Standby drain - Oppo Reno 2 Real Life Review

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 Oppo Reno 2'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!

mine is dropping at virtually 1% per hour over night. went from 100% to 91% in 8 hours of standby last night. Cant say ive been impressed with the battery on this phone in the few weeks ive had it. my pixel 2xl has the exact same apps on and drops about 3% over an 8 hour period at night time.

What kind of sorcery is this?
I set up a Reno 2 (EU/Germany) on ColorOS 7 / Android 10 last week and it has the most amazing battery / standby drain I have ever seen.
Admittedly, I hardly use it... but right now I am looking at 4 days, 5 hours, 26 Minutes (101 hours!!!) Standby, 2 hours 57 Minutes SOT (Reddit and Youtube), have made approximately 30 Minutes of Phone calls and still have 31% remaining!
Is the SD730g such a weapon? I thought my Huawei P20 Pro was amazing with 1-2 days of use, but this blows everything away.
This is with Dual Sim and LTE on Sim1 and 3G on Sim 2.
Curious to find out how long it'll last overall.
To put it in perspective, I still have an Exynos Samsung S20+ 5G here which I am looking to sell (among other reasons) because it lasted 18 hours with that use.
....and I won't keep the Oppo either, because it doesn't support native call recording (disabled for the EU) :crying: ; so I have no reason to make things up about it. but I feel like there's a prank going on and someone sneakily charges it while I sleep.

How'd you manage to get ColorOS 7 on it?
I've also got the EU(Germany) version but am not getting the update.
Thanks in advance

using a vpn, you show that you are connecting from another country where the coloros 7 has already been released by oppo, I did it from Spain, and you are looking for the update.

I'm afraid "just wait" is my answer. I attempted the VPN Route (via Switzerland and Spain) and was offered Version C26, but that always failed to install. One day I was offered Version C28, without VPN, which installed just fine.

Mostly WiFi. Oddly enough my phone just shows "4g" not 4g LTE
Yesterday I got 5 hrs SOT with over 1 hr of Pokémon Go and still 24% left. Display was on full brightness in auto mode because the sun was shining like crazy. That alone used around 30%. After that I set up my Android Wear watch and did some downloading of games etc.
I think when simply browsing on WiFi/4G way more is possible. Will post if I have some figures.
These 3 pictures are from today. Mostly wifi, 1 hr commute, 40 mins Pokémon Go, a lot of twitch and Reddit.
Gotta say, I am very impressed.
I don't have screenshots, but on first cycle I got 5h45 min SOT( setting up the phone, social media, youtube, phone calls etc.) and 35% battery left when I left to sleep. First impressions are great, and I'm really liking this phone so far.
From 95 to 25.
Wifi and LTE casual browsing, lots of instagram, some streaming to chromecast.
Battery is fine.

It is purely wifi right?
7hr 15 min of SOT in 16hr 5 min of usage. 4G on whole time except the 7hr at night during which the battery dropped 6 percent.
Will update about how long it can go.

It's absolutely bonkers.
My result - heavy usage with navigation, taking pictures, changing countries and only via LTE, 3G, 2G
I am having massive battery drain. The launcher, phone app and voice calls are the main culprits. I have just charged my phone so I will be posting my stats when it drains below 20%
I am mostly on lte and a medium user. I am getting only 4.30 to 5 hrs of sot when the phone hits 15%.
10 mins of calls takes 4% of phone and voice calls. Is this normal?
Thanks in advance.

Not bad, my old device Xperia z2 would go down to 35% for similar usage.
My screen on time is 5 hours. And battery drains to 27%. It isn't bad, but it isn't half as good as what others are getting.
I'm getting terrible battery level life. See attached screenshots. The phone is also very warm and still discharges when plugged in via USB. Do I have a faulty unit? Any tips gladly received. I've reset it, formatted the SD Card (from my old phone). I'm at a loss.
My battery life on 1st full charge with dual sim usage on 4G: I am pretty impressed with it.

