battery life - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

I watched a review on youtube of the note10 not the plus.. And the SOC was only 3 to 4 hours max which concerns me about the note 10 plus... I hope it's more then the note 9?

Using the Note10+ 9825 version. Lasts me as long as my previous phone which was S10+.
However, it still is learning my usage patterns. Results may vary in future (2 weeks).
Can't say battery here is bad, but it's not great either. Bear in mind I'm using a pretty raw version of the firmware.

I wouldn't worry about the snapdragon version. My buddy sent me this. They're getting about 8-10hrs with LTE and mixed usage.

Gonna share my usage details too (tmrw) so you would know what to expect from daily usage.

You have to give it time. I found with my S10 plus that my battery was horrible at first. I know this because I had to swap my phone, essentially, 5 times because of the LTE issue. Each swap the battery sucked for the first week or so then it evened out. Just be patient. [emoji16]

Could you compare Note10+ vs S10+ interm of temperature? Does it heat up too high @ heavy load?
If battery life are the same, temp same too, I think!

I used S10+ 9820. Note 10+ with 9825 heats noticeably less. The only heavy load for me was an hour of tes blades and it wasn't that hot. However, playing the same game on S10+ didn't cause much heat either.
But it's free to state that in daily usage Note10+ feels cooler than S10+.
Battery life seems pretty identical.

per the screenshot, this sucks. Its the same as My Note 9. I understand the screen is bigger by about 6.25% but I would expect better not just because the battery is bigger (7.5%) but because the cpu is smaller with 7nm vs 10, and better software. I'll cross longer battery life as a reason of just a few to upgrade.

Can't tell for your country. In Russia some people who preordered it will get it on Agust 16th. What I know for sure, most of the stores around the globe have them already in stock but selling or giving them out is strictly prohibited.

First Note 10+ video of battery life. ITS A BEAST!:
https://youtu.be/RTezwqJgo5M

So, here's my battery result for Monday.
I'm using the 9825 version.
The device was removed from charging pod at 11:30~ p.m. yesterday, the screenshot was taken today at 8:15 p.m.
Resolution set - WQHD +, brightness outdoors - around 70%, indoors - 40%, the night mode wasn't applied throughout the whole day. AoD has been working since 7 a.m. up to the point of taking the screenshot.
Wi-Fi had been working from 11:30 p.m. until 8:50 a.m. LTE has been working for the whole day without disabling. Bluetooth and Poweramp - 1 hour 35 minutes. I used NFC for a couple of times to make a payment. Rest of the usage is messengers, browsing, social networks, etc.
The adaptive period (2 weeks) has not passed yet, the device discharged for 6% during the night. I didn’t do any hardcore configurations nor disabled any applications or services. Almost stock experience settings wise, however, I have around 500~ apps installed including system ones.

i know they have it.. back in Feb i pre ordered S10+ Ceramic from a 3rd party seller and even though they receive the phone 5 days earlier they didn't want to give the order until Mar 8.
now i pre ordered Note 10+ directly to Samsung.. maybe i will be lucky to receive it at least 20 of Aug.. maybe

I worked inventory at Best buy for a few years and Everytime a new Samsung phone would launch we would receive them in batches around 2 to 3 weeks before the launch date. iPhones on the other hand wouldn't be received by us until a day or two before the release in massive deliveries. They most likely already have them if not they will be receiving them very soon they just can't sell them since they won't even appear in the POS system.

Reconfig Adguard to make it eat less battery. Just disable filter apps like Social, Messaging, Google Apps ... Think about the apps you don't need to filter it

Battery life is a combination of literally hundreds of factors. Comparing battery life is a meaningless process except in controlled situations.
One person can get great battery and another person a few feet away can get crap on the same model phone.
How much you use your phone (based on AI tuned optimizations), what apps you have on your phone, the brand of WiFi router you have, the color of your shirt, the brightness in the room, how cloudy of a day it is, how often you enter and exit a building, and on and on can make small impacts on your battery that add up to your total battery life. It is impossible to replicate or compare in the real world.

