My impressions about GS3 battery

I have bought GS3 2 days ago from Dubai the GS3 is amazing, this phone is the smoothest android phone I have ever used.
The only problem I have noticed with the battery it never reaches 100% it only reaches 99% when trying to get a full charge
So far I get with this battery nearly 8 hours and 30 mins to 9 hours with heavy usage, my phone is still unrooted so I didn't have a chance to try any juice defending apps.

I dont think anything is wrong with that....mw galaxy s doesnt reach 100% eighter...i think it has something to do with android protecting battery from overcharging

That isn't too impressive. However, you can expect the battery life to improve quite a lot after about 4-5 full charge cycles. Thanks for posting your experience

When I was on stock roms with gs1 I had the same problem with 99% but cm7 and cm9 goes to 100%

Yes indeed, batt stats plz

Without more stats 8hrs doesn't mean a lot..... 8hrs gaming would be impressive though

Thanks for sharing your experience. Out of all my experience i can tell after few charges you would get a better battery life, up to 15% increase.

guys dont forget,if you need better battery life your first charge cycle should be a complete one without any interruption.

for a full charge cycle do i have to discharge the battery to 0% or just 1-5%

should that be with the phone off as well? i have read that as well.
thanks for sharing. 8.30 hours of heavy use is respectable(if you can define heavy use it will be better though), but i had managed to get that with HOS on heavy use, even less so im confident it should be fine!
So confident i have already pre ordered a second battery as well! haha

I have been using the phone heavily since the past 12 hours which includes constant connection to 3g or wifi networks, app downloads, navigation for about half an hour, half hour of calls, 20+ texts, about an hour of streaming YouTube to my tv using twonky and I'm still at 35%.
And since the device is new so all my friends and colleagues have been checking out its sound, video and camera.
I haven't even been through my first full cycle yet and the results for me are pretty satisfactory so far.
Also it was connected to the car Bluetooth for about 45 mins and I had 15 mins of calls during that time.

Urban legend...
"It is important to condition (fully discharge and then fully charge) the battery every two to three weeks. Failure to do so may significantly shorten the battery's life (this does not apply to Li-Ion batteries, which do not require conditioning). To discharge, simply run your device under the battery's power until it shuts down or until you get a low battery warning. Then recharge the battery as instructed in your user's manual."

Moderate usage ...

Guys, the screen on time is the one we really need to see. It's the screen that really impacts the battery life on an amoled phones. Please try to include those in your screen shots.
Take this screen shot I just took from my GN for example. May look like great battery life but what you don't see is that the screen has only been on for 35 mins, so it's nothing at all special.

Anyone else getting ridiculously GOOD battery life

1 day 1 hour+ and it still was showing 100% battery life and discharging, with about 45 minutes of on screen time.
I thought the battery gauge/meter was frozen at 100% and was about to reboot it, but it finally dropped to 99%.
Granted it was idle a lot and I usually turn off wifi overnight, but still pretty impressive IMO.

Nope lol what was the 45 minutes of usage?

i took mine to my inlaws and used it for a chunk of the weekend and never charged it. I got home sunday evening and i still had 40%. But i am not running stock either... so that may be a difference.

75% right now, I am at 1d 23h 14m 56s on battery with screen use at 1h 40m 24s, rooted but stock ROM.
at this rate, it would go 8 days with about 7 hours of screen time.
it never used to be this good. something is not right, lol.

Well tablets do tend to have good battery no cellular radio (wifi only) so no texting or calls, my ipad last a week without charged over 10 hours screen time. Now my nexus 7 I'd taking the hit because is new, I'm not getting rid of the ipad it has a low good games for my son and movies as well, 16gb is no enough sometimes, so I just keep important apps for my n7 and ipad as a backup, I'm only taking n7 to work now I got wifi there and thetering so that helps

I think all Android users faced some issues with battery status..
Ex. When the phone charged 80% if restart it the battery might decrease by 5% each time... while when it's less than 10% each time the battery decrease from 1-2% max ! ... that's really not reasonable
In addition, when i charge my phone 8 hour the battery would stay 17 hour.. while if i change it until it's got 100% charged "according to battery status" it wouldn't stay on more than 10 hours!!! Wipping battery and other solutions also didn't help by the way !!!!

I will try that

I had a similar problem and never solved it. My battery typically lasts 32 hours new. After a few weeks it went to 16. Frustrated I let it "die" to find that it actually continued to run for 16 additional hours literally at 0%.
Unplugging the battery fixed it for that current charge cycle but upon recharging it went back to its old ways.
I eventually went through the trouble to purchase an OEM replacement and further open up my Razr M to replace. Things were great for another couple of weeks until the same exact problem happened again.
Frustrated I go back and forth between my Inc 4g and my Razr M depending on if I need a reliable battery read (traveling, etc). I like the Razr M so much I might just buy another and hope it doesn't crap out like this one, but then again there is probably a new season of Droid devices coming in a few months.

have you tried one of those battery calibration apps? they require root though.
as for me, my battery yesterday showed 34% while in the system. but then when I booted in TWRP recovery, it said my battery was at 22%.

Can't you wipe battery stats in cwm too? That could help...

Here mine from the maxx, Def could of gotten several more hours with the 16% left. This is about 3hrs of streaming Google music, watching a 10-15 3-5 min YouTube vid, and decent amount of web surfing, so I'd say moderate use over 2 days

Yeah I need to figure out timing and priorities here. The maxx still meets most of my needs.
If DNG support comes in lollipop(and this phone) then it may become very hard to justify an upgrade right now. I am 99% sure that the raws these cameras can produce will allow us to take very very good photos. I was checking the specs on this camera and it does actually support binning a raw image file.
The camera is really my only complaint and if I am being honest, the camera is currently quite good.

well for a former moto x user, this device could be less comfortable when hold it in hand

And, is it just me or someone else? I really hate the capacitance buttons, if it use a navigation bar i can simply just hide the button and use LMT to make my life easier, specifically on such large size of screen.

Its roughy the same size as the phone this forum is centered around which I can handle without trouble and actually consider to be ideal, some people seem to really hate capacitive buttons. I have a nexus with on screen buttons and I prefer having them off screen. To each their own I suppose.
I think that its targeted at a different type of user than the X.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Same here, the only negative about having capacitive button is that they can't be customized/ themed. But I'll take the extra screen real estate over that any day. The Turbo is a beast of a phone and I would love to have one. But I think I'll wait for the next generation phones running on 64-bit.

Well I love the idea of the Turbo but it MAY have same issue as the Droid 4 with ear speaker then gonna pass on it. Can't stand the idea if gaining root or even unlocked bootloader then lose it cause phone gets sent in for repairs and get an updated unrootable phone back. Happened with our Droid 4s twice luckily they came with bad ear speakers and the next 2 were old stock that we got root on.
But that's me not every one else.

Stopped by Verizon after getting a haircut. My XT1080M had significantly better 1X service (by over 5dbm) and slightly better LTE service.
With that said, the build quality of the turbo seems much better than the MAXX which is known for being a little creaky.

Yes, my maxx is creaky too And I even swapped out my original because of it, my gf who works at Verizon grabbed a ballistic nylon turbo and wow. It really is a great phone and I enjoy using it, but the more I use it the more I realize that there is nothing wrong with my maxx I'm having trouble justifying the upgrade.
