Seems like many have received the 6.0.1 update on android one devices as well. Has it improved the battery life compared to the drain issues on 6.0 or is it the same.
a little better, but ... flash thunderzap kernel or cody`s ..and you`ll get around 320-25 for a full charge ..
It's Worse
The battery life reduced drastically after i upgraded to 6.0.1. Especially the screen off time.

This is starting to get me depressed. I am close to pulling the trigger on one, in spite of the general consensus that Battery Life is Mediocre+. I had great hopes on Google's assertion that battery life on Lollipop would be improved. Now, most of the posts/reports I see are that Battery Live on MotoX2 is LESS on Lollipop. Clouding my decision again! Is battery life on this phone & Lollipop going to be that terrible?

The bad battery on lollipop is from a buggy build. It will improve.
Go and check the battery life thread in the general Moto X 2014 subforum. There are plenty of Moto X owners getting 5-6 hours of SOT.
Lollipop is producing battery life bugs on Nexus devices as well. Lollipop is a huge change for Android and Google will need a few months more to resolve the issues. It will be worth the wait.
Maybe they are encrypted. I am not and have great battery.
Hi, i upgraded my z3 compact with lollipop but downgraded to kitkat because of bad battery life, now the battery is indeed better tha lollipop but its still not as great as it was at the beginning.
It drops fairly 1% after few minutes of surfing web and it droped 2-3 %in last 7 minutes whiles i was posting these. I did a clean install of kitkat. Could you please tell me that does your battery drop 2-3 % easily for searching through forum's, and also it drops easily if i install apps from sd card at around 1% every 2-3 apps i install.
i flashed 760 and i had bad battery life,then ota .28 and now i have 2 days of battery life ^^

sounds good, I'll have a try.
Ok i downgraded to kitkat and i kinda like it more except the icons and few material changes, here i the things i noticed
1- louder ? sounds in headphones (not sure) but definitely in notification
2- better battery life , charging while playing games
3- consistent battery ? life
4- i like kitkat notification better than lollipop,
5- may be a little smooth
6- ui was better and original than sony did with lollipop. App drawer was better using full space unlike new one showing a tab.
7- i liked Walkman player app more, unlike lollipop ? switching between clear audio is easy.
Hey you didn't replied my original question, can you do following testing for me.
1- battery drop in standby while you sleep, i. E 8-9 hour without touching phone ?
2- battery drop while installation of apk from sd card
3- battery drop through speakers, how much it dropped with each song played at full volume.
I think i will not upgrade to lollipop until they feature raw support to cameras. Kitkat is more stable for me.
Thanks.

i am having the same battery life degrading problem , my version is android 5.0.2 and build number is 23.1.A.0.726 . can you tell me what updates did you mean in your reply pls ...
If you can live without lollipop material design, kitkat is way more battery ? friendly, try downgrading, i don't feel upgrading now just for new version. Though raw camera ? support can change my mind
C5503 Xperia ZR owner here. Currently on 4.4.4 and everything is smooth and zippy. I wonder if that snappiness and speed will remain if I upgrade to 5.1? I heard reports of poor battery life on lollipop.
Worth upgrading?
Certainly the performance and snappiness have increased on LP. And the whole UI is butter smooth. I think its worth to upgrade to LP if you don't care about the battery life. Battery life is poor compared to KK but its not totally worse. Also make to upgrade 5.1 and not 5.0 as its has tons of bugs.

Poor Battery life on lollipop is a deal-breaker. I think i'l stick with 4.4.4. Thanks for the feedback!

Wise decision . Me too doing the same.
After a longtime. I updated to 5.1.1 from 4.4.4 some 20 days before. It is nice many aspects. Battery life is also ok. Phone is very smooth. If you are using xposed. Be careful with evry xposed app. First time in my life i caught up with bootloop for installing serjr. But learnt many things after that.
Overall LP 5.1.1 is nice with smooth and many good features.

Ever since I upgraded my Note 4 to Marshmallow, the SOT sucks. The Standby time is very good, it only drains battery faster than lollipop when it is in use. Even with that issue, I still don't want to downgrade to Lollipop because the UI is more fluid, more responsive and since I upgraded, I have not experienced hang on my Note. I already have the best tools for extending battery (Greenify, PowerNap and Amplify) and already debloated my ROM. Any suggestions how to extend the SOT on MM or can anyone explains why?
What's the SOT you are getting?

Seems like you are not using network always because your screenshot is in airplane mode.
Nevermind, found the culprit that is draining my battery when I'm connected to a network. The wifi scanning and the bluetooth scanning on location settings.
Hi guys,
I'm looking for a custom ROM which I can use for a long time.
Important for me is: performance, stability, battery life and also that the idle drain doesn't become high after a few days.
I would be really happy if you guys can help me and I would like to hear more responses than just one.
Thanks in advance
I'm currenly using Pixel OS latest build and it seems fine for me. Performance is decent but I don't know how it fare with gaming. Stability is excellent, very few bugs and those bugs are very minor (like UI). Battery life is decent. Idle drain is ok, I've gotten 27hrs screen off and only got 1% drain from it. Though some users report that they experience 40% drain overnight, I'm guessing idle drain depends on usage now