Are you returning your Note 7? If so, why?

I am seriously considering this option due to the poor battery life and scratch issues. Anyone else on the same boat? Just curious to know what made you think about returning the device?

I am on the fence myself. The locked bootloader and an uncertain future regarding even a reliable root has me concerned. T-Mobile is slowly turning into the carrier I left (VZW) for them.
I believe I am going to be returning. I still have 9 days to be within my 14 day return period for Verizon. I am just overall not very impressed with the phone. I came from an iPhone 6s. The only things I have been enjoying more are the larger screen and the fact that it is ip68 resistant. I haven't been using the s-pen as much as I thought I would and the overall user experience for me just hasn't been as satisfying as I had hoped. I am also very, very unimpressed with battery life.
I think I'm going to return the the 6s and wait to see what Apple offers in a few weeks with the new iPhone. If not that, then I'll wait till early next year for another Samsung device possibly. Probably won't pre-order again either. Let others get their experience in and find out the faults of the phone before I go through ordering myself.

This is always the case regarding root and locked bootloaders concerning Samsung phones in recent years, my friend. I have been using this phone without a case and love the ergonomics of the phone. I use it mainly for business and an iPhone 6s Plus as my personal. The S-pen comes in handy with signing docs, smart select is useful, and note taking in general. I have not been happy with battery life compared to the Moto Z Force I put in the drawer for this. Overall I'll more than likely keep it because it suits my needs with business.
My screen has uneven backlighting and there is no other stock still for the phone. I will not keep a defective phone which is why I'm considering it, I am overall impressed with the device considering its features. It's a little slower than some other android phones I have used like the oneplus 3 and the nexus 6P. I think I would keep it otherwise.
SOT > 6h
No battery draining issues.
Phones are as snappy as it can be.
I suggest if you have lag issues, go to your friendly neighbourhood carrier outlet and have your device checked or exchanged.
I am using an international exynos FD model.

The battery life is bugging me a lot. Also, the stuttering is stupid for such an expensive phone. Lastly, it isn't enough for me to leave my iPhone. I know.. i know... the iPhone just worked. Thats it.
Anyone talking Iphone on this thread is looking for a reason to go back to that "limited" format. My device works perfect! The only battery issues i have is with my GearS2
Glass back? Broke in 16 hours. Idiotic and really, gorilla Glass? Dropped it maybe 2.25 ft. From sitting down and it shattered. Thought shattered anything was an iPhone issue. Have had nothing but Samsung since the first note. Never a case issue till 2 feet ago.
Stupid. Glass back? Who the **** cares about the back

Literally just packed my Note 7 back into its box, and being returned later in the morning. Didn't even last me a full week unfortunately. I truly wanted to love this phone, I really did, but the amount of lag that this phone suffers from is just unacceptable for its high end price.

Yes, i am holding back on the Note 7 to see what the LG brings. Looks promising so far.
HELL NO. Just got the LED case and I love it. This phone is awesome.

Zero clue how you are getting that long of SOT. That is nuts. I decided not to return the phone anyway, but the best SOT I have seen so far is around 4 hours. Is there anything you have done specifically to increase your SOT. 9-9 hours is really a lot.

I will also hold up and now seriously thinking on keeping the S7 Edge which literally is the same phone... i too had hopes that diminished sadly. For years a fan of the Note's series..
I ve written an article about why the OnePlus 3 is the better phone to get here.. and why Samsung has let us down again.

Before any of you return your Note 7 for battery issues, please try the steps in the following link. I along with most others had these same issues with the S7E and now many of us get 2 days and 9 hours SOT with one charge.
Follow these steps and report back.

Thats a garbage post mate. A lot of users do even more than this. Even with 129 disabled apps / services I dont need, disabled GPS, all of the random sensors in settings, and SOO much more.. I should be getting more SOT than 6.5.

