Hello! just got the phone. Last night i charged it 100%. In the morning, i saw that the battery had 98%. I only had the internet on, all aps were closed. So overnight it lost 2%? Really? With that battery and the phone being brand new?
I still have the 9 EMUI, didnt update to 10
During the day, for about 2hrs i never touched the phone, and it simply lost 3% of the battery
When i use it on insta, browser, fb it loses about 1% every 8, 10, or 13 minutes.
also, basically, the phone also loses battery while being idle.
Is it normally? The phone is brand new, bought it from an authorised dealer.
thank you
Wait for battery calibration. In second day when I bought P30Pro i lost 30% in less than hour of idle, when everything was off. If will not be better, try to wipe cache (not full wipe).

Thanks for the info. So after aprox a week your battery started to work fine? I also wiped the cache and didnt saw any difference.

My P30 Pro still does this now and I've had it since launch. Think it's fair to say a 2% drop from night till morning is pretty good. The fact mine still does it now after a year of use shows how decent the battery life is. Two days use with ease.

Not sure whats going on but the battery on my Note 3 is horrible since the update. I fully charge it and 1 hr later (not even using it) I've lost 5-10%. It barely last the whole day now. I've even wiped the device and it continues to happen. Doing a quick test right now, fully charged its been off the battery for 20 mins and I'm showing 27% usage on the Android System, 10% on the Android OS and 15% of the screen and its down to 97% already.
Any ideas?

things to try: (no this isnt a 'disable anything useful like email and google plus' post )
1. camera - there is some well documented issue, if you open the camera app, there is some kind of battery drain going on. google it, there is tons of reading material for it. temp fix is reset.
2. I have noticed google now makes my battery life do what yours does, drop 10% easy in an hour of it being completely idle. open the app, disable google now, and then see what is going on. i hate disabling anything but its worked for me.

Thanks after a second reset it seems much better. Maybe it was one of my Apps? For now I'll just install them 1 at a time.

Same thing happened to mine. Went to bed at 95%, killed all apps, empty ram, turn off data but left wifi on. Woke up 8 hours later and it was down to 17%. Unprecedented 10% hour drain. Usuallly it drains 3 -5 percent overnight. Same thing happened to wife's phone and she is on Sprint but she left wifi and data on. Uninstalled Google camera and Skype and notice it went away. Testing it again tonight.
Edit: Test it again last night. 4% drop in 8 hours. Woke up to 96% this morning. Hopefully that fixed the problem.
Update: Went to bed at 11:30 at 68% and woke up 7 hours later and battery is still showing 68%! Surf the web for 5 minutes before battery drop to 67%. Amazing standby battery drain. I had turn off wifi, bluetooth, and data before going to bed and killed all the apps. Usually this will cause a .5%/hour drain but it barely drain .5% in 7 hours this time!
My Alcatel Idol 4S Windows 10 seems to lose charge. Yesterday, after fully charging around 4:00 PM, I let the phone sit, completely unused, till this morning. It was turned off with LTE enabled...nothing else on, and most everything set not to run in background. I also have set the phone not to sync automatically. Now at 9:00 it is at 94%. When I browse or use YouTube it really drains quickly. I have done a factory reset. Any thoughts?
Once the phone went down to 10% and powered down. Afterwards it charged normally. Any thoughts? Thanks.
Update: A 20 minute call drained the phone by 4%
Update 2 I went back in and made sure that absolutely nothing is working in background. I wish another Windows owner could give me a sense of what kind of battery usage/drainage is normal for this phone. I amcoming from a Lumia 521 which drains slowly. I'm reluctant to return this to T-Mobile and wind up with a refurb.

Last night I charged the phone to 100%, turned everything off...phone in airplane mode, so no cellular drain. This morning phone at 95% with nothing running and nothing in background. Surely someone on this forum must have insight into this.

5% battery drain overnight seems about par for the course, no? Means your phone untouched would stay on for 6.6 days in standby mode if my math is right.

is that par for the course? Some people seem to lose no or 1% charge when in standby overnight (everything off). How much charge do you lose when you make a 20 minute call, or play a youtube, or when your phone is not in use, but is connected to cellular with bluetooth on?
Thanks for your response
Send it to Alcatel for a battery replacement. You will get the same phone back that you sent in. I just did, and my battery life issues are much better.
The simple fact that your phone shuts of at 10% means that you need a new battery. It will get worse.
Hi All
I bought Nokia 7 Plus yesterday and set it up, but the battery drain so fast. I left my phone to sleep with wifi on throughout my sleep it drains 10% with just pushing notifications from FB, like everytime I will get FB Notifications and not open it it will drain 1% of the battery.
Remove fb and see magic
U just answered to your question. It's not the phone, it's just crappy facebook app.
Facebook Lite is the way to go if you need FB, I think - normal version eats battery a lot, and I'm not sure if that will be fixed at all - seems like they don't care.
If you have to use Facebook, use Facebook lite or alternative apps like Friendly.
Hi, I got Nokia 7 Plus yesterday and started using it today. Initially with the battery percentage came with package, battery draining was slow. After doing first charging from 21% to 100%, battery is draining too fast. It is common for some batteries and takes some charging cycles to get battery optimized. If battery draining is happening too fast even after 3 to 5 charging cycles then there would be some fault with battery.

