Screen on time

[XDA_RealLifeReview]

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 Samsung Galaxy Note 8 before depleting the battery.

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

Actually good, I thought it was going to be worse.

Not good iff you compare with s8plus,

Huh... That's about the same as the Nexus 6p I guess. Not thrilled

I can work with that...I usually turn off a lot of stuff I don't use and keep my screen at a brightness that I need, not want. I also disable apps that I don't use...this will be awesome

I actually read that wrong, that's much better than my 6p

After applying disable package? what is that?

 

[HeRe4oNeReAsoN]

After a couple of days, minimal packages disabled, Screen brightness average 75% (half the time 50, half at 100%), Resolution at Max, video enhance On, gps on a little, Hotspot on for about an hour, Bluetooth controller/mouse/keyboard on for about an hour. Pretty impressed! I'm going to disable LOTS tomorrow and see how much better I can get. One thing I noticed, I barely had AOD on today, but yesterday had like 8%, hope they can fix that. Nearly 10% of my battery for AOD is CRAZY!

Ha ha I am not paid. I really didn't think it would be this good. And I don't have the screen turned down about 85%. I turned off some apps from running in the background. My Bluetooth stays on all the time because I use it in my car and to get in my house. That was day 2 let's see how day 3 goes. I have never gotten this good of SOT on any phone. 3 to 5 at the best.
