I like to be able to find my phone if I lose it so if I leave my Location setting to High Accuracy all the time will it drain my battery? If so, will switching to Device Only be better?
I keep mine on high accuracy and see little battery drain from it.
It does drain the battery a good amount. I can normally get an extra few hours if I disable location. Which I normally keep disabled all the time.

I do have what's app and Instagram apart from the other two that you mentioned .. my general use is of 3.5 to 4 hours per day but by the end of day the battery dies..so my question is should I stop background running apps? I have around 30 to 35 apps installed on phone..
I got this tips for battery longevity..
Also, don't put phone on vibration mode...it consumes battery...either silent or sound..
Attached
1) get charger alarm and set it to 80%
2) disable uselesa background apps.
Thats it.
I charge to 80% every morning, despite having 4G volte + data 24/7 with upto 2 hours calling, 30mins-60mins gaming, 1hr+ chatting, 30mins+ 9gag, 30mins youtube...
Mine phone still stays around 35%...when I check next morning
Data (4g), location, auto synch are ALWAYS turned ON
(Yesterday my totol usge was 5.5hours with 1hour gaming (fortnite)... My battery was at 25% when i checked this morning)
I recently bought the honor play but have found the battery usage to be higher than I would like at night during standby. I leave my phone connected to wifi and 4g (although 4g is not on when wifi is) and I noticed that the phone wakes up a lot during the night. It seems that it mostly wakes up more often when on wifi as when on 4g during the day there are far fewer wake up events. So to solve this problem I'm using tasker to disable wifi, deny all network activity (excluding calls), bluetooth and auto sync for me during 11:30pm and 7.30am. The result is that the phone barely wakes up at night now and I am getting 2-3% battery drain over 8 hours instead of 10-14%. So I would recommend doing this, as it seems to improve battery life. There may be other apps that can do the same thing but I like the interface and usability of it over something like automate.
Edit: I would also recommend leaving the standard power saving mode on all the time as it doesn't limit performance but just limits background activity. However, this does disable auto sync, but then you could just set auto sync to turn on at set intervals using tasker, at least that's what I'm doing.
Hey guys, can anyone help me. I am having abnormal battery usage by Facebook. I put it on list to sleep when not in use, disabled background usage but still it's huge.
Here is also settings for this app.
So did anyone else get terrible batterylife with andeoid 10?
I went from 8h SOT to about 5h.
Am thinking of downgrading cause before it was the best phone ive ever had
There isn't 10 for my csc yet
Anybody else confirming bad battery life on 10?

Wish I could tell you. All I know is it was the best battery I've seen. Was using it 'normally' and throughout 24 hours I got 7-8 hours battery life always, every single day for half a year. With music streaming for 1-2h, some browsing, location on, bluetooth on, and all apps like facebook, instagram etc. disabled.
Now I get 2 hours 20 mins and its already on 48%. Android 10 was a garbage and I wish I could downgrade without much hassle. I cannot find out what is draining the battery, there is no app. If I account for the apps it has used around 1000mah or less, which is 1/3rd, wihc would put me at around 70% - that would be my old battery life. But there is something else draining 20-30% battery and it is not shown in the battery reports, I am using accubatterry.
I really hate it, now I hate this phone
Battery draining mainly depends on how device is used, means how much CPU/GPU are stressed. Has NOTHING to do with Android OS itself: an OS is a piece of software, nothing else, an OS doesn't consume electric power. It are all the running apps/services - either running in foreground or in background, for example Location Providers & Google Play Services - that drain the battery, as also the activated hardware components like the screen, WiFi, GPS, SIM-cards, BlueTooth, etc.pp. even if device is in standby mode. It are the device's power management settings what control the behavior of Android phones that could affect the system's power consumption, such as adjusting lighting, handling the phone's sleep, and the wake-up, idle, turn-off timing, back lighting or display brightness of the device. It are the device implementers who define the related constants suitable to their devces, it's NOT Google , the developers of Android. With regards to Samsung S10 devices it's worldwide known that it has a very poor power management compared to others.
BTW: Since Android 9, the platform can monitor apps for behavior that negatively affects the battery life of devices.
No matter what you do to your device, it will never stop draining the battery.

You have no idea what you are talking about and should stop wasting everyones time talking about that
So I simply reset my phone and I am back to 8h SOT and happy again.
3h42mins with 62% of the battery at like 8h usage
And after about 15h usage at 51% with 4h10mins SOT ?
I also got terrible battery life after the 10 upgrade.
What do you mean by reset? How?

A simple factory reset, type reset in your settings in the search bar and do a factory reset.
It will delete everything, so make a backup before
