A way to check battery health that isn't Accubattery? - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

My Pixel 5 started with 98% battery health (according to Accubattery) and three days later had dropped to 95% and now it's on 93% and the phone is less than a month old. I'm dubious about the readings, although I'm not really getting quite the stellar battery life that some others are reporting. Is there another way to check my battery health, or should I try to put it out of my mind and just stop worrying about it? Thanks, in advance!

Is your Pixel 5 suffering from battery drain? Here's what to do about it
The Pixel 5 and its larger battery are suffering from severe drain issues. Google has issued a fix, but there are more steps to try.

flashing the factory image without -w
helped clear up the battery issues I was facing.
May be worth trying. Just make sure to remove the -w as to not wipe your data.

Since they test these batteries extensively I wouldn't be surprised if yours was accidentally left on. If you are truly worried and have a Samsung Experience store near by I would take it in and they can run a full diagnostics on it.

Maybe it just fell below the threshold for the battery, a long charge maybe all it needs.
Samsung store says that this is pretty normal and could happen, but a search for a similar problem in google, I found many reply suspect a battery problem if recieved dead out of the box.
I had a friend on some carrier I can't remember who note was dead also. I was surprised. But there was a SIM card already in it.
Ok, before the end of 14 days period, what's your recommendations to ensure that the battery is normal and does not suffer from abnormal self draining or other faults.
In mass production there's a chance not every phone is charged after testing. If you charged it and wi road fine. Ttbe the battery is fine

Use it and see whay the battery life is for you.
4.5 SOT and 15 hrs is pretty typical. You're fine.
If you have access to a Samsung Experience store, take it in and have them test the phone. That'll let you know if there's anything wrong with it.
The second charge give me 1 day usage and SOT 5h 40m, at night battery drain is 1% every hour, I think the battery is normal, Thanks for your support.

Battery Drain is V.Bad Need HELP....!!!

I hav bought a secound hand oneplus 3t and hav been using it since a couple of weeks i have a lot of battery drain when the phone is sitting idle jst like browsing chrome or something . Some of the examples of my drain is charged to 100% and after 32 min of use the battery drops to 80-83%
i have tried almost all the custom roms and the stock roms I get only around 3-4hrs sot only on the stock marshmallow rom i hit 5 hrs need help
really bad.
You'll need to provide a bit more info to figure out exactly what's causing the drain. Download BetterBatteryStats, that will allow you to see which Wakelocks are involved.
Also, how old is the phone? Considering the usage and charging habits of the previous owner, its possible the battery itself might have degraded since batteries do degrade over time.

To do that, for an accurate reading you'd euther need a multimeter or any other capacity meter, but i believe you'd have to open your phone up even if you did have one of those devices since the battery isn't user accessible.
However, you can also use apps such as Accubattery which give you a similar reading. It wont be as accurate but it'll give you a general idea.

A little battery problem?

Hi there guys, I know everybody hates these kind of questions, but... do you have battery life problems on this thing? I got it 3 days ago and the battery life is much worse than my old S8+
I am a heavy user but the battery is draining even on idle. I do not use always-on display or location services, and there are no rogue apps... but it simply drains. According to reviews everywhere it should last as long as in a P20 Pro, but actually it lasts half of that.
Model: SM-N960F
reboot it a few times in the next few days

It seems like this is doing the trick. It lasts longer step by step.
Thanksss man!

Question Battery Life is getting worse, anyone else noticed that?

The battery life is getting worse every single day, I am getting less and less battery life as the days goes by. I can't return this phone neither will someone buy a phone this bad.
If someone else noticed that their phones battery life has gotten worse, pls let me know (any tips would be great too)
Thanks.
I absolutely have noticed this.
Me too
Me three.
I was using my phone on OOS12 until the nagging messages were too annoying to ignore, so I let it do it's thing to 13.
This was a couple of weeks ago. Since then, I've noticed SIGNIFICANT battery drain, I used to be able to go all day with light use and have more battery left over by bedtime. Lately I need to top it off to last the day or else it will be dead by dinner time.
I was going to just blame the OOS13 update but are you guys saying this is recent and across the board? Did something happen, maybe a OP app is running in the background after an OTA?
It's expected that the battery will degrade with time. You can download a recognized battery app, which will show your remaining capacity.

Yes I know, but this phone is barely a year old and the difference was very sudden from one day to the next.

Rapid change in battery life

Hello, I've had my p30 pro for almost 4 years and the battery life has obviously degraded over time, but as of 3 days ago it only lasts about 4 to 5 hours. Nothing has changed on my phone, and it easily lasted a full day before this.
I'm going to get a new battery out in as I think that's probably the issue, but thought I'd post here to see if it could be something else as it happened all of a sudden which I find odd.
Thanks
Phone battery doesn't last longer. It will degraded as it gets older. Change the battery it might be good to go.
Ya 98% sure that's it, I'm going to bring it in tomorrow for a new battery, just weird that it went form lasting around 12 hours to pretty much 4 overnight. I've never had a battery degrade so rapidly before. Would just suck to spend $100 that could go towards a new phone on a battery if that's not it.

Maybe try to do hard reset, and try using it for time being. If the issue still persist, changing the battery it's the only option
That's actually a great idea, didn't even think about that.
Thanks for the help.
