My SOT dropped from roughly 6h to 3,5-4h lately, I don't know why I don't use my phone for gaming, even uninstalled all social media lately to focus on my bachelor's thesis. It's basically WhatsApp, YouTube (just 15min a day) and chrome that I use. So strange.

same here, after i did battery calibration my battery is drained faster with 4-5 hrs sot now, with 3-4 hrs only with full online gaming, but prior to that, im having great battery life with minimum 6hrs sot up to 9 hrs sot max! why did i listened to those youtubers! crap!

Same happened to me in last 2-3 days, it was working fine until this happened. It could easily hold up to 5-6 SOT but now even 4 is questionable. And for the record I dont use 3g/4g mobile data, i dont text all the time, standby now drains up to 8-10 percent. I dont play games and i dont use full brightness.... Hope they could fix this with an update.

i am on 137 also (c432) and I have various readings from my battery life. Althrough I use phone almost the same every day (calls,messages,viber,instagram,whatsapp,messenger,mail,camera) once i get perfect sot and once very poor sot. Some examples are below on photos. Is that normal, how is your battery and sot?

i almost always get about 7-8 hrs on 137. i get less if i have lots of screen off time and dont use phone trough the day. guess that is normal. sceeen off could be better, but if i press play on youtube and get back 8 hrs later it would still be on

I never got even close to 7 hours of SOT, maximum of my device is 6 and a half :crying: ... Hope next update can fix it, if i see next update (i change phones a lot like socks):eek:

Hello,
I've a mate 10 on .132 while playing (game MOBA) arena of valor I'm losing about 24% per hour (it's a lot !!)
But when I let the phone idle mode I'm losing not much.
Also I've installed AccuBattery (4 charges) and it said my battery size is 3570 mAh instead of about 4000 mAh.

Can anyone install the app and use it for 1 week to see what the battery size ?
My old phone, the battery seems good, my sister phone also but why with this phone I only have 3570 mAh ?

Don't trust accubattery, look at the history tab. Calculate what they show you charged and used. It never adds up. The phone uses different voltages for different charging States so there is no one exact mAh count since it means different things on different voltages. (500 mAh on 12V is double compared to 500 mAh on 6V)

For me it often says things like:
Charged 75-90% (1050 mAh)
Used 90-75% (760 mAh)

My battery usually is around 3750 mAh but this app is very vague. At the beginning it showed over 5000mah due to me only supercharging in low percentages like 5-65% where it's super fast. So if you always charge slow (upper percentage or while gaming) it will show you less.

Hence, I don't think that 24% an hour is bad. It's an online 3d game with a lot of things happening. 24%/h means 4h sot while hardcore gaming. Other phones only reach that with normal use

Mali chipset(3D) is biggest consumer and heating dispenser. When I play 2D game it doesn't warm up at all and consumption is barely bigger than usual.

I've a LeMax2 and with it i'm doing 25%/hour 3000mah (snapdragon 820) (on accubattery i have 2700 left)
My sister avec a LePro 3 (4000mah battery and snapdragon 820 also) she is doing 1h45 for 25% (on accuBattery 4000 left is a new phone)
she also have a Redmi Note 4 also with 4000 mah and she can play 5h without stop

When i bought Mate 10 i though to have a good battery life while playing. It's better then my old phone also because my phone has a battery with 1.5 years

Otherwise not in game the phone has a good battery life

Yeah on my 3D game, the phone get hot, my friend playing with a O5T said his phone is not hot
