This is thread is to post the battery life that you are getting on the phone. Please post your screen shots from the power menu. This is not a contest of who can get the longest screen time. It is purely to show what kind of battery life you get and some tips and tricks to get a little more juice.
How do I take a screenshot? Brightness 10 to 30 %. So far 10% mobile, 60% wifi browsing, the rest in standby with mobile off, was waiting for a new sim. 22 hours and 10% battery life left. continuous wifi browsing looks like at least a solid 10 hours judging by the way the graph drops. Very impressed. My htc Sensation dies after 4 hours.

I don't know guys I'm not that happy with my battery life, it seems like the battery life with my note 1 was way better, almost one and a half times better, is it everyone out there or do I have a faulty device, other than the battery life, I've fallen in love with a note all over again

Mine is just nuts!!!! In a very good way!
My s3 gives me 5 hours screen time, I got so far 50% battery left and have done 4.5 hours screen green time already!!?!?!!!??? Wow!
Someone show me how to put images up here
I think battery life is really impressive. I got a little over 10 hours of screen time out of it.
With normal everyday usage I might get throught 2 days without charging or one day with a good reserve.

People who are getting bad battery life probably forgot to charge the phone to 100% before the first boot, which harm significantly the poor battery.

Not true, it doesn't matter at all. Just use it, batteries nowadays are smart batteries and they will calibrate them selves.

If it doesn't matter at all why did samsung bother writing a warning in the quick start guide ? (Yeah some of us do read those things)

This is correct only for old batteries...
Looks pretty good! I was worried about battery life because of the large screen size of the device, but it looks like the large battery has made a suitable buffer for this :]
Thanks for the pics everyone!

This is about correct! Have used one hours screen time and have 90% left
Can, t post screen shots this evening but I'll post what I know of my battery life so far:
From a full charge I have had 3 hours 47 minutes of continuous screen time and 61% battery left. I've had quite a lot of network activity installing 144 appps, restoring data, answeing email, and reading here in this forum. I'd also been playing with the camera and watching recorded files. It's looking like I could see close to 10 hours of this sort of use. Considering my normal use for my phone and/or tablet I'll be able to go 2 days on a full charge. With a charger on hand at bedtime I'm not likely to ever run the battery down past 30% (rough estimate).
Color me impressed!
Here is my Note II battery usage. which I posted in another post already
First day
Out of box without charging at all. Used it from around 49% to 3% for around 5 hours+ Screenshot attached.
View attachment 1372082 View attachment 1372083
Second day
The night before charged from 3% to 100% with my Note II power on for around 9 hours. Then unplugged and heavy using from 100% to 10%, it stayed more than 14 hours. I am saying this is pretty good juice. Screenshot attached.

I takes about 10 hours, the lesson download much battery? when I go to sleep I lose almost 15% of battery. Any solution?: (
Battery life is terrible.
I refuse to do what my friend does:
Turn vibrate off
Turn screen brightness to lowest
Phone is always connected to Edge - unless he's using the Internet - then he switches back to Edge
Syncs his email every 15 minutes (pull not push!!!)
Always 'freeing ram' and exiting apps
His life sucks.
I am the opposite. Full brightness, 4g , push mail for my 4 emails, exchange server (email and calendar) for work and so on.
I manage this by always having a spare battery that I charge with my battery charger dock lol.
Will be doing the same thing once I can get one for my S4
I know, so far it's been below expectations for me too - I ordered a portable energy bank from Amazon this morning, and I guess I'll just carry it around with me from now on.. What a shame - the phone is extremely powerful too..
Install gsam battery monitor and let it monitor your phone and see what is causing wake locks. Also let the battery go through 3-4 battery cycles before you start comparing battery life.
That'd weird. Isn't the 9500 or the 9505?
My battery exceeds my expectations by quite a lot. Best battery I've had on a smartphone so far, and I've had a few.
Where my 920 died, this one still has 50-70% remaning.
Thats with push mail, air view, air gestures, wifi, mobile data, auto brightness, screen rotation, sync, gps and multiwindow on constantly.

