battery life - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

How many hours of s.o.t are you guys getting

This is typical of my usage for Mi 6x(MiUi version of Mi A2). If you play games, your sot should be significantly less.

WiFi only no 4g

My Mi3 can go almost 2 full days with just normal texting/web surfing (on HSPA+) and no games/music. I usually charge it every night with about 40-70% left. You might have a bad battery
IMHO my pre owned G3 fare better than MI3 despite the smaller battery capacity, 3000mAh vs 3050mAh. QHD vs HD and LTE vs 3G.

Zuk Z2 Pro Battery Life

Is there a reason my cell strength stops recording?
Happened again, oh well I guess it stops recording when it hits Doze. I guess I can give a battery review. Over continuous 4G at 50% brightness I get 8hrs SoT. Use includes 1hr voice calls, 2hrs YT, 30 minutes Hearthstone and the rest browsing Chrome.
8 hours sot! that's great i'm thinking to buy mi5 pro or this z2 pro 128gb, battery life is very important to me, now i see it i want to buy z2
Hi, could you do a full but short roundup of what apps you are using? I really want to compare my usage to yours and have some minor issues with my battery, especially in idle, so that would be really great. Are you root? What Rom are you on? Thank you very much

Battery

Is the battery as bad as the reviewers in YouTube are saying ? I want 6-7 SOT on normal usage.

I get 5-8h depending on what I am doing
I get around 7h SOT on normal usage with wifi on most of the time. Now I got 28% remaining and 5.5h SOT mostly on gaming/youtube. So I guess its not that bad

Most of the time I'll be on 4G tho...
Also how much battery drained while playing that game (im assuming its graphically intensive)

It's a card game, but it has some 3d elements and animations. It drains the battery 1-2%/5 minutes I think.
However, let me tell you this: I've been using Xiaomi Mi3 before (Snapdragon 800 and also 3000mAh battery) and Mi A2 lasts waaaay longer, so I assume some reviewers just look at the numbers and say the battery is weak
I'm in holiday in Bali and have been in 4G since arrival. I use the maps and Spotify for most of the day, play some light games and still have battery life to spare when we get back to the hotel at night.
The phone has great battery for me, but this is all opinions and your milage may vary. Not every has the same requirements for what great battery life is.
Not a good buy to battery life , only 4 sot to me .
I am switching from galaxy s8+. I am using galaxy with full qhd+ resolution almost full brightness.
Will Mi A2 battery work same as s8+?

maybe the worst battery life phone i have used.
in 2018 getting 4Hrs sot is not acceptable from Xiaomi
For as long as people will care about looks then manufacturers will keep making super thin profile phones. If they made them a few mm bigger then could fit a bigger battery.
It's all about deciding what you value the most as you can't have everything your heart desires in one device. Just doesn't make business sense for a company to give you the best of everything at one time.

How much SOT do you get on a S9+? Its around 3-5h. How many times more does it cost? So 4-8h on a 250€ device is fine in my opinion.

I get 6-7 hours before battery reaches to 10 %. Mostly browsing, no games, wifi and 4G mixed.
I come from a s8+ with 5-6 SOT and with the xiaomi I have 5+ SOT, almost the same. Not bad for the price i think
I think 6-7 SOT is possible, depending on what you're doing. If you game a lot or watch loads of movies, then you're really stretching it though. I only got my phone last week, so I haven't tested it that much yet, but so far I can easily get through the day on one full charge.
But I don't play games or watch a lot of YouTube or movies on it. Mainly browsing, emailing, texting, phoning, podcasting, Spotify, a bit of Reddit, etc.
On the plus side, it charges really, really fast, but that's useless if you can't plug it in during the day. Besides that, the Snapdragon 660 is supposed to be more energy efficient than its predecessors. But if battery life is the main issue for you, then you might wanna reconsider buying this phone.
I would have preferred a (slightly) thicker Mi A2 with a larger battery though. 3000mAh really is the bare minimum these days. The phone is great, but it would have been awesome with a bigger battery.
Also, bear in mind, Android One takes up 13Gb of the storage size.

Share Your SOT (Pixel 3a).

On average i get around 5-7 hrs sot with stock kernel depending upon how heavy the usage was.
Currently i am satisfied with the results.
Everyone share your sot.
Mine is 8+ hours.
But it's been just 4 days since I got this amazing mobile.
I had Pixel 3 before this and had to charge it twice daily. Life seemed tense then.
I don't play any games and I've literally found no difference in usage with 3a other than the amazing battery life.
Love it.
Mine is 6+ hours light usage, 4/5 when i play some games heavy usage (a little bit of wifi, much 4g)

Battery Results for 120hz , 90hz and 60hz

Hey everyone i have already ordered my phone and I'm pretty hyped for the battery.
Does anyone have a battery drain screenshot for the 60hz or 90hz?
Most battery tests online have used the 120hz through their videos and I'm curious about how long the phone will last if you really push the battery to low speeds.
Only using 120Hz mode, always around 10h of SoT
Everyones usage is diff and mileage differs...
Example I also using 120hz but my SOT at best was 7 hrs and 30 mins
