Battery usage under light use has been fantastic. Charged 22hrs ago and currently at 84% remaining.

That is really great stanby time. Reminds me of times when phones would last weeks on a charge....could be a challenge for the MG8P ^^
I will try to max out this light usage with some settings of my own. I don't blive dark mode will make any difference because MG8P has LCD panel however it's easier on the eyes and it's easier for me to read.
I turned off all animations, install lite version of some apps and see what happens on my next charge
^^
Screen shot below.
Dark mode will have an effect on battery, it may by minor however. I have it on dark mode and agree, it is easier on the eye.
My current battery stats from noon yesterday. My usage on dark mode and without animations was inconsistent however I will return to it and see how it works
A day off the battery for me I hope I can go three days
Made it to 10 hours of screen on time
And 2 days of battery damn this phone's battery i
S amazing

If you have a new device it will improve a bit. I charge my phone 2-3 a week Most i got was about 4 days with 10 SOT ^^
Going on Day 4
47% left. Light use due to lack of case.
About 2 days

I guess this is more medium use than heavy or light, but coming from a 6p with a dying battery and the shut off issue, I woke up this morning on 100%, unplugged it at 4am when I woke up to close the windows and go back to sleep, with my phone set up from unboxing it yesterday, but not 'de-bloated' or anything. Wifi, BT,Data and Location are on, the auto screen adjustment is taking care of that, and I've been:
Facebook
Messenger
Hangouts
Browsing Forums
Playing a few games
Showing it off to colleagues etc
Currently sat at 81%, which is very impressive, 6p would be on charge by now! Will see what it's like with the same sort of use (which is my usual use tbh) by bedtime.
Coming from the, 1+5 with a smaller battery i did expect more stamina, albeit with a higher resolution screen as well as larger.
But even with the same apps installed and the same routine it just doesnt compare.
Cleared 10 hours SOT with the 1+5 quite easily, the pro barely makes that.
Probably the system or CPU /GPU causing it.
Nothing wrong with the battery but there are definitely better performers out there
I think it's pretty enduring with light usage.
With the last charge, I had 2,5D of standby and 5.5h DOT. Mostly web, emails and Toy Blast because I was stuck in a traffic jam for hours and needed something to play....
how the hell are you guys achieving these numbers? i'm at 26hrs standby, only 1:03 SOT, and i'm at 52 percent. i've optimized the living hell out of the settings and app starts. at least i know what's possible for others
How long have you been using it? I'm currently at 26h standby, 0.4h DOT and 84%. I have already ran a data backup, been on the phone for 40 minutes and did some emailing. BUT let me tell you, it was not like this from the beginning. I also have been optimizing the phone like a maniac because out of the box, I would only get like 30h standby and 2.5h DOT which is ridiculous. But I only recently noticed that the phone got gradually better after around 3 weeks with this device.
With light use, I am getting through two days of use before I have to recharge. Pretty standard.
I was very busy this week and didn't have much time to use my phone and here what happened , my SOT was 3 hours 28 minutes but idle time is interesting
Of course, this is not my usual result, usually i charge my phone every second or third day, and sot can be 10 hours, so i'm happy with battery, definitely

I'm loving this ridiculous battery and SOC, I am an actual light user anyway but the time since last full charge is just shy of 9 days and I've got over 4 days left. Awesome stuff.

Dito that! After I received my phone, I did a full charge and tested SOT for my kind of light usage. Stopped the test after 12:21h SOT (25h after charging) with 19% battery left.
I'm comming from a Moto G4, which even heavily tweaked to be energy efficient hardly ever got more than 6h+ of SOT.
Hello, I'm creating an account in order to give my real-life review of this phone. The previous phones I had were HTC One M8, LG G6.
Light use endurance is fantastic.
Phone can last me 3 straight days on battery.

10 hours screen on time+ 2 days of light use
3 days or about 10 hours of screen on time. mainly it depends on screen brightness and things you are doing e.g. gaming and stuff.
I've got a solid 2 days with a single charge and I always do a 80% battery MAX for recharging.
Most of the time when I plug in I am still over 20% in the 20-30% zone.
On days when I used the phone more I may occasionally end up around 15% but never bellow that is my bottom min for plugging in wall charger (NO FAST CHARGE).
I mostly type messages (text, mails, telegram...) and I have scripts running to enhance powersaving.
For example in low light environment (75lux) my screen brightness is set to static value of 7%. Rest of the time in is in Auto. My BT is set to turn off automatically if no devices are connected and my Wifi turns off automatically if no known network have been seen around for a while.
All my messaging app, or apps I want to receive notifications from are running from start without any battery restriction.
Battery saver is set to turn on everyday past 9PM to 7AM, and phone powers off at 11PM every day.
However MIUI optimization is turned down completely. It was giving me too many errors upon xapk installations and I am still to see any benefits from running it. At least I have no battery gain from having it on or off.
Ah oh yeah I am on stock A9 and not willing to go to A10 either stock or custom, at the moment I do not consider it stable enough. I just wish there would be someone willing to port LOS 16... (A9).
I know the phone would do 2 days easy without those, but it is more of me willing to be energy efficient, even if that's only for 3-5 extra battery % in the end, that's exactly those extra % you need when you have to make that call when you are bellow 15%
Great phone.
Hope this helps.

even if you use it lightly you need to frequently re-charge
I get 2+ days if I don't play with my apps too much. I do use Greenify w/o root w/adb

I guess you are running stock Android 12. Its full of bugs and drains battery a lot. Either downgrade it to 11 or use custom 12 ROM. Here's mine running android 10.

He's just relaying the general consensus re: best practice for battery longevity...it's best to not let your battery get too low b4 charging and only charge to 80% if u need the max possible battery lifetime. Imo that's for those who don't/can't upgrade often and need their phones to last 3-4+ years under heavy use. I try and get a new phone every 2 years so I charge to 90% and 'try' to charge b4 my batt saver activates at 15%.

Oh, my bad. Me too keep my phones for 3-4 years. And I also charge my phone till 80% only. With 100% full charge its a 2 day phone for me. I have a 3 year old iPhone XR and battery health still at 90%.

2 full working days of battery life. More or less 40 hours.
With mostly inside usage, with light usage it lasts for 2 days and 2 nights. You can get around 6 hours sot with 2 days light usage or around 9h sot in 1 day light usage. If you are using screen a lot on direct sunshine with brightness boost, be prepared for lower endurance. You can get down to 5h from 9h sot on light usage on direct sunlight. You can empty it in few hours when you are gaming on direct sunlight.
In real life when I go for a one day trip. Whole day usage on direct sunlight, using maps to check the way time to time. Take around hundred of photos and some videos. Checking internet and social media time to time, checking and sending photos, operating drone through the drone's mobile app for 20 minutes and just using it normally, it will last one day with around 5 hours sot during those activities.
I was never able to discharge the phone faster than in one day. Btw. I don't use 5g networks.
