Try turning off the Always Scanning for WiFi option. Also, change the Sync settings for apps you don't need to be synced at all times. And Location setting to Battery Saver.

When im at home i can pull close to 4hrs screen on . If im not on wifi the phone idle is terrible. I probably drain 6% or more per hr idling. Its hard coming from a note 4 , but i guess it is what it is.

Draining at 6% per hour is not good & unusual. But for Android 5.0.2, it seems about right, unfortunately. My N5 drained at that rate before the 5.1 update.
On my S4 with its 2-yr old battery, I drain at 3 to 3.5% per hour on idle with both WiFi & LTE turned off.
On my N5 with a new battery & 5.1, I idle drain at 0.7 to 1.5% per hour.
I'll add my battery drain rate once I get my S6E tomorrow.

This is mine on light usage. I noticed etter after a factory reset. Heavy usage is between 6 and 8 depending on wifi
I'm debating going to get one of these... My Note 2 keeps not charging and the stock battery died in 1:10 (from 50% to 1%) during a run yesterday. I was using spotify and mapmyrun.
Today is my first day after first full charge and my battery drains at ~3.5% hour, per GSAM.
I have screen brightness at little bit below the half-way mark with Auto Brightness checked.
I disconnected my phone at 6 AM and right now, it has been on 16 hrs 30 mins. I have gotten 2 hrs 30 mins SOT with 45% left.
Wifi active for 6 hrs, LTE for about 1 hr.
Screen has used 52% of my battery, Wifi 15% (5.0.2 shortcoming), Bluetooth (2%), Held Awake (0%), Phone (0%), Phone Radio (0%), App Usage (31%).
So far, the S6E is outperforming my Nexus 5 on 5.1 with a brand-new battery I swapped in on 4/1/2015.
Happy with the S6E's battery life, especially considering it's only 2600mah.
a little over 6hrs and it went from 100% to 14%. Granted 56%-23% were on a 1:43 run using Bluetooth headphones + spotify and mapmyrun mapping my way. Oddly, when I look at the battery usage, OneDrive is at 18%!
18 hrs & 37 mins off the charger with 4 hrs 8 mins of SOT. 17% battery left. I'm very happy with this. Update to 5.1 should improve it a lot more as it did on my Nexus 5.
Android System & Kernel battery usage is pretty decent. Those two on my N5 on 5.1 drains way more battery than it does on my S6 Edge.
When I'm not actively using my phone, the idle battery drain rate is pretty good - 1.9%/hour (similar to my N5, with the N5 being a bit better).
13 hrs & 9 mins off the charger with 2 hrs 20 mins SOT --> 52% battery left.
All this is without Root and my usual battery-saving Root programs.
Once 5.1 rolls out and if I decide to Root the phone and add battery-saving Root apps, I'm expecting to achieve 6-7 hrs SOT.

Ive noticed that turning off location and disabling google now has helped my battery life a lot.
I love this phone, but the battery life is the one terrible thing. 7-10 hours seems to be the max. I might have to return it and suffer the summer until the note 5.
i'm surprised to hear about all the negative battery life issues on this phone. on my GS3, i'd lose 3-4% battery just driving to work - now I get there and still have 100%. maybe i'm just not as heavy a user, but the other day my phone was off the charger for 16 hours and I still had 43% when I got home - and that included using Google Maps for 20 minutes, texting throughout the day, and using a bunch of apps. when idle, I generally only get 1% battery drain. my only complaint about the phone is some of the UI that I can't customize, but it's only a matter of time before custom ROMs are available...
I lose 10% or more battery on the phone regardless if I'm using it or it is sitting with the screen off. When I drive the 45 minutes to work, the battery is at 89%-93%.
A 1hr run with it on my arm playing spotify/mapmyrun seems to use about 26%.
Basically, I'm always worried now about the battery dying when I'm using it.
at the end of next month, I have a 14hr+ a day for 4 days music festival where I can only charge it at night. 7-10hr battery isn't going to work for me. It seems bizarre to me that they made the best phone ever, but skimped on the battery.
drive to work today with the phone just sitting beside me, 100% to 86%.

