Battery life - Motorola One Vision Questions & Answers

Hi. I've pre ordered the moto one vision yesterday, basicly out of curiosity about a moto running on Samsung Exynos 9609 soc.
I have a motorola one already which is built on Qualcomm msm8953 and battery is great on that device.
How's the battery holding up on Moto One Vision, concidering it only has a 3500 mAh battery and a 6"+ screen, 48MP cam etc?
I kind of feel like the battery is a bit undersized for this device, but I may be wrong.
Please comment about your battery experience below, or fill in with questions about battery.

Fully charged yesterday, today still i have 81%

After the first charging: 5,5h SOT and still about 22% was avalible. Not bad.

i bought it last Friday, charged twice since then, i have an impression of battery drain, but i think it's because i just use it more often, just like every phone while it's new

Thanks everyone for your replies. Maybe it's not as bad as I thought after all.
Please continue with replies and / or questions about battery.

I read somewhere that Motorola One has great battery back-up!
today, here confirmed !

For me, 1,5 days

As it's said... a picture worth a thousand words...
Here's what AccuBattery says about my One Vision.
I use it mainly to Instagram and some youtube (light usage on that one). Whatsapp and Google Maps.
(#1 - @81% it would last: 19h and half combined use, 7h with screen on, 24h on standby)

Battery Life Opinion
I just bought Motorola One Vision, but I´m concerned about battery life (while waiting for the cell phone to be delivered for me). I saw some reviews tellign that battery life is poor , and some telling that battery life is OK (1 day - 20 hours - normal use). Can anyone tell me if for a normal user like me that don´t play games in the cell phone, just use social networks, and a little of youtube the battery lasts at least from 6 AM to 11 PM? (my normal daily use)? I´m in doubt since there are people telling the battery life is good (one day and a half) and some people are telling that battery lasts only 6 to 10 hours. Which one is true? If someone have a trusted review, please share.
Thanks!

I've had the One Vision for 3 weeks now and have no problems with battery life.
I get around 6-7 hours of SOT.
I 'm what you would call a normal user like yourself.

Battery seems drain fast took of charger 100% 6:45am took couple photos in garden checked FB/ Twitter emails 7:10am 93% , this could boil down to fact it's had one full charge over night since getting and may settle etc in few days this is with latest update with June security , hope future updates can improve battery and camera

Just got a Vision One, after sporting a G5s + for the past 3years.
Wheras i could still get 2days of use out of my G5s+ , i have the impression the Vision just drains really fast. Maybe i'm just using it more because it's new ? I don't really have that impression though.

Just like you - sort've...
I'm considering getting either the 'Moto G7 plus' or 'Moto One vision' .
At first I thought I was going down the 'Vision' route due to 'better specs' - until I started reading about 'poor battery drain' despite having a 3500mAh battery
My current phone 'only' has a 3000Mah with 5.2" screen that with my [very] light usage it'll last the day with still ~35-50% battery left over (depending if I get bored @ work & play a game or 2)
I mainly only have phone for emergency, some occasional game playing (subway surfer etc - no 3d intensive gaming) & music listening (not into watching videos on a phone or social media usually) - so 'screen on' time is usually pretty low - & would also like to hear 'real life' reviews of how long the battery does last

I've it for one month and for me the battery usage is ok. I go to work at 7 am, and I put it on charge at 10 pm with 40~30% of battery which for my use is ok. I noticed that if I play a game for 40 min or play a video for around 30~40 minutes the battery is at 10% at 10 pm. So my verdict is that for a user that don't play games/watch videos a lot, the battery can stand a day and ends up with 40%, but if you like to play then maybe you should consider another option.. My guess is that the battery drain is due to the screen... The good points are the screen is very good and Android is very fast and good (I had a Samsung A50 before).

Yeah sort of guessed the screen may play a big part in battery drain... Larger Screen needs more power to display,
Those that check their Twitbook accounts ever few minutes may be the ones that complain about fast battery drain the most, although I have seen some personnal reviews about battery loss overnight when left alone
Some have said that it's 99% when they go to bed but when they wake up it's down to ~80% (I assume it's like 10pm to 7am), which surely can't be because of the screen .. I assume this is because of overnight syncing issues from social apps running in background etc.
Since (I'm led to believe) the vision is 'pure android' - no bloat (apart from a couple of additional moto apps - I think) I guess as long as I disable all auto sync apps & not have too many app installed running in background (I mainly only have Sophos Security [Antivirus etc] & Tasker [For 'While in zone change volumes etc]) I should get less drain overnight.... In theory

It's a mostly pure android experience. I'm not a heavy social media user. Here are some screen shots. I unhook at 545am and I'm on 20% at 10pmView attachment 4803617

For me it's ok drive regardless of the battery % at night I always charge it overnight, so it's fine for my use.

