would report a full charge can usually last at least 1 and a half days to 2. But in ColorOS, the program reports that on a full charge I can only use the battery for 23 hours. In reality, I normally find myself at around 20-30% when I go to bed. (the phone is generally unplugged at around 8am when I head for work and replugged to the charger at around midnight.)
Both were pretty much configured the same with 3-4 widgets on the home screen with nova launcher and Zedge changes my wallpaper every hour. I read emails often and do chatting occasionally. and surf 9gag often.
I would be disappointed if the N1's massive 3610 mAh battery couldn't compete against the other flagship phones especially when the other phones all use the more battery consuming LTE radio vs Oppo N1's HSPA+ only radio chip.

I have just played with my brand new toy, so it is not a normal use for me...

Although many reviews point to battery darin in CyanogenMod version, i find it very practical than ColorOs. Battery life is fantastic in the two versions, but i love the feel of stock android rather than ColorOs.

my personal review about its battery is actually
depend upon its battery capacity....
for example. We've found here,
the non-famous brand with a power of 1500mAh,
it seems a little,
but if we compared towards its performance with its high usage,
it is still fine.

How I've had really great battery life and decent performance on the One m9

So I think I've found the best way to manage the heating/battery issues of the Snapdragon 810. I'm not sure if its my entire setup that's correcting all my issues or if its just the primary app.
My setup is Leedroid ROM with power saver on but only for display dimming and CPU managing. The important stuff: I am running the CPU Tuner app with a custom made profile running the On
demand governor at a 50/50 powersave bias (slider in app), and running only 4 cores out of 8. I believe this completely removes the high-power/performance cores from running. However, I do barely any gaming and performance for all other apps is very snappy and more than acceptable.
Just figured I'd share my thoughts and setup. My hands have yet to get uncomfortably warm like they usually do when doing multiple things in apps. Battery life is also MUCH better. If anything, you may use this setup temporarily until we get more kernels and developers working on fixing the issues with the snapdragon 810.

I don't have any issues with the snapdragon 810. I am still all stock unrooted and average just over 5 hours SOT. I don't use powersaver at all, not even when the battery falls below 15%. If battery life is that bad for you that you have to go to those extremes, then you probably have issues beyond the CPU.

I don't know how that's possible running stock, unless I have a bad unit or something. Then again I've tested some coworkers M9s, and theirs have issues the same as mine even though they're stock. I don't even have many apps installed, but my battery plummets just browsing the web or reddit, until I cripple the 810. Do you have any apps at all that help to preserve battery life? Or run exceptionally low screen brightness?

No, I do not use any apps to improve battery. I am on AT&T and at home I use a microcell and WiFi, so I do not get much battery drain from lack of having a good signal. I do not use exceptionally low screen brightness, but since high brightness does hurt my eyes, I do keep it around 33% and only raise it higher as needed. Overall, in comparison to other devices I have used and have or have had in the household, while not the best, I do find the M9 to have good battery life. And another good thing is, there is this update coming that improves battery life. Here is a current screenshot. Not half way through the battery and I already have 9 1/2 hours of life and just over 2 1/2 hours of SOT.

There's nothing wrong with your phone, the M9 hasn't got great battery life period, you can squeeze a lot out of it if you go to extreme lengths or if you don't hardly use your device, for example my last two phones which i just got rid of (Note 4 and an iPhone 6)
The Note 4 would last over 1 day comfortably as it was my main phone, the iPhone 6 however was simply a work phone, this bad boy lasted 4 days and 22 hours on a single charge, running IOS 8.1.3. I have a screen shot of it at home on my PC i'll upload later, the point i'm trying to make is, this is completely down to your Apps, your habits, your set up, rom you're using, mods installed etc.
All these combined make up the footprint of how long your battery lasts, no two people are the same, just as no two CPU's are the same, or for that matter the battery in your device, some may have a really good one, some might not, even your signal can have an adverse effect on the battery, especially if it's low and trying to get the signal out.
My advice for better battery life is to set up your phone the way you want it, start by cutting out the dead weight, remove and apps that start up at silly times (use autostarts for this) , check for wakelocks, reduce wireless activity, modify the CPU settings (like you have already) and then just use it as you would, anything else you can cut out,any other accounts that you really don't need, lose them, avoid task managers like the plague and remove apps like better battery stats once you've used them, use manual brightness, turn off ambient display, turn off hand gestures like double tap to wake
Beyond this there isn't much more you can do.

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 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.

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.

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

Wait till you put a sim in it. I get approx 4.5 hours SOT on average. I'll put up a screen shot soon as I'm back in the UK. Currently on WiFi only, to avoid roaming charges.

The battery is not that good for my experience... About 30 min using Spotify uses about 7% of battery, when regularly it doesn't took that much on my other phone that I own (Samsung J7) I know the battery is bigger for comparison, but also I've tested on a Nexus 5, and the battery have a better management on other devices than this one, when you start to use the phone on regular apps (FB, TW, IG, WA, TG, SC, etc.) you will notice a clear drain on your battery, everything is going down, in about 15 - 20 min of continuous usage it will drain about 10% - 15% of your battery, for my previous experiences on other devices this is not even close, especially when is a brand new phone (2 days old).
IOT, the standby battery usage is pretty awesome.
P.S. I will post some screenshots later.

my experience is, like every other phone, daily charging is necessary. however I dont notice any more drain than any other phone ive had in the past.
I get a full solid day on my battery, and i use it heavily every day.
I havent installed alot of apps(which some tend to kill your battery quicker).
id give it a high rating.
peace

5in Pixel, T-mobile in S Florida, good reception. Not a heavy app or social media user but have never had to worry about getting through the day. I usually have about 40% when I get home from work (heavy call and text use) and I see the warning to charge right before I plug it in for the night. Default brightness, wifi, bt, gps always on. Android auto destroys the battery because it loves to keep the screen on.

If pixel cost drops in india
I will buy it

Battery is mediocre at best. They should of went with a 3000mah.

Unfortunately I agree its mediocre at best. I miss my Sony Z3C which would last 2 days with the same usage as my Pixel. Pixel at 34% coming off charger 8 hr 30 minutes ago. Although 3 hr 30 minute screen on time,46 minutes on phone, Google app used for 2 h 17min and 6% yikes.

compared to the galaxy s6 i had before it is amazing. and charges fast fast fast

Agreed, exact same situation and experience (concurrent Z3C user), except I'm probably getting even less screen time with the Pixel than you. These oversized "flagship" phones seriously need a boost in the battery department.

Battery is not very good i am a power user at 100 percent i start my day at 6 am at the battery dies by 3 pm. i am rocking Android o beta now

Question Battery life thread

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?
For some magic by the great @Freak07 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ra-1-0-5-for-pixel-6-pro-aka-raviole.4358435/

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

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.

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.

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.