Is your location on? I had to disable google now. Turned off nfc, advanced wifi scanning.
my battery sucks too :/
i live by the charger even more
with all the same activities that got 7-10 hours on my Edge, the Note 4 is getting 14-24hrs.
Battery is beyond horrible!
Wifi is off
NFC is off
What else can I turn off? I can't even get half day out of this POS.

I think you actually want Wi-Fi to be on. I find that on any android device I burn more battery when using cellular networks.

I took a screenshot of the drain. It was at 91% when I set it off and put it down for the night. When I woke up from my sleep around 7 hours later, it was at 86%. With mobile data I've been getting much more drain than that, like around 12%. I thought turning off mobile data would solve it, but something still seems to be draining it. What else could be the problem?
I have the same situation on MM, 1% drop per hour minimum. tried turn off data, set only HDSPA, currently installed wakelock detector and greenify i will keep monitoring.
I dont have any batt drops in LP, almost always 1-2% per night.
I tried flash stock .163 and now .185 for UE1 and for germany (im from poland) so roms are for my region. Clean install, dirty install, LB and UB, now rooted, the same situation.
For me battery life on MM sucks :crying:

MM battery was okay for me for a bit it seemed, but then the battery drain seemed to jump up a bit. On LP I was bit hard by the "mobile radio active" bug, and it's still getting me on LP, even back on my Z3c, ugh, it's really frustrating. Mobile radio still shows up for me a lot in MM too, I don't know, that part seems like a google/google play services problem, but this other battery draining that's happening, I'm not too sure, and looking at battery system stats, or using another app such as gsam battery monitor, I haven't been able to deduce anything, but if you see anything, please update us.

Here is mine ss, if You can help
I unplug charger at 00:19 with 99% battery, in morning aroun 5AM i have 93%
I don't have any screenshots but I've noticed that in the last couple of weeks (running stock MM), my battery is draining much quicker than expected. I use Tasker to control wifi / sync / other stuff but don't have it running like the old Ultra Stamina but my battery will now drain in 12 hours of normal use (not playing games, watching movies). Looking at GSam battery monitor, the phone radio is draining quite a bit and at no point has the phone entered deep sleep.
Annoying as I used to easily get 36 hours between charges.
since i upgraded to Android 6.0 I lose 1% per minute when the screen is on and I go from 100% to 0% in approx. 8 hours, compared to 1 day+ before.
Same for me :c since the update got less than 3 hour SOT , doze does not help me as i have my phone on my hands or pocket most of the time, it never activates
and i saw the 1% bat drain per minute or so while im on chrome ( i just use crhome, nor videos nor games, no facebook apps installed)

Even with doze, it doesn't work that well, cuz my battery still drained turning off network. Although, last night, I turned on airplane mode, and it drained less, only 3%, but I still feel like there's something going on in the background that makes it drain so dang much.
I almost haven't used my phone since full charge and see: Screen usage is very high, as soon as I turn on, it drops by 1% per minute. I haven't changed anything since MM update and before that I could (heavy) use my phone for 1day+.
I bought this phone cause I couldn't use my LG G2 for a full day anymore, and now I can't even use this new one for half day....

I fixed my battery extremely fast draining by uninstalling Facebook Messenger, now I'm back to 1 day and half estimated use. What happened with this app ? It wasn't battery consuming with Lollipop.
Can anyone help me ?
I got Xperia Z5 Dual E6633 a week ago and I have some problems with Battery draining here is the way it`s discharging after I fully charged it.
1-When the device is on Idle mode and im not using it, like over night ( during night to morning ), after ,let`s say 8 hours, the device dropes about 3 percents ( WIFI is OFF, Data network is OFF, Bluetooth is OFF and the Preferred network is set to "GSM Only" )
actually when the battery charge is getting less and less e.g. around 50% the battery draining on Idle mode gets more and more like during 5 hours drops 3 percents or even over night drops 3 to 4 percents.
2-when I play games on Xperia Z5 (e.g. Asphalt 8 Airborne) the device drops 2 percent every 1 minute, Is that normal ???
im running Android 6, Build number 32.1.A.1.185, I had the same problem when i was on 5.1.1
Is there really anything wrong here ?
Thanks.
Hi i had battery problem for every full charged sometimes battery drop normal for 1minute 1% down. But not always, sometimes i can use 30min heavy like messaging,yt videos,and not dropping down any percent. But when i lock phone and stand by for 5minutes,i unlocked phone and see 92% where percent gone? Battery problem? My phone 3 months old. Baterry too.

