On what brightness?

Only went thru' 3 battery cycles here, after the initial one i got 9h30 screen on time each time, i don't play games either.

8-9 hours for me. little to no gaming

Could you guys past your screen brightness that you normally user also... That has a lot to do with battery life. I , for instance, have my brightness at about 40% at any given time.

My personal best was 10.5 hours of screen time on a 48 hour battery cycle. No gaming, just web surfing, streaming google music occasionally. This was mostly reading comics on comicwrack.
Edit: lowest brightness possible as I read in the dark.

Is battery life improvable through a software update? Kind if off topic ..

I've gotten 7-9 hours every time on a mix of auto brightness and manual set around 15%.
Anything higher than 25% is uncomfortable for me unless I'm outside or something.
This is primarily web browsing and such. Videos drain a bit faster and games much much faster.
There's plenty of proof in the various posts about battery life.

I would say about 4h. I'm in a really critical position..

Between 6 and 8 hours here depending on what I do with it. Brightness set to lowest setting mostly, Google Now turned off and WiFi set to off during sleep.

I get from 7-9 hours consistently with wifi off when screen is off and watching shows, browsing xda, Internet, pulse, reddit and occasional gaming for about 10-20 minutes. I once got about 10 hours but that was when mainly reading lecture notes and making my own notes via pen and paper. My brightness is about 15-20 or if it's sunny then around 40%.
Certain apps have a tendency to keep your tablet or even phone awake. You could download 'betterbatterystats' which is on xda somewhere for free and judge what is keeping it up by looking at 'partial wakelocks' or if you are rooted, 'alarms' (what awakes your tablet up when it should be sleeping). Typical culprits for me are Google Now and Maps and for some reason, The Economist app. If you turn off Location Reporting, that can help battery alot, but if you need it on, make sure that the apps which need it aren't unnecessarily waking up your tablet.
No way should you be getting any less than 5-6 really, even if using it at max capacity. I watched around 2 films and a couple of episodes of shows for a max on screen time of about 5-6 hours before and probably still had 30% left.

Nexus 10 battery life

Hey everyone. I ordered my Nexus 10 in late March and just had a question: How much actual battery life do you get out of your N10? I found that I was barely able to get a day out of mine and am awaiting a RMA replacement. I did a Netflix test, where I charged it to 100%, unplugged and played Futurama on Netflix. I got about 5 hours 12 minutes before the device shut off. I have my screen brightness at 50% and no apps that would cause heavy background usage.
That is pretty good battery life for 50% screen brightness. I still cant comprehend why people need their brightness at 50% or even higher though.

Some people like me use their tablet in brightly lit rooms and outside which means in order to see the screen you need to have the brightness cranked. I never use my tablet in dim rooms.
7 hours man. That is too much

What do you have your brightness set to?
I'm on on the 2nd charge cycle, but I got almost 5hrs screen time on last charge with about 30% battery left before putting it on the charger. Pretty good in my opinion.

Mostly web surfing, youtube, gmail, G+ and facebook. Not too intensive, I suppose.
I have all sync on except for facebook and display on auto brightness. I also have a strong wifi signal most of the time.
When my tablet is AT HOME WITH ME instead of off cavorting around Samsung repair centers, its day starts about 6:45am. With all my apps and syncing, it lasts me through a work day and then some, going as late as 11:00pm and still being at 30% battery or more, depending on how much gaming I did.

When I am inside it is at minimum (which is still too bright), outside is between 25-35%
For the people who have really low battery, I have a good hunch that the problem is how much wifi sucks up. When I have wifi on I can feel the tablet is much hotter than normal, which means it is dissipating a lot of power. I suspect that the wifi traffic is the 2nd biggest battery drain for people who are browsing all day, the 1st most being the screen itself.

