Amazing for me. Heavenly 7-11 hours of SOT ?? (mainly Youtube) but bare in mind I came from Lg v10 (2 hours at best
I got About 7 hour sot !
With gaming (clash royale, brawl stars and clash of clans)
Social media(Instagram,twitter, Telegram)
And Youtube
good sot here after adb debloat. near on par with my previous devis ( moto z play )
I get only 6 hours sot?? And yes I've made changes to the settings to optimize the battery do some units just ship with ****tier batteries?
No complains
In almost every review I saw/read of this phone I hear the reviewer complaining about the battery being worse than expected. In my experience with this phone and S8 before, SOT will slowly get better and after a couple of weeks, it will be at its best. I don't understand why this isn't noticed by those reviewers.
After about 10 days of use, I was surprised by almost 10 hours of SOT, just browsing and reading.

Amazing Battery Life!
Galaxy A50 Pro
To be honest, I bought this phone mostly because of it's screen on time! I usually get 7-8 hours SOT which I think is great! My LG G6 was a great phone, everything was awesome except the battery life! I would get 4-4.5 hours of screen on time, which was not enough! That's the reason I opted for Galaxy A50! 8 hours SOT with Super Amoled display was the sole reason!
[Galaxy A50] I use mobile data when I'm out of home, GPS is always on with the highest accuracy setting, manual brightness 40%-60%, always on display, AdGuard app, internet speed meter app running all the time! Most of time I use Chrome, Youtube, Netflix, Facebook, Twitter and some other apps.
Galaxy A50 Cons
There's few things that are terrible like Cellular Signal Strength is very poor comparing my other phones like Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro and LG G6! Mobile data really sucks! On screen fingerprint is way too slow! Even won't recognize always if you don't place your finger in the exact place of the screen! Oh man! It has been a real pain in the ass for me! I would like to get back my physical rear fingerprint from my previous phones! They are so fast and this on screen fingerprint is just crap!
Sometimes Wifi would stop working and you would probably scratch your head to figure out whats wrong! After diagnosing your router and internet connection, you would be so pissed to know that everything was just fine! Now you would reboot the phone! Bang! Wifi works again! :laugh:

Here's my second charge cycle. The first one was only 78% to 43% over a working day so no point posting that.
Not quite 8h SOT but I'm happy with this. Day's use included 24 minutes of continuously testing the camera.
Very happy with the sot.

Managed about 7 hours before the battery saver turned on.
About 30 mins playing games, 45 mins videos with high screen brightness and the rest using Chrome.

I've been on wifi most of the day. I took my phone off of the charger at about 610 this morning. I'd say it's pretty good so far.

I should've saved a screenshot last night, but I had just over 6 hours SOT with 16 hours off of the charger. That's with moderate use throughout the day with heavy use at night. I know “picture or it didn't happen". I will definitely take a screenshot at the end of the day to compare.

I sure hope that includes doing some kind of battery intense task like playing games otherwise that's pretty unimpressive. When my Pixel 2 XL was brand new 5 hours screen on time during non-battery intense things like browsing on wifi I could easily get that same 5 hours screen on time with 16 hours off the charger and still be at like 40-45%. It looks like the combination of bigger screen, higher resolution and smaller battery really makes a noticeable difference. Even more than I expected.
This is with mostly browsing and YouTube. I usually have more usage later at night. I also played a little Elder Scrolls Legends, which is very much a battery draining game.
As I do more testing, it appears this phone drains faster than the XL2 in both scenarios. I'll keep testing and post screenshots. I'm hesitant to return my XL2 as a trade-in.
I forgot to plug up last night so this morning I decided top just ride it out and see what I can get as far as screen time. I was thinking of starting a "Battery Life" thread, but no need since I am sure this one will suffice. My time included about 3 or so hours of music using Poweramp and other browsing and chatting and a few downloads. Bluetooth and WiFi on throughout the entire time.

wifi/data on all day.
Very solid battery life!
Really happy with this.
Very mediocre battery life!
I find that the battery doesn't last quite as long as my pixel xl.... Probably due to the fact that the screen isn't as bright so I have to keep it on max brightness during the day. Didn't have the screen issue on my pixel xl though.

