Installed Play services 5 when it came out and that help substantially. Now I have Google Services eating 91% of my battery. Seems to get worse the lower my battery goes the faster it goes.
CPU Total 5h 1 min
Keep awake 4h 44m
Roughly 150KB of data used.
Battery at 67%. Abnormally little use today. My best so far has been 15h up time at 70% battery.
Includes:
Google contacts sync
Services Framework
Backup Transport
Account Manager
Play Services
Unchecked everything in the google account sync options. Shall see if it helps.
Any suggestions on this?
Turn off your location settings.
Sucks if you use your GPS or google now a lot, but it seems to be the only way to keep your battery at an acceptable level.

Never use my location for more than checking the weather. Ill give it a go.
Im seriously considering buying this device as it is quite good priced now and it ticks all my needs.
But I dont know what to think of batterlife in day to day usage. Some say its perfectly fine, some say not....
I considered X too, which is good enough on battery for me, with Nougat updated.
How is X Performance after Nougat update?
Any better?
Please share some insights.
Like: percentage used after 1hr videoplay, and after 1hr browsing, and 1hr playing.
Im coming from Z1c with kitkat, which battery performance im quite satisfied ( 6-8hr SoT) and Im affraid to make a wrong choice going for X Performance instead of X, concerning batterylife.
My usage routine is Stamina on, background data off, and no battery drainig social or other apps.
Would like some help in deciding....
This info would be nice to have, as I'm in the same boat as you. I've heard good things about Z5 battery life with Nougat, though...
I get about the same as on my z3

That would be superb.
Is your rooted or not?
And please some more info, your usage pattern, aproximate Screen on Time?
I get a little less usage out of this device per charge than I did from my Z3. With my Z3, I was getting 2 days easily. With the X Performance, I can get anywhere from 1.5 to 2 days depending on whether or not Google Play Services decides to keep my device awake. I use my phone very liberally throughout the day: light browsing, some Reddit, occasional calls (maybe a half hour each day), etc. I found the Nougat update made the battery life a lot better on the X Performance. I don't have any solid stats for screen on time but I think I get anywhere from 2-2.5hrs over the two days.
Thanks a lot. .
So how about your SoT after battery goes below 10%. What does it say under batteryusage, screen, how much hr of usage?
I'm just charging my phone now, so I'll let it run down and I'll report my SoT when it's around 10%
I'm at 22% right now with 1:16 SoT. This was not the greatest run because Google Play Services used up 13% of my battery. Generally, I get around 2:00 SoT over two days and Phone Idle takes up the most battery. If I see my battery draining quicker than I'm used to, I'll reboot my device and that stops Google Play Services from wasting more battery. I'm really hoping this issue will be fixed in a future update. Hope this helps!

Oh man, you are indeed a different pattern user than me.
1:15 hr SOT while your screen says 11%.....deriving from that its good.
But that idle and google play services percentage is bad.
I m using with background data off, just in intervals, and Stamina on, and location info off. I believe it ll get much better endurance in idle that way. But I also leave active the few apps I want, like Viber in battery stamina settings.
Try playing with those settings to get some better idle time.
Thanks a lot.
Just as a follow up: I heavily used my phone last night and I'm at 1:20 SoT (15 hours off the charger) with 70% battery left. Depending on your usage, you'll see much different SoT times
Thanks, that should be 15% used by Screen(should read 50% in stats), and about 15% system, google and idle in those 15hr( altogether 50% in stats).
Well, thats about 6.5hr SOT by batterytests....
Which is not bad at all.
About Same as my Z1c....
Im satisfied with that, although batteryendurance will not be an improvement over my z1c, everything else will....
Thanks alot again, I ll order it....
its about 400€+ VAT now, which is a good price for that device.

Just a surplus note:
My measurments of Z1c being about the same are with background data on.
With background data off I get 70% used by screen on half brightness.
And Much less % used in idle and android system (15%).
Which translates to about 12% battery for 1hr SoT....(surfing).
Gets easily about 8 hr SoT overall.
So X Performance should be about the same also with background data off.
Last barely 12hours to me, not much music and gaming
Just as I measjred, getting 6-7 hr SoT with my usage pattern. Its good.
Wonderful device btw. ?

Is anyone else getting like 4h sot with Google apps installed? I've sideloaded them and now am getting really really bad battery life
According to battery stats I lost 10.8% of my battery to Google Play Services although it was only active for 1 minute?
It was the lowest my note 9 had got in a day, finishing at 19% with music on for a few hours, a lot of photography, but no intensive gaming at all.
Any thoughts appreciated. I've never really had to bother with battery checks before as never get that low.
The only times when it took a lot battery were when I enabled automatic apps updates, since it tries even on poor Internet cellular connection, which can take a lot of time and heat up the phone.
Hi guys i dont know is that true or not but today after charge battery to 100% i see my battery is now much better after i disable Google Play Services and Google Play Store ....How i know...Every day after charge i use my phone to play games and in around half hour battery drop for 10% to 15%..... yestrday i disable GMS and today reacharge phone and play same game half hour and battery drop only 2% how is that possible.