Hi, my moto on vision after two weeks...
https://imgur.com/gallery/vPlsqyI
50hs total and 4hs 37min sot

My phone has SOT (at 63% birghtness) around 5-6 hours and with normal usage it lasts about two days.
But I'd recommend having a charger nearby. After 40-ish hours I still had 25-30% battery.

Yeah Im having a same experience as you ,5 to 6 hours of SOT is typically what I get when using wifi,lop off an hour when using LTE though.

[Q] Real World Battery Life

Fellow MT4GS users,
How is your battery lasting you? I'm coming from a MT4G, even though I eventually modded it, and it I used to get at least a full day and have to charge that night at the worst unless I really heavily used it.
My MT4GS has been lasting me half a day or so before I get into the yellow/red and I'm usually charging before the sun goes down.
My main culprit according to the built in battery indicator is display at 65% (I'm on automatic brightness)
Just over 10 hours today for me before I had to charge.
ps- Anyone know how to remove the annoying low power notifications? I'm getting two pop ups in a row.
Yeah mine generally lasts about 14 hours at moderate usage, but it's only been 2 days, and I remember when I got the MyTouch 4G it died on me while I was still at work and then after a week or so it got much better...
Yeah, I can agree with you there I think my MT4G was a little wonky the first week or so. We'll see how it goes.

Only lasting 6 hours yesterday ....
My battery lasted about 33 hours. After the 1st full charge. So way better than my other phones have done. This wasnt heavy usage though. No videos or music just a few calls, lots of emails and some web browsing.
One problem I am having is low call volume. My videos and music are perfectly loud, just the call volume sucks.

Well make sure, your phones screen brightness is on low. Also make sure wifi,gps,bluetooth are off. Also make sure you kill some of the apps you ran on a task manager. just gotta find ways to keep the battery life up.
Well when I first got the phone, I didnt charge it until it was almost dead. Then fully charged it.
Also I turned off GPS, WiFi ect. I also use task manager to kill background programs that I don't need or want running.
We will see if the battery life goes down after a few weeks. Sometimes they take time to normalize.
Oh what task you ended and what task manger you used?

I appreciate the help but the logic is off. This is the latest ..and i stress smartttphone. It is supsupposed to be used as such. Bluetooth ..4g..music...video calling..maps..etc.. if u use of of these features six hours it will last. If you use them all try maybe 4 hours. Plus those boxes are annoying when the batterly is low. This phone has got to be rooted.

I'm gonna have to agree with that one, that's pretty much no different than saying buy a car but don't drive it so you can save gas lol
I have gotten to around 12 hours or more now. Still moderate overall but heavier browser usage.
I do not kill tasks or turn off wifi, gps or anything. My brightness is auto.
I uninstalled the recent maps update because I saw where G2 users seem to think the recent update is draining their battery so I wondered if it could maybe be causing issues here too.
Anyways my battery life has gotten into the acceptable range and that was all I really did other than have more days to monitor it.
Some technical specs on the battery:
Model: BG58100
Rating: 3.7V DC
Charge Capacity: 1520mAh

This appears to be the same battery that is in the Sensation 4G according to Google.
For us this is good because Ebay and Amazon are already flooded with replacement batteries.
We need to find a higher capacity mAh battery but with the same size as to not make us have to get a replacement back. This shouldn't be that hard.
My old phone has a smaller battery with a higher mAh capacity so the battery in the myTouch 4G Slide is an utter disappointment. They could have easily produced a 3000 mAh battery for this beast of a phone.
Edit: Found a 1900 mAh battery for only 9.99.

Screen is on the least bright setting. I'm an ex blackberry user and dont even have one app. I could care less about apps. I'm charging every 5 hours and thats sometimes from just it sitting around/ not even using the phone. The thing better get it's act together. I'm starting to like the keyboard too but I'm up at 5am and if im charging at noon that's terrible. Especially with minimal use.

There must be something wrong. Mine lasts about that long playing videos and games, messing with the camera, web browsing etc..

