Hi, May I ask you how do you manage to get 6-8 SOT because I have the phone since a week with global ROM installed and I get around 4 hours ( the same I had also before with Chinese ROM)

4 hours is reasonable, person with 6-8 hours SOT will highly likely have different usage to you.....
Turn brightness down, install another kernel, don't use high demanding apps as much, close and turn things off when not using, use power saving apps etc
I can't believe that my mi mix 3 has only 3200mah battery

Any special settings to get this SOT?

Solid Black wallpaper.
50-75% brightness
I also had battery issues. Sas barely.using phone and in half a day telephone asked for.charging. whaat i did was disxharge to shut down then charge to 100% without turning on the phone. It helped a lot. Ove read aomewhere that this method is food once a year for phone battery because it helps to calbrate the energy levels in the battery.
Also it.is good. to use as dark pixels.as u can becausw.the.brighter the more.energy ia going to be used.
Also disable.services you dont need(wifi,gps,mobile data,nfc, bluetooth background processes, anything thhat is using your battery energynto.work.
With advices in this.thread you can prolong your battery by like 40%. Can confirm that it.helped me.
Just do.some reasearch on enerfy saving in a smartphone.

I've got mine for around 3 days and the battery don't last even half a day, it usually lost 10% in 2h. while in idle, I have AoD, Bluetooth and data, but I'm quite sure that it's not normal.

I have MIUI 10 Global Stable, last update.
In the meantime I turned off AoD and now it's fine, I've found out that the screen never turn off even when inside the pocket.
I was able to get 6 hours of sot
I recommend disabling the option to use adaptive battery, at least it improved here after I deactivated it.
On PE I was able to get 8 hours of SOT right now I'm testing out AEX seeming it was March security patch I'll keep you guys updated on it
Edit: same with PE around 8 hours of SOT

Just browsing facebook, reddit, email every now and then, I just figured with 3000mah battery i'd be getting 4.5-5 hrs sot , my nexus 5, with its 2300 mah, was getting 3 hours of sot, thats main reason I upgraded, could my battery be bad? or is this normal.. when I look online most ppl get 4 1/2 - 5 hours, ofcourse thats coming from the initial reviews an ppl running kitikat and stuff, just like to know what everyone else is getting w basic useage, no gaming/video streaming

I have never got more then 3-4 hours of SOT on my G2, i've used it for almost 2 years now. There were occasions where i got 5 hours of SOT, but those were exceptions(On Wifi, with very low brightness).. But then I'm a heavy user - lots of apps installed, around 2 hrs of music on my daily commute, Lots of time on G+/Instagram/Twitter/FB & 1-2 hours of calls. This combined with flashing of new ROMs every month or so. People posting 4-5 hours of SOT usually have lots of options disabled - Reduce brightness settings to lowest, Sync background data disabled, GPS disabled, On WiFi all the time, etc..
@mistororange Anything more then 3 hours of SOT, while you are using your phone through 3g/4g networks is pretty good, in my opinion. Only if you see drastic reduction in your battery life, then you should worry.
OK, so lately on the forums it seems like everyone is desperate to achieve great battery life and SOT without actually need it , I'm not going to lie if I see that someone with the same device it's getting 2 or 3 hours of SOT more than me I will want the same thing for me ! But the question is , do I really need it ?
We all have different needs and goals with our phones for example there are people that use their phones has an accessory and other that really depend of them , but why are people so desperately to achieve the same result like others ?
In my case I can easily achieve 3 days of battery life with 4hours of SOT but I need to literally let the phone on table all day and sleeping , I feel like its way more productive to make my phone die in a single day but achieving a usage of 8-9hours of SOT.
What about you ? Would you rather extend your battery life and decrease usage or Increase usage and make it last less time ?
Because when other people have better battery than themselves despite similar usage. That mean there's something wrong or something unnecessary draining battery. So people asking for help and trying to achieve the battery life that they're supposed to get with their phone.
Need it or not, better battery life is always prefered.
For example
The phone may last a day before battery dies and pose no problem with daily life. But if it suppose to last 3 days with the same usage, who wouldn't worry? It mean they need to charging battery 3 times more often thus battery will wear out and die 3 times faster than normal. The phone battery that suppose to last 3 years may die in just 1 year.
I may exaggerated it a bit but that's what happen especially in long term when the effect add up.
And for your question at the end. I would say, I don't care. As long as the battery life is what it's suppose to be and I get to use the phone as I want.