I think you need to replace your battery since the device is already 3 to 4 years old. Replace it with Sony OEM battery.
I had a similar problem few months back then I replaced it and everything's fine now.

Sony stopped the Z3 production years ago. This is a already old device so the battery its having will certainly be an old one.
Which ROM are you using? stock Sony ROM? Or a custom ROM?
Download this app called AccuBattery. Use it for like 2 to 3 days go know your battery's actual capacity and let me know.
Your battery is either draining because some apps are draining your battery massively or outdated battery. There shouldn't be so much loss like in 5 to 10 mins like how you did.
Check your battery stats from that AccuBattery app and if it's bad you'll have to replace it. :good:
I get 4 to 5 hours of screen on time with 70% brightness.

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 Samsung Galaxy S10e'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!
Not impressive, I lose about 1% every 30 min without using the phone :/ (Exynos)
This is pretty disappointing it looses 10 - 15% of battery overnight doing absolutely nothing.
I am losing about 2%/hour doing absolutely nothing.
My S10e loses almost nothing if I turn things off.
Airplane overnight = less than 1 percent
with AOD it loses a bit, 4-5

Excuse me guys, but its not true that the phone does nothing. It communicates permanently with the antenna signals and the network, so its absolutely normal that it drains battery. Every phone drains battery in standby, even when they are on airplane mode (although in this mode the drainage is much much lower)
If you want yout phone to actually do nothing, you have to turn it off.

Yea... no. My two year old Oneplus 5t, with nearly 100 apps installed, only drops 3 - 6% overnight with 4g on.
My 1 week old galaxy s10e with airplane mode on drops 10% overnight.

I havent said anything about the draing % being too high or not. I said that it is not true that the phone does nothing while being in standby. Which is a fact.
Mine is draining around 12-15% overnight.
Very disappointed with the battery life of s10e
Any tweaks we can do?

I use Bixby Routines to automatically turn airplane mode on during the time I'm asleep and it went from draining 15% to only 5%.
I just updated to the latest update ASCA, battery drain issue seems to be fixed. It drops less than 1% per hour now. (5% over 6 hours)

ASCA? Is your phone with Verizon? How did you update? This battery drain is killing me too. The only positive is that it seems the battery drain is about the same while using the phone.

Mine is the international dual sim Exynos version. I just got an OTA update about 3 days ago. I was also having pretty bad standby battery drain. 15% in 8 hours. Last night it only dropped 4% in 8 hours, which is pretty amazing.

Thanks for the reply. I'm downloading it now. Hope it fixes mine. I know there are always bug when first launched. If things aren't straightened out within 6 months I'm going back to pixel once the 4 comes out.
I don't believe it helped. Still losing a good but while in standby with aod off

When it lost 4% in 8 hours, did you have AOD/wifi/data/bluetooth on?
I'm on the ASCA update, but still have terrible standby drain on my Exynos S10e (3%/h).

AOD: OFF
Wifi: OFF
Data: ON all the time
Bluetooth: sometimes on sometimes off, I don't notice significant drain when it's on.
I literally had significant better battery life from one day to the next without doing anything. However I have had most of the useless apps disabled since day one, (Facebook, Bixby, Samsung stuff, etc.) I also have wifi and bluetooth scanning off. It is ON by default
Edit:
You should also follow some of these settings

New firmware ASD5 is out, maybe this will fix some draining.
I found deep sleep solution.
My s10e exynos (april firmware) was able to sleep only 10% of time.
After fix it can sleep 95+% (CPU Spy)
8 hours = 5% battery.
Open file “system/build.prop”
write “wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=200”
