I know it's a large battery that's why I'm asking this question. My p9 plus drops from 100-95 relatively quickly just by using whatsapp and instagram. like less than an hour. Is that normal or is it just me?
Sorry but that is bad?
Which mobile are you coming from???

errr..? the huawei p9 plus? Cause some people say they could get more than a day out of this phone with normal usage but I can't seem to do that haha. I could if I keep the screen off like most of the time but definitely not normal usage.
A lot depends on the phone signal, if you move into areas where the signal is poor the phone is constantly looking to better that signal... Using more power. 5% an hour is pretty good by my reconning.. Will give you around 20 hours to zero.
I am coming from samsung A8. Comparing A8 the p9 plus is better in battery back up for me.
Mine is good too. Comparing with Xperia Z1 Compact is much much better. I have 5 to 6 hours of SOT and above average usage. With normal usage usualy I have close to 7 hours and 3 to 5% juice in it.
my battery life is amazing, best I've ever had on a phone, I would install wakelock detector and see whats eating your battery, I recently got over a 100 hrs between charges which is amazing, SOT was 7 hours 26 min, I do have greenify installed though which helps.
2 days and 1 hour here with 22℅ left and 5 hours SOT
This thing is just amazing
For me battery is perfect, mostly 2 days between charge and 6 hours SOT, no root pure stock for now all with normal usage.
Best battery I've ever had on any phone, even the ones with 4000mAh battery can't match this. This thing just rocks! After 3 full charging cycles I am stable on 2 days between charging with most of the time on wi-fi or 4g/3g and gps on when needed and my SOT is 8hrs up. Righ now I have 11%batt remaining and 8hrs 01min SOT.

What do you mean full charge cycle? And 2 days with 6 hours screen on time meaning your battery can last 2 days inclusive of the 6 hours SOT? cause for mine, I plugged it out at 9am and now it's already at 49%. Screen on time probably about 3-4 hours so far.
That is insane amount of screen on time. If this for was 2k screen I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. I have to wait for the P10 Plus

i think he means that he load the P9 Plus 3 time from 0 to 100%
Dropping from 100% to 95% after using Whatspp and Instagram for an hour is normal. My P9 Plus can last me more than 1 day with noramal browsing, emails, SMS and Whatsapp. It is way better than my LG V10.
First battery cycle and second cycle
WhatsApp all day
1 hour instagram
1 hour eyeem
2 hours lightning browser
Some photos
Easy 6+ hours SOT
The battery is not as good as I expected. I unplugged it at 6.45am and my usage are as follows:
WhatsApp
Facebook
Clash of Clans
Instagram
WeChat
and a little bit of browsing
My battery was 11% when I got home at 7pm. SOT was around 3 hours. Is this normal? I have to charge my phone everyday unlike what others has said.
everyone have different apps installed and we all use our device differently. Waste of time to compare each others battery life.
I have a lot of **** running in the background and i just charge when i need. Nothing i worry about, always a arm length from an electrical outlet. (home, work, school, train etc.)

