Screen on time - Samsung Galaxy J5 Real Life Review

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Samsung Galaxy J5 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

I usually got 6-8h SOT. I'm gapps free though and also I don't use Facebook or such crap.

I get around 7 hours SOT on stock, meanwhile on LOS i got 8hrs 5min SOT(pico gapps) ?

Very impressive screen on time on J5 2017. Much better than the S8+ that I had.

on stock rom, around 8 hours. custom roms have given 16hours of SOT

Screen on time on a cm13 ROM on the J5 2016

6-7h on wifi watching youtube on 720p, completely stock, july sec patch, disabled bloat with an app

got it since 2 weeks, I can do 12h SOT! for me it's pretty good

Probably because your battery is old, this was when the phone was new

How's that possible? ? If you have 11hrs SOT you should have used your device for at least 11hrs...

Which is better 2nd build or 3rd excluding face unlock feature
I got 10 h pretty hard usage for me, I had 6 h sot with op3, I think you should check your application if you got less than 8-10 h, maybe something is working all time in background and because of that you have sound wakelock etc. there is many options, use any wakelock detector to check it
I got almost 9h SoT in 2 days and 10h since last charge, with the open beta 1. That was the best SoT I ever had, specially with so much standby time.

Your MX player is consuming way more battery than it should be , for a usage of 1h 38 min it should not consume more than 7-9% of battery as I have experienced till now on this handset

The battery consumption does depend on the time viewed/used ... Agreed; But it also depends on the brightness used while viewing videos which depends person to person.
I can relate to it as I have noticed improvements in SOT after disabling adaptive brightness and keeping it fixed to 25% brightness for all tasks
This was the best. Stock android no root latest 326 build

How this amount of SOT u r getting???

Though I am not so heavy user, I use above mid level. I recommend the following.
1. Charge your phone for only for 3 hours and when it's below 20%
2. Screen brightness 50%
3. Rotation off

Possibly the BEST Screen On Time ever?

I've own the note 9 since it's release, and I've heard that the phones need to "calibrate" themselves to achieve their best battery life, so long story short, today I got this INSANE SOT
Pretty much an hour of SOT per every 10% of battery.
NO battery saving mode.
My screen is at WQHD
AOD off (I don't really need it)
Mostly WIFI
I'm using Swift Installer (all black with accents)
IMO I think this battery is an absolute beast. What do you guys thinks?
And yes, this was on a single charge. From 100% down to 4%
Did you check if anyone got better
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/review/screen-time-t3824664
Not a record but still impressive..I've seen 13+ hours even on Note 8 lol. You can game SOT like crazy if you really want to

Yeah I know, the thing that surprised me was that I didn't even noticed until I opened the battery stats and checked, I watched a LOT of YouTube and even played some TWAU

There was this random one from Reddit. Of course, staring at Reddit for as long as this person did probably helped.

Best battery performance Rom (2 year usage)

Hi, I use mi 5 nearly 2 year. I'm heavy user first 6 month but now i use my phone for basic things. 9gag, Instagram, WhatsApp etc. not gaming. And I have max 1,5 hour screen on time. I need some tip. Want to down clock my cpu or battery performance Rom. Any advice?
Hi man,
here's my suggestion based on several configurations and tests with both AOSP and MIUI roms:

Im currently use this setup but darknes kernel already. Still 1 hour 30~ minute max SoT. With syberia OS i got 1 hour 50 minute. I check some forums for mi5 SoT they talk like 4-5 hour SoT. :silly:

I had a similar problem, replace your battery. I bought a NOHON battery on Aliexpress and have had no problems for 2-3 months now. It regularly gets 4-4.5hrs SoT on JDC Nougat Revived.

Hello,
Can You tell me guys which miui Rom is most stable and has SoT?
Stable
Masik x miui 1.5
Epicrom
Miui MS
ROS

SoT and Charging Rate

Hey there guys! I'm creating this discussion for y'all to post the stuff mentioned in the title. These things are crucial to making decisions when choosing roms, realising bugs in updates or apps etc(or even choosing the phone itself). Also please do mention your ROM, kernal version, build number and any other relevant info that would make comparisons ( and conclusions) more fair ( and accurate).
P.S : screenshots of battery chart and activity are quite helpful too :good:
Today it took 3 hours and 25 minutes for my phone to charge from 5% to 100% percent. Is that bad or good? Or is it just okay?
Stock locked bootloader with .339
For my phone, 3 hours 25 min seems okay. When the phone is new it only takes around 2.5 hours to charge. Nowadays, I take me anywhere from 3.5 to 5 hour to charge. Not sure whether it is due to some apps in my phone or the charger that I use is not good enough. I am still okay with it since I usually charge the phone once every few days.
This for almost min usage (kinda between moderate and min usage). In stock, non root, build .339 greenify with adb permissions
Stock not rooted