A week and a bit with my brand new 3 XL and I have the same observations too. My 2 XL seemed to have less idle battery drain. Both phones have been rooted & running their latest respective ElementalX kernels.
Have been having a few nagging issues with the 3 XL too which I never experienced with the 2 XL. It refused to connect to my car bluetooth the other morning until I restarted the phone, and the lockscreen screen on/off animations are painfully slow and laggy 80% of the time too...

how though, my best from 100-50 was somewhat 2 hrs and 50 mins
Ever since I received a replacement , I've been getting really good battery life. The one I had before had very poor battery and standby wasn't good either
Happy
I'm pretty impressed.
I have the pixel 3 and SoT is about 3.5-4hrs and I had read a lot that it was better than the p3xl.
I got the p3xl on Tuesday, battery was kinda weird some days but today I am super impressed. Hardly used wifi as well and always has gps on.
After DEc update, my battery sucks.
Now I only get 3-4hrs.
I had 10 % battery drain last night. The phone was face down so the AOD was off for 7 hours . Is that normal
Pretty good battery life here. No root, no battery saving action, all stock.
Usually I get 7,5h sot.
Really quite disappointed with the battery life, tbh.
I had a P20 Pro until a few weeks ago - I know that's a massive battery but the Pixel 3 XL doesn't even come close. I get maybe 4hrs SOT.
Most disappointing though is the drain when idle - seems to lose about 2% an hour. With the P20 Pro I could leave it off charge overnight and it would only lose about 2% in total.

While I don't believe you would get that amount of SOT over a prolonged period, it does point out that raw mah isn't everything.
I agree it won't get that much in real life. I am curious however how the SOT will be for people that will not use the radar, no AOD and possibly even no face unlock, stay on 60hz and just want a great camera, good speed and latest assistant and have the best Google ecosystem experience. I am that kind of user.
I looked at the 3axl but it is noticeably slow and I need a fast phone for different work needs.

no doubt, those conditions that you just stated should save a substantial amount of battery life. My 6T is 3700mah and I get around 6-8hrs sot(depending on usage) no reason to think the pixel can't achieve that with superior software.
Got the phone yesterday, charged all the way up before turning on at about 5pm. Went to bed about midnight. Galaxy S2 watch connected around 7 pm. Did setup, some netflix, and typical messing around with a new phone. Didn't screen shot it, but when I was going to bed last night, I had 4h03M SOT with 47% left. I don't expect it to translate to 7hrs or anything, but it seems better than my previous Note 9 and S8+.

Roger that on the N9! My wife's N9 looses a minimum of 10% overnight at idle. Shoot, my Chevy suburban with 6 people going uphill at 75mph gets better mileage! ???
I got the phone yesterday and charged it too 100% and my screen on time was 6hrs 5 Mon with 9% left. I don't get why the negative battery comments and reviews so far. 6 hours is more than enough.
First cycle with dynamic 90hz no point of forcing always to 90hz. Most social media apps. Tg and duo suck a lot of battery.

The battery is not that bad... here are my screenshots. I am not a gaming person but I usually was surfing the internet, Facebook, etc... and use message app and did use the camera. I turned motion sense off since I am Deaf so I can't hear the music and my hands are getting tired from wave and wave.
sorry for bad grammar.
Good. Maybe the haters will STFU now
Got my 4XL yesterday and it was at 60% out of the box. I used it like normal and with more than 3hr 30min of screen on-time it was at 24%. I don't think it will be that bad.
2nd cycle I guess since it's under 75% it was at 60hz didn't notice any difference screen still very smooth.

I believe they meant the screen brightness was under 75%. When it is, the screen only runs at 60hz.
So I've had the Pixel 4 XL , for 3 full days in the UK now.
Day 1 SOT was 6 hrs 3 mins with 9% left
Day 2 SOT was 6 hrs 15 min with 4 % left
Day 3 SOT is 5 hrs 1 min with 18% left.
The battery is more than adequate. I had the 3 XL which would get a max of just over 4 hours. I'm new.to the forum but I have screenshots as well but don't have a clue how to upload lol. The phone is on 90hz at all times too But most times you can't really tell. It's an amazing phone so fast, the disappointment is video quality again and some of the pic quality is similar levels to 3 XL but I need to fully utilise the camera.
I got similar SOT with 6 hr 12 min and 9% battery left. This with using "force" 90hz , 87% brightness , and always on display (thought it was not always on!). Battery is more than adequate for my usage.