As I posted in my other thread, battery sucks on this phone. I had to keep wifi off all the day to keep it from dying by 6pm. Funny how 4g speed is so bad in nyc that wifi is the only other option to do something meaningful.

Weird I live in small city and 4G is crazy fast. When I get to a big city like Baltimore, Maryland the 4G was slow. My thoughts are there too many people on the 4G network. T-Mobile did promised us double the 4G speed and they need more Towers too.

For the first couple days, my battery life was awful. I'd be getting low-bat notifications when I got home from an 8-hour day at work.
But of course that's always the case with new phones that haven't even had the settings tweaked...
- Placed a Wifi toggle widget on the homepage and turn it off every day after leaving home for work in the morning.
- Ensured certain programs and updates were not running in the background automatically:
~ Turned off Autosync on accounts (manual only)
~ Turned off autoupdates for weather
~ No Bluetooth, GPS, Wifi, unless turned on for a specific reason
~ Enabled power efficiency and power saver modes (30%)
~ Disabled Always-on data connection
~ Disabled auto-updates in various apps (Friendcaster, IM+ Pro, etc.)
- Turned the screen off when not in use
Today I'm at 40% after 14 hours of mixed use. I'd say that's DAMN good.
By the way, for those seeing the whole "Autosync off" thing and thinking that you can't do it, just do it. I don't get my work email or personal email on my phone unless I tell it to and it's utterly awesome. Less stress. Less looking at my phone constantly. It feels free and just plain great. And I used to be superconnected 24/7 syncing every 5 minutes (if push wasn't available).

How is the battery life?

i want to know if Z3 has good battery life..
in gsmarena i saw 101h < z3c, but i don't see Z3

Its insane lol Iam coming from a htc one and this easily lasts double what i got from the htc! Now i have adjusted my settings to help with battery life, I always do when i get a new phone. I turn alot of stuff off that aint being used and only turn them on if need be! None the less this is by far the best battery life i have ever experienced from a phone! It also drains consistently where as with the htc it used to drop from 100 - around 96 within a few minutes and then when it got to 30 it seemed to suddenly start draining faster! I took this off charge at 100 and left in standby for over 4 or 5 hours and it was still at 100%
I had great battery life when I first got mine. Since I updated the software, it's tanked.
I have repaired and factory reset it and i've optimised everything with battery savings, but went from 8 hours SOT and two day battery to around 6 screen on and at about 20% when I go to bed after one day.
HTC One M8 gave me around 6 hours screen on time, and lasted a day and a half.
Hoping this sorts itself out, as the screen temperature issue, speaker notification volume, and now battery life, is not enough to of justified my jumping ship :/ (Even though I really wanted it because it's waterproof) lol.
All that said, the battery life even now is excellent still.
It's not that good as some people say but still ok. I would say that maybe 20-30% better than htc one m8. This means that you can easily go through the work day but if you would be go out after the work day (partying) you would be a bit worried if the battery lasts.

I have hight demand about battery life but I'm also happy with Z3 dual. I wish it can be charge ( much ) faster by microUSB port, best could be about 2 hours.
I am actually disappointed by the battery. It's down to 80% after just an hour and a half with medium usage. How is it going to last 2 days like that? Don't know if my phone is a faulty device or I am doing something wrong. It's charging now, I will put up some screenshots if it's still bad. Everything else is perfect so the battery being bad (which should be the best thing with this phone) is making me sad :/

Sadly no. I'm only on WIFI and the brightness is on half and auto. I haven't gone a full day with this phone yet so I will let the battery go down to zero and take a screenshot before that to see if the results are really that bad or just like everyone else

What are you doing with it

First charge and use,
Been unplugged for about 9.5 hours. A lot of whatsapp usage today. Battery life currently sitting at 65%. About half LTE and half WiFi.
This is a lot better than my Samsung S4, but not sure how it compares to other users.
I'm actually curious if anyone has compared the z2 and z3 battery performance in real world usage with the same usage pattern? Which has the longer sceen on time and standby time etc.