Seriously? how much is the battery life? can post some pics?
I am also curous how many hours does it take for the battery to reach 15% and how much screen on time do you get. Please post a few screenshots!
After a day i have like 30% left. Screen on time is about 2h.

battery life is not a issue here I don't think I can get to 15% easily most day I do not but I will try to get some pics posted after an all day use no promises I manage to be busy a lot lol.
I am constantly using it.

I get similar battery life as well. Sometimes 4 ton6 hours screen times
16 hour days
I found my battery life improved when I got rid of a poor quality 32gig media card and used another spare old16gig one.
I also dumped corrupted mp3 files and videos and got new ones.
I think poor sd card quality and bad mp3 files are partially responsible for lower battery life.

just got mine
first charge cycle
4 hours on screen
total 8 hours
15% left
not very good but i think it will get better

So far with battery saving on it seems that nothing changed... Will test it further with daily use. But battery life here, even before using the app was not bad by any means.

it is impossible to get over 5 hours on screen time.
I have tried with 3 different xperia Zs. the most i have ever got was 4.5 hours. the average is between 3.5 - 4 hours.

for $hits and giggles.
like i've said, i've tried 3 different XZs, from different locations and different batches.
all are identical in battery life.
i.e., terrible. 3.5 hours battery life for on screen time is pathetic.
i'm doing nothing wrong.
its fine when on standby, but as soon as the display is on, watch the battery drain like a motherf*cker. this is even with brightness down to bare minimum, 4G off, nfc off, bluetooth off, etc all stock firmware, not rooted.
I
checking battery stats, it always the screen as the biggest drain.
and like i said, i've tried 3 different XZs from 3 different places and with enough time between them to know they cannot all be from 1 faulty batch.
the battery life on the XZ sucks.

its not hard...turn mobile sync off brightness to zero and always use wifi, only text and call...voila easy..but to do such a thing is like not using a smartphone.
@samxool @G1_enthusiast
Haha you guys are funny.
My brightness is %40 adaptive. Wifi On 3G on Stamina Off. (Wifi used mostly at home)
5+ hours of screen time as seen on screenshot.
I used Facebook and Twitter app all that time long.
I am one of those who are following and supporting the resistance at Gezi Park İstanbul. Thats why I was on twitter most of the time when I took the screenshot.
BTW. I dont have any special settings I use greenify for useless apps thats all.

and how much time did you spent at home using wifi? you do know if you use 3g the whole time there is no way in hell to get 5 hrs screen time with the above setting you have.
I want to see the inside of the graph where it break down your usage guaranteed it fills with wifi for most of the time.

My friend I said it is mostly wi-fi because I was at home browsing web, twitter and facebook.
I was outside for a short time which includes a few minutes of video taking and some photos of protests outside.
So this includes some time of under the sun activity too although it is not long.
I am not claiming my average usage is 5+ hours. I can say this was one of my experiences which I happen to see more then 5 hours maybe if I waited for %1 it might be 6 hours?
If I go to work use the phone less etc than my screen time of course drops. Phone eats battery when idle too as you can guess. But if you use the phone non stop like me I am sure you will see 5 hours and more.

Hello everybody I just got my Note 3 N9000Q this Sunday. I loved the phone except few things.
Firstly, i unlock my phone via pattern however, it sometimes does not recognize the pattern (it does not even show that red thing meaning i did wrong). Few times it even did turn its screen off while i was trying to unlock my phone (which neans it does not feel i am touching). Other than latter no issues with touch screen. Did anybody came across the same problem?
Secondly, my battery dies rather too quick. For example, 2 hours 27 minutes 10 secs and down to 86% battery (even dropped 1%when the screen was off in around 10 minutes). Backlight (brightness) is at -5 and screen is on for only 48 minutes. Anybody has any idea?
Thank you in advance.

