I still can manage to get 8 hours of SOT. You should upload some screenshots of your usage so we can take a look.

I had the same problem, from 8-10 hrs of SOT to just 3-4hrs hardly. After some time of usage my phone used to heat a lot. Luckily my device was under warranty and after lodging complaints thrice they changed the motherboard and everything was back to normal.
on the first visit they told it was a software issue and reflashed the software(7.1.1) - No Change
I lodged the complaint again and they deduced that it is a battery issue so they replaced the battery - No Change
Now they told that it's a motherboard issue so they replaced the motherboard and now the battery life is back to the "Z Play" Calibre.

Mine is still the same as it was a year ago, i still get around 1 Hr of SOT per 10% of charge, give or take depending on what im doing. I dont do any heavy work with the phone just browse, text/phone and listen to music occasionally, that could be it as to why its still giving very good backup, or maybe because im still on 6.0 could be why.

The issue is 7.1.1 probably being power hungry. I noticed battery lasted less after the initial Nougat update.
It's a Google thing. Most phones last a lot less on Nougat than they did on Marshmallow.

On 7.1.1 i get 8h max of usage with 4G on and wifi, gaming and browsing. No fb,messenger,snapchat apps.
But on MM the battery life was way better: 10-12h of SoT with same usage.