Nothing special
Could anyone tell me if this looks right? Is it good or bad? I didn't charge it overnight so ~10 hours are included in which I didn't use the phone.
Here's my battery usage the first day after I got it (charged up to full overnight before starting to use):
http://imgur.com/a/RyftP?gallery
Summary: 13.5 hours on battery, leaving me with 6%, with 8h43m+ screen on time and 3+ hours of music. Coming from a Nexus 4, I'm very very happy.
coming from LG G i'm very happy.
I'm struggling to get 4 hours of screen time before it dies after less than a day. No apps at all hogging the battery or anything like that.
Standby battery seems to be awful, even with stamina mode on blocking everything other than facebook messenger and gmail. It's losing 1% an hour, which doesn't sound bad, but my Galaxy Note 3 was draining 1% every three hours on both stock rom and Cyanogen 11. Moto G 2014 similarly does around 1% every 2-3 hours.
Standby for the most part should be represented by an almost perfectly straight line in battery stats, but on the Z3 its a constant curve downwards, much like the standby battery bug in the OnePlus One.
I'm in a full 4 bar LTE area as well, so it's not poor signal doing the damage.
The strangest of all, is the first day I had the phone it managed to get me through 2 full days easily. That included 8 hours of music streaming over bluetooth each day, and 4 hours screen time. Yesterday I was just over 3 hours screen time after 17 hours, and it was on 6% battery, including the 8 hours or so music streaming. That is exceptionally poor compared to both the Note 3 and Moto G.
But who knows, maybe disabling all the bloatware is causing issues. Either way I'll have a replacement device from amazon tomorrow which hopefully wont have the screen issues or bluetooth/wifi dropouts (thoguh I suspect that is software related).

go into your battery settings and make a screen shot
I had z2 so will offer comparison on battery. It does last longer than z2 by approx 20-30%, on my usual usage with z2 I was at approx 15% remaining by end of the day, with the z3 I'm at about 35%ish.
Heavy use and relatively bright screen.

HTC One A9 Battery life and SOT

Post here your findings with the A9 in daily use; or discuss methods to improve battery life (settings, etc)
How much screen-on time do you get? How long does your battery last through the day, with what type of usage?
Mention also your ROM version pls.
If possible, post screenshot from GSAM or similar app.
inspired by similar thread for the M9 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/battery-sot-t3067585
ps: I am in the process of chosing a new phone, which could very well be an M9 or A9.
I'm generally a fairly heavy user and I've been very pleased so far with battery life. This phone and OS have so far been much better at preserving battery when asleep and it charges much faster even from standard chargers.
Well I am more then pleased, and if you use the phone as a game console only and watch videos, then it uses more power, but it is a phone right?
Thanks for replies. If possible, please post numbers (screenshots appreciated).
E.g. how much screen on time in a day, how much % left when going to bed without recharging all day.
+ add ROM version, whether 2gb or 3gb RAM...
you know, the essentials to make comments comparable.
Personally I am still on a 2.5y old One X+ that I want to replace. I don't game but need about 4h SOT (browsing, social apps, ...) without recharging. Today, I need to recharge every day during the day, and I want to put that behind me. In gsmarena battery test, the One A9 scored barely better than the X+, and worse than M9. That has me worried.
/ Updated to add: I also need all day mobile internet on 3g/4g, and 1 hour streaming radio (tunein radio app) with screen off). Maybe in future all day bluetooth for a connected watch? /
Cheers

Thx. I updated my requirements though. I'd been too brief
besides, this thread is meant to collect data from many users, to provide usage examples to all potential buyers
From my experience my a9 battery usage is impressive when the screen is off, but when the screen is on it's worse than hTc one M8
in the M8 the SOT I got is between 5 to 7 hours, and in my new a9 the SOT is 4 to 5 hours per full cycle!
this 4 hours screen I used them in 1 day and half, with all time wifi and sometimes 4G Data when I go out.
I will post Gsam battery stats in the next couple days.
Marshmallow's doze mode works as advertised, with seemingly infinite standby times. But there's only about four hours of SOT in the tiny battery, maybe almost five if you're miserly.

That's about like my M9, which is what I expected with the A9. M8 was way better on battery than the M9.

810 is a battery hog. All that heat is wasted power.
But there's no excuse on the A9. Anybody could tell you a 2150mah battery isn't gonna last long. Would it really have been that big a deal to make the phone 2mm thicker and put a 2500 in it?

Yeah, I agree. Personally, I would rather a phone the same size and the M9, with a 2840 battery, but with the 617 proc. But I'm probably not exactly who HTC was targeting with this device, either.
I was just saying that I think HTC decided that if the A9 battery performance matched the M9 then that was good enough. Once I faced fact that the M8 performance was a thing of the past, the M9 has actually been decent for me, using a custom Rom and flar's ElementalX kernel.

