I just sideloaded 5.1 and I use Battery widget pro.
After 5.1 when I unplug my device this widget tells me I have 8 hours of battery left.
Even on 5.0 my battery seemed pretty poor but at least it would be at 12 to 14. I just don't get how it can be that bad.
Sometimes after turning it off then back on the battery level will adjust to something higher.
Is this possibly an app issue draining my battery? Anyone have any tips suggestions?
Best,
Ryan

Let it run for a day and see how much battery life you actually get. Maybe let it drain all the way out once and recharge it to 100%. I know when I ran custom ROMs on my Nexus devices, it would take a couple of days before the battery stats adjusted and displayed correct info. I once had a battery meter say 1% for about an hour before my phone died after switching to a new ROM.
How did it go? I noticed massive battery draining wakelocks on 5.1, related to phone and location. Without Xposed I don't know how to control them.
Cheers!
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. ?

I have read awesome stuff about this device's battery life and SOT, but I barely get 3.5 to 4 hours of SOT. Does anyone have a possible solution? This is ironic considering my previous crappy lenovo phone would give me 6-7 hours of SOT. Any battery saving kernel or ROM would also be appreciated, as I have unlocked bootloader and am running stock oos (latest open beta) rooted with magisk. Please advice, as if this is a hardware problem then I will return it ASAP.
Unfortunately, this thread has been made many times. No matter how specific your case is you have to analyze your usage.
But, if you need you can make yourself a quick checklist.
Whats apps are installed?
What do you do with your phone?
How many things do you sync?
How often do you game?
Do you have social media apps installed? Instagram, facebook, snapchat etc
What browser do you use?
And where did you read 7 hours SoT?
The reason being for people posting that they get 7-8 hours SoT is because those people use their phone all the time. If you look at their screenshots their idle time is non existent. With my phone that i've done a custom debloating and removed system apps that are worthless battery hogs, I get about 5 hours SoT. I leave my phone idle a lot. Idle still drains battery. If you use your phone on and off through the day, 5 hours SoT is really good. Thats what you should expect. If you get 3-4 hours SoT with normal usage patterns then you have an issue. Id say for every hour of idle time expect to lose perhaps 5 minutes of SoT. Your phone is technically a computer, its doing things constantly so it is never truly idle.
Go OOS 3.5.4. Greenify all apps Plus Play services, have xposed and install amplify to control wakelocks. Use L Speed, Keep data/wifi on only when using.
Why are you guys so obsessed with SoT? I usually get 4-5 hours with one day and half usage and at least 2 hours of Bluetooth + Spotify. As previously stated, the battery life varies on usage. Just take a look on possible wake locks if battery stats are weird. Stop focus on trying to beat the SoT world record and actually start to enjoy your phone as the beast it is
Just use Betterbatterystats and u will find the culprit.

3.5 hours is below average so there is some app which is draining your battery but around 4.5 hours / 5.5 hours sot is normal and average battery life, if you see those people which post pics with over 8 hours of sot they are lying and are faking the results, trust me so dont bother with it..
Install betterybatterystats and see which app is draining ur battery and unistall it or use greenify on it
I love my rp2 but I have absolutely ungodly bad battery drain
I'm getting a drain of about 3% per hour while the phone is not in use. According to accunattery, the worst culprit app is chrome using a total of only 0.08%
Is there a way without root that I can figure out what system services are killing this?

I've got the RP2 as a replacement for my 5th RP1, kept having issues until I told them they better send the RP2 this time. So they listened, I've had it now for around 2 months. Experiencing same issue as you pal. Battery drains fairly quickly, especially when in use, it also gets rather hot, particularly top half towards the right side. I'm pretty sure this device had been refurbished in the past so hence the issues. Maybe best thing to do is to just send this one back too, I'm still under contract so might be a good idea.
My RP2 was draining about 13% overnight. No apps showed abnormal use, but I got a tip from another user about the theme store app. I noticed it was constantly checking for completed downloads even though I had never installed anything. I disabled the app and now I only drain about 2% overnight (8) hours. Daytime use is now fine too.

Hi, there!
Anyone here having some issues with their Pixel 5?
I bought a second hand Pixel 5 here in the Philippines, everything is okay except for the thermals. When it would do video calls via wifi, it would normally reach around 40 deg celcius same case with games with heavy draining. And then, the draining overnight is super exaggerated. I would normally lose around 10% to 15% of the battery.
I tried installed accubattery and it showed that the battery health is at 95% percent so I'm clueless of what's happening.
If I would install a custom kernel like CleanSlate, will it help fix the issue or should I just look for a battery replacement?
P.S No idea yet on how to install custom shts and all but I just want to hear your thoughts.
