Am I naive in expecting insane battery life? What am I missing here? Why isn't anyone really talking about how this should be crazy amounts? Most phones are closer to 3000mah.
I know the 810 is a hog, but it's an amoled display, not 4k, the oneplus two is only 3300, moto pure is only 3000, z5 2900, note 5 is 3000 as well. I have to believe with marshmellow (fingers crossed) and 3450 with an amoled display that's only 5.7" this is going to be insane, like 2 days on light use insane???
I'm hoping for some pretty good things from the battery life, i've got the Nexus 6 currently and it lasts me a day and a half with about 4 hours screen on time ( which is fine for me in all honesty )
This has a smaller display and a bigger battery, lets not forget that " sensor hub " that will help idle time immensely if it works as advertised
+Doze
+App standby
I've got a good feeling its gonna be a goodun
and this is the main reason why im picking the 6p over 5x because i strongly believe this has to be a two day battery life, everything is lining up so very good.
I'm expecting great stand by time, but once that screen is on, battery is going to drop like a rock. This was the case with the Moto X Pure at least. I was afraid to turn on that screen, my battery stats show a straight line going down.

Since I had a Nexus 5, I won't hold out any hope for any sort of battery life.
I'll take what I can get.
Depents how efficient the display is.

It has a 2.5k display like most other flagships, and AMOLED is the display technology, it has nothing to do with the resolution.
Running dev Preview 3 I've gotten much better standby and battery life as a whole. While I don't expect much better life out of the box than I already have once it's tweaked with the right kernels etc it better be way better than my current gen especially to give up wireless charging....

The battery is gonna be INSANE! Huge reason why I went to the 6p ! The 6 on avg for me had 5 hours SOT so I can only imagine what this will be. I have the m9 right now and I cannot wait to ditch this thing. Battery is horrid on it
This the #1 reason I am getting this phone. The Note 5 has TERRIBLE battery for me as I'm a power user.
My S6E reminds me of my Evo 4G with WiMAX turned on. It's got to be better than the old school need to plug in everywhere feeling I have lately.

My pure has pretty bad battery life if the gpu gets used at all. Out of all the devices with the 808 in the same category the pure has by far the worst battery life for whatever reason.
The nexus p hopefully won't have as much of an issue.
Beware of radio signals... That leaks a lot too.
I like gsm endurance test as a review...moto x got 63 hours. Note 5 is a beast... So your if getting poor life on that... It's an app of signal issue. Try running off LTE and test.
I figure a good comparison is moto xpe. Stock almost, same size,qhd.
So factor in battery is 15% larger, Amoled should save 15 % (see note 5 Amoled vs moto x pure LCD) and marshmallow should save 15%. All that is being conservative. Let's say -5% for snapdragon 810 vs 808. So total 40% better than moto xpe. Which gets on average 3.5 to 4.5 sot time (ignoring the under 3 and over 6 which is usually tweaking or terrible signals)
So this should average at minimum 40% better. So at least 5 hours sot.....and max of 7?
Sounds reasonable. All of this was guessing while I await the phone

I have the Moto X Pure right now and it gives me about 4hrs SOT which I do not like.
My battery is almost dead by the dead i'm leaving work so I'm hoping for a little bit more.

I just returned my Moto X Pure, and I wasn't getting a minute over 3 hours SoT. I liked the phone at first but by the end of the two weeks, it went back. The MXP seemed to drain regardless of having the screen on, and I was on wifi basically 99% of the time.

I've been getting an avg of 4 everyday
The camera is very disappointing.
I'll be returning this every month with Amazon until I get the 6P.
I average 7-8h of SOT with my Z3, hope the 6p can beat that. That's my only complain compare to the Z3

wow that really is amazing.
I'd be happy with that.
So far from all the phones I've had, The OPO on KitKat had the best battery life.
I had wifi, bt and gps on all day and I'd have around 20-50% left before I went to bed.
Lollipop destroyed that :crying:
hello,
i ordered a moto x play two days ago and i will get my device today or tomorrow. Now i am not sure if i should upgrade to marshmallow. Regarding to some posts here the battery life seems to suffer from the update. Is this true? Do you have the same battery life with 6.0 as with 5.1.1 ? For me battery life is kind of crucial. I chose the moto because of the good battery.
I'd love to know your opinion.
Thanx in advance.
Battery life seemed a bit lower on 6.0 than on Lollipop for a few days. Now, it's stabilized, and I'd say it's almost as good

No the battery performance hasn't gone down but has instead remained same or been better now.

It's been great for me. 7-8 hrs sot with stock kernel and now on track to get 10 with Squid kernel.
I get 10+ hours SOT . With stock mm.. dual sim and mobile data.
I usually play around with the autostarts app and titanium backup. I guess, i can root my device and i will then be able to optimize the phone i like with these tools.
Thanx for your answers. I still would like to get some more votes.
regards.
I think the only difference MM can make will be due to optimizing certain apps. Its sucha shame that google play services cant be optimized. I am finding its better than LP.
Offtopic - I had a S5 (g900h) with LP 5.0.1 stock and samsung had this optimization option which lead to an awesome battery life. This is why I believe that can be the only thing which can make it better
It depends on your usecase. If you are constantly on the phone, they won't differ much. If your phone is screen-off most of the time, Marshmallows Doze mechanism can save you a ton of battery life (assumping you jumpstart it with Naptime or similar). It could possibly be matched or even overcome if you REALLY fine tune a lollipop setup with Amplify, but from a technical standpoint doze is far better, because the OS controls when the device wakes up, not the apps themselves. Also, the most recent (best?) kernels will only be for MM.
Battery drains during standby mode. Overnight battery drops upto 3-5 % is it normal? I am on 5.1.1

2-3-4% is expected for 10 hour . see if location and wifi are turned on in advanced setting. it depends on the apps you are running. post screenshot.