Day 1:
I unplugged my A9 at 7am.
3 minutes of scrolling through facebook. Then drive to work.
7pm the phone vibrates and tells me I have 15% battery life.
I made 4 phone calls all less then 5 minutes. Turned the screen on maybe 10 times to do a time check. And spent a good 15 minutes on break scrolling facebook.
12 hours of almost non use...
Then the fast power dump came.
My 20 minute drive home it went from 14% to 2%.
This is crazy.... I may have to return this thing and get my M8 back.

That battery will definitely be sufficient for the "average user" (by average I mean 9 to 5 day job with 1 hr lunch break and a 1 hr commute from home to work) that listens to music or watches movies on their way to work, uses their phone on their 30 minute or hour break, and watches movies/listens to music on their way home. Your battery stats are pretty good for 24 hours. The "average person" is out the house for about 12-14 hours a day and have time to plug unto the wall for atleast 15 minutes. If you can charge your phone for just 15-20 minutes while you eat on break (like most smartphone owners probably do already) with quick charge 2.0 (and soon to be 3.0) you'll have more than enough battery to last the day, and some, until you get home to charge for the night.
People who are complaining about the battery life must use android wear devices, wireless headsets, and keep your bluetooth on all day , and/or, are business men who are always traveling and don't have time to charge your phone, outside of those reasons I don't see why someone would need an incredibly large battery. I think that the fact that Android devices have been known for poor battery life for a very long time and people are expecting android 6.0 to be just as "battery hogging" which is why they think the 2150 battery is too small. Efficiency plays a huge factor that people are just ignorant to because they haven't used a marshmallow device or an iphone to understand it. Small batteries CAN last the day with the right operating system. Apple puts small batteries in their devices to maximize profit, but what if they put a 3200 mAh battery in an iphone 6s. the battery would probably last 2 full days with average usage. Point being the efficiency of android M seems to work wonders here. I'm wondering how much longer the Galaxy s6 battery will last after it receives the M update.
And to those who claim they don't have enough time to charge their phone or "find it annoying" to have to charge through out the day, you sound ridiculous. There are car chargers for people who drive, somewhat large (and affordable) portable chargers for people who commute via public transportation. Quick quick charging 2.0 & 3.0 . all you need to do is charge for 15 minutes, if needed, throughout the day and then you should be fine.
All in all, the average user should be fine with this phone. For you people that want a 4K display phone with a snapdragon 850 with a clock speed of 3.5GHz, along with 1 week battery life and 56 hours of screen on time for under $450, need to just pack it up. It's 2015 not 2051. Every phone will have its pros and cons. That's reality. If this phone isn't for you, then it isn't for you. Simple.

If this even is true, then you have a bad unit, I use mine like u describe and I got atleast 70% left when I come home from work.
At first I thought battery life sucked, but turned out to be a couple of bad apps (Sony life log and smartband). I ditched them and now getting similar life to my M8.
Last night I fully charged it then unplugged it to see how much charge it lost over night, so over 7.5 hours it lost just 2%. , which compared to the m8 (lost 9%) I'm pretty impressed.
Charge rate seems better too but could that be because it's such a small battery?

I checked the battery use last night. Facebook. ( Which surprisingly didn't come loaded) used 46% of my battery Yesterday ( Per Battery Use stats. ).
There is a good chance it is hogging. ???
As it stands now. I had the same morning and now I'm at 82%. It's been off the charger for 2.5 hours and I've only responded to a facebook message.
I have already turned off unnecessary settings to include enhanced 4G LTE calling .
Hopefully I'll see how it goes.
My screen is on minimum and it has already dropped from 82% to 80% in the time it took to write this.
This kind of feels like the Old days when the HTC EVO came out.
That is NO news about fb app. Never used it never will.
After a couple of days of usage, the phone is doing about ok for me. Screen on time is just as bad as phone idle time is good. Put them together and they are lasting my average work day.
Had plugged it out yesterday at 7 in the morning and when I returned at 5, it was 33% which is acceptable , given that it had been on Wifi and 4G through the day.
I just left it unplugged from the charger last night and the Doze feature really shines through. Screen shot attached.
Is it worth upgrading from m8 to a9?
Im thinking of getting the new a9 but dont know wrther to get an m9 instead. I am currently using an m8 but want to upgrade. Should i get an m9 or a9? Im sticking to htc phones as i like the desighn.

