Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the Note5'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.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
When using the Note5 heavily, I can get through an entire day...but barely. Like if phone comes off the charger at 7am and I beat the crap out of it with tons of use, it'll be at around 10% by 8 or 9pm. If I'm going out, I just put it on the fast charger and bam, I'm back up to 50% in like 30 minutes.
I'm getting 8hrs sot, with WiFi running continuous, but mobile data off,I'm moderate user,still my previous phone didn't last me a day,but thanks to this phone now I'm carefree about battery,well at least for me the quest for better battery ends

man this phone battery sucks, i use sometimes facebook, and have some news apps , some youtube, email, and bit of this and that
i charge it overnight and leave home at 8 am
and at 7 pm the phone battery is dead that is such a bad battery i wish to know how the people here praise its battery it really is bad
HI Man, it is as same as me
man today it ran out of battery so fast by 5pm it is dead, and i barely used it . Oh man i feel i did a huge mistake buying this phone
i tried factory restting it and still the same
this is so so so bad that i am so missing my iphone which was working great and had an amazing battery life
and add salt to the injury i ended up buying the sm-n920k which is the korean version and this has no rom support what so ever here on xda
i am so disappointed
For those of you that are having a lot of trouble getting through a day, I'd highly recommend this http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563 because I got at a minimum 150% of my original screen on time compared to when I just got the phone.
Guys i don y know what you re doing but my battery life is amazing. By far the best phone and battery money can buy at the moment. Check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=63851201
I'm not sure what you people with terrible battery life are doing. I hardly used my phone today but it's still been on for a while. Switch to T-mobile and put some cool stuff on it. I am by no means an android expert, but the quest for battery life is how I discovered XDA.
My experience is different. With moderate use i drain about 12% an hour. Then again im on the moar rom with no bloatware running in back ground. But heck even with heavy use. I have yet to see the phone less than 50%.
i am not using my phone when i at work and now 16:15pm. unplugged at 07:00am. total 12,5 hours on. SOT is 1 hours and now phone at %37. Heavy AndroidSystem and AndroidOS battery drain. i tried to use my phone without root for one week but impossible. %5 per hour. Battery graphic is going down everytime!!! This is so stupid!! again i will root my phone and i will use custom kernel and again everything will be fine again.
1) samsung dont know how to code a good kernel
2) without root note 5 is worst multitasking phone with huge 4gb of ram
3) without root i cant even delete that never use and never wanted phones by me (facebook or instagram or other bull****s)
4) without root i cannot use my phone without lagfree( because i must disable or delete some useless apps that allways sits on my RAM!!)
5) i paying lots of money and for use a good phone i must forget my guarantie!!
Thanks a lot samsung! note 5 will be my last samsung phone
Actually we must talk about that! Thanks !!

I get very decent battery life, check this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/battery-life-discussion-t3178480
I currently have all of the bloatware running, as well. I used to use Package Disabler Pro, but no longer find that I need to use it for battery life. 99% of the time I am NOT using wifi either.
Things I have done (to the best of my memory):
1. Disabled VOLTE
2. Wifi calling
3. Turn off location history
4. Remove Android Device Manager as a Device Administrator
5. Screen brightness set pretty low, but I have it set to auto as well
Probably a couple of other things I missed, but I believe those optimizations have greatly improved battery life on my phone.
Hope this helps.

Any one has this problem after the latest update i have battery drian faster and my phone always has used more than 85% from ram.(Note5 SM_N920c)???
i would say this accounts for heavy use...a little bit of everything but.mostly youtube 1440p videos with almost full brightness...some facebook, browsing,games, etc...only wifi. from this point till i reach 5% i ll use only data to.simulate further heavy usage - so i ll update the info as soon as i reach 5% or so...
my config : darthstalker v5, skyhigh kernel 2.6 undervolted by around -100mv on almost everything, if you want i ll post links to the synapse settings from othe threads...and frequencies locked to a57 min @600 max @2400mhz, a53 min @300 max @1500mhz, gpu 266/600mhz. coming up - only data connection from 51% to 5%.
and here s the end result (so basically 49% spent only on wifi and another 46% spent only on data...