11 hers for me.... No gaming for that amount but still. How much more do you want
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
It seems there is a common trend with people who have long battery lives - low brightness. My eyesight is pretty bad so I really can't stand setting it any lower than 40%.
I get about 7 hours before it needs a charge and that's mostly browsing with wifi, which sounds around right according to claimed stats by Google. I'm on around 20% brightness, doesn't need to be higher.
About 8 hours, which is a full workday for me, mostly Evernote/webbrowsing/mails - no gaming. I usuall have ~20% left, so there's 1-2 hours more for emergencies.
I just ran both my original and RMA units side by side, factory reset and unrooted on Youtube playing a 10 hour loop video with brightness set to 100% and at 5h 6 minutes my original N10 hit the 15% warning, the RMA a few minutes later....so I feel kind of bad for wasting Googles time.
I think kernel and ROM have something to do with battery as well as WiFi. I have great signal and use 5ghz and I get great battery life with little drain. Before ras came to the n10 I was using cm and got amazing battery on the kernel it came with but horrible life on paranoid (early build). Also the first trinity kernels had poor battery life for me.

Is my Nexus 10 faulty?

I've had it for around a week now but I've yet to get over 6hrs battery life. I keep the display on the dimmest setting, have no bluetooth or anything on apart from wifi. I keep location services and Google Now off and I use it mainly for Internet browsing, you tube and a couple of bejewelled type games for around 10 mins a day. I haven't watched any films on it or played any real heavy duty cpu smashing games at all.
No matter what I do, I just don't get any more than 6hrs before I get the 15% battery warning.
I don't appear to have any wake locks, the battery graph shows that when the display is off, the tablet never seems to be awake.
I installed Better Battery Stats but I don't really understand what to look for.
Can anyone suggest anything before I give Google a call and they tell me factory reset and try again?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Mind posting a picture of your betterbattery with:
-Partial wake locks since boot
-Other since boot
If you use it like you explained you should be getting more than 6 hours.
I'm using a custom rom and kernel so that might explain why I can idle for an entire day and only lose around 6-8% depending on how many emails I get.
Typically I get around 8 hours of use which includes watching movies over stream, YouTube, flip board, email, xda surfing, and a few other things.

Charge your device to 100% and use your device the way you typically have been. Once you get down to red numbers, post a screen shot of the regular Android system battery usage. That might give a better picture of what's going on.
You can also charge to 100% and disconnect from the charger and let your device idle. Better battery stats is a better tool to use when you aren't using your tablet, and you are experiencing battery drain.
Also, you didn't mention whether you are stock, rooted, or rooted and ROM'ed. Please do that and we can go from there.

You said 6 hours battery life in OP, implying you were getting that battery life for the device... ._.
Congrats. You have a normal device... People may be using screen filter to get those results, but why not just enjoy the screen instead of gimping it for an extra hour or two of dimly viewed screen...It's not too tough to charge it overnight.

And if its really that big an issue, go get KTManta, Franco, or any kernel that lets you reduce the maximum clock from 1.7 to 1.3 or 1.2 GHz. I have benchmarks for the Manta at frequencies ranging from 1.2 to 2.1GHz and there's not a big difference in performance.

LG G2 android system usage?

I've noticed that even when I usey phone a lot of the day with screen on that my G2 is the first phone that the android system always uses more battery than the screen and I do not understand that. Every other phone I have had in the past(and it has been a lot because I'm a Verizon rep) my display takes much more battery. I notice that there is a ton of LG's crap running under android system, is that why I'm not seeing the battery life I would expect out of a 3000mah phone. I'm getting about 17-18hrs out of it. Which is good. But it's not Great! Any insight would be cool.

Something that falls under the Android System category can trigger and go rogue, causing idle drain to be way higher than it should be. Its happened to me 3 times in two weeks, and a reboot cleared it up each time. I'm not certain as to the culprit as it wasn't obvious in BBS.

Restarts, root, reflash, nothing has helped so far. I've gone as far as disabling everything I can that is lg and the system still uses more.