People use their phone differently to others
I for one have a lot of widgets I bet most don't
I want mor SoT but want to have my phone last long, thats why I always thinking about battery cases, to get best of both world. Also I go for black themes, not so much push messages, power save on all the time, etc
It varies but to be honest the best person to test out what they need is the individual themselves. If I'm at home all day and I go from 3 days charge to 1 day charge and I am doing NOTHING different then there is an issue.
If I used to get 8 hours SOT over 24 hours and now I struggle to get 4 hours SOT over 24 hours with similar usage, then there is an issue.
More battery life = more SOT
I get 8 hours sot with 2 days use. Best of both worlds

I think it really has more to do with usage patterns than what apps you have. If I use my phone consistently for long periods of time and also leave it sitting for long periods of time, I'll get better SOT and standby time. Some weekends I can hit 8 hours of SOT. During the week when I'm at work, I do a lot more short quick checks of my phone, so my average SOT is about 4 hours and about 28 hours of total battery time because I'm waking my phone more often just to quickly check an email or text message.
Now, some apps can definitely affect battery life if they are constantly running in the background and keeping your phone from deep sleep.
Nowadays i dont worry..i charge everyday. Sometime twice on same day. The screen is beauty to look at.

Solid
Second day, almost 6hrs SoT and still 35% battery left.
Can we maybe also add what apps we're usually using (what apps use most of the battery)? This would be pretty interesting to know.
The sot's doesn't look really well. Or are you guys only played games? For a 4000mAh battery with Snapdragon 625 should be more possible.
Bit different, but I did an hour test of streaming youtube on WiFi (everything else closed, sync off, stamina off, etc) with medium brightness and medium audio through speaker.
It lost only 7%, so looking at 14 hours watching YouTube in this way
Pretty good I reckon.
In general use the couple of days I have had it the battery seems really good.
Edit... After a couple more days use my typical Screen On Time is approx 10 11 hours for general usage (mainly on WiFi)
Hi guys , this is what I've got in 2 days of use

Lol, I really am a light user, I've only charged it once in 7 days since the initial full charge. I get 5 days between charges so I'm loving the big battery, it's surprisingly light too.
11hr15m SOT. Coming from Pixel this is unbelievable.
3 days, amazing
Third charge. Stock system, running Octobre update.
Brightness set manually during usage, everything ranging from 5% to 100% when outside.

4-6h SOT with 120Hz adapative and QHD+ (adaptive)
Drains a bit faster compared to my P20 Pro, but performance is outstanding
Yeah, I'm on average usage. Max can get 4.5 hours SOT only. With fhd+ 120hz
i'm very worried about it now... i haven't done 3-4 cycles yet (2nd at the moment), but i'm on 4-5 hours sot with mostly being on wifi at the moment.. which is worrysome.
I get about 3-5h with Resolution and refreshrate at adaptive
Yup that sounds about right. I'm on mobile data today. 2.5h sot with only 20% left.. So I'm returning the phone end of this month
.A24 increased it to 5-7h SOT for me
Full Res. and 120Hz. Heavy usage. Great Battery [emoji106]

According to the reviews, first couple of days the battery endurance is sub-par/average because the phone learns your habits and adapts slowly.
After a week or so you should be getting better results.
I'll report the stats when I get mine, should be soon.
Second run just under 50% battery web usage YouTube Instagram .. seems decent

Mine is looking very decent so far.
3rd cycle, 93% -> 4%, 5h 3min SOT (total time 23 hours) with 1 hour of taking photos and videos and rest normal usage (streaming via mobile data etc.)
Well just cleared my first week average tops around 5 ish hours generally.

You should not drain your phone to single digit numbers. Don't also charge beyond 85%.
This is what Battery Scientists say.

You might be right , however how realistic is it do as suggested in the real world ??
Is that something you practice yourself ?
If I were to do that I would be wiping the best part of 2 hours sot of my device which is impractical.
Hello everyone, I have a 2.5 year old RN7 running the latest version of LineageOS (Android 11) and I'm struggling to get more than 5 hours of screen on time, and I have to charge my phone every day. Below is a screenshot I took a few days ago of the battery usage from 100 to 3%.

This is weird because there doesn't seem to be any particular app that's draining battery and when I first got my phone and was running MIUI 10 and 11 I had no issues reaching 8h of SOT and I remember I charged my phone every 2 days. Could this be an issue with the ROM?
Thank you very much!

I did. Auto brightness is always off and I set my brightness right in the middle except when I'm in the sunlight. This is yesterday's battery usage.
In this case it kinda seems like Plex was draining a lot of battery for some reason, but I almost never use plex and I always get around this SOT vs the 8-10 some people show here with their RN7. I'm considering switching back to miui to see if that fixes it but I'd rather leave that as a last resort.

I see, thank you for the link. I'm really not sure about the SOT I got right when I got the phone and I was running MIUI, but what I do remember clearly is that I could reach the end of the day with maybe with 60% and I was able to charge my phone only every 2 days. Now that's not the case anymore.
For sure 5H 30M SOT still a very good value for an 2,5 years old battery.