S9 battery doesnt last more than 7 - 8 hour before going completely to 0 % w/ nom use

S9 battery doesn't seem to hold a charge. I can't get more than about 7 hours of usage with just nominal usage. Is this normal? I have already minimize all my background , etc. Doesn't the battery last normally up to 12 hour or more with some nominal usage?
Mine is the same.
Been like this since the android 9 (pie) update and never been the same since. No update has ever fixed this issue.
Used to last 2 days with android 8 (oreo)

my S9 battery life is abysmal also especially compared to the A8 i came from. Its never been good since i got it in july, and ive flashed the U1 firmware and uninstalled every crap-app i could find. very irritating to have a phone released 18 mos ago and it have such issues. I thought they were supposed to iron this garbage out over release iterations
I agree mate. I think i will be going to apple next time. Samsung don't care

Well, Samsung cares a lot, you're now using the S9 which is released 18 months ago, recent samsung flagships like the the S10+ and the note 10+ have excellent battery life.
My friend's iPhone X battery capacity has dropped a lot and he's using it since less than one year, and another friend noticed that her iPhone X's battery isn't great since she got it.

Samsung do not care. They just want us to buy there new products everytime they are released. They do not care for older devices, even if they are not that old. The s10+ and note 10+ may have excellent battery life now, as the s9 did when it was first released. But i bet with the release of Android 10 it will ruin the battery. And Samsung will not care, there priorities will be with the s11 and note 11.
Am not saying apple has a solid performance in battery life, but they still care about older devices letting them update ios versions for years and years.

If you don't know, older iPhones have bad battery life.
My friend's S8+ lasts more than a day on a single charge, so if samsung is making the battery worse in each software update, my friend's s8+ shouldn't last that long, especially that it's released two years and a half ago, right?

I believe that is because Android Oreo was solid in terms of battery life. My S9 started with Android Oreo and the battery life was really good. Since the update to Pie it has been terrible. I don't know what android 10 will bring but hopefully it will sort out this mess with S9 battery
At first, I did have pretty bad battery life, so I started investigating as far as a non-rooted aspects go. I installed BBS and GSAM battery monitor, enabled permissions with ADB and started checking. The biggest drain was Google Play Services SBM (significant body motion), Bixby and Samsung Location services.
This is a list of things I disabled:
Everything Bixby. Can't stand Bixby and use google assistant anyways.
Disabled all Permissions for Google Play Services, it does not need any permission anyways.
Disabled Samsung Location. Don't need it when you have Google Location.
Disabled Google location sharing and history, I always do this anyways
Installed Greenify and enabled permissions with ADB. I have not greenified any apps, just turned on aggressive doze.
There may be more things I have done, but can't remember right off hand. With the above done, in 5h 44min since unplugged, I have 4hr 30 min deep sleep and 1.4%/hr discharge. I can usually go 3 days on a charge, which at first was only getting about a day and a half on charge.

dude, do you not keep up with the news? apple is under major fire for intentionally sabotaging their "aging" devices. They have been caught red handed intentionally slowing devices down to spur users to buy the new one. Android phones have never in the history of modding suffered battery issues or random slow-downs because the release date of the device is x months ago. Dumbest thing ive heard all day..... heres an article showing that apple is intentionally doing this and they are facing potential law suits

Question S22 battery life vs 5yo device (HTC U11, new battery).