Light use endurance

Once in a while, when your significant other yells at you, you might use your phone a bit less. Rate this thread to express how the Google Pixel 2 XL's battery performs under light use. A higher rating indicates that the device goes a long time when you're using the phone sparingly: no gaming or video/audio streaming, light web browsing, some calling and texts, etc.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Out and about (LTE/cell service only) - 13%/hour
At home on Wifi - 6-7%/hour
21h with 4h screen on, 40% left
With what I would consider light usage (email, web browsing, messaging, lots of YouTube) I have really been impressed with the battery life! Over 8hrs screen on time with my first few cycles so far. Based on this, I'm guessing that even with heavier usage (games, etc.) that I would still be pretty happy with the longevity. With very similar usage I was getting around 4-5hrs SOT on my original Pixel XL and was happy with it. Interested to hear how the battery has been for others as well.
I've been very happy. Last night I forgot to charge so I woke up with 48% battery. I plugged in for 25 minutes while getting ready for work. Left the house with 87%. Now, 9 hours later, I have had 2 hours screen on time of mixed wifi/LTE, browsing, email, Facebook, texting, a few pictures and a little YouTube. 20% brightness. Location set to high accuracy, Now Playing turned on, AOD off, Google account sync on. I am at 65%. That's a drain of 22%. Under the same conditions and usage my Nexus 5X would have drained over 40%.
This is the first smartphone I've had (I've had a Nexus One, Galaxy SII, Nexus 5, Nexus 5X and now Pixel 2 XL) that I can say that the battery life is GREAT.

This phone is ridiculous. I haven't charged it since Monday...
I won't pretend I'm a "heavy usage" person with my phone. But I've never been able to get 2 full days of usage from any of my previous phones. Most of them barely lasted 24 hours. This one is going to reach 48+ hours, easy.
I work from home full time so I'm connected to my home wifi almost all the time, which helps. I get out of the house a total of 2-3 hours a day to walk the dog, go to the gym, or meet clients for lunch. So during that time it's on full LTE with no wifi. I tend to use the phone for 2-3 client calls per day (30-60 minutes each while paired with my bluetooth headphones), listening to music at the gym (~60 minutes while paired with my bluetooth headphones), some light usage of social networking apps and Youtube videos throughout the day.
I know battery life consists of a large amount of factors but it's safe to say that with the same usage, this phone outlasts all my previous phones by at least 1.5x. It's fantastic.
Battery life sucks now compared to pre-February security patch.
Light endurance usage: 15% brightness w/auto brightness off just browsing, Facebook and a little texting on wifi. That's no games, Bluetooth off, Location on high accuracy but not doing much (ie no Maps navigation), no video, no music, no camera, no phone calls etc.
Pre February security update:
Screen on: ~10%/hr
Stand by: ~0.3333%/hr
Best battery life: 9 hours SOT over 1 day, 16 hours off the charger
Now (after February and March security updates):
Screen on: ~15%/hr
Stand by: ~0.5%/hr
Best battery life: 6 hours SOT over 1 day off the charger
Stand by battery drain up like 60% and SOT battery drain up like 50%. Very disappointing for a phone that is only 5 months old. If I break it down to a per mAh it's now no better than my Nexus 5X.
After first charge I am getting 2%/h standby drain, hope things will improve
SOT and idle drain still holding strong for my usage patterns. April update + root + Flash kernel. Not a social media user, and don't use many power/ram intensive apps :good:

No one listens to music offline only anymore ?
What is the battery consumption e.g. with PowerAMP (or similar players) and listening to music for several hours like in battery % ?
Thanks
Not me. I stream my music and play over Bluetooth. But for reference, the Nexus 6P was rated at 100 hours. So I doubt the Pixel 2 XL would be any worse.

I listen to music offline. For the first several months of having the phone I could play over Bluetooth and I'd use about 7% per hour. Playing over a wired connection used 4% per hour. Now it's like 8% per hour over a wired connection and 12% per hour over Bluetooth. Damn monthly updates.

