Hi,
First of all...I love this phone. Now that I have gotten that out of the way.
When I first got the phone for the first week or so, after taking it off the charger it would stay at 100% for roughly 4 hours even with minimal usage. I kind of like that, makes me feel like the phone has superior battery life.
Today, it started dropping from 100 like most phones I used in the past. Within an hour or so I was down to 96%.
What experience have you guys had with it staying at 100? How long do you guys generally stay at 100?
Thanks

Never 4 hours, but usually 15-30 mins of using it steadily in the morning.
The OS is probably building more status on battery usage and capacity and is now showing a more accurate representation of your battery level. Supposedly on each reboot the OS generates new battery stats.

This is due to the battery meter being inaccurate out of the box. It will adjust after a week or so.

Mines been quite poor, but it's been downloading and installing apps over LTE for hours. Not exactly a fair benchmark.
7 hours of screen on time with 10 percent battery lef. I'm satisfied

Same here. But when i finished installing it, I fully charged it around 9pm last night and it just went to 10% today at 1pm
I'm at 4h 40m screen on time, with 36% left in the tank. I put the mid batt saver on at 65%. At this point I'm pretty impressed.
The battery is downright impressive!

Yea I don't know what happen but my last 2 charges after that has been around 5 hrs max. I didn't do anything different. But I'm still satisfied with 5 hrs SOT
One thing that isn't mentioned enough is battery maintenance and care. A carefully maintained battery will last longer, and store more energy, therefore providing more time between charges. I have a lot of knowledge about lithium based batteries in the hobby grade Radio control models. I have been maintaining lithium polymer and lithium ion cells for about a decade. So I would like to compile some tips for everyone.
1) Heat. Heat causes the most damage to lithium based batteries. Leaving your phone in direct sunlight, as most of us know can cause your device to catch fire, or even explode. Water is useless in extinguishing a lithium fire. Lithium cells will burn under water. This isn't new info to most of us, but I mention heat mainly for these reasons;
A) rapid charging causes increased heat in the cell. This increased heat degrades the cell, causing reduced cycle life. This is significantly more concerning on modern phones without removable or replaceable cells. Therefore you should avoid rapid charging unless it's absolutely necessary. Especially overnight. If your sleeping then there's no reason to rapid charge.
2) Voltages. Voltages are also very important, but since these are managed automatically you don't need to be overly concerned about them.
A) 3.0v this is the minimum voltage at which your charger will still recharge the cell. Most phones will shut off at 3.3v or 3.2v. This is your 0% charge level. The reason this is significant is that once your phone shuts down from a dead battery it is important to recharge it within a reasonable timeframe. It may take a week or 2 for the cell to drop those last few tenths of a volt, but once it does it's over.
That said, it is good to completely drain your battery occasionally because this helps the OS calibrate a more accurate battery charge percentage.
B) 4.2v is fully charged. This is your 100% charge level.
C) 3.7v is the best voltage for cell storage. This is approximately 50% charge. That is why your phone is usually about half charged when it is unboxed. (But who stores their phone lol)
So the important takeaway from all of this is, avoid rapid charging when you can, and once your phone dies, recharge it soon after. -Chris
Not bad. Got me through the day. ~4 hrs sot
Too early to tell. I had like 3.30 SOT. After a couple of charge cycles it's getting interesting.

I went through 16 hrs of my average use and had 39% battery left before calling it a day. That's at least 30% more than what I was squeezing out my Note 4 on 6.0.1. Idling overnight for 7 hrs the battery went down only 4%.
I'm really impressed so far!
People getting 6+ hours SOT, can you let us know what your setup is like? Are you disabling stuff? Running dark theme?

If the question is for me....yeah, Material Dark Theme. Nova Launcher, no stuff disabled (Wi-FI/Loc/BT etc.). No app power saving. Hi resolution. I run "Optimize" once in the Device Maintenance menu.
I'll post a stats screenshot at the end of the day
I don't really trust any battery benchmarks right now..... the phones are all brand new...... lets all wait about 12 months and re-check them; While compared to the Note 3 my Note 7 replaced I am generally happy with the upgrade to the Note 7, the sealed battery is really pissing me off. I was using the Zero Lemon 10,000 mah batteries on the Note 3. I can almost gamble that the battery in the Note 7 will be useless in 12-24 months depending on usage and then we are stuck with $800 bricks unless someone figures out how to safely open the phone so we can replace the battery on our own.
Yesterday I had 7.2 hours of SOT. First few days were a little less, due to initial geek out, setup, testing. Seems on par with the my Note 5 and S7e.
What this shows me, is that I need to spend much less time in front of a phone's display....

