Standby drain - Realme 3 Pro Real Life Review

Bad Battery drain
Using it for two days only. Even with smart power saver and sleep mode on the battery drains pretty fast on standby mode. It went from 13% to 0 in 5 hours(overnight). Which does not happen on my other phone (Asus zenfone max pro m1). Don't know if it is a software thing as the soc is pretty efficient as far I understand and the zenfone runs stock android.
P.S. Why do they remove the screen on time.
P.P.S. I wish the settings app was easier to navigate.

This has become way too annoying mow. Last night it was 20% I switched on 'Super High Power Efficiency' hoping hardly any power will be consumed as they kill the background processes. But this morning found it switched off.
When I checked the power usage it appears background tasks were running and they hogged up all the juices.
Now I regret not buying a phone with optimized software. I have read other phones (nokia 8.1, mi 8 se) with the same 710 soc and 3k mAh battery runs almost 2 days. Mine lasts barely a day.

mine too, same issue. i am looking for custom rom that can solve the issue

also moved from a Zenfone Max Pro M1, was disappointed by the drain. However after checking power usage details, my camera app was running throughout the night, so I've disabled it for now and am using another camera app.

How do you disable system apps? Pls tell me.

Guys, I have been using this for few days. For me standby time is excellent, last night it was 26 when I wake up it is 22%: I don't even turn off internet at night.
Probably this might work for you, go settings>battery>screen battery optimization> set it to balanced.

I got my phone yesterday
my battry was also draining fast
after check i found camera app using battery in background
Solution
Disable face unlock- it keeps your camera app ON always so put it off.

Did the issue gone after u disable face unlock?
Thank you

I bought it in the first sale and I'm not facing any such issue. I got SOT of 7 to 9 hours depending on my use (I don't play games).
To check the Screen on time on realme 3 pro follow the below steps:
Install Gsam battery monitor
Goto settings > battery
Disable Smart Power Saver
Select 'Custom Power Consumption Protection'
Select GSam battery monitor and allow background running.
This will OS will not kill it and it will be able to measure properly.

3-4% normal at night..
I got 3% drain during night with wifi off and single sim installed.
The last two nights my Honor 10 lost about 20% over night (approximately 8h) in Flightmode. I can't tell why... There is no app or hardware that consumes more power than usual. After I got my phone the SOT was about 6 hours, now it barely goes over 3 hours. Does anyone else have the same problem?
Mine loses 5-7 % overnight which seems rather bad to me. My Xiaomi Mi4 which I had before lost like 1-2 %...

Even though you disable mobile data phone will search continuously for 4g signal which is not available properly, which causes battery drain.

Not bad stats .. full day off charger with emails, phone calls, WhatsApp and lil bit of other social media too
This is my battery drain overnight.
Is this a problem? I expect a very near horizontal drain overnight of max 1% to 2%...
That doesn't look like 1% or 2%

Here is an update:
I tried to turn off every app in the battery settings so that they are not allowed to work in the background. That didn't help.
Then i turned off the wifi and bluetooth search for the location (GPS). That didn't help either.
After that i did some research and people with Honor 8 had the same problem and performed a "clear cache" via recovery so i did that too... What a surprise that didn't help. So i read some articles that the Google Pixel 2 and the One Plus 6 have some problems with the battery after the latest Oreo Update so i performed a factory reset aaand that didn't help...
So for fun i powered off my Honor 10 over night and the battery drain was also 20% and the phone was compeletly off.
I will now wait for the next Emui Update and if this will not help i have to exchange this phone.

Sure,

The phone was in flightmode from approximately 00.15 am until today morning 09.00 am.
In the next days i will power off my phone and send some screenshots but they will look the same...

Hello Everybody, sorry for the late reply.
I send the Honor back to the reseller and today it came back.
The display has been exchanged and two electronic components were exchanged (they did not specify which ones).
The problem seems solved with the repair of the phone.
For people who maybe have the same problem i attached the screenshot when the phone was completely powered off.
Thanks for your help
I got 2% drain during night with wifi off and single sim installed!

Standby drain

A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.

