Had the phone just 2 days and noticed that the Android System is taking most of battery. I am managing 3.5 hours on full brightness. I am happy with that but I am wondering why the Android System is taking up so much. Any ideas?

I'd love to know this as well since it also takes the most ram. My S3 was, sadly, more efficient.

It's not a huge problem for me as the battery is still good. I just want to know what could cause it.

Also, when leaving over night. It went down 1% an hour. Is that good?

I'd say so. You must not have very many background processes. Have you turned off bloatware?

Here is a screenshot too just to prove I'm not talking trash haha. I uninstalled Facebook as sometimes that would idle and chew 100+MB of ram. I also disabled some bloat too

Check your battery stats, mine uses 10-15% in an hour...

Autobrightness or manual?

(please, don't tell me 100% brightness...)

Autobrightness on... also the lights of my buttonss don't turn off even if I set it to 1.5 seconds, the only way to fix it is enabling ultra P saving For a moment. .but when I reboot the phone, the problem is back
