Screen on time

XDA_RealLifeReview · May 23, 2018

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 HTC U12+ before depleting the battery.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

A full day of use can easy be achieved using the U12+ with an on screen time around 4/5 hours.

I usually charge mine every other day with about 6 hours of screen on time. My wife, however, managed this.

Wow that very impressive screen on time. Any more information on her usage? Just Facebook for example?

Mostly Facebook, Pinterest, gaming, and web browsing.

What kinds of games does she play? Whenever I play games, I usually only get ~3hrs SoT time

I realized, after posting yesterday, that she could have had some charge time in there(forgot to check) and that would have made it look like SoT was longer than it actually was.

I checked her phone again last night and she had 6.5 hours SoT and 21 hours since last charge with 3% left.

She plays mostly casual games... Grow Castle, Neko Atsume, Candy Crush.

Thanks for the info. I find I'm getting 3-4 hours SoT whenever I play any games, but usually gain an extra hour when I'm not playing games. Wasn't sure if that's normal or bad considering what you posted about your wife's habits.

Battery life seems to be on the lower end of the spectrum. My Pixel 2 XL gets much better battery life compared to the U12.

What did that do for you? Did it improve your battery life

Just bought the phone for a week, all is perfect unless the battery .
ideal time is fine around one day and more, screen on time around 5/6 hours.
if your change the display resolution from Quad HD+ to FHD+ it will give you extra one hour .

thats not poor battery life, is average i would say

Battery is even better on latest update. I would get even more if it wasn't for me being in work and getting a weak mobile signal 47% from this. 1 Day and 19 hours 30min on a full charge with just under 5 hours screen on time, usage from games, youtube, Facebook chrome, phone calls so a high usage also. I am very happy with this phone battery.

Anyone also have the HTC U11? If so, how does it compare in screen on time? I'm considering upgrading, but don't really want to take a big hit in that area.

idees · Aug 27, 2018

Anyone else?

Nobody? This thread seems to be dead like HTC company.

First charge looks promising

Hello,

If I compare the screen on times of my new HTC U12+ with your pictures, could you please tell me what did I wrong?

Screen brightness is about 15%. Apps like Facebook, GMail, Google Drive, Alexa, Messenger, News Republic and so on are deactivated.

I reached 1 hours 38 minutes screen on time with 33% battery left.

Please advise.

i would uninstall that batterystat app, those are only useful if you want to find battery draining apps and they drain battery in return.