Unfortunately all the apps u r running are power-intensive. I suppose if u keep running those apps from 6.45am until 7pm (which is more than 12 hours) and still left some juice on it, this should consider very good battery life already.
The P10 should be a serious contender when it comes out. I am torn between Samsung S8, Sony Zeus and the P10 Plus. I'm really interested to see what the P10 plus and Sony Zeus have to offer.
I just got phone two days now ,At second charge,very satisfied
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 Note5 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
SOT is usually 1 hour 23 minutes at 50%. With the Display brightness a little less than half.
The biggest culprit is Android OS stay awake time is always high.
Man I've been more than impressed by my SOT of the Note 5 compared to my crappy old Nexus 6. I can get 4-5 hours on here vs the 3 hours max I got on the N6. Blows me away. So much better phone than that was too.
I normally see about 3hrs on nougat where as MM I usually got closer to 4 hours which is a bummer but still reasonable. Main issue is the screen off battery drain on nougat. Seems to want to drain 8-10% per hour no matter what I'm doing most days.
It's ridiculous. I've drained my new note 5 in 2 hours SOT just browsing Web and reading this forum. I've got 4-5 hours of browsing with my old note 2. That's just crazy low. Xiaomi MI max 2 can easily give you 8 hours SOT. Thinking of exchange already :/
I don't understand how it is possible that every big review on the Internet that I found claims it is more than 8 or 10 hours of Web browsing possible on note 5! How can it be true? Some tests on YouTube shows there is only 4 hours from 100 to 0 without heavy cpu and network utilisation and just screen on...
I consider myself as a Power user. I Only get 2:30 hours no matter the screen resolution, 1080P or 2K. Nougat or Marshmallow doesn't matter. But I'm OK with that, I have a lot of apps and 3 Gmail accounts so I'm getting notifications all day long.
Oh man flashing the n fuel xl Rom was probably the best thing I've done with my note 5. Sot is still lingering around 3 hours or less but stand by time has literally doubled. Now when the screen is off, the phone actually chills out and doesn't burn up battery.
Went from 12-13 hours to 25-26 hours with my normal usage.
new note 5 user here
after reading many of your comment guys, i feel really lucky
i had a note 2 for more than 4 years (still have it) and with my average use i usually get 3.5-4 hours of screen time on
i just bought a note 5 like a week ago and i'm getting more than 6 hours of screen time on
i use the powersaving mode on "mid" and i usually dont need more than a low brightness ... i dont use my phone for games that much cuz i have a ps4 for that ... usually use it for social media and these stuff
i know its very good only bcuz i just got it but with my experience on the note 2 i will try not to drain the battery life and keep it good
note is just the best there is

Oh can you show me a link to the Rom? I am not a heavy user so about 2h sot is fine for me. However I need my phone to be able to last longer while in Standby. I get only 11hr of the phone, including 2hr sot now.
My note 5 battery is dropping >10% per hour with light use. SOT guesstimate to be about 3 hours. Standby drain is great but not when I start using it. Such battery drain defeats the purpose of a smartphone. I guess Samsung has a reason to design the phone with irreplaceable battery. Ordered the S8+ as replacement.
I was studying my battery life/SOT today. I managed to take some screen shots when my phone was around 8%. I'll upload them a little later when my phone is charged up. I let it drain all the way to try and calibrate it. I notice it shut off today at 2%. Around 8% I noticed my screen on time was over 5 hours or higher. Can't recall now the exact number but it seemed unusually high. I think I got around 10 hours of battery life. Once I post screen shots later can someone tell me if they seem accurate and if I get good battery life since I just upgraded to Nougat?

True. Irrespective of MM/Nougat, there is not much we can do about SOT. The best case can be just above 4 hrs. I am on PureX ROM of Rajeev. Between FuelXL and PureX, the best part is on Deep sleep. When the screen is off, the power consumption is close to Zero. The only reason appears to be that both the ROMs are heavily debloated. Any further major improvement to battery life of Note 5 can be only with Oreo ROM. In my Oneplus, i flashed custom Oreo ROM and the battery life is dramatically extended. So, lets wait and pray for Oreo form Note 5.
So everyone on stock N gets around 3-3.30hrs of sot. Felt relieved to read becoz i was worried and thought mayb my phones battery has loosen its capacity.
Btw is there any app that can tell us exact wear level of the battery?? I tried googling some apps but none gave me the exact info that I needed.
I thought my battery was still bad even after changing it but I'm getting well over 3 hours of screen time so it looks like I'm all good for now
I have 4.5-6 hours SOT every day. I'm on stock N, GPS, wifi, sync and lte on all the time. However, every now and then I make a cache reset in recovery, always after a new app installation. Guess my system is quite clean. Battery life is awesome om this device.

Before I sold my Note 5, estimated the battery wear with AccuBattery.
I recommend getting LG V20, its a great upgrade to the Note 5.