Very first 1 day, 6 hours of usage after my initial 100% full charge and I'm down to 10% with 7h 12m screen on time so far. And this during a time where I have setup the phone and played extensively around with every function here and there. So far I find it amazing.
Screen on time has been great so far, especially coming from S9+. I got 2 days of usage with 6.5h SOT and 20% battery left while also off screen downloading around 40GB of Tidal data, so SOT could be even higher. The biggest improvement compared to Sammy seems to be cellular data usage. Every Samsung I had, had crazy battery consumption on either 3G or 4G - stand by and SOT drain was 2-3 times higher compared to Wi-Fi. P30 doesn't seem to care whether on Wi-Fi or data and consumes around the same. Oh, and 20 minutes of Asphalt 9 ate 5% and 20 minutes of Wi-Fi Netflix drained 2%. Both on 50% brightness. So far so good.
Not happy with the battery life so far. Screen on time less than 8hours before I need to charge, brightness <50%, saving mode activated and phone only used for Web browsing and whatsapp. Is that normal?

Amazing battery life on this phone from
7+ hrs of SOT minimum every day without fail. the only phone that finally matched the battery life of my Mate 20 Pro, of which I had two and sold the last remaining one two days ago. fare thee well my loyal friend.
Awesome battery life from this little one.
Android 10 emui 10 is better than the 9.1.
With Google Photos setup to work only when I open the be app, location history and background scanning off everything is better them my last phone OnePlus 6T.
I am amazed whit the stability of Emui, even after update without clearing cache. The visual is far better on Android 10. I am very satisfied coming to Huawei from OnePlus.
anyone move to the P30 from P30 Pro? I am thinking of moving to the P30 from my P30 Pro, but I want to make sure it has the same great battery life.
Just got the phone from a friend. First day use and have found it has amazing battery life. Much much better than the oneplus devices which I previously used. Including the 8 pro.
All settings as standard, both WiFi and data on always. No adjustments to battery settings.
8 hr 30 min SOT 9%
Phone age: Between 1 year-2 years
Usage: Browsing, youtube, messenger, medium gaming

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
Amazing SOT
Fantastic battery life! 90hz+QHD with latest Ex Kernel.

The only kernel that officially supports the T series is Ex Kernel. However, I'm using Kirisakura Kernel atm without any issues on my 7T Pro.
Poor sot
I get around 5 to 5 and half hours max.
Disappointed as my friend gets 8 to 8 and half hours screen on time. What should I do?

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

Heavy use endurance

Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the OPPO Find X2 Pro's battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.

Hey,
I am trying the Oppo Find X2 Pro vs OP8pro a bit, just now doing a casual 30minutes of photography and videos during a walk:
OP8Pro: 8% Battery drain
Oppo: 11% Battery drain
In general, the oneplus seems to be a bit more refined on the software side.
I'm very happy with the oppo find x2 pro (vegan leather edition but the battery life isn't good comparing for example with oneplus 8 pro. Oneplus 8 pro had some battery issues in the beginning but oneplus fixed that with the latest update . Oppo has to do the same !
Oppo find x2 pro : Average use SOC approx 4 hours or maybe less .
Oneplus 8 pro : average use SOC 6-7 hours .
I'm in Germany and the software version of the phone is CPH2025_11_A.24

I think you should be getting way more than 4 hours SOC with average use. There is a thread somewhere about dirty flashing the ROM or such. I'm same firmware as you in UK and I get a full day 'average' use (average use is subjective). I think even with the screen on continually, I'd get more than 4 hours.

Thing is:
At work I'm only using WLAN and Bluetooth.
All other settings are the following:
Data off fhd+ adaptive hz, all unused apps are in energy safing mod.
When I arrive at home like 12 hrs later in total, I'm going in flightmodus only using WLAN.
Brightness is at automatic the whole time.
End of my story:
3 hry sot without a single minute of gaming or YouTube. Only medium usage with socal apps and Deezer.
I'm confused but I will try a factory reset.

Mmm your device seems defective, the battery of this phone is bad, lets be honest, I normally get 5 hours (all full) or 6-7 in automatic selection using it a lot, but 3 hours with everything automatic and without youtube nor gaming is not normal, something is wrong

Using GSam Battery Monitor to build up a profile of my battery usage, it currently reports that I can expect a full battery to last for 1 day 7 hours with a screen-on time of 5 hours 11 minutes. Not brilliant, but ok.
I know I could increase these times if I disabled the True Edge app I've installed but, as has been discussed on a different thread here, the Screen Light Effects built in to ColorOS to signal lock screen notifications isn't working for me and a lot of other people. The True Edge app does the same thing - and works! - but it's a bit of a battery hog.

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.
Also getting 7-8 hours screen time. impressed

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.
Very satisfied
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.
Do you think battery will get better with time?

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
