When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Xiaomi Mi Note 10's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.

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

Check the CPU frequency. Sometimes it gets stuck over 1248mhz at idle. You have to reboot the phone to get it back down to 576mhz.

There's an app in playstore called "CPU Stats". That app puts a CPU meter in the status bar. Handy for letting you know when to restart

Not sure if thats me but i think ive noticed a drain by GSM, same issue that was on my mi 9 with global rom. try to go to service mode from dialer *#*#4636#*#* and set connection type to LTE/WCDMA seems like its helping at least a little

This became a common Miui issue these days. Had this problem with my Mi9T also, and couldn't resolve it in any way, maybe only by flashing custom rom, but this is not a solution.
Usually it was "cell standby" or "whatsapp" that was draining the battery...and I tried everything, debloating, battery optimizations, network mode changes etc.

I have the same problem. Yesterday I used the Mi note 10 intensely. I did 7h of screen and he was still 40% when I went to sleep. Today when I woke up he was 24%. It drained 16% without any use. I have to find out what is draining so much in Stand By.

If you are in Europe, just apply the 11.0.16 Ota, if you are coming from 11.0.13 global stable. It fixes the battery drain. Download and install via the updater app.
Download from here: mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/tucana/
I was becoming very depressed about this, just got my phone 2 days ago, and the battery was very poor... Hope it helps!

My drain was pretty minimal before updating to the newest EU Rom, but now it's much worse.
So not the same experience for everyone I guess.

I guess not... Not really sure what's happening. Waiting to 1 more day to unlock my bootloader in order to install globe ROM (android 10). It should improve battery drain and camera app... Let's see...

Can't really risk that with SafetyNet being seemingly impossible to bypass in the future.

Wakelocks has been a constant issue for me on MIUI for years with bad standby as a result. This phone is no exception. It was bad on EEA Global ROM. It's bad on Android 10. I love Xiaomi but for the love of god it always has drain issues in standby. 1% per hour is not OK on a phone like this.

Well for now, but the tools are in place to completely break it, they just have to flip the switch. Which will happen sooner or later I'm sure of that and not passing Safety Net until some finds another exploit (which can be months) isn't really an option for me.
Yes you're absolutely right,I wasn't aware of this,there is still a bypass but not for long...

I confirm this, the cpu usage was stick around 60% at 1.2ghz, without doing nothing. The reboot fix this, but what cause this problem? This phone 2 days ago get an hard reset.

I'm not sure what's causes it. It's either a kernel issue or a system app within MIUI 11
It still happens with the latest 11.0.9 update

Hi, any heating issue with drain, during videocall or web browsing with this Mi Note 10 (Miui Global Stable 11.0.17)? I'm from EU. Thank you!