No way you're getting 4.5-6
I'll update the OP once I got my first battery stats.
Here is the first charge. Regular S9 what do you guys think? Mixed use between data and WiFi
I hope we are not getting screwed compared to the plus model. We will have to see and wait

(Copied from another thread) S9 Exynos here.
Second full day (after a half day when I got it) and it's been pretty horrible. I expected it to be average or not great for the first couple days, but this is nuts.
I've got everything on - location, sync, AOD, Bixby, etc - and am losing about 5% per hour with the screen off. Ending the day on 15% with only an hour or two of SOT.
Will be keeping a spreadsheet log of it, including what services are on and how I've used it, so will report back. Hope it improves naturally with everything on though. Reception is also surprisingly average; in the bathroom at work my Pixel 1 had decent enough reception to load videos, but my S9 seems to struggle to even load images. Pixel 1 had 3G in an underground pub, but my S9 couldn't get any data at all.
First full day (Snapdragon)
Haven't actually charged to 100% (except the first charge) and recorded stats. I'll have to do that and see.
But the first night after setting up my phone, during 8 hours of non-use, my battery level only dropped 4%. The next night, with AOD on, it dropped only 11% during 8 hours. Pretty happy with standby battery performance.
Exynos
Is there already a mod that improves the battery life?
Exynos version

My only suggestion is to make sure you have the display auto-adjust and to make sure nothing is running explicitly in the background all day.
Turn off Wi-fi, Bluetooth, NFC when you aren't using them.
2days turn on time with 5hrs SoT!!
Awesome.
You guys are posting some pretty decent numbers, considering all the negative coverage. 6hrs of SOT is pretty respectable and with my usage patterns it will last more than a day
Exynos S9
Used for 1 week
Disabled Bixby, Facebook
WQHD
Power saving mode off
AOD off
Max SOT 3.5 hours
3 times factory reset still no luck
Should I send my phone back to SAMSUNG for replacement?
Looked around the internet and all I could see is S10+ (4100mAh) battery life review.
Anyone with S10 (3100mAh) able to share your SOT battery life screenshots? :highfive:
We need a one week for the accurate stat. I will have 4.5-5h looks like
3.5 on my S10e exynos... This is bad
4,5h SOT / s10 before i use s9+ time is that same but i also has mate20pro over 3 month and mate20pro and this phone keep battery over 2 full day and im charging battery on 3rd day morning for 30 min to full

Battery currently at 23%. Wifi/4G and bluetooth always on.
About 3.5/4 hrs SOT on my S10e. Coming from a P20 Pro with 8-10hrs SOT (with just a 900mAh larger battery), this is really, really bad
My s10+ exynos
avg. 8.40hr sot

I am getting over 5 hours. Phone off the charger at 5:30am. Go all day. GPS. Music. Messages. Email. Little social media. Plugging back in at 10:00pm with 20% left.
Turn on adaptive battery in settings. Big difference. Remove Facebook app and use browser instead with a shortcut to home screen so it feels like an app.
Sorted.

I agree, i come from a Motorola Z2 Force and the S10e with exynos i get 3.5hrs SoT max. Im reading everywhere complains about the performance, battery and signal on the Exynos variant. I´m regreting in getting this phone. too bad in Mexico, they don´t have option to take it back. So im selling this phone.
S10 (Exynos) - SOT
I got 6hours & 10min of SOT on my Galaxy S10 (Exynos)
7 hours exynos UK soft Xeu
Anywhere between 5.5 & 6.5 SOT for me depending on usage.
S10 SD855 US unlocked version.
My Exynos S10 version is very similar.
Hey guys. i have the S10 Snapdragon. and my avg SOT is only 4-4.5hrs with 4g on during the day. the battery comes down quite quickly than i thought.. i thought it would be better than the exynos. but not really. my settings are- AOD off-only turns on when receive notifications through the AOD app. and also have the good locker to change animations. are these hogging battery? apart from these all regular usage. how are u getting 6-7 hrs??
3 hrs on s 10 exynos variant, very disappointed, feels like I got issues with my battery...
Using night mode ,aod off, 30 mins gaming, max 2 hrs video ...
Anyone with the same??

Hi...with this apk. [emoji6] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm
I received my S21 Ultra on Tmobile Wednesday and I got around 4.5 hours of SOT. However, I noticed the AOD was taking roughly 27% of the battery usage. Has anyone else that received theirs's notice high AOD battery usage?