There is one setting that influences standby battery drain very much - "mobile signal standby"
Have a look in your battery monitor.
I have got Mi9SE Global V10.2.5.0.PFBEUXM and my battery lasts longer now.
Go to Settings -> My Device -> internal storage (click 4 times until you are in test suite)
no go to telephone information 1 or 2 (according to your sim)
look for "set preferred network type"
default value is - LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS
but in europe there is no TD-SCDMA - so the phone searches for a mobile network that does not exist. this drains your battery
set it to LTE/WCDMA
enjoy much longer battery!
ATTENTION - after a reboot the setting is back to stock! you have to set it again or wait for xiaomi to fix it in a future release!
i try because at night phone drain 12-15% in standby
You can also type *#*#4636#*#* in your dialer to get to that setting
Thanks, will try. Hope thex fix that in future release
Thanks mate! Lets see the endurance with it

I got Mi 9 se like 2 days ago and I already had read this post, so as soon as I got my phone, I switched to wcdma only as I only use 3g.. The battery life coming from SD 625, 4000mA was underwhelming but still got 7 hours out of it, 1 day and 2 nights usage to the max.. The thing thats bothering me is the cell standby time! It's eating away the battery in idle and during screen on.. Got 8 percent battery drain during the night with everything off and it's been the highest consumer till the end (screen time just took over it at the end).. I am on 10.2.2.. Apparently there is no help regarding this anywhere

Hi there, just made a quick test overnight and I "think" I found the root cause. I deleted the fingerprint data thus disabling the fingerprint reader and the results are a bit worrying... got 3% loss in 7 hours during the night. This morning I'm stable on 1% / hour drain with short calls and AOD on. I'll take a look in the kernel if I can find anything related to the reader power management, but I'm pretty confident the cause is in there...

s10 plus Battery draining

Ehy everyone, for some reason it feels to me that my battery life on my s10 plus sucks.
I got it 2 weeks ago.
I did a test and charged up to 100%, went to sleep with 100% and woke up with 93% battery..
In addition to that, my previous phone Galaxy a7 2017, could hold on 100% like 5 minutes even when using the phone, my s10 plus goes from 100 to 96 in like few mintues..
I added a screenshot from my battery usage
And cpu usage
Oh and btw, ive read about the Voip battery drain but i dont do any whatsapp calls or such..
Any help?
I put mine on airplane mode at 50% before bed wake up its 49% , I've found I get better battery life from quick hrs or so charge rather than charging through the night , also it learns your charging habits apparently , but that's a big drain poss a app is root cause do you put on airplane mode at night ?

Did you do a restore your data from a backup?
There are users reporting that restoring from SmartSwitch or Google backup can affect battery life, there is a really nice thread called battery optimisation guide you should give it a look

Guys please follow this guide

Your phone should work like a charm, those devices should behave a certain way, either it is a bug or something you might be doing wrong or an app setting coming from a backup restoration.
It is a voip call, google a little. I had deep sleep for 7 days, yesterday i made a call, and since then phone didnt go to deep sleepz so i restarted it and now it is as before... It is fixed in march update. Buying a phone that costs 1000+ $ and turning 50% of options off is ridiculous.

Mine was poor but after 5 days did pick up. Had to change some settings. However, I can't put a picture on as says this feature has been disabled by your administrator. Xda app

The latest firmware update solve the VoIP CPU-lock issue. But i am still experiencing mild battery drain, when i sleep with 100% batt, i closed all apps and cleared them from the ram and still get 93% when i wake up after 8hours of idle time. No idea how to solve this, checked the CPU its on "sleep/idle" mode the entire 8hours but somehow -7% battery.
I turned off VoIP, location and put the phone to medium power saving mode. It got better.
Edit: I am not having any performance issues with medium battery saving. %70 brightness, limited CPU, FHD screen resolution.

Phone lost 24% overnight. Culprit seems to be Facebook services, which in turn triggered Google services (for GPS location). I've disabled all the FB crap now and I'll see how it goes today...
Update 19/02 - I'm using Swipe Pro for Facebook and since then the battery seems to have settled. Getting really good battery life now with not too much standby drain.
The 730G is dreadful on my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 - which has an even bigger, ~5200mAh battery. It performs much worse than my OnePlus 7 Pro with 4000mAh. IMO the chipset (730/730G) is NOT power efficient.

Likely a device specific problem. Notebookcheck test power consumption in idle, sd 730/g phones are within the same range of comparable mid range SOCs. A71 in particular consumes pretty much the same as Pixel 3a for example (Snapdragon 670), more under load but it's quite a bit more powerful as well, consumes less than Galaxy A51 (Exynos 9611), way less than Huawei P30 lite (Kirin 710) and quite a bit less than Oneplus 7 pro as well for that matter. It uses the same modem as sd 710 and 712 so that's not a problem either.
I have 2-4% standby battery drain. But I checked all apps for background battery usage, I don't use facebook app. The only background apps I use are email, sense flip clock and I use greenify on top of that.

