How to reliably get 10 hours of screen on time or more with the snapdragon s9+.
I do not use the "battery saving modes" under the top swipe menu. If you only apply parts of these settings, you will get worse battery life. I can reliabally get 10 hours with 30% brightness. I have gotten over 13 hours with more conservative settings, btw.

connections>

/NFC and payment (off)

Display>
Auto brightness (off) ; change the brightness yourself when you need it.

Screen resolution HD (1480x720)
Led indicator (off)

Direct call (off)
Smart alert (off)
Easy mute (off)

Smart lock (disable everything)
Biometrics (off) ; use a pin, fingerprint or password.
Always on display (off) ; this is a important one
App permission monitor (off)
Cloud accounts>
Off, use google drive only.
If not enough space use SD card, there is a card reader in the phone for a reason.
NFC; off
Bluetooth; off
Secure folder; off
Edge lighting; off
Smart view; off
Dolby atmos; off
Now the important bits
Download and use google messages
Download and use google dialer. (You need to use the patched one for non nexus devices.)
Download and use nova launcher (I cant use Samsung experience without being displeased)
Download and use google contacts
Download and use gboard
Long press on power saving
Unmonitored apps> messages, phone, gboard, contacts
Always sleeping apps>
Every single app in the phone that you do not depend on auto updating in the background.
PS: I personally am offering a bounty for modifying the SD card to be internal storage without root. I tried the classic adb commands to no avail.
