My battery is acting very strange because soon as its fully charged within a few seconds after unplugging it drops to 99% straight away without me touching it. Anyone know if that is normal or a faulty battery? I've been using my Note 2 before upgrading to Note 3 but never seen this quick drop before :crying:

Probably a calibration issue

Even when it says 100% let it be on charge for 5 10 mins. Then u might see the difference.

Sorry... My Note 3 doesn't do that.
It stays at 100% for like 2 hours of light use then drops to 99% after a while.
The shortest I have seen my Note 3 stay at 100% is like 30 minutes. Cuz I was playing Real Racing 3
Thanks for the reply lads, I'II give it a few more charges to see if its goin to improve it but I suspect its a faulty battery.

Hello everyone .
I am currently a Note 2 owner and I skipped upgrading to note 3 as it did not seem such a big upgrade to me plus all the goods <software> was brought to me by the devs of the Eteam . Was willing to upgrade to Note 4 but then Edge came along and now thinking of getting one of these frontier devices.
The problem that I see from the forum is the battery life in this device , I can consider myself a power user and I do get in average of 4 to 5 hours of screen time on the 2 year old Note 2, anyone coming from Note 2 can shed some light regarding this issue as I am so used to have more than just 4 hours of screen time and that is a compromise I am not willing to make since I consider this am upgrade , is Edge worth or better get a Note 4 ?
Thank you in advance.

Here's the thing, note edge/note 4 has double the screen resolution as your note 2, and the edge has a battery 100mah less than the n2. Granted the processor can give you plenty of standby time, but screen on time won't be as good as you currently have it. You can always carry a spare battery, since it's a Samsung.

I thought the new screens are more power efficient <25 %> compare to the 2 year old tech on the Note 2.
So with a Note 4 would be also the same issue you say ?

I had the Note 2 and it was not exactly a stellar performer in SOT from what I recall. You won't notice much difference going to the Note4 or Edge in that regard. Maybe a slight improvement. But the screen quality and performance will more than make up for it. Plus the new fast-charging capabilities are pretty effective.

Ultra power saver mode is a plus... going from note 2 to 3 to edge... its really a notable difference...

You can get the Ultra power saver mode too in custom roms but I am asking in identical conditions, which of the 2 has longer screen time , it makes no sense to me to use a 1000 usd device in black and white just bcs of the battery .

You can't compare the note 2 and note 4 or Edge as apples to apples. The processor alone on the Note 4 is more efficient. And if you get the T-Mobile variant you'll get root and can do greater control of things that eat battery.
But even the stock versions allow you to at least disable most of the bloat or apps you won't use thereby stretching the battery life out.
I have both the note 4 and note edge and get at least a full day on them. I consider myself an average user doing primarily email, music, web and some gaming (temple run 2 is my addiction) and I get at least 4 hours of screen time with about 25-30% battery left by the time I go to bed.
I picked up the Edge after having a Note 2 from release. I see a massive battery life difference for the better. I had replaced the battery in my Note 2 twice, and in it's prime with Ditto Note flashed, I was pulling almost a full day if not a full day of heavy use. Since picking up the note, I've been getting home from work with atleast 30% left. Actually, I don't think I've had a low battery notification since I picked it up. Looking forward to rooting, but out of the box...I'm impressed Samsung.
OMG N2 to N-edge
YOU WILL LOVE IT, I cant put it down. The phone drinks battery but purchased 2 extra batteries with portable charger. When you buy the phone samsung gives you 50% off all accessories. Well worth it, I loved the N2 and the N3 wasn't enough to upgrade off contract. N-Edge AWESOME:laugh::laugh::laugh::silly::silly::silly::victory::victory::victory:
And as an added bonus, the edge has 'adaptive charging' which allows you to go from 0%-50% in 30 minutes. That combined with 'quick charge 2.0' and swappable batteries, you should be good to go.

This was SOT of my Note 2 when battery was new.
More than 9 hours on one charge.
When I hear you guys telling that I need to carry a spare battery with me or that the supercharger does 50 % in 30 min , I simply get scared.
Of course I will root and debloat the device but .............
Still sitting on a fence about getting this awesome device or not.
Thank you all for the feedback.
Maybe someone will come out with an extended battery that will last all day? At least I hope they do.

Same situation. Same comments. I'm on the att varient. I heavily modified my note 2 and frankly I'm OK with no root for now. Very happy with my upgrade.
I switch from a Note II to the Note Edge a few days ago and I love it! The only thing I'm missing is root... Ordered the spare battery charging kit just like with the Note II using the 50% off coupon. do iT!
I'm in the same boat.... but want an exynos version. ...

You'll receive a 50% off coupon code once you register your device with Samsung. It's a one-time use only... Hope that helps!
My Note 3 has about 15% better battery stats than my Note 2. The Note 4 from what I can tell is about the same as my 3 but that's with the higher res screen. My guess is that the Edge will be about the same as the 2, at least that's what I'm expecting anyway.
Now only those with an edge could attest to this but if you use your edge screen wisely to skip all the full screen on 10 sec checks of whatever wouldn't that save bat in the long run. If you can quickly edge through your notification without turning the whole thing on that should save you lots by the end of the day.
Hi all, I have recently experience overheating problems in my S5 and my battery last 4 hours at most, I've read that this maybe happening after Lollipop update but I've update mine like 3 weeks ago and never had this issue until yesterday. Do you know what to do?.
Regards.
Hello
For more than a month I bought the note 7 and almost immediately I noticed that the battery didn't last as the others said ...
If I use it very little it makes me 2 and a half days if I use it normally as 1 day.
I'm fed up because I can't do anything with this phone, I only installed whatsapp and I just didn't activate the GPS in my account ..
Screen light is low
Can anyone help me? There is a solution?
Has anyone solved the problem?
Thanks
Ps I have already done 4 reset has not helped at all, sometimes I google play sevices and frameworks that consume 10% to 30% ...
Dude are you complaining that your battery life lasts between 1 to 2.5 days? What are you expecting?
