A lot have their phones now. Let's see your battery experience, please

Please state whether you have the exynos or snapdragon.

Thanks

I have to say, the battery has been pretty solid on my first full day of use (I only had a half day's use yesterday). 10 hours of talk time coupled with 4 hours of screen time, and getting 15 hours of battery is pretty good. I can't complain at all.

Note:
-Snapdragon
-WQHD selected
-Adaptive Power saving on
-I have wifi set to turn on and off automatically
-Bluetooth on (and in use the majority of the day)
-Link with Windows on
-Live wallpaper
-AOD on
-2 email accounts on push
-Screen brightness on auto

Ok after the weekend it settled. I had bad battery life initially because I suspect syncing almost 8 thousand photos to the cloud took a hit. Fully charged and wifi on, for 3.5hrs, I lost 4%. That is amazing from my Note 9 losing 30% while sleeping. I mean no apps were used, idk how that happened lol.

Same here, it finally settled for me too. Yesterday I was on it all day. Taking pictures, Facebooking, watching YouTube, mostly surfing the Internet. It hit 0% and shut down with 9 hours and 50 minutes of screen on time. Now I was on WiFi 99.9% of that time, but still. I'm happy with that performance.

You can't argue with that

Today has been mostly wifi. I don't live in a 5G area but travel for a living, so I got the 5G version. Battery life is a little less without wifi,but not massively worse.

Great info, it's good to know those settings. That is very good battery life. WiFi or 4/5g?

Earlier this evening I threw it on the charger while I watched a movie. But before I did, I checked screen time. 4 hrs 14 mins with 65% battery left. That was mostly internet browsing, some YouTube, and some Facebook. All on WiFi. It seems the battery just gets better and better.

And by the way, off topic, I'm not sure what you all think of the haptic feedback of the N10+, but mine is just very nice and crisp. I turned up intensity just a notch in settings, but it just makes typing on this thing so nice.

I agree... Note 10+..is like... So fun to use... Well worth the update from note 9!

I lose about 2% overnight if I take it off the charger at 100% before bed. Big improvement over the 8-10% lost on my Note9. I'll post screen shots later as I get the battery down to a much lower percentage. I've had it since the 21st.... I'm highly impressed with the battery life. I'm on 85% and feel no need to charge before I go or today.

I see everyone is getting great results on WiFi. What about 4g/5g experiences?

A normal day usage..100% charged before leaving for work. Youtube, twitter, Amazon music used while travelling. I would say out of SOT of 4hrs, around 2.5 hrs would be on LTE. as an estimate SOT on only LTE should be in between 5-6hr range depending on your usage. On WiFi it will be 8-9hrs. I don't play games so for gamers SOT will be less ofcourse.
