I had Huawei, now Lg V20. When constantly recording videos and taking pictures phones heat up and drain battery a lot. Full battery can drop to 0 in 30-60 mins. When you are on holiday, that's not ideal. Yes, I have spare betteries, but it's gone in 40 mins if I record and snap pics. Also often it drops from 40% to 0 in few mins. Screen brightness doesn't make much difference.
I'd appreciate is somebody can advise me how is this on Note 8?
Thanks!

Note 8 doesn't have a removable battery. So definitely not for you.
For me, shooting UHD video (3840x2160) with flash, drains approx 1% per minute. Without flash, approx 1% every 1,5 minutes.

If I can get 6 hrs sot, I wouldn't worry that much about battery, but it's hard to get even with 1k phone prices. Than again...
So that's approximately 60% of battery gone in 1 hour. I was using cinematic filter too yesterday.
Hopefully in next few years we will see major improvements in battery life. Maybe phones won't be backlighted, but more e-ink type.
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
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

I get that I'm asking the screenshot for battery usage page which shows the SOT, Applications used and how much it has drained
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 Note 20 Ultra before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
For my Snapdragon N20U (yes in Korea we finally get the Snapdragon version!), I'm getting quite horrible battery life, whether it's SOT or heavy usage, or background drain. Now I know that with Samsung phones you need at least 1 week for the phone to learn your habbits and make adjustments, however the difference in SOT and standby drain between my N20U and P30 Pro is too large, even considering the lack of usage learning.
For example, if I use my P30 Pro for an hour to take pictures, browse the web, and listen to some music through bluetooth, it will use around 5%. With my N20U, I'll leave the house with 100%, NOT use the phone at all, have a quick 30 minute lunch, and look at the phone and it will also have lost 5%. SOT is at least for me pretty bad also. Yesterday I left the house at 6:30pm, took some pics (around 20-30), did some light browsing, and when I got back home at around 10pm, my phone was at 25%. I slept at 3am, then woke up at 9:30am, and my phone was at 14%. So yeah... it seems to not be that good
I've seen random concerns about this on youtube. Thank you for sharing. Please continue to update us with more data.
My review unit averages around 4-4.5 hrs screen on time with 13-16hrs average total standby time.
Will post screenshots tomorrow after review embargo period lifted.
Exynos n20u

Most of those reviews are with 120 Hz on all day, with pre release sw, 120 Hz eats through the battery of the S20 Ultra as well with heavy use
First full day of usage all under wifi texting, web browsing few calls

120hz always ??
Hi,
Note 20 Ultra Exynos version 512Go and 2h30 of SoT on Youtube/wifi, 1h web browsing, 120Hz adaptative and 75% left.
It's seem to be good.
I am not able to understand the Exynos battery life. Some ppl are getting decent SOT and for others, its just terrible. Even many of the reviews which I have watched are similar. Really getting confused here and unable to make a decision.
Have anyone test benchmark on Ultra Note 20 RAM8GB Exynos990?

I got 9 hours and 10 minutes of screen on time on my first full charge. Not too bad for only having a 4500mah battery. I have the unlocked US Snapdragon version and I'm using 120hz and leaving it at about 70 percent brightness most of the day.

That also shows you put it on the charger twice to achieve almost 9 hours of screen on time.
It no longer breaks down screen time like it used to. In past Android versions, it would show SOT since last charge. Now it shows TOTAL SOT for the whole day.
I could technically leave it on the charger and play with it all day, and it would show 24 hours SOT.

My battery life so far has been pretty bad. For example, it's been off the charger for two hours and I'm down to 75%. Now I've been using it fairly heavily since then with about 90 minutes of screen on time.
But with my Note 10+, I'd still have about 85% battery after using it for an hour and a half. I'm also experiencing stand by drain real bad.
This was after a fresh clean install. Nothing was restored or transferred over.
I can only assume it's the 5G (although my standby drain was while on WiFi), or the 120Hz refresh rate (which also doesn't explain the standby drain).
I'll let it settle for a few more days, then I may start fresh again with a factory reset.

wow I haven't seen anyone claim this much SOT for any version before.
Cant just read screen on time on battery setting.. its not screen on time since last unplugged/charged full
Now it displays screen on time for the whole day, even if u charged during the day.
Use gsam/accubattery
Just done a rolling video test with the Note 8 and Note 20 ultra. Both on full brightness playing the same set of files.
The Note 8 display is brighter and more colourful. After 3 hours or so the Note 20 ultra has 82% left and the Note 8 has 76%
If you look at the difference in battery capacity (4500 vs 3300) and the difference in screen size then I would say the Note 8 performs better even with the brighter display.
4th day in Exynos. Phone has been on for 3 hours, 45 mins SOT consisting of browsing socials, no apps running in background 75% battery remaining ? This is terrible, can't see it getting better....
Note 20 Ultra with Exynos.
Terrible Battery life in 5 days.
I have it for 5 days and it has not reached the end of the day in any case.
100% at 8:30 am and 5% at 7:00 pm.
Without playing, just text on Telegram, browsing with Chrome and 30-40 minutes on YouTube.
Little more than 3 hours of screen.
I have removed Bixby, 3 widgets, I have disabled the mobile line that I had in the esim (I have only left the microsim). I have disabled 5G and left only until 4G.
And I have gotten a little more battery, but it does not reach almost 4 hours of screen.
I repeat. Without playing games, without taking photos, without taking videos.
Very disappointing.
And let's not talk about paying the same price as in other countries with SnapDragon for its Exynos, which is more than proven to be a much worse processor.
In their own country (South Korea) they use SnapDragon. That is, they do not offer their own processor to their own country. That is how little confidence they have in Exynos. Of course, the rest of the world (not counting the United States) endorse us what they do not want even in their own country.
have been using Rog 3 about a month and noticed that the battery is not that great especially if we consider it is a 6000mha, at least in my device
thought i would share some screenshot to my battery and hear your opinions if you think it is OK or there is something wrong
What did you expect? Your battery life is pretty normal for a 6000mah battery device. Not piss poor. Not great. Just normal. Were you expecting 3 days standby time with normal usage?
I might see it wrongly but the first pic is showing the phone is up 1 day 9hrs without charging, that's more than what I would asked for.

Something is wrong with your set. Please get a refund from the seller. Even by playing PUBG or COD in X-Mode at max brightness does not drain from 100% to 0% in 3 hours.

New phones have 5000-6000 mah with either Snapdragon 700 series or mediatech . This processor uses it pretty well giving 10-11 hours sot to me

Can't compare a 60hz screen with a phone giving 144hz screen. The drain of the screen will be much heavier than 60hz.
The 6000 mah battery is really good when you compare from specs point of view. Higher CPU clock speed, higher GPU clock and higher screen refresh rate and faster and more RAM. A Ferrari will use much more gas than a standard car even your Ferrari have a bigger gaz tank.
I can use this phone without ever think about getting out of juice before I get to sleep.
In the last 7 hours I used my phone for 4h20, playing game during 2 hours (COD and PUBG) and 50% of the battery remaining. So if I keep using the phone that way it means that I could run out of battery with about 8h SoT and 4 hours of gaming. I never had a phone allowing me to play that many hours of high quality games with all graphics to max.

Yes, I don't know a phone that gives you the perfect battery calibration. This phone show a loss of battery really fast in the first 10% then afterward it is slower.
I remember my Sony Z Ultra was really slow to lose the first 10% then battery was dropping really fast until reaching 20 25. And the remaining battery was longer to be used than the 60 previous %.
Or my HTC Sensation XE that could be used about half a day to drop from 5% to 0.