That's absolutely great.
It means if 4 percent decreases in 8 hours it's about 1 percent in 2 hours. Me too has same result although in between 8 hours I took a 3 minute call and my alarm rung.

I can't find nothing about the battery life
Also very nice to know, how fast is the charging time?
Quoting Blurayagent over at the ZTE community:
"I read quick charge is good for 0-60% charge in 30 min. Greater than 60% is charged in normal mode. "
Take a look here

Have mine plugged into quick charge 3 24 watt power brick. It goes fast from 1-60%. Still testing though

Why not?
5h 45min screen on is pretty good considering it's a 2K display pushing many more pixels that the OP3.
1h 29m charge time isn't bad either considering the 4 phone that charged a bit faster all have smaller batteries to work with.
It better than most and more than acceptable to me.

The Quick Charge 3.0 speed is insane. 20% to 86% in less than an hour.
Yah the charge time is crazy fast, but daily battery life doesn't seem too good so far, I get constant battery drain
My battery life today was about 6:30 screen on with heavy usage, about 12 hours usage (from about 6:45 am-6 pm with a 1 hour phone call on speaker phone) very satisfied with battery life and charge time. Coming from moto x pure.
No issues at all with stock firmware other than no wifi calling and no unlocked bootloader.
Phone is much faster than moto x pure and much battery battery life.

That's promising. I'm planning to go with either the Axon 7 or the new Nexus Marlin to upgrade from my Moto X Pure. Battery life on the Pure is my biggest complaint. I can barely get 4 hours SOT. Most days are closer to 3. The Pure seems pretty quick to me though. I rarely have dropped frames so anything faster will be a bonus.
I really wish ZTE would confirm the status of the bootloader. I'm holding out in hopes they make an announcement soon. I'm also concerned I'll be annoyed with the Axon's MiFavor 4.0 ROM. I love how stock the Pure's OS is.
I'm on Verizon so the OP3 is a no-go for me. Although it sounds like Axon 7 owners on Verizon are having issues of their own. Hopefully the issues are just because the CDMA networks haven't approved the Axon 7 yet.
I'm getting constant battery drain on my new phone in UK.
It lost 21% of power doing nothing last night. I also had enabled power save settings.

My SOT is getting better. Achieving 6 Hours easily.
6h in 20h for 1440p screen is good but pls post some screenshots
Yeah, I noticed the battery life improved as the days wore on... Might be like when you install a new rom, you need to give it a week to settle before battery life stabilizes....
How the heck is everyone measuring SOT?? I don't see it in the stock battery stats. I'd like to avoid 3rd party apps to measure this. Am I missing something?
I don't personally have the Z Play but I just got it for my sister on my plan and its getting some really great battery life. it had 15% left but already had over 9 hours of SOT! granted she mostly watch's Youtube videos with checking Facebook every so often. what is everyone else getting?
First day of "normal" use, 3.5hrs of strava, zenwatch always connected
The battery life is absolutely insane. I'm so glad I got this little beast.
Yep, battery is great. Might even be better than the Moto X Play battery life.
13% CAN (depends on your settings, brightness etc) yield 2 hours SoT. Does with me
I'm officially impressed.

you have to enable System UI tunner, (press config shortcut on status bar for several seconds until theres a wrech besides it) or google it
Only the Verizon or better the international software shows the battery numbers left to the battery icon. If you have the retail version you can only make visible the numbers inside the icon

Got the phone a few days ago with Verzion, forgot to get the details of the power usage, all I got is the graph.
I use this phone a lot while working to take calls, playing music on my radio with Pandora while driving, and GPS. Wifi enabled, auto brightness, and GPS high accuracy.
Any idea why anyone would need to buy the battery pack Moto Mod when the stock battery lasts this long?

Moto X 2nd gen user reporting. I get 2-3 hours of screen time on my X2 which needs to be charge after 22-24 hours sometimes lesser than that. I keep all the features on, every sensor on. What can I expect? 5 hours SOT and 35 hours recharge cycle? Or even more with everything turned on?

Brothers, on marshmallow, while using music, whatsapp, messenger & occasional browsing for an hour my battery would lose 13-14% charge. A week ago i updated to nougat. And now my battery drains 16% in 58 minutes while using messenger & whatsapp only. And moreover after 30%, on marshmallow, battery drain rate was 1% in 3-4 minutes. Now it is 1% per 2 minutes.
I have noticed the same. I notice that my standby draining is much more.

I have exactly the opposite. Much better standby drain than MM. full charge lasts upto 40 to 48 hours.
The comments on GSM Arena show battery drain on Nougat is common issue.

I switched off the bluetooth and now my battery life is better. I have a xiaomi mi band 2 that's why i used bluetooth on my device.
Sorry bad english
Nope battery drainage is same in my handset but turbocharging is slightly affected.
