How's the battery backup of your Honor 8 Pro C675 with all the latest updates? - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey,
I am owning an Honor 8 Pro C675 with current version DUK-L09 8.0.0.322 (C675 - India) which is the latest available version. The device is new and less than a month old.
But my battery backup is absolutely wrecked.
With full charge I am getting a maximum 5 hours of SoT with medium to low brightness and just regular chatting and web surfing. There's no anomaly in terms of apps or anything, everything looks fine but battery drains fast.
My battery usage chart looks like a very steep slope. :crying:
Anyone else facing this issue or is it just me?
If yes, any solution or tweaks that did it for you? Like resetting or something.

Well 5 hr sot for normal browsing and chatting is abysmally low!! I get around 7 hr sot with ease...and around 5 hr sot if i game... I guess you should reset once and see... although i know resetting can be irritating!!

Thanks for your answer.
Is your unit C675 (India)? The Indian EMUI 8 rom is poorly optimised in terms of battery management, as I am hearing from multiple users.

3 accounts with email syncing, youtube, music streaming... Lets just say that with the galaxy s7 (Flat) I would get MAYBE 7 hours and 2 hours of SOT.
Batteyr around 7 hours on regular basis and stretchable upto 9+ hours. Standby time of around 1.5 days.

It is relatively heavy, which can be defined as heavy.
SOT is also important to me as I used to listen to music on my way home + youtube steaming for over two hours a day.

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 Huawei P10 Lite before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
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

how is your battery holding off?

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:

9-12 hours depending on the workload and brightness. I easily get a day of use out of the device despite SOT. On top of that, %90 of the time I get 2 days without any issues.

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.

Battery life

Hello
I just received my s20 plus for a week now and the battery life just like my old s7 edge after 4 years .. 3.5 to 4.5 SOT .
Is this normal ?
Same here mate, but this might improve with software updates.... At least I hope so

I hope.. i am afraid that the device has high power consumption design that with time should only get worse.
Give it 4 days to settle down. But yes it does drain faster than s10+. I knew that before pre-ordering but I thought Samsung would have figured something out...
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Guys this is completely normal for the phone to drain this fast, the phone is learning all your usage patterns in order to adjust the battery, use this time to go over the settings and tweak it to your liking. Also in the s10+ forum there is a battery optimisation post, go over there and apply it to your phone. Also maybe you are using the ultra high definition and 120hz, maybe start with that to tweak it.
Another thing is if you just restore the phone from a backup, this can bring corrupted settings that might be the culprits do factory reset and install all from zero without a backup.
''maybe you are using the ultra high definition and 120hz, maybe start with that to tweak it.''
thats physically IMPOSSIBLE now
I assume that you are using the exynos versions?

I had 7 1/2 sot yesterday SD 120hz
Second day, 120Hz is lovely but damn, I'm at home connected to my WiFi and it's draining like crazy, I'm worried how is it gonna look when I go outdoors to the college and will be using LTE. I'm on Exynos
I'm getting 2 hours of SOT through my day (7 am to 10 pm)
It's been a week that I've been using the Exynos version @ 120Hz RR. Battery life is way worse than S10+ on similar settings, tweaks and usage pattern.
I have charged my phone for the 2nd time and i get +- 5 hours of sot. I use everything on the phone, 120hz etc. The battery is still in the learning pattern phase...getting same battery life as I got on my S10+. I get roughly 24 hours with one charge and 6 hours is included when I sleep...The battery will get better. With my S10+ I got 24-36 hours of battery time with +- 3-5 hours sot...depending on usage...So if I can get the same or a bit better I would be very happy

I'm reading pretty bad about the Exynos Ultra as well in different but reliable sources. It's a pain to have a primary driver that dies mid-day on medium usage, that era of "unacceptable batterylife" on a flagship is believed to be over years back. I remember me behaving in an uncivilized? manner with the ones who tried to defend Exynos S9+ in every online forum when the culprit was the SoC itself to start with..
no wonder they didnt want to enable 120hz at 2K res - it would kill the battery in 1h probably

7.5hrs screen on time? How? First person I've heard that high.
I have the S20+ with the snapdragon processor. I think the battery life is very good, way better than my P4XL. I have 4 hours sot right now and have 60% left. I'm using 120 hz refresh rate. I believe it has gotten better over time, either from "settling" or updates, or maybe my imagination, haven't actually checked but some nights I go to bed after a day of light use and I'm shocked at the battery left. I unplug at 6am and at 10pm I've seen 80% battery left. That's minimal use like I said, not a typical day.
I think the battery life is quite alright, on par with my second phone (OnePlus 7 pro)
Exynos/12gb ram/120hz: stranded on 12%, so it would be around 7.5hours of SOT in full day.
Note: got the phone 3 days ago, it's still settling.View attachment 4977585
Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk
I have the snapdragon version and the battery on this thing is a BEAST!
Going on 34 hours off the charger and 7 hours of sot. I have done nothing to conserve battery. Loads of apps/accounts syncing. I am super impressed. Way better then my s10+ was.
120hz on, about mid-brightness, I'm lasting all day use with my personal usage habits. Battery life is as good if not a bit better than on my Note 10+. Snapdragon here on T-Mobile. Mostly WiFi. But it's only been about a week of use.
Can't complain at all.
ETA: Also BT always on using with my Frontier watch and Galaxy Buds on occasion.