So the whole internet is questioning the smaller battery in the vanilla S22.
However as I am upgrading from a HTC U11 I am expecting it at least to not be a downgrade regarding battery life, right?
I am finding it hard to compare online, so I hoped someone over here would be able to say something wise on this subject before I put my pre-order in.
My U11 has had a new battery quite recently and I am satisfied with the battery life.
If the S22 would be similar or better I would be happy to buy it.
Of course it's difficult to talk on S22 battery life as the device is barely out but maybe someone could elaborate on their knowledge, for example from owning a S21?
i doubt itd be worse, as the exynos 2200 should be much more power efficient than the snapdragon 835 (considering the efficiency of the exynos 2100). all in all it shouldnt be a downgrade, though it may not be too impressive either. maybe wait for it to release and wait for some reviews, then buy it. thats the safe option.
Thanks for your reply, I will await some reviews for sure.
The difficult thing is that reviewers are (of course) comparing to current models.
I would like a comparison with my current device.
As long as it's no downgrade for sure, it would be good enough for me.
Look for a battery life/charging test for the S22, then test your own phone and compare.
There are multiple battery tests on youtube and they are all looking good. Marques Brownlee and some influencers bashed s22 battery right after the launch date and may have scared off few people but they have all retracted their opinions after more and more real life test results started popping up.
S22 should last all day, most test results have 5-7 SOT depending on the usage. Same tests show that Plus and Ultra have longer battery life but not by a long shot.
I have had the S22 for 3 days now. After debloating and turning off nearly everything in the background that I don't need, I think a full day will be no problem. I was worried as the battery seemed small versus the larger phones.
If you don't "fiddle" with your phone and run this right from the box I think you will struggle to last the entire day. There is a lot of crap on the phone running. There are so many hidden settings. So many apps trying to run in the background. Trying to connect/search for other devices.
I am coming from a 3 year old Huawei P30 Pro with Emui 10 and I find this software terrible (even compare to Emui! )
I used ADB AppControl to debloated. Great software. Very easy.

I too got my S22 and the battery performance is good as I only play games for an hour but the phone withstands for 1&half day! Try to optimize the battery and clean the background running apps.

Could you tell which apps you removed and what exact fiddling you did?
I switched from HTC U11+ to S22+ and I am really disappointed with the battery life.
I can`t even get through a day, with SOT less than 3 hours.
Mine is set to be delivered tmrw. if anyone has hands on knowledge on what to debloat it would be tremendously helpful.
Thanks

Good info - I am hoping that the 60 hertz refresh rate will improve SOT a lot .
I like the size but I HATE that they did not make it .2 inches thicker and give it 4100 MAH !
Or a PRO version - .3 thicker for another $100-150 with 4500 MAH . People like me who use phone as a laptop and millions of others would love it.
Marketing research shows that the thinness is a big selling point ?¿
You will not meet women if your phone is too thick ?¿
¿ = WTF lol

I too got my S22 and the battery performance is good as I only play games for an hour but the phone withstands for 1&half day! Try to optimize the battery and clean the background running apps.

Also - I wonder if there is a fixed refresh rate like 60 hertz only .
Because - the variable refresh rate may use battery as it is always scanning usage to assign ( possibly ) refresh rate.
The refresh rate for static pages was supposed to go down to 10 hertz but only S22 ULTRA does this .
So gamers should be able to switch to 120 hertz when needed ...and hopefully the rest of us can save battery by setting 'fixed 60 hertz '- hopefully .
I have not purchased S22 yet until I am sure I can get 6 hours SOT on LTE 4 or 5G at 30 % to 35 % brightness.
I Appreciate all the info here.

I have had the S22 for 3 days now. After debloating and turning off nearly everything in the background that I don't need, I think a full day will be no problem. I was worried as the battery seemed small versus the larger phones.
If you don't "fiddle" with your phone and run this right from the box I think you will struggle to last the entire day. There is a lot of crap on the phone running. There are so many hidden settings. So many apps trying to run in the background. Trying to connect/search for other devices.
I am coming from a 3 year old Huawei P30 Pro with Emui 10 and I find this software terrible (even compare to Emui! )
I used ADB AppControl to debloated. Great software. Very easy.

