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 Huawei P30 Pro before depleting the battery.

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

I am getting 9-10hours SOT consistently on the P30 Pro, mine is the 256GB 8GB RAM version, and I have been thoroughly enjoying the camera and battery life.

8 but i have another 20% battery so i can make it 10.

I am definitively not getting that much.

Right now I have 29% battery left with 4,5 h of SOT and 1,5 hours of calls, couple of pictures taken yesterday. BT was on the whole time connected to my watch GT, Wifi on, 4G on.

I just updated yesterday afternoon to version 124. Maybe it improves over time.

What's the best way to drain less battery? Keep WiFi on or Mobile Data on or both at the same time?

With a normal use (from 5:45 to 17:45) with
auto brightness, 2 wearable connected, 4h of music via BT, GPS always on, 1h of voice call... I made 9h of SOT within 48 hours (with a single charge)

I have a problem. The battery menu can not be more than 6h SOT. I do not know where I'm wrong. can he help?

I have the same problem. I think since the update the battery drain is insanely fast.. No rogue apps, just fb, messenger, and mostly of them are put to manual mode.. What is going on, pls help. Also it can barely go through 24h without charging, mostly 5h on screen time max..

Coming from moto z play battery on p30 pro is a sad joke. 6-7h SOT charged on the morning, empty at the evening, with screen dimmed as much as i can, either by app that lowers auto brightness by 50%, or lowering it manualy. I have read reviews that stated great battery life, so either they were misleading or maybe i should turn it to the service. 124 software, but it wasn't any better before the update.

Hmm gsam :/
Battery saver enable on 27%

You have 13h screen on time and 27% left, wtf?

Sounds like a faulty device. You should be getting 8 hours and over for SOT

Good

11 hours SoT. Auto brightness. Pretty goood. :good:

 

[glogu]

But was auto brightness at the minimum value, possible only in darkness?

 

[drcldrcl]

How the hell do you get 11h on screen time with one charge????

 

[glogu]

Either with screen dimmed so it's visible only in total darkness + wifi internet... or in fact some people have outstanding battery and other got horrible.

 

[Log[]]

I always end my day with 50-60% left and 4-5hrs of sot. Auto brightness and mobile data.

 

[Luitechni]

The brightness was average 50%. It has to be mentioned that the battery is hugly affected which apps that are used. As you can see from my post i used reddit and youtube a lot when i got 11 hours SoT.

I have experienced 6-11 hours SoT. So 7 hours is not bad... It all depends on which apps that are used.

 

[drcldrcl]

I have charged it this morning, now It has past 2h and 45 min since the charging, screen on time 52 min and 88% left. It says only 20h are left before the battery runs out.

 

[drcldrcl]

8 but i have another 20% battery so i can make it 10.

Do you have 6gb or 8gb version?
