Question Battery life thread

[MArtyChubbs]

My battery life is not great. Became worse after rooting. Better than my 4XL, but not getting "all day plus" battery life.

What are others experiencing?

I'm absolutely blown away. Every morning I have a routine where I go outside and have my coffee and chain smoke a few darts, read the news, look at memes and such and typically I'm using it about an hour and on my S21+ or Z Fold 3 I'd always be down to 93 or 94%. Today was no different and I was still at 100 after doing so. I then went to work and used Android auto so it stayed full until about 830 am when I took it off the charger. It's 745 pm and I'm at 80% with just a bit over 4 hrs sot. Didn't tweak any settings whatsoever to try and save battery.

Often but not always poor battery is dependant on what apps you have that are running in the BG or sending push notifications, etc. Some games like to do that and just destroy battery life. Facebook likes to kill battery that's for sure. That's really the only social media site I use regularly. I likely won't have many games on this. I'll jus my fold for games

Do you have AOD on? Lift to wake? Curious what settings you have

Yep everything on. The only setting I turned off was having wifi scanning. I like to enjoy and utilize all the features for the most part

Twitter is my only social media and no games. Time for BBS.

7h40 of SOT in 14 hours. Mostly wifi. No games, but messaging web and vidéo.
I was hoping better...
Also, with official 30w charger it did not reach 50% but 43 from 5% left.

Subjectively, battery life seems to be pretty cool. Nothing seems to drain particularly quickly and I've only had to charge a couple of times since Tuesday. Features such as lift to wake are all on. The only one that isn't is always on display as I never find that very useful when lift to wake is active.

Battery is absolutely fine for me. I've always charged my phone's at night anyway so as long as it lasts all day with my usage its good. It would last about a day and half if i wasn't charging each night. Screen on time has been between 5-7 hours with battery left of at least 40% each evening. I've turned off AOD this morning to see if that makes much difference in the next couple days as well.

Finally a positive thread hopefully with real experiences and no trolls.

Wow how can it differ so much from other people's experiences.. Something is definitely wrong or off. Maybe 5g?

I don't own this device but would be interesting to test out battery life after trimming most of the Google spyware/scam processes, GAPPs completely replaced and extreme overall de-bloating/trimmed setup for max batt. I'm guessing the results may be quite impressive...

Definitely. I feel Google now, aod, constant listening for background music and being alert for "Hey Google" increases consumption big time

Mine is getting better and better every day. Like everyone should know, it takes a few cycles. I already accepted the fact that it will not be as good as my P5.