I am very happy to fiddle!
Never owned a Samsung device, so some new techniques to master maybe.
Would ADB AppControl require root?
As I'm reluctant to root directly because I might return the device if I'm not happy (battery & haptic notifications?).

kinda disappointing how my budget poco m3 lasts 2 days with heavy usage, but a flagship which is 2 years newer can barely manage a day.. i know that high end devices consume more power, and the battery in the s22 is smaller. but i wouldve expected tech to become advanced enough for it to atleast compete with larger battery counterparts which are releasing in 2022. so far the s22 and s22 ultra are pretty disappointing in battery life. though, the mi 12 with the 888 gen1 chipset doesnt have great battery life either.. so not really sure if its the chip or the batteries. guess we'll find out more as we progress through the year.

I haven't had that experience at all. I've had my Snapdragon S22 Ultra four days now and battery life is amazing.
if anyone backed up and restored with Smart Switch, I recommend either factory resetting your phone and starting from scratch or resetting your apps and settings. My Smart Switch backup was killing my battery. And in the day it's been factory reset, battery life is much better.

No root required. Very simple instructions. Enable Developer mode and turn on USB Debugging.

Using ADB AppControl I did the following (My phone is running fine now *See edit*)
(**you can probably delete all of these instead of disable AND some apps with be auto-disabled if they are not used which is nice...)
*Do this at your own risk* And I won't be adding more this thread. I am very happy with my phone.
I did it heavily as my phone was new and if I had to do a factory reset I was OK with that).
*Edit*
- I had to enable KPECore services. It was affecting Automate from acknowledging I had paid for it.
**YouTube - I use Vanced Micro G and YouTube Vanced
**Facebook - Left this battery hog and toxic service long ago.
**Amazon - Reinstalled from Appstore. Just disabled for no particular reason.
*Some of the spelling is off as I used an OCR text recognition from screenshots of ADB AppControl instead of typing each one out manually.

Question What is the reason you purchased the A52S 5g?

What prompted the purchase of this phone for you? I'll go first
I liked that it has a 64 mega pixel camera although it was a little disappointing there was no ability to do any zoom on pictures. The better processor was another reason and the price for what I was getting I liked. Lastly screen size is decent. So far after 5 months use, I'm still pretty satisfied. How about you?
I purchase a A52S because my old Galaxy s4 died after 8 years of use...

My S4 still works but I use it for music in back yard stereo system... sorry yours died..
I chose it because it was literally the perfect phone. The Samsung One UI, The display, and everything about the phone. Personally it looks very good in black. Plus for the fact that they sold it for 3500 SEK. (approximately 350EUR)
I’ve been using it for the past 4 months and I have to say this phone is very, very good.

Just like bobfrantic said, English only.
Anyways, It is pretty good. About 6-7h with 120hz and 7-8 with 60hz.
This is for pretty light use though.
before buying it, check that the mobile phone has the following requirements :
Root
work all app i use ( app bank etc... )
Snapdragon CPU only, more powerful than what I had before
the best it offered me as value for money was a52s, the audio jack is an addition that I didn't think necessary, but I wanted a smartphone with an under-screen imprint.
the other choice was the realme gt master edition but it could not be rooted safely and therefore the only choice at the moment on the market valid for me was the a52s
I bought it because:
Security updates: Samsung will offer security updates until 2025, four years after launch, and tends to provide timely updates. For work email/calendar my phone needs to have security updates no older than three months.
Price: Got it for £220 used off eBay. Price is right.
Removable microSD card: I insist on removable storage.
Headphone port: I insist on a 3.5mm headphone port.
Better than A53: I'd have gotten the A53 instead if it had been better, but it was not better. It was worse.
Optical Image Stabilization: I actually care very little about the camera. One thing I do care about is having OIS for picture stability especially in low light.
I came from a Motorola One Vision towards the end of its security update life. I actually liked that phone better (mostly because of a stock Android One feel, and I'm not a fan of an in-screen fingerprint reader, I like rear-mounted fingerprint readers, perfect for a finger when holding the phone), but it was only a matter of time before it stopped getting security updates. And Android One is practically dead.