I have about 15% battery drain in flight mode during the night. I feel this is a CATASTROPHY! What is causing this??? Is there a FREE app that can find what app is doing this? If I check in the settings, it says all apps has drained 0% during the night..
Hey, am thinking of buying an A71 and was wondering if you still have battery issues please?
I have wifi off and Bluetooth for watch, No FB . I get 1 or 2% loss mainly messenger lite , and my games I don't shut down .. with wifi on an average day its about 40% loss . that with wifi always on , games being played, youtube etc ... Since taking of FB I have noticed a huge difference, as before I was loosing 10/20 % at night and 70% in the day ... now I charge once every 2 days, which is not bad ...

Update 19/02 - I'm using Swipe Pro for Facebook and since then the battery seems to have settled. Getting really good battery life now with not too much standby drain.

if U use Facebook Messenger , just remove it and test your phone again
if its not gonna helpful , just check what app drain your battery in setting
Same problem. Just got mine and lost 25% overnight. AOD is not even on. I disabled Facebook the instant I took it out of the box so it isn't that. Must be another app but not sure which. All the same apps I was using on my previous device and had no issues like this.
My battery life is horrible on my A71, I come home from work with 10%, on my P20 Pro which has a smaller battery is 65-70%. I have already used package disabler to disable the crap and its still happening. Going to be returning this phone.
Standby Drain on A71 Samsung
I have the phone for 1 week now and the battery I can say is performing very poor. Just got it to 100% then after 1 minute suddenly went to 99% and after 5 mins suddenly went to 98% just on standby mode. Can anyone please explain me why this is happening?
My device is always optimized (no background processes running). Every app (even the useful ones) I have put to sleep, which means I'm sacrificing on not getting the notifications when the internet is connected as those those apps are put to sleep but I did it just to put my battery on right track. Still no significant benefit.
Standby drain is the biggest issue I'm facing. Early 2% drops from 100% for no reason at all. At night time, I see at least 3% drop in 4 to 5 hours standby with wifi off and zero brightness and dark mode on and always-on display disabled, battery saving mode on and no app running in the background.
I'm having 1% battery drop every 10 mins for just reading comments on XDA developer or GSMArena with brightness to 0%, no extra app working in background, have put all the apps to sleep when not in use, no multimedia use, always-on display disabled, dark mode on, battery saving mode on. So, when I'm using Chrome, I'm only using Chrome. When I'm watching Youtube videos on app with 20% brightness and 60% volume, I'm having 1% drop every 7 to 8 mins. I see variability between each % drop. Like for example, sometimes it drops 1% at 4 mins interval and after that it will take 8 mins to drop a percent.
I have never been so confused in terms of battery life before. Someone from Samsung should at least come forward and explain to us what is going on.
From the reviews, the new updates doesn't have much to offer in terms of battery life. I haven't gotten the update yet.

Had the same issue and no matter what I did couldn’t fix it. I turned this off turned that off, lowered this, reduced that. In the end I gave up and returned it. Shouldn’t be that much of an effort but then it always seems to be with Samsung. Huawei for example it’s just ready to go and works flawlessly out of the box. For a phone that had 4500mah battery it performs nothing like it. I bought the new iPhone SE, it’s battery is tiny 1800mah or something and it lasts longer than the A71.
47% overnight, with no use. It's my second A71. The first, the battery seemed normal. But I did not observe this detail carefully. I changed it the first time due to the infamous discoloration defect of the screen on a gray background with low brightness. Now the second, in addition to the same discoloration defect of the screen, the battery does not last! I went to sleep, the battery at 47%. Wifi off. Mobile data off. GPS off. Bluetooth turned off. Vibration off. Always on Display off. NFC Off. Sim card removed. Only Whatsapp running in the background. All other apps have been configured to be suspended in the background. Approximately 8 hours later, without any use, the battery has zeroed. I have a Samsung Galaxy A7 2017, which has 3 years of use and a 3600MAh battery worn by hundreds of charge cycles, and yet its battery is WELL better than the Galaxy A71, which has 4500MAh and a few days of use. If a new cell phone discharges at this rate, imagine after about 2 years of use. You will need to recharge every hour. Turning the adaptive battery on or off for me made no difference. During normal use, it discharges quickly, but the problem is much more evident at night, when the device is not in use. It seems to drain as much energy in idle mode as in normal use.
The quality of Samsung's products is dropping every day. 3 years ago, you could buy an intermediary made of metal and glass. Protection IP68, OIS and Gorilla Glass 4. Today, the devices that cost almost the same as the high end, are all made of plastic. Without IP68. Gorilla Glass 3 (obsolete technology from 2013), without OIS, and batteries that although bigger, last less. Quality decreases and price increases. It is unfortunate.

The 730G is dreadful on my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 - which has an even bigger, ~5200mAh battery. It performs much worse than my OnePlus 7 Pro with 4000mAh. IMO the chipset (730/730G) is NOT power efficient.

