Screen on time - Google Pixel Real Life Review

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 Google Pixel before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

I will post later today after I fully charge. But I lost about 10% during initial setup and downloading apps. Less than 10 minutes SOT, hardly a fair reflection of endurance yet though.
So far:

Looks like about 5hrs is what it will trend down to. Which... Is OK.

Is this XL or the smaller version?

First full day for me. It's about what I would expect to be honest. Everything is on except for drive backup and wifi, Bluetooth, nearby scanning.

The Pixel (non XL) hasn't been looking great for me. Here's my second and third days with the phone (i.e. the days after the one I spent installing everything and playing a lot with the
camera).
First Full Day
Second Full Day

Jasestu,
I think your 2nd day results are pretty good. 3.5 hours of SOT and 22% battery left means you should be able to get at least 4.5 hours or more for a 2770 mah battery. That's in par with my S7.

This is from yesterday, my first full day with the phone after getting it Thursday. About a half hour of a graphic heavy game, over an hour of YouTube, some Netflix casting. Navigation was on for maybe 20 minutes, Bluetooth was on all day, streaming gpm and podcasts. Screen brightness was 50% most of the day. Power saving mode was on from 15% until I plugged in at 4% and took these screenshots.

OK, so it's probably a case of needed to recalibrate myself after the Z3 Compact - I get twitchy if the phone ever got as low as 35% by the end of a day....

And here's today's stats.

Not gonna get too ahead of myself but it does appear that battery life is improving as the days go by and the OS settles. I'm hoping to consistently get 4+ hours SOT. That would be an improvement over my 6P (3–4 hours SOT since Nougat) and I'd be content with that.

Today is my first full day with the phone (basically all setup completed yesterday eve), and I'm currently at 4+hr SOT with 31% battery left. I spent about an hour (edit:*talking*) on the phone, listened to a bit if music, wandered around this AM taking photos, and spent a ton of time if Facebook and Reddit. This is WAY better than my 5x, which was struggling to hit 2.5 hrs on a full days' use. Things to consider: it's Saturday and I'm not getting work emails all day, but also I typically expect worse battery life early on as OS is settling in. So far, this is more than u was expecting and is a great early indicator. Even if I only get 4-5hr SOT long term, is still be quite happy with that. Trending for 5-6 is just stellar!

https://goo.gl/photos/ZEifip3kRHXXuVDK7 wow this battery life is crushing what I got even on my note 7. 89% left just went over 1 hour SOT. Well on way to 5-6 hours or more easy. The sleep mode is insane overnight

What's your usage like? And have you been on LTE the entire time?

Not bad I'd say

First day usage. I'd say it's pretty decent

[Q] How many hours do you get before you charge your HOX?

I did not see a thread similar to this for HOX. People have been saying that HOX battery is not as good as SG3 but I just wanted to get an idea how much other users are getting.
MY HOX White is giving me an awsome backup for 48 hours average with 2 hours screen time and 45 minutes talk time. I think it is awesome. Post your hours here.
Not to bad almost 3 days before I had to put it on the charger 5 hours screen time. Running Charmeleon v5.0.0 with stock kernel.

Hey man;
Sure the battery life in SGS3 is better, it has lighter processor (which doesn't help in heavy gaming, very fast in normal use though), more energy efficient AMOLED screen (which has less quality, but better brightness), and also the simpler TouchWiz UI (which is a bit childish in my opinion, but does the job well)
I get about 8 hours with heavy gaming (near 1 hours continuously) and web surfing (actually downloading, almost 500MB in total) and something like 1 hour watching music videos...
I get 2 1/2 - 3 hours screen time max! In the battery drain test my battery reaches 84% by the end of the hour, which I thought was great, but then again that test requires you to put your phone in Airplane Mode. The screen is a battery-hog imo, but its beautiful even with the stuck pixel I have haha.
LEt us get some more people to answer this one before we reach any conclusion.
Results are inconsistent for sure. Few people like me are getting 2 days average and few 2 hours!
For me it depends on what is running.
Normally I get about 14 hours of moderate use with 2-3 hours screen time.
Today I'm at 10hrs with 1.25hours screen time and I'm down to 11%. But I believe it is due to having wifi and viber running.
Personally it's my wifi that is really killing the battery. But given how I use it, it is perfectly acceptable
Is it true that non-rooted HOXs have poorer battery stats as compared to those that are rooted? If so, why?
I'm not rooted and am on stock everything.
How exactly do I go about testing the battery on my HOX?
Any tips for better battery for non-rooted devices?
I get about normal usage ( 3G-1 hour, Tegra games- half our, Music- 2 hour, SMS and Calls) 10h, just SMS and Calls about 30h.
The number of hours i get varies from time to time . On normal usage including listening to music, messaging, playing games and talking on the phone i get approx 4-5 hours max.