But, get easily 6hours screen time? how much screen time you got?
Android system always top i think because this device have GRAM
Make screen usage is very little, thats why.
If this device doesn't have GRAM maybe screen always on top but with worst battery life

No that is not why, the "GRAM" as you call it is simply a tiny amount of memory that is dedicated to storing a screenshot on what is on the screen and will shut down the GPU if a static image is on screen for more than 10 or 15 seconds. It has nothing to do with the screen drawing power.
Android System covers a ton of things on the phone, you need a better app that looks into individual processes to see which part is actually causing the excessive drain.
Hmm, im not sure but before own G2 i own G Pro.
Screen usage on G Pro always on top, android system is nowhere near. But battery life G2 is much better even android system always on top.

I've been having real battery problems on my G2 as well - I found threads online attributing battery problems to the latest version of Google Play Services which can also raise the system usage. Turning off Wifi Location at the device level fixed the battery drain for me - it sucks to have to turn it off but it's clear that my battery drops like a truck with it on, is totally fine with it off.
Can anyone confim that this is normal? i have an LG g2 with 3000mah and i loose 1% of battery every MINUTE while playing games, so 10 minutes of modern combat 4 or plats vs zombies is around 10 % (strange because the graphics complexity is very different) , 60-70% brightness, sound half way or headphones. Some people are speaking about "5h of screen time easily" while i get 2-3h ... some site even says " When we had kept the WiFi and 3G network on for a whole day, had surfed for around 3 hours, played games for about 1 hour, watched videos for around 1.5 hours and had talked for 2 hours we were able to get back up for 1.5 days.

Normal, depending what game you play.
MC4 and PVZ is heavy games. If you play simple game like cartoon war you will see the result is different.
Never ever heard smartphone can play MC4 straight in 5 hours
well, mc 4 and pvz are both very different and i would dare saying mc4 is much more demanding in gpu and cpu, but whatever game i play its always the same. And i will surprise you - i found someone on this forum saying he actually played pvs for 5h ...that would be impossibru on my phone.
---------- Post added at 10:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 AM ----------
in addition i find it strange, that even though the battery is draining at rate of 10% per 10 minutes in average, after all in battery use menu it says the game has consumed only 2-4% of all with android system and media server on top as usual. Maybe the game isnt that battery draining but something else turns on while playing and eats the battery...

1 30h of screen on time, 30 % left. And i swear i havent been playing for more than 40-50 min...

wrong wrong wrong wrong. it does not matter what output the user has on the screen. what matters is the optimization in the code. MC4 can be super optimized while PVZ can be made in paint and you will have the same battery usage. And 1% while playing games, no matter what game it is, it is OK in terms of usage.

Battery life struggles

Is anyone else struggling to get more than 3hrs screen on time in a 12 hour day. I don't game or watch a lot of videos. It seems like the phone isn't going to sleep when I'm not using it. Just testing the waters if my unit is defective. I mostly web browse and read stuff on g+. My screen brightness is a little less than half with adaptive brightness on and enhanced voice over lte is disabled on Verizon. Thanks for the help.

3 hours of screen on time seems pretty good for a phone with a screen this big and with brightness around half way up. Is 3 hours SOT bringing you down to like 0 battery?
What do your battery stats say that make you think your phone isn't sleeping?
I only really tested the battery and checked the stats twice and I think the second time I had 2.5 hours of SOT over the course of 13 hours and my battery was at about 38% (also on Verizon).
I think that is pretty reasonable. If I could get 4 hours of SOT from full battery until dead I would be fine with it. Others have been posting much longer battery lives though.
I have read on this forum that one person tested the phone with the screen looping a video at full brightness and it lasted over 5 hours. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63642067&postcount=391
Some people are showing screen shots of over 5 hours of SOT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63690175&postcount=462
Off charge 23 hrs ,been using mix if WiFi and 4G all day and some poor signal areas

I found my moto 360 was keeping my phone awake (possible bug?). so I disconnected my watch and the phone actually slept when the screen was off! Give it a try!
I just have a pebble but I'll give it a try.
At 2 hours in 13 mins screen on time. Phone seems to be sleeping now but there is a bug in my battery stats. Any clue?
Here are the screen shots
Still not impressed. The phone isn't staying awake now that I disabled Bluetooth but isn't going to doze. I have purposely tried not to use my phone today.
Battery is terrible. I'm hoping once some new kernals hit it gets better... Because right now I'm thinking of returning this thing.