I have the 730G 8GB ram variant on my A71 (This is the standard in the PH) and my phone lasts for 2 days with social media and youtube usage. OST is between 6-7 hours so no issues with the chip itself, the phone software is probably not optimized properly with the Mi Note 10.

So what's happening to the other people in this thread? Is it a case of just too many bad apples (bad/broken devices) or... ?

I think we need to put things into context first. None of them talked about what apps they had running, what settings they used, etc. Also, the other dude talked about the Huawei when that phone is known to aggressively kill apps very quickly in the background to save battery as a default. You can also do that with Sammy's but you need to activate it first.
As for my phone, it's set on its default out of the box-setting which is optimized if that at all matters.

I think we also need to look at which carriers are having issues. I have an open line international variant and I've had none of the issues in this thread.

Hey, am thinking of buying an A71 and was wondering if you still have battery issues please?

If you can find an open line (not tied to any carrier) international variant, it doesn't have any issues.

Mine was a bit power hungry at first 6 months ago
Now that i shut off and tried to kill all processes but active ones my battery is AMAZING!
So to compare I read your post last night at around 11 ish to midnight topped off the phone to 94%, and it dropped to 93% just before i went to sleep
killed all the processes with built in battery device care and also greenify.
woke up today at 8:30am and the batter was at 90% and dropped to 89% after a min of use.
So 3-4% over eight or nine hours.... I"m pretty happy with that.

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the OnePlus Nord's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
nord 12gb
my nord 12gb variant drops around 25% at night during my sleep. very irritating 1st time i am using a mobile around 30000 thousand and feeling very disappointment choosing one+ Nord. company advertise battery for the whole day , but in actual battery sucks and i have to recharge my device 2 times . **** One+
Same issue. Overnight it drops between 18% and 23% depending on my sleepcycle. I blame the Do Not Disturb mode, Doze mode or something is just plain wrong with my apparatus.
No auch problems here, I'm losing between 3 and 4 percent in 8 hours over night which is totally ok for me.
I don't have that problem, the battery lasts a day and a half, with normal use, bt for smartwach always connected, bt by car, 2-3 hours of online radio, surfing the internet, whatsapp, calls
And at night I do not have a consumption beyond 3-4%, it seems normal to me.
Do you use original charger and cable?
Yes, used original charger and adapter.
How much SoT do you have?
8Gb or 12Gb version?
My SoT is now 3h15 and I al on 11%...
Normal usage, wifi and mobile data on. BT only when needed, no GPS, no intensive graphical games,...
Mine ist dropping max 2-3% overnight. I think that's okay. But more than 10% is weird, maybe some Apps or Services waking Up the Phone alot? Im running Stock oos no root and newest version

With a Lot gaming 4-5.
Without gaming (my max sot) 8h 1min with 11% left(Bluetooth speaker all day, mostly using Chrome and Instagram , some Video editing too) (some more Details and Screenshots Here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-nord/review/screen-time-t4127271/post83700021)
(dark mode on, 90hz refresh rate, brightness at 60% with autobrightness on, nfc Off, autosync on for all accounts)
At the Moment i am at 95% with 40min sot
Thank for the reply. I noticed the Camera app was eating half of my battery, I disabled Face Unlock but still went from 29% to 11¨% overnight and nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. I wiped the cache such as suggested on the Oneplus forum and did a full charge. We'll see tonight how that goes.

That seems to do it. 3 days, 1,5h talk time, 4h40 SoT, etc... and 6% left.
Now I noticed WiFi (5Ghz) drops connecting on longer standby times, that didn't happen before.
I don't get this machine.

Ok, got it. It's a setting to disconnect Wi-Fi during long standby times.
Settings - Battery - Battery optimalization - Advanced Optimalization (3 dots top right corner) - Sleep standby-optimalization
All of a sudden my WhatsApp eats 21% of the total power consumption, anybody is experiencing the same? Didn't change the optimization settings for any app. for the first month since I had this phone everything was at around 1-2%. Now Whatsapp is using way more power and didn't see any news that this affects all models
Same issue here on my brand new Nord. Plane mode and battery saver enabled and still ~20% battery drain over the night

I tried the cache clear and it helps a bit but whatsapp is still the biggest battery drainer for me currently.

Yep, cache clear did not work for me at all. I uninstalled some crappy apps like FB and YT Music as well as many others ported from my older device. That plus the lastest Always On Edge updates helped a lot. I went from 20% to 8-10% standy drain. Whatsapp still consumes a lot more than any other app, even if i don't use it
3 month of use : I've noticed that battery is draining a lot (lot)!when I let auto rotate & bluetooth activated. I think I will fix it with some Tasker profile so I will not miss to disable it anymore.
