Yes but i refer to the on screen time. The battery level goes down really fast once i turn on the screen. Like 12% in less than 20 minutes just looking at the gallery pictures.

Current level 34% I didn't play any games, just 57 minutes browsing, 15 on instagram... I really dont know what to think


Sorry, but what you saying doesn't really give us the complete picture, especially when seeing your screenshots. You are reporting high "screen on" usage, but you have 3h 10m (190m) of screen time and still on 37% battery with around 9h already on. That is bloody good seeing what else is going on in your phone. Looks like you are a heavy user, and probably should look at some options to top-up the juice to get you through to bed time.

Couple of weeks old now, phone is starting to get some serious battery time. Very busy at work last couple of days, the phone went without a charge for full 36 hours and with about 4.5h of screen on time. WiFi/4G about 50:50 time. Exynos version (AUS).
...and I have to return it now :(

I was always getting about 2-3 hours screen on time with my Nexus 6p and with my note & today I purely used the S pen and watched videos & my screen on time increased by a lot. It seems as though my usage style with a lot of interaction witn my device using my finger drastically reduces screen on time. This reinforces that SOT isn't a true metric for battery life.

Can get more screen on time with heavier usage rather than small intermittent usage where you keep turning the screen on and off.

Sure here u go
That's amazing man. I only able to get 5-6hrs with 80% LTE usage. If using 80% Wifi between 6-7hrs.
I'm using Exynos Note7.
Compared to my previous S7E, this note7 short by roughly 1hr of battery life.
I think it depends on what kind of apps installed and used.
Anyway, your batter life iss great!

why does this phone vary so much with battery life? how is it not consistent? it seems you either get 3 hours SOT or 6-7. that's such bs. even if the processors are different, how is this even acceptable?
