S7 Edge battery life.. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

Hey all. I have an S7 Edge. I keep it in performance mode and with that I keep the brightness bumped up to full. I have the AOD turned off but have night clock on. Most of my phone usage is surfing the net, videos, Facebook. Rhis is a shot of my battery life and I'm wondering if this is on par with everyone else.

5+ hours of SOT with full brightness and in performance mode sounds pretty good.

Your stats are better than the crappy drainage I've been having. In Performance mode to boot as well. Wtf

Thats about what I get.. And I have Bluetooth and other things always on.... BUT i have dark background and dark icons and when possible dark settings in apps to.

Mediocre Battery Life on Galaxy S4

So I had my phone for a little over a year already and everything is stock. While my phone has not had any battery drain issues or at least I'm not aware of, I find its battery life to be quite bad recently.
I'll like to know if this is normal for other S4 users like you and if my problem is because my battery is old and dying off or there's some other things going on with my phone. My brightness is always at 57% with auto brightness off.
Here are some screenshots on my battery usage according to my phone..

From the screenshots above I am barely even able to squeeze 5 hours of usage time from my phone and I think that's quite unacceptable. Also if I were to plug my phone out at 100% and listen to some tracks, within 15mins the phone will at be 90-93%. My usage isnt also that heavy and I shall call myself a light to medium user.
Do you guys think this battery usage results are normal?

Phone not sleeping/entering doze. Crazy standby drain.

Hi all, my exynos variant of s7e is experiencing crazily high standby drain. I don't remember seeing this kind of drain during the first few weeks of getting the phone.

I did a test to show, phone unplugged at 100%, left on table without using. ~12hrs later. whopping 60% gone. It's only the 3 processes you see, nothing more.
Anyone have the same problem? Any idea how to find the cause? Used to have great battery life. It's not normal right?
Have a look at these threads (which have been right under your nose in Q & A )
How many of you experiencing high android system battery drain?
A temporary fix for battery drain
Post your battery life!!!
Mine was doing that also, so I did a factory reset and I didn't use smart switch to add my apps and stuff. Its been sleeping beauty since. I know its a pain to reset, but was worth it.

You've been running a lot of apps that drains battery and your standby drain is especially high for some reason
3-4 sot isn't out of the ordinary but you could get a lot more

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then thats the average usage for a s7 edge. Actually i do get almost 4-5 hours sot til the end of the day with 15%. Is that ok?

LOS A2017U Battery stats

I'm trying to understand some battery stats. Lately in the past month I've noticed that my battery life has not been good. Certain Google apps like YouTube, Photos, and at times Play Music will cause high battery drain with minimal use. I've tried clean flashes of LOS and I'm on the default LOS kernel. My screen brightness is set to auto and 50%. Each charge cycle I get less than 4 hours of screen on time. I keep WiFi and Bluetooth on at all times but I still feel my battery life should be better.
Anyone have some suggestions or ideas or am I getting the best out of this phone for the way I use it?
See screenshots of battery stats.
As you can see at about 50% battery used, the Photos app used 7% battery without being on for about 3 minutes....that doesn't sound right to me...

How's the Screen on Time on your Moto G7?

Excellent. I guess I'm talking more about general battery life but I usually have my screen at least mid level. And I stream Pandora to Bluetooth. Video streaming is good too. I think the moto g4 (my last phone) has the 3000mAh battery too but this phone lasts way better. And it's easy to get to if it needs replacing.