For how I use the phone, I can easily get over 7 hours SOT....with 10% or more left. Yeah... I disable all the Sammy/Tmo bloatware I can....as well as Lookout, Android Pay, Facebook stuff...and a few others. I always use Nova 3.3 (the last before they switched to the horrible white themes of LP & MM) and I've been using a minimal black theme from the Sammy store, that has the color rings around some icons. Love it. I don't use auto brightness...and normally have it about 30-40%. I also don't ever use NFC, so it's disabled. I rarely use bluetooth....and i don't do any gaming really. I imagine if you're doing those things...battery life will suffer a bit.
Though I definitely think it helps to have an all black theme going. Settings, dialer, app drawer....solid black. And don't have the screen too bright of course.
I don't know how good or bad it will be but in my opinnion it's going to be average and its a note so i'll be using the phone a lot. I just bought the wireless charging case from the T-Mobile store i work at My coral blue comes tomorrow !!!

Is this right.. Of so it means after a year I would of lost 30 percent as I've had the phone for 6 months... This surely can't be true... Damn I miss the replaceable battery..

What your daily batre statistics are like. If you can still 24 hours and about 4-5 hours sot it is still good and in tolerance
Thanks battery still good... But to lose that much in 6 months not good
Hello i have also an issue , i had always used built in device maintenance feature , and it always told me after 100% charge, remaining time was about 20 hours, but for 2 days after full 100% charge, device maintenance tells me i had 12 hours left after full 100% charge, this is weird , i had done no change to any setting , except installing some games which i play , but why they reduce battery timing if i don't play them ? only installing them reduces battery time ?
Well i do not know for sure about this, i hardly ever use fast charging and i do not feel the battery drop since the first time usage a year ago. I can still use within 24hrs and get 8-9 hrs sot
I lost 28% in one year. Really says a lot about the quality of these batteries in the S7. By comparison, after a year my S6 lost less than 10%

I love the Accubattery app and use it in all my newer phones..It's education is spot on too..
Most people fully charge there battery everyday..Going over 80..Or 90% regularily, especially 95 and 100% having phone go to 4.3-4.35v is just plain bad for the overall battery health of a lithium ion battery..What it will do is degrade the longevity of the battery where as normally one should get 500 cycles to get to 75% health left it will get there much quicker and I see so many that have phones, like this one and other non replaceable battery models that have toasted batteries within a year..Toasted as in the life is much shorter and drains so much quicker and needs recharge by 2-4pm..
As for fast charge..Jury is still out..Battery researchers say at current levels of less then 1c fast charge rates it shouldn't make a difference but I say it does..At least a little..So I only use it when needed..Once or twice a week (and only up to 85%)..
But outside of that..Even when handled well,some batteries just aren't up to snuff and die quicker..

They are about the same and like all lithium ion's, will suffer same fate from over voltage (100% charges all the time)..And actually apple batteries seem to fall off a cliff sooner then most..We all know people with iPhones (that are older) that will hold far less a charge and many that hit 50% and die needed recharge immediately...Is what it is..
But if u do things right one can extend the overall longevity of a battery by a fair bit

Another thing to keep in mind and very few know this about the S7 Edge (and u can search and confirm this online and with Sammy),is that the real (useable) capacity of the battery is 3521mah and not 3600mah.. and this is because it is a 3600mah @ 4.4v battery but Sammy locks it out to max at 4.35v (which is actually a good thing for safety and to help with overall longevity of battery life thus reducing the useable mah to 3521.
So in my Accubattery I custom set my battery capacity to that 3521mah number.
And on a side note..I wish Sammy and phone manufacturers would build setting into the kernel that would allow a user to set a charge limit (say 80/85/90% for example) that would stop the charge or just trickle when left plugged in and not have it force it to 100% and keep trickling it at that max ...That is actually the main cause of battery life killer..Plugging in at night..Gets to 100% quick then has hours at overvoltage (plus higher temps) and those two things alone are 95% of cause for lithium ion killer

You can check your capacity using this :
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS7/comments/694urh/how_to_gauge_your_phone_battery_capacity_after/
When the S8 & S8+ were released, Samsung made a fairly bold claim that users would have 95% battery capacity left after a year. Being a current Note 4 user looking to upgrade to either the S8+ or the Note 8, I'm curious whether this claim holds any truth.
Thankfully, there is a great tool called AccuBattery which lets users estimate their remaining battery capacity based on charging data from a few charge & discharge cycles.
If you already have AccuBattery installed, I would love to hear what your estimated capacity is. Please vote in the poll and leave a comment.
If you don't have AccuBattery already, I can really recommend it since it seems to be a fairly accurate way of calculating your battery's remaining capacity.