I have been very happy with battery life so far.
Screen is on 90hz qhd+
90% on wifi
Sot of 7 hours and 5 minutes.
Been of the charger for 15 hours.
Still 16% battery left.
First day of moderate usage with qhd and 90 hz
90 hz fhd betwen 7-8 hours screen on time normal use social media youtube and some light games (except pubg that game is a battery killer ) with quad hd didn't tested yet !
Fourth day with the op7t pro and I've noticed that the screen on time is even worse than on my 3 years old OnePlus 3...
I'm getting 3 to 4 hours of screen on time in normal usage. Google, social media and Netflix/YouTube.
If I start playing games the sot drops below 3 hours
I'll send it back and buy another smartphone. It's not acceptable to have 3 hours of sot for a brand new flagship
have you tried a hard reset in your phone , dark mode , and battery saver as well because 7t pro can do better than that

I have a 6-8 SOT usually (90hz and automatic resolution). Give it some days to stabilize. Battery on first days was bad. Now it's amazing
I average too around 7 hours of sot. Pretty good I would say.
I'm really thinking about giving it a try but SOT is very important to me and no phone has come close to my mate 20 pro this year and I returned every one I tested. But never tried a oneplus so... Wireless charging is really something i would miss for sure so I'm still hesitating. And the mixed results given here don't confort me into buying it...
Display -FHD 90 HZ Brightnes 50% dark mode on
only wifi no sim cards on it used for netflix , youtube facebook , browser and camera

Well... Now it's even worse. I'm getting like 3 hours (of even less) of screen on time.
Automatic resolution, 90Hz, only wifi, 1/3 of brightness, black/dark mode everywhere, only social media and video (yt and Netflix).
I'll send it back. It's unacceptable for a flagship to get under 3 hours of sot. I have to plug in my OnePlus 7t pro 2-3 times a day

Many threads mention WhatsApp as the culprit. The latest beta should fix the drain.

Im on my first charge 7t pro mclaren. Debloatet it, rooted and now are looking forward to drain it. Charged it to 100% and now im at 98% with screen on time 20minutes but brightness at ~30%
Will post screenshots when its drained
Amazing
55% left.... No charge beetween. Most of the time wifi. Low brightness ~30-50%. Everything blacked (substratum) also Samsung browser dark mode...

I had a Oneplus 3 since october 2016 and I did not realised how bad the battery was. During the last 2 years I had 2h30 of sot MAX, mosty 2h.
With the Oneplus Nord, after the first charge I got 4h30 of sot (36 hours of usage) and still 21% battery left.
I don't game, mostly web browsing.

This has me a bit worried. I have had a Huawei mate 20 and a Xiaomi mij 9t pro that got me 6 to 7 hours easily... And those had 4000 mAh.
This proves everything is relative. It is more than enough for me.
Don't forget It was only the first cycle so I cannot conclude anything yet.
Not to bad after 4 day's actually. 5.5 hours SOT and 33% left. Most of the time spend on WiFi though.
9h
Just web browsing. Little youtube , 30 minutes or so. Wifi. Brightness auto.
Update
Well , there it is.
Battery is great. Period.
Battery is great. Usually I get 7-8 of sot. Also the charging is ridiculously fast for me as I switched from a 4 year old phone with just a 5 watt charger.

Nice how are your settings and how much standby time ?
Check on lte or 5g only and show the graphs .
Battery drainage is not just a nord domain.

I only charged twice so far, but both times I barely got over 6 hours SOT. Using 60hz, on WiFi, mostly just browsing web, no gaming.

Well maybe it is so high because I did not used the phone that much then and it was new , not so many apps instaled .
Now a get max 8 hours .
So , it just hapend I guess.
One HIT wonder like. ?
I am barely getting 4-5 hours of SoT. Is there something that I need to do to boost up my battery life?
When I first got the phone battery life was just ok 4 hrs sot. After 5 days its improved by quite a bit including the latest September update.
Am on 90hz all the time. Blocked all Facebook. So far its ok. Would have been great if it had a slightly bigger battery.
I will get an 6 or 7 hrs screen on time on 90hz,
In this picture iam using continues hotspot thats why its low