My Note 3 model is N9005. having some battery drain too.. culprit seems to be Google Services on battery usage list
I noticed the battery drain yesterday aswell, google services seem to draw more power than it should.
I read some old threads about the issue (general on android, not on this specific phone) and they recommended turning off location services alltogether in the settings.
I did that last night and so far it has only drained 6% in 4h15m
Amazing battery life out of my note 3 I love it

Disable backup to Google in Backup and Reset solved my huge battery drain. BBS showed that it was continuously keeping the phone awake and disabling resolved the drain.
I have just disabled smart stay and my battery lasted more than 1 day from 75%. Tho after turning quick glance on it started to drain a bit faster (atill better than before).
The pattern thing annoys me tho. I suspect it is something about software. Also noticed a metallic sound on phone calls (time to time) like a metal cable got loose and hitting the ear piece. I will give my phone to service next week i guess and ask for a change.

No. I never turned on battery saving on my Note 2 and it lasted way more than 1 day. Same goes for this guy

Can you give more information on how you are achieving this ? It looks like you have smart rotation on too - I got 14 hours yesterday with 3 hours of screen time, but its not enough to last me a whole day. I turned it off today to see how it will do, but as I just posted in another thread, i had a huge problem with the battery jumping percentage today (39% to 1% then to 20% after I took it out)
Do you have auto backup turned off as some of the other people have suggested?

What kind of stats are you getting now ? I am tempted to turn this off, but I feel like it's kinda important especially if I'm always adding new people's numbers ...
Twmade said:
Can you give more information on how you are achieving this ? It looks like you have smart rotation on too - I got 14 hours yesterday with 3 hours of screen time, but its not enough to last me a whole day. I turned it off today to see how it will do, but as I just posted in another thread, i had a huge problem with the battery jumping percentage today (39% to 1% then to 20% after I took it out)
Do you have auto backup turned off as some of the other people have suggested?

Two days. My brother has also bought the same phone, and he got roughly the same stats as me. We both have the International version from TW (SM-N900). Thoughts?

Hi,
Now that the Note Pro 12.2 has been out for a while now, what kind of battery life are you getting?
How much Stand By and On-Screen Time are you getting?
charge time
I would also appreciate if people can share how long it's taking to charge from 0-100%. Thanks.
I used mine quite heavily on Friday night and Saturday. Probably 8 hours in total. I still had 65% battery left. I did root and removed a lot of bloatware.
From my usage so far, looks to be about 6-8hrs screen on time.
This isn't very specific I realize but battery life seems considerably better than my old nexus 10 and recharging is also much faster.

What about charging it?
It is time for my old original LTE tab to go.I want an LTE, but like my old tab, Verizon is picking it up, and development on the verizon version might be sparse.My factory Tab, will only charge with a certain voltage. The Devs wrote a script to override that on it.
Does it charge in the car? If so, what amp is it? Do you have to have special charger or will it work on one of the 2 amp chargers, say for an Iphone? Have you tried it?
Thanks
standby is fantastic; as is video watching (dont' have exact total time but I think 3 hours of video watching used approx 30% battery).
-
however this game I was playing, symphony of eternity, really kills the battery. 2 hours used approx 45% (wish I had exact figures). Mind you the game has gotten old but I want to finish it (I play a few hours on trips - so started it approx 1.5 years ago; but finally near the end).

I think it may be better to specify which version of the device you are using before mentioning the hours. I think I heard that the LTE version has better battery management?

