So here we go again a new flagship and a lot of reviews said the phone had an impressive battery life. What is your experience? Post bbs or screenshots

I'm getting drain from android os and android system, since I'm not rooted I can't pin point what's causing it.

Wait till two to three charge cycles are complete. The battery life normally increases.

What kind of usage was this? Mainly browsing? Videos? LTE or Wifi?

Almost all on WiFi -- browsing, installing and setting up a bunch of apps, listening to music/podcasts for roughly an hour or so, texting, phone talk time around 20-30mins...things of that sort.

Pretty impressive for one of the initial charges of the device and this type of usage.

Definitely! I was impressed myself, especially since I came from an iPhone that had a depressing 1400mAh battery. In the time it took for one full discharge on my S5, I would have needed to do 1.5-2 charges on my iPhone :laugh:

Much better than my GS3. 30% at least.

And Charges about twice as fast.

Not kidding.

Getting outstanding battery life on my g900a. Once someone figures out root for it and i get greenify working properly it should be even better.

Siting at 8H 25M 11S on Battery. AT&T S5. The thing that is killing my battery the most, Gear Fit Manager at a19% then Android at 16% and Screen at 14%. I have only charged 2 times so far since I bought the phone on Sunday, Ran it down to 9-10% yesterday but it took forever to charge. In over two hours of charge time it went from 10% to 37%. My iPhone 5 would have been 100% or close to it. Never had android phone before (really enjoying it) so not sure if this is normal or it will get faster the more charging cycles.

Thanks