I got my phone day before yesterday & its now running Android 8.1 with the May security patch. Since the time of use, I've charged my phone only twice & both times charged it up to 100%. I feel the batter is draining. Please have a look at the screenshots and let me know if the battery consumption is fine or its draining fast. The battery dropped by 1% in 4 mins of the phone being idle with the display closed. Also the stock camera app is consuming a lot of battery.
I can confirm a very hard drain, too. No way to reach 7-10 hours of usage.
i'm getting about 5-5.5 hours of sot with moderate usage... Checked the app usage..where it shows PUBG used 12% battery in 38 min, 45 min of youtube drain 8% 26min Instagram drain 5%...I don't use fb much on phone when needed i mainly use fb lite... .i don't use auto brightness. so my brightness level is always 45%.. in overnight( well it's like 5-6 hours) battery percentage dropped 4%.. Wifi is always on and GPS is always on high accuracy.. in power saver 19 apps are allowed for background activity...
Battery drain
I just purchased my phone yesterday and used it for some time. I put it on charging at around 20% and didn't use it until full charge. After it got completely charged and then I just used it for few mins it went down 100% to 95% very fast; later after few mins I started suffering net and did misc stuff for about an hour it went down to 85%. Next morning I saw the battery % was 81%. Is this normal? I mean how can it last for 2 day as the company claimed. Aslo I am android 8.1.0

This has been a comman issue with Nokia 7 plus, including me. My battery had high discharge rates in both Oreo and Pie. However, post March security update, I am seeing some good battery life. I would also suggest to update to Pie and update Device Health from Play Store. Hope it works out for you.
try letting the battery drain to 0% then charging it to 100
TA1062 with build 00WW_3_51F here.
Before the march update, the phone could last for almost 2 days with moderate usage.
After the march update, I barely have 5 hours of standby time, and like 2 hour of usage time. This is crazy ! Not heating, but also randomly shuts down while it says like 65% remaining battery. I haven't changed anything else !!!
Does anyone have any idea how to improve this ?

Do a factory reset
Hello. I need some help with my new (like 3 weeks old) P20 Pro (single sim, no root).
I'm really happy with this phone now except for one thing. That thing is Standby drain.
I lose like 1-2% PER HOUR over night, doing nothing.
I left my phone last night on 25% and went to sleep.
Next morning, 7 hours later I was on 13%, losing almost 2% per hour.
In my opinion, that's just too much for doing nothing on the phone.
I'm not an expert reading those battery stats, but I dont actually see a problem.
There are no wake locks and the only apps that use the battery are Android-System, Kernel (Android OS) and Google Play-Services.
Huawei Health and Google Play-Services used the Sensor time a lot, but I don't know if the sensor time is important for the battery.
If you have a solution, please give me an advice.
My dad gets the same phone next week and I wanna get it done untill he gets the phone, so I can do the same.
Things I've done:
- wiped cache
- reverted to factory settings via standard recovery
- debloated (like 15-20 apps)
Screenshots:

Network + Sensor + Hold Time
Big thanks.
Trust me, you're experiencing the same thing I have been for the last 6 months. It takes around 3 weeks or so for the phone to learn how you use the battery and from what people have told me on XDA, Reddit and Telegram, this battery drain is "normal" which I still don't believe. I had a Redmi Note 5 Pro before this phone and it probably drained only 2% overnight over 7 hours and I could hit SOT of near 11 hours on a single charge so idk what Huawei has done with the battery optimization of this phone as my Note 5 Pro also had a 4000mAh battery like this phone.
All you can do is continue using the phone and hope it stops soon or maybe think about replacing it with a better phone
Hello guys.
I just bought today my p30 pro.
I opened it and the battery was at 64%.
I setup my phone etc for some time and the battery went after some hours to 50%.
Then I put the phone aside and picked it up after about an hour and the battery was at 42%.
Nothing was happening at the background, no downloading no synching etc.
Is it something normal because it was the first usage of the phone after opening it? After the first fully charge I will give it, is it something that will not happen again?
Thanks in advance.

Hi m8, have you checked in Settings/Battery if there are some apps that squize your battery juice? Ex:Facebook, Instagram or another app that is always on and stays connected in background?
I always deactivate those apps and other ones from staying open in background or starting on boot.

I checked and i didnt find something unusual.
After it went at 42%, it was loosing 1% every 1,5 / 2 hours with just sitting there.
Today i gave it its first fully charge and after 4 hours its still at 100%, with just 10-15 minutes of calling time and a couple of sms. But for now it looks good.
I just wanted to know if the battery behavior i had is normal when you open the phone for the first time before you charge it for the first time.

When i've opened my phone it was on 58% battery. After software update and setting it up (~4h) it was on 10%. I've charged it overnight and on first day usage (from 7:30 AM 'till 23:30 PM) it was down to 23%. After that, on normal day by day use i can get ~ 6-7 hours on SOT (AOD, YouTube, Facebook, email, Chrome, calls, some photos/videos depending situation). If i have a busy day at work, it will drain ~10%-15% on 6-8 hours without hard usage.
Is it normal to have that high% at cell standby?
I cant find a way to post the picture, but my cell standby is at 18.89%.