The health section will give you the estimated capacity, but it needs a few charge & discharge cycles to work it out. In your screenshot it is still blank.
Yes that is pretty impressive! This is all making me feel less concerned about the battery being non-removable.
Mine is at 96% after three charge cycles using the app. The phone is one week old.

This could be due to slight variances in actual battery capacity or slight inaccuracy in AccuBattery's measurements. Hard to know.
After charging 125,972mah I still have 3466mah capacity left.
I do my best to keep the battery in the 30-80 range

It requires quite a few charging cycles to get an "accurate" measurement. I have found that if you keep the app open on the health page the estimated capacity goes up while you watch, so I take the measurements with a grain of salt.
After 5 months of usage.
Had mine since release date and I'm down to 92%. I'm tempted to make Samsung replace the battery tbh!

Impressive!
Haven't checked on my current S8+, but on my first one which I had from April to September, it was at 3430 mAh right before I sold it, which is 98%.
I'm at 88% after 6/7 months... I'm very disappointed about this... In one year my battery will be about 2800mah... If so will use the one year warranty on battery to have a new one...
My S8+ is now at 80% capacity. 8 months old and already lost 20% So much for Samsung’s claim of 5% degrade in a year.
Mine has quadrupled that claim in barley over half of a year

That doesn't sound right. I think Samsung will replace the battery for you if it goes below 80%.
How do you usually charge?

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 Google Pixel 5'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!
I took my Pixel 5 off charge at midnight last night and when i looked at it at this 8am morning i was amazed to see the battery was still at 100% (WiFi, 4g, NFC and Bluetooth all on)

I can also confirm that the battery life/standby drain is absolutely amazing.
Just today gsmarena also posted its battery stats on pixel 5, which got Endurance rating of 93h, which according to my own experience and usage pattern means its helluvah performer battery wise! Anything over 80h is good!
https://www.gsmarena.com/battery-test.php3
I thought i would just leave it to see what would happen overnight again, so i am still on the same charge as the first screen shot but i have 3 hours SOT time now.
The stand by drain isn't quite as good as I expected. I'm losing about 1/3% per hour. When my Pixel 2 XL was brand new it also drained about 1/3% per hour on stand by and that was with a smaller battery and less power efficient processor. I'm certinaly not complaining, 1/3% per hour is great. Just a little surprised that it's a tiny bit worse than my Pixel 2 XL.
Mine definitely seems worse than my 2XL - that would maybe lose 5-10% overnight, while the 5 seems more like 20% at the moment, even after 2 weeks for it to settle down.
Just loosing 1-3% over the complete night here. Maybe have a look into your battery statistics to find out whats causing this drain on your devices?
This is mine overnight again.

Same here. First night stayed at 100% as well, then next day synced everything and lost 2%, last night with flip to shh on I lost 1% over close to 8 hours. First Pixel where I'm not hunting for a plug out during the day. I have exercise tracking software I use pretty much daily so SOT doesn't really pertain when it's activity tracking with screen off. But still getting around 5 hours taken into account.
Just to add my battery indicator drops how i would expect it to with usage, i am not seeing this stuck bug thing people are seeing.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. I haven't used AOD on my Pixel 5 but I remember testing it on my Pixel 2 XL when it was new and stand by tripled from 1/3% per hour to about 1% per hour. So yeah 2% does seem really bad.

fantastic result. How is Spotify using little energy there? for me it consumes the battery a lot.
In addition, the standby time is very poor. Not using the phone at all, maybe he could handle it Three days. And so it barely lasts 2 days out of 3h SOT if I'm lucky. Of course, I can achieve 8-10h SOT in one time but the standby kills the batteries in the long run.
Hi all, just wanted to report my less than ideal standby drain.
My Pixel 2 XL used to behave better as someone previously commented - I can 100% confirm this.
My P5 would usually use around 0.8/1.1%/h with hibernation time of roughly 80/90% during screen off (AccuBattery stats).
The average values might be skewed a bit since during the day I often listen to Spotify via my TWS buds, but at night the graph doesn't lie: it's quite visible that something's going on, as per screenshots.
Unfortunately I took them after this morning's quick refill, but you can still see clearly that when I put it on my night stand it was at ~50% and I woke up in the high 30s...
The line is not even close to being flat.
Where has all the nice work around doze gone?
Also, why is it so hard for Google to let us know precisely what is using all that energy?
Any tips?
I'm not rooted, no AOD and all my sensors are on - I don't want to babysit my battery.
With this setup I was getting better standby efficiency with my 2XL, I'm sure.
I've already reported this to Google with logs, hopefully some upcoming monthly patch will include some standby optimization