How were you able to replace the battery icon with a number?
Its normally there in the tweaks of the rom ur using .
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
@Skywalker, I am all stock. How do I go about making the tweaks in the Rom?
Very frankly after receiving OTA 1.28 my battery lasts 2 days after every charge . some tips.
1. While you are listening to music keep the screen off as screen sucks up most of the charge.
2. I do not let my battery go below 15 %, I have read that letting them go below a particular level reduces the actual life.
3.Try these small steps, it resolved the issue of low battery life for me as I had read it somewhere:
> Turn Wifi and then 3G off
> Turn either Wifi or 3G on again
> Do not keep both "On" at the same time.
4. Kill the Maps process by going to the task manager ( If not using it all the time).

2 hours Screen on time, 1 hour voice calls
I think turning off the screen while on a call or when listening to music will also aid in less battery drain. No?

battery life

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.

Forget about the "rundown tests" as those dont show real use. Pocketnow said 4.5 hours of SOT in a day. Thats horrible for a battery of this size.

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.

I think the QHD Display is the Biggest Battery Drain. On my G3 I get also 4-5 SOT. Although I like the HTC 10 but I would like to get a better Battery life on a New phone as on my old one....

Well doh, there's your problem.
WiFi + LTE at the same time is quite taxing and not even talking about the SoC load of the phone acting as a router.

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.

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.

A lot of social networking during data usage. A bit of listening to music, photo shooting, web browsing and YouTube streaming during WiFi usage. Some casual games as well.
Power saver triggered on 15%
My rating: 4/5 - Need bigger battery module
Can you go into detail?

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

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

I've only had it for a week, and I could probably push for 6 hours of SoT. Right now I'm sitting at 37% battery, 3 hours 39 min SoT with fairly average use at work--mostly texting, browsing, etc.

impressive!
Incredibly bad battery life for me. I have almost 3 hours with 32% left. That is atrocious. I get 8 hours on my 7 plus
I'm very happy with the battery life of my OnePlus 3T! I get an average of 5h30 SoT with a night battery drain around 3-4%. Stock OxygenOS, stock kernel.
For my use: Social apps, web, little game, texting...
Need more time to master the battery, I have 13% of battery drain when screen off during almost 24 hours. I think I can reduce this!
Amazing screen on time.
Really impressive screen on time I think.

I was at home the whole time, browsing instagram all day, never leaving the phone alone for more than 15mins???.. I'm so impressed with the battery life.
Jio 4g whole day ON, no wifi, Auto brightness 30%, Stock 3.5.3 .
I'll not be surprised if custom kernels can push op3T to 9 to 10hours SOT
How you all getting SOT more than 6hrs....mine just 3 to 4 hrs.... I m moderate user
I've been getting around 6 hours of SoT consistently with my usage being watching YouTube videos, browsing, few minutes of gaming(not more than 20-30min), few photos here and there all this with dual Sims, 4G data, no Wi-Fi.
I am seriously impressed with the battery life, its waaaayyy better than what I got from my previous phone the Xperia Z2.
The charging is soooooo quick as well. I'd usually sit for 10-20min near a charging port giving me more than 50% of battery, that is AWESOME!:good:
This is one of the better ones, even after using the phone constantly as I've does with a new phone!
bought 3t yesterday, here is my first cycle
it can easily pushed till 7hr 30min
Don't know why have so poor battery life. Any idea? Newest build - 3.5.4. 161213. Whole time without wi-fi. Mostly 4G. This shouldn't be normal... Just installed GSam. Maybe it will help.

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?

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...