I agree with you about the A53, comparison on gsmarena with this phone showed me the a53 would be a step backwards. Samsung missed the mark this time... And I got my A52S from my provider for 199€ with their discount. I only have to stay a customer for 2 years but that no problem for me.
Arobase40 said:
Don't understand how you can say there is no ability to do any zoom on pictures when this is not the truth ?!?!?!
With recorded pictures it's pretty easy to do zoom with Samsung Gallery (not sure this is the real name of the app) and in the Camera app you can zoom by 10x and you also have a macro option... ^^
Otherwise I got the A51 phone before but it was not compatible with 700MHz bandwidth used mostly by a single French carrier : Free Mobile and I'm changing of carriers almost every year depending on the promotion...
In France we have the lowest price for mobile or fiber internet subscriptions...

While taking pictures with camera set to 3x4 64 mpx you cannot use the zoom. All other modes for pictures you do have zoom. And sure once in gallery you can you can zoom any pic of course.
For me 2 things matter in this acquisition . Brand and price . First I was disappointed regarding some punctual things compared to other new phone I bought also (OnePlus Nord 2) but after A 12 and One UI 4.1 update , A52s was improved and now I'm some kind pleased of it . Finnaly , I'm going to sell it after a short while ...

My old S5 which my mom used since 2020 just died a few days ago & I'll probably buy her an A52s as it's better than the A53 and would be better than the A54 too lol
Overall I'm amazed my S5 survived for almost 8 years 5 of which with me (and I did literally everything that could be done to it xd). She dropped it and this time the screen turned white with some small colored dots on it and the phone bootloops. It's time to let it go, was a great phone these almost 8 years

bruh, not gonna lie, that kinda sucks... my 2yo+ xiaomi mi 9t with lineageos lasts for around 2 days with normal usage, but it used to keep up to 4 days...
typical usage: chat, social media, memes during the day and some 1-2hrs of yt or streaming tv shows before bedtime, but no unnecessary bull**** like bluetooth, nfc etc (unless needed) and no background usage meaning apps are closed whenever I don't use them

Lineage in general should give A52s better SOT as well. Still in the works though.

My condolences.
I own a Galaxy S4 too. Quite one of the best phones and mine died too....
I might try again to revive it in the future as the oldschool smartphone.
I was able to revive it temporalily couple years ago with a hairdryer blowing hot air on the mobo and made it work for a while and backed everything up. True story
My Poco X3's camera performance annoyed me beyond belief, so I got the A52s as the best all rounder, and didn't want to spend more money than needed.
Fortunately, my financials improved so I might just ditch it for the S23 Ultra when it's out.

Question Experience Performance of the vivo x80 pro and heating issues

I've been wanting to get this phone as my daily driver. I've been wanting something with stellar performance and a top notch camera.
If I do end up getting it, I want to use it for four years.
I'm coming from a oneplus 6, which has handled its fair share of hardcore usage. From heavy multi tasking, to having its hot-spot stay on for 12 hours a day, to heavy gaming, and a phone loaded with data, Its seen it all.
I wanted to know whether the vivo users here think that the x80 pro will be able to take such hardcore usage day in and out for at least 4-5 years?
I am just a little worried before I spend all this money on a brand which I know very little about. Especially because most of the information online seems to be "sponsored" by vivo. I mean the phone does look really promising on paper. But would it be able to take this beating in real life?
I also heard that the vivo x80 pro heats up doing regular things such as watching YouTube videos etc. and that I'd be better off waiting for the vivo x80 pro plus. Would that be a good idea? I was really looking forward to the vivo. So any input would be appreciated.
Hi,
I've the vivo x80 pro (origin is, 512 gb, dim9000) since two weeks, coming from OnePlus 5 which was my hardcore daily driver. After solving some issues with notifications and drawer style I'm very happy with it. Camera, display, charging, customize options, speed is really perfect compared to OnePlus.
Having a videocall over 45 min with turned on selfiecamera the phone gets warm - we had 35 degrees of Celsius yesterday in Germany ... Haven't played any game so far, so no experience with that. I'm getting also used to the missing notification badges on my home display and to its size/weight.
Battery performance improves day by day - after one day normal usage (weekend day: Reddit, YouTube, Spotify, WhatsApp, browsing, taking pictures) more than 50% capacity is left, therefore it would last about 2 days without recharging in my case.
Summary: I'm very happy with the purchase hoping that the x80 pro will last 5 years at least.

