There is no problems with battery life. And how could we possibly predict what marshmellow has in store for battery life for this device?

Ya its already good. I used a regular s6 and the plus manages the battery much better. Its 430 now and i have been unplugged since 530 this morning. Im at 67%
Thats with light use but the s6 prob would have been down to like 40 with the same amount of use.

To put it in perspective I took my note 4 with a brand new battery off charge at 9am its now 3 40 and I have 52 percent left and 2h25 SOT with very light usage, will I see better than this with the edge ?

I haven't had a phone with this good battery life in a year, except for the iPhone 6 plus which seem to have equally good battery life.
But yeah the standby time should be better on all phones with marshmallow.

So, how has the battery life been since you've had the phone? I know it's still early, but is it comparable to the original Turbo?
Also, how's the performance of the snapdragon 820? It's been plagued with overheating issue since it's been out. Anyone notice this phone running hotter than previous phones? Also has anyone placed any heavy stress on the CPU, like some high graphics games?

I'm coming from droid maxx and battery life is comparable.
Processor is a snapdragon 810. I've not noticed any lag or throttling. Phone does get warm with extended use but no more than maxx so far.
Coming from an LG G3 the battery life is pretty good. I have noted the phone getting fairly warm under extended use, but it doesn't seem to mind. Time will tell. I've only had it for 18 hours. XD
Mine hasn't gotten hot at all when using not plugged in. It gets a lil warm when charging at low percentages. But nothing more than my GS6 does. Battery life is amazing... 3hrs18min SOT and 45% battery left
This was my first day battery use with everything turned on. WiFi, adaptive screen, high accuracy location. All the bells and whistles on. Heavy Heavy use. Love this phone. Tweaking the settings would get much more.
My mobile is very fast discharged what can I do for it.
It stays cooler than my maxx. Gsam battery monitor never went over 36 Celsius. I was on the phone for hours setting it up. Even turbo charging didn't heat it up. My maxx used to average 45-48 Celsius.

The only time mine gets warm is when I'm downloading alot of stuff. Other than that its cool. I'm getting 6+ hrs a day with extremely heavy use with everything turned on and screen 50%. No adaptive display.
Coming from the original Turbo. Battery life is very very comparable. Of course, I was using Greenify on the Turbo and could therefore squeeze more juice there. But based on just 1st day of HEAVY usage, Turbo2 is excellent.
The phone does get warm. It does NOT get hot.

OK for the first time my phone got fairly hot when plugged into the turbo charger. Hasn't always done that.
I have had not so good battery life with google play services always being at the top of the consumption list. I went as far as putting GPS in battery saving and also disabled every Google now and moto feature and also did a factory reset and also tried the gservicefix on the Google play store and somehow Google play services still drains my battery.
I gave it a full charge and used it a bit before bedtime. Left it with screen off at 96% and woke up 6 hours later with it at 84%. Mind you I have everything disabled such as photos backup and all. Only basic sync such as Gmail contacts and calendar, all others are off. I any ideas fellas?
Just checked mine its only at 2%

This is my same problem. My phone gets hot on the metal sides. Today I only got 1.5hrs sot and 6hrs total before it was dead. Tried factory reset yesterday after same problems.
We need root to get to the root of the problem and find out and disable w/e is draining our battery.
I'm wondering if some of these units have bad batteries cause mine is fine. I'm getting 6+ sot with heavy use. Keeping a close eye on it though cause I don't want to be stuck with a bad phone. So far I am happy with it.

I would take it back and exchange it. Cause that's not good at all. Maybe bad unit?
Now I'm scared that I may have a bad unit. How long do I have to return it? I got it on Thursday.
Right now I have 2 hours and thirty minutes of sot with google player vices draining almost 20% and playstore taking second place be sure I downloaded real racing 3 and Android os taking third. This sucks, I've mostly just sent text a few emails and 10 minutes on here reading this thread.

Not sure but I would think they would. I would snap a screen shot of your sot to show them. Don't see how they could argue about a horrible screen time like that. Battery has to be bad. Sorry that wasn't you that had the bad sot was it.
Anyone wanting to know if they can return a bad unit. Here's a return link.

Definitely impressed so far. How about your experience?
I'd like to know wich rom offers better battery life, xiaomi.eu or official global.
I get 6-7h of SoT regularly. But then I use my phone heavily every single day, needing to recharge at 3pm, almost never allowing the phone to sleep/turn off the display.
Amazing Batterylife

Since I've used reading mode my screen on time is 5 hours, meanwhile at first my Sox was about 6.30 hours...
i got decent 6 hour screen on time in normal usage ( in performance and balance mode)
i always turn performance mode because i did notice some frame drop and lag
i just received redmi 4 prime view day ago
and it beat redmi note 4 battery life
Battery life is awesome! I'm coming from the iPhone 6s and I'm completely stunned by the battery life I get with this phone!
I get on average 7 hours screen on time (chrome instagram twitter whatsapp spotify youtube twitch) and phone last about at least 18-20 hours. Amazing

GSam works on your phone? MIUI keeps killing off mine, so the results are horribly inaccurate. Tried high priority, tried removing power saving from MIUI app settings, tried putting notification. Kept killing off the notification.
You should go to Settings and then Permissions and then Autostart and select the apps you want to be able to run in the background and autostart.
Pretty decent battery with the alternative rom from cofface.
img15.hostingpics.net/pics/421253Screenshot20161222000030.png
Around 4-5 hours SOT, 20% brightness mostly reddit, FB, manga, that's with wifi + dualsim btw.
can you tell me what is the pecertange of cell standby on your phone when you have 5-6 hours sot and what ROM do you use? thank you
Thunder ROM, no tweaks or settings changed, WiFi + dualsim, 4G if there's no WiFi
Between the huge battery and the very customizable "doze" alternative, this thing sips its juice like a little bird. Could go for a few days if need be. Stock everything.