I am not sure why people keep complaining about BT on. I leave mine on all the time. Although i don't use my smart watch any more, so it is only connected in my car and my BT speakers at home when I want to listen to music in bedroom or so. I don't have any drains. I get 4-5 hours SOT in 24 hours. This is a first for me always owning nexus in the past. I am very happy. I also started testing the force doze mode on screen off setting with greenify today. It is making standby noticeably even better.
First day with pretty heavy use. The best battery I've had in a phone.

Install gsm battery and find what is sucking it down.
I bet anything those having battery trouble have apps syncing in the background like facebook, email, etc. My phone has been of the charger since 9am it's now 1am I have 2:20 sot with 58% battery left

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the ASUS ROG Phone II before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Nothing yet? ?
I've gotten about 6.5 hours of screen on time. With it at 120hz and playing a lot of games. I'll have to chart my display next time. Though gaming tends to drain it a bit quicker.

How is batterylife with "normal usage?" Watching YouTube, checking Facebook, gaming a little, etc.
I usually do like a solid hour or so of gaming and have my screen on at work to watch YouTube videos and podcasts so for an 8 hour day my screen is on, I work 7/4 and make it home with about 45% left. Then I more or less use steam link until about 10pm, forget to charge my phone and wake up with my phone at like 18ish percent left.

Got any pictures of battery-usage without any (or just a little gaming)? I just want to see how batterylife is when using it "as a normal phone." Maybe just 60/90hz too?
Yeah here we are. Now I'm about to game until the phone hits 9%
This is with the screen set to 90hz
The battery life on this phone is incredible!! I'm now sitting at 1 day and 4 hours off the charger, with 7 hours and 5 minutes of screen on time, and I STILL have 53% battery remaining! That includes a couple hours of emulator gaming as well. Brightness has generally been around 50% (though adaptive brightness is on so it fluctuates up and down), and screen has been set to 120hz most of that time. WiFi on, Bluetooth on, mobile data on, location on, no battery saving modes set.
Can attest to this. 9 hours and going strong. Going to game until the end of night and check in. 120hz medium brightness.
Update to my previous post above:
Phone finally died! Final battery stats before it died was two full days off the charger (48+ hours), 13 hours of screen on time, including several hours of emulator gaming. WiFi on, Bluetooth on, Mobile data on, location on, mix on 90hz and 120hz screen setting, 50% brightness with adaptive brightness on. I was just using my phone as normal the entire time, I was NOT trying to stretch the battery life as long as possible.

I was just using my phone as normal the entire time, I was NOT trying to stretch the battery life as long as possible.

Battery life is mind blowing
Hi,
Don't know if this is the right thread to ask this question.
I have less than 10 post as of the moment so please forgive if i cannot add an image.
I have the CN version which I converted to WW (PKQ1.190414.01)
All is working well except for the SoT of the device. Google Play services is eating a big bulk of my battery.
As of this posting my battery percentage is at 70% with google play services at the top of the list for the most battery drain @ 11% and screen usage is only 5%.
I did not do any gaming only social media for about 45 mins and youtube for 2 hrs.
Can anybody give me advice? thanks!
Steps currently taken:
-clear cache of google play services
-remove account auto sync
-disabled location services

Have you tried rebooting? This seems a little high, but not unreasonable battery drain if using high brightness and mostly using data.
Looking forward to trying out the battery today. Last night my son and I both played on a Razer Phone 2 and an iPhone XS. He was playing the latter - some Apple Arcade racing game that worked for a 3 year old; I was playing Asphalt on the RP2. Battery on the iPhone XS got hammered pretty quickly. The Razer was solid, but holy cow it got wicked hot.

Yeah that's high. I'm currently sitting at 71% battery on my ROG Phone 2 (same model as yours) and Google Play Services has only used 1% of that battery according to the built in battery page. I'd say, if you told the phone to restore apps and settings from a previous device during setup, you have a rogue app that got copied over or installed that's eating battery via Google Play Services...