Hey, thank you so much for your reply. However, I am in India so I would probably be getting the snapdragon version. The dimensity version is either too expensive or too difficult to get where I live.
I wanted to know the above about the snapdragon version.
Hi
I've the vivo x80 pro (origin is, 512 gb, dim9000) since last week. I have ordered the Snapdragon version but i get the Dim 9000.
My daily driver was a redmi Note 10. The Vivo had some issues which i sorted out last weekend.
It was very warm here in Germany, 38 degrees, and I was busy the whole weekend with my new phone.
A lot has been tried, installed, adjusted and tested, of course the phone has also been charged several times.
This phone hasn't gotten warmer than the Redmi Note 10.
But with the quick charge it gets warm.
I ´am very happy this this phone and the performance an camera is a big step up from the old phone

Depending on scenario there is not that big difference between snap and dim9000 - in my opinion, you will not notice a 2-3% difference in performance, battery life or heat. 2% based on 40 degrees of celsius is 0.8 degrees difference -> your hand will be not able to tell you if the phone is 40.0 or 40.8 degrees hot. Therefore, the difference between snap and dim9000 is really negligible when benchmarking normal day usage.
/edit: I've been watching youtube videos yesterday more than 1.5 hours, the phone was not getting too hot although we had crazy high temperatures in Southern Germany.
Wow, thank you so much for your comprehensive reply.
I will definitely take this into consideration.
However, I would also want input from a snapdragon user just for the peace of mind before I put all this money into purchasing this phone.
Just got the X80 Pro SD8G1 version and already got some nice updates as well as optinal updates(They call it Trial updates, though it acts like Beta).
On the first day, due to all the transferring I've done from mine legendary Mate 40 Pro, it got hot but not scorching hot.
The camera is SuperB as you've heard and seen thought the reviews, it's extremely versatile and the ISP is fast, yet again it did get hot but ever so slightly, nothing to worry about.
Battery is being tested so i don't have a conclusion yet, but it should be solid though probably nothing like iPhone 13 Pro Max or the Mate 20 X(best Android battery life EVER).
Speakers are very good but lacks some bass.
Overall performance are very solid and the charge speed is fast as hell.
Now, battery will get a hit over the year with heavy use and i'm unsure how this will unfold, but judging from my past you should not worry about it.
You'll have a blast with this phone, just wish it was bigger with bigger battery but well...

I am so glad to hear all these positive things about the phone.
However, I can't help but mention a review i was watching online where they used the camera on this phone for a while. Perhaps around 20+ minutes outdoors and it got super hot to the point where it was unable to perform.
Just wanted to see whether you've experienced anything like this using the camera?

Funtouch OS 12 and you can try FunTouch os13 if you want.
So far it's very smooth outside the stock gallery app which lags a bit, but that can be easily replaced.

That happened to me with mine Mate 9 and Galaxy devices, you should minimize the sun reflection on the phone as it heats it up massively, don't forget that black colour sucks heat more than any others.

Well Vivo should release X80Pro Plus in July if rumors are to be believed.
You can always wait but it's kinda endless, for now i ordered the Vivo x80 pro to replace the legendary Mate 40 pro.
If they'll be a much better phone down the road, then i'll sell it.

Well, I definitively avoid phones with CN roms. Basic things like fully working Google apps, notifications, Android auto, 3rd party launchers etc are often problematic with these