So far very impressed with the battery
Sent from my SM-P900 using XDA Premium HD app
I have the sm-p905 LTE version and i’m very impressed with the battery life so far.
on time screen that the tablet actually was on is right now 9h59m and battery still on 20%
watched in the 10 hours about 4h15m video's
transferred about 6 gb files with wifi direct
transferred about 19 gb files from my portable hd to the tablet with usb 3.0
then browsing, facebook, chat, ....
i must say all the apps i don’t use i have turned out permently.
4G was always turned on during the session, total time off the ac now is 1 day an 1h
my device isn’t rooted.
when the battery is completely empty, i’ll charge it and let you know how long it takes. First time i charge it .
I'm also very impressed with my Note 12.2 battery... I would say it can do 1 hour screen time per 10% of battery. I replace my third generation Ipad with this tablet... I the only thing iPad is better right now is battery life on stanby... Apple has done an excellent job on this side because it's way better on the iPad, even if I keep the sync on all the time for emails, contacts, calendar and other apps.
On the Notepro 12.2, if I keep the wifi off while on stanby, it's good (not excellent)... but if I keep it on all the time, I have to charge my tablet every 2 days. While it's off, I can get 3-4 easily when my regular weekday usage.
I've watched a complete film of 2 hours film on my tablet a few days ago... streamed from my Plex server to the Android Plex app on the tablet... and I lost around 20% of battery only... which is excellent.
By the way, I have the wifi only version (Exynos CPU).

That's a bit odd. I am not using mine much at all at the moment, maybe half an hour a day and it's now on day 8 and still 30% left. My Wi-Fi is off when in sleep and I don't turn it off when not using it.

The battery is good, if I dont use it, I just turn off to save battery. Otherwise i need to charge everyday (wifi on, sync, games, web, no sleep mode), now I can use few days in a row on single charge, depends on what I'm doing on it. This is not a smartphone/cellphone, so he dont need to be everytime on
Discuss your battery life here.
Anyone have any early reports on battery life
A user on Reddit has one and did a first rundown.
7.5 hrs sot on overall 8.5 hrs on a first charge.
Still to be seen how the standby is, but all reports look for it to be better than expected which is good news. Also he doesn't notice any ram issues. First impressions are good.

Damn fine if you ask me. Better than my note 4. I'm surprised as hell. I never believe the improved efficiency and optimization stuff but somethings working.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk
I personally am not that worried about run time on the battery. My Note 4 has great battery life for me and I would expect the Note5 to be good. Quick charge really makes a big difference and the recent introduction of quick charge external battery packs means that I will not have to really worry that much about battery life. Others may have a different point of view.
One thing that really worries me is the internal battery. I have owned the Note2, 3, and 4. I have had to replace the battery on both the Note2 and Note3 when the original battery failed. I give my old phones to other family members and sooner or later the batteries always start to fail. On the Note3 it took a little over a year and a half. Probably about the same time period on the Note2. If you go to youtube you can watch some videos that show you how to replace the battery on the S6. It looks like a miserable project. Nothing I want to worry about. Finally, I am personally offended by the throw away connotations of a smartphone with an internal battery. With a glass screen protector and a case, these phones can still be like new after a year or so of use. It just seems wrong to build a product that you know is going to fail for as trivial a reason as the battery.

Wow. Great news.
What apps do you have installed/downloaded and which ones did you disable? Do you have all the Spen stuff enabled?
Can you show a screenshot of your apps battery usage?
That's actually amazing, with just a 3000mah battery. See, don't judge by the specs people

No movies here dude. And you don't have to come in here and defend your note 4. Still have one myself. Just trying to show some battery life stats for people that are considering the 5. If that's not you then please move on.

So overall is your impression that the Note 5 has better battery life than your Note 4 ? That would be impressive.

According to the images they posted - They had 8hr 42mins of total battery life
The screen accounted for 24% total battery - Android System 21% etc.. Not sure how screen can be 24% and still be 7hrs of a total 8hr 42 on battery ??
Fantastic if proves to be accurate though.

This kind of results is what you got when you basically just display a black image and do almost nothing.

Just used the phone more. You'll see that the standby time went down as the SOT went up. I'm thinking it'll settle in around 22 standby and 6-7 screen on. Which is better then anything I've had for awhile. I have the note 4 and s6 active right now. And had a s6e. This phone will get me a little more then even the active I think.

Question though, could it be your note 4's battery is old?
If they were both brand new then it would be a fair test.
What do you think?