Lol what? That's impossible.. That's probably on multiple charges or you left the screen of the phone on overnight without using it (which will only consume some %).

Dude seriously? 23 hours with 11 hours of SOT? That's the craziest I've ever seen and I've seen a lot. What is your usage? (apps, wifi or 3G/4G)

Hi guys
I have just purchased a new LG g4 h815.
I am loving the speed, the looks and everything but I have an issue regarding battery life. I am getting a screen on time of around 2.5 hrs with moderate to heavy use, is it normal for LG g4 though to don't play any games or stuff . Previously I had used a Samsung Note 4 it had an amazing battery life, screen on time was around 3.5 to 4 hrs with moderate to heavy use.
Any suggestions to improve battery life I have turned off location services, auto sync and Bluetooth, screen brightness is @40 % but WIFI is turned on constantly
I have surfed a lots of sites and forums most of them are complaining about the battery life of this phone but still most of them are getting around 3 to 3.5 hrs of screen on time.

The only thing you can do is get back on lollipop. 6h SOT is pretty average score on lollipop

I have basically given up on this phone. Never get any updates (in Norway) and battery is very poor. The worst phone I ever had comparing battery. You should not have to turn off everything and tweak the phone and ask in forums to get good battery time. My father have a samsung brand and don't know **** about android or phones and have he's phone full of crap and never optimized it for anything and he STILL have great battery... Much better than mine. Weird right?
A thing I think, is that this phone struggle with WiFi. I have a lot of wifi disconnects and it gets very hot when it struggles with wifi. Sometimes when im at home I can have 60% left battery and not use it for a while and then suddenly have 40%...
I like this.

Having just gone though the same hassles, I found the only way to get good battery life is to get the latest version of Lollipop (V10F-TWN-XX for me), root and install Greenify to hibernate hungry apps like facebook etc. I find my battery life is now better than my old G2. I get about 3+ hours SOT and lots of standby time. (Its 10:20 am right now, usage on battery is 3h 35 mins, estimated time remaining is 155 hours, 3 % use in last 3h, 28m screen on time) Previously my battery would have been on 50-60% by mid day, now its in the 90s.
I was almost ready to ditch the phone and find something else, which would have been a shame as I like this phone.
What I tried and found along the way:
- Use the battery charger that came with the phone, the charger that came with my phone had a different plug so I used another brand. This was charging my battery too fast and causing it not to hold as much charge.
- I tried almost every Marshmallow stock rom I could find. Nothing seemed to be that great with the battery.
- I disabled wifi when not in use, location bluetooth etc...went back to almost no apps just to see what was causing poor battery, but determined it wasn't anything other than the system.
Anyway, thats what worked for me. Hope that helps.
Great battery life on Genisys for BL developed by Ignacio R. No root, bloatware blocked, Hibernation Manager on board. It's not heavy used, most browser on wifi/lte, g+, youtube.

Sorry for the little OT:
Someone can suggest me a MM rom with good battery life and minimal lg bloatware?
Is it Lineage pretty good too in comparison?
I'm now on H-Rom but actually sot time it's ****ty (even using titan kernel and disabled big cores)
This is early but post your battery life.

Impressive. Considering the most I have ever managed for SoT on my S5 is 4-5 hours ands thats with screen brightness turned down quite a bit, cant wait for my s8+ to arrive!!
that makes me so happy. The iphone 6s Plus I had would last all day. The Note 7 I had would last all day. The S7E is almost dead by noon (5-6 hours.) Looks like the S8+ will last me all day again.
Very impressed with the battery life on the little S8 and the S8 Plus.
Considering the former only has a 3000 mAh battery, it lasted surprisingly long.

I get 6-7 hours on my s7e exynos, I dono why some people get such crap battery life, maybe duds?
Facebook, snapchat, weather running in statusbar all the time for starters. I show people all the time how much that stuff kills battery and tell them to manually check social media accounts.

Cause most everyone uses their phone's differently. Someone else using your exact phone may see way less.

I got the Exynos S7 Edge and I'm averaging at about 5.5H SOT. About 3.5h SOT is outdoors with maximum brightness. Tomorrow my S8 will arrive and I'll report back then
any shipments as of yet ?
It's better than my Note 7
I havent done any monitoring but I believe it is better than my S7 Edge. I was not happy with S7 once it updated to Nouget.

It's because there were many people who had battery draining bugs on their S7E. Certain apps (out of the box) and certain settings would cause the battery to drain extremely fast.
I know all of this because I went through it and I created a thread on how to fix the issue.
My final results with a Snapdragon S7E were roughly 8 hours SOT.

Please post SOT and battery discharge screenshots
Looks like I'm projecting to get 5.5-6 SOT on my S8+. Although that is only 30% into the battery, so we'll see.
Seems ok to me.
But im on the highest resolution setting (raised it from the default), auto brightness, wifi/bluetooth/nfc/location services on, and an android wear watch connected.