Compared to what it was for the 1st 3 months, yeah, that's bad. Maybe he never experienced how good battery life was before several of the updates so he doesn't really have a basis for comparison. Like I said, with the same time off the charger and screen on time I have about the same 20% battery left as well but for the first few months that same off the charger and screen on time left me with about 50% left. Draining almost 30% battery for the same use just a few months later is a big deal. Oh, and that's after trying a factory reset which at first (about a half a day) seemed like it helped but quickly showed that it didn't help at all.
What you were getting for the first three months was remarkable for sure but wasn't what everyone gets. Like a lot of things battery life has a bell curve and you were just on the extreme right of it. Now you're "only" getting what the majority, middle part of the bell is getting and unhappy with it. Still doesn't mean it's bad. Now it's just average.

Question Battery life since the last update

All was so good,
I was able to hold 2 days with my use (it was incredible, with my s10 I held 24h).
And, then, last update...
And now, in one night of sleep 25-30% of drain ??? Oo
What is that Samsung ? Are you aware like u destroy ur product with this... especially when you advertise about the terrific battery life of the s10 plus ?

I had my S10+ that ever had bad battery life, my s21+ looks like is much better, having 25% of drain in standby means there is an app that is causing that, when you talk about your last update, you should explain which version of firmware do you have now.
My T-Mo USA S21+ gets really great battery life. No change with the latest (AUAG) USA firmware. My S10 got very good battery life (24 Hrs +) but the S21+ (so far) gives me 2 days with MANY hours of screen on time.
Here's a partial dump of a discharge to 10%:
I'm using the exynos variant. I bought the phone on 13th Feb. The battery life is really realty bad for a 4800mah device. I was getting a expecting a decent battery life. But I'm getting like 4.5hrs SOT for 10.5 hours usage which is like half of what snapdragon verison is giving. This sucks. Should have waited for op9pro. Made a huge mistake.!!

Did you use it 60hz refresh rate ? This is insane battery life . I'm getting nowhere near this !!

No, that is with Adaptive Motion Smoothness (120Hz) turned on.
I thought maybe my AOD was adding too much Screen On time, giving me a very misleading value, so in one of the tests I made i just played a few movies, and I still got hours and hours of battery life. I have no idea why there is such a variance.
Edit: So I thought of two things to mention. I run my screen brightness at about 35%. If you run yours much higher, that could effect your results significantly. If you use your phone outside a lot and it's set to automaticly adjust its brightness, that could set the screen brighness very high (for when you're outside). Also, I have bluetooth turned off.
2nd Edit: I ran another test last night and I'm surprised to report that there was no significant difference at full screen brightness versus my normal 35% brightness. I had Netflix playing for 3 hours at normal brightness followed by 3 hours at full brightness and the slope of the battery level curve is essentially the same. I'm at a lost to explain this as well as it's been my experience that screen brightness significantly affects power usage.
fwiw
My battery life seems okay but charging is very slow. I've never had so much trouble getting up to a full charge

I did some tests the other night and much to my surprise turning up the screen from my usual 35% to full didn't make much of a difference.
I'm in the habit of using the "Close all" function in the recent apps screen almost all the time. Maybe that makes a difference?
I'm trying all the scenarios to reach that level of battery life but I go out for atleast 3 hrs a day. So I use my phone in mobile data as well. That also contribute. Yeah closing all applications all the time prevent unnecessary background process. That may actually help in apps like Twitter and Instagram.
Here is the latest I have managed . I removed one of the sim and used carefully . This is the best I have managed so far. But again, I use it outdoors with mobile internet for atleast an hour of screen time. 3 hours of outdoor usage . I'm still not sure if it's a good battery life but I will take it.
As a new S21+ owner I can say that I have had great battery life so far consistently getting 7.5-8 sot. This is with the latest march update.

Hi. Looking at your screenshot, it seems you are using an Indian variant. I do not want to get into specifics, but Indian networks are far more congested compared to other countries. So the modem has to work 4 times as hard compared to say the US. Also, dual sims nearly halve the standby time. So the usage you have is fine and I wouldnt worry too much about it.
Have anyone tried disable auto optimize app daily and disable adaptive battery.
Some say it really improve the battery on the previous samsung gen. I'm going to try it. And report to all of you guys.
Just came up to xda to search about anything related to battery and didn't find the solution yet.
Sometime I got a good battery like about 6 hours sot. The other day it just to bad only around 4 hours. It seems auto optimize overreacting to apps and make it closed and open daily causing a worst battery live. And the adaptive battery just seems not good at all in some report.
My best so far today, 10h of SoT doing mostly multimedia stuff. Exynos, 4G, 60Hz, April update. No power saving mode.