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 Honor 6X before depleting the battery.

SOT can be stretched till 10 hours on this phone.
i used this phone for mira cast for a movie around 3.5 hours and battery drain was from 71% to 28%.
I can easily score 6 hours of SOT from this device. ( wifi always On , Data On when wifi not available , GPS On , 50% Brigtness ).
Since it's a 1080p IPS panel, I think you could probably get around 5-6 hours screen on time with the Honor 6X.

If you don't use your device that often for gaming or as a media player, you will get more screen on time with it. I am impressed that you managed 10 hours of screen on time with the Honor 6x!

You should be able to get over 6 hours screen on time with a FHD display pretty easily and if it was an AMOLED display it would be much easier.
I just scored over 7 hours on 29 hours of battery life. Best I've ever seen for a non rooted device. I'm hard pressed on my decision to keep this phone. I'm not concerned with development, so that's not a factor. Im searching for unlocked phones for at or around $400 to replace my LG v20 and my wife's note 5. So far I'm happy with it. I only wish the screen had a bit more pop to it. My v20 is also LCD, but the colors seem abit more alive. I played with the mate 9 at best buy the other day and that screen seemed amazing for an LCD. Considering the size of the battery in that phone plus Nougat, and the changes in emui5, I'm almost leaning that way, then it blows my whole point of looking for a budget minded flagship specced phone.

This is the highest I achieved so far.If you are away from power source for a long time you may need to try this.I used power saver in l speed mode+ reduced resolution+set cpu governer to powersave. There was no much lag,may be because of reduced resolution.I used data all time,mainly whatsapp and browsing,tethered for some time,and watched videos .I think it may be possible to extend time further if you really need.please try and report.

I use my phone for email(work and gmail) , whatsapp , Youtube and reddit with the odd web search here and there. With a mix of lte and wifi and adaptive brightness off (I adjust brightness from 50% to 100% manualy) I get around 5 to 6 hours Screen on time with the most ive ever gotten being 6hours and 30 minutes. Will try naptime with adb commands and see if I can get better results.
the battery is poor, with my z2 and z3 i got most than 12h without a charge, this poop i got 5 or 6 hours ?? i think is because lcd screen. i regret to downgrade from my z3
Battery is poor due bloatware , I disable all and my phone last up to 2 days with a moderate use . Also , GPS , Wireless , Data and Bluetooth are used only on purpose , all those are OFF . So in my opinion battery is great or at least is trendy...
With naptime the most I got was 7 hours SOT. The phone still lasts a full day before needing a charge and I charge my phone when it reaches 20%.
Generally if I use 4g a lot I get around 5 to 6 hours SOT.

Hy guys! I have never had such an amazing phone with a such a great battery! My last phone was a Mi Max 3 and was very hard for me to let it go because of the humongous battery of 5500mAh. I am using this Redmi Note 9S for two days and still have juice in it. Remember that it was charged just once and all the installation, backup, and the new start was made during this cycle. 80% i was only in Wifi but in my area the gsm signal is not that great and i choose the 2G network. The drain over night is maximum 1% with 2G and wifi off. Good luck guys!
Bought it for my wife, and she is using over 10hrs SOT with moderate usage (calling, FB, WhatsApp, YouTube). Charging alternate day after reaching down to ~10%. Battery life (and fast charging) is the most likeable feature of this phone.
Use it all day in quarantine, easily lasts me through the day with heavy usage
Not too amazing, Oneplus 5T I had before this had the same SOT, same usage. I blame MIUI, can't wait to get ROMs, ports, etc. I'm here for a long time.
In the 336hr period to unlock bootloader, will try Xaiomi Eu and report it's SOT as well.
This is the best SoT I have gotten till now. Phone is running MIUI 11.0.4 debloated. It is by far the best battery life one can dream of.

My SOT on Xiaomi Eu Rom, fastboot installed, magisk rooted, encrypted, pitch black recovery.
Pretty much the same story, all that debloat still didn't help, it introduced more bugs and stutters actually. Camera says 60fps, but has stutters in the video and UI. Overall, wouldn't recommend. Better off just hiding the bloat and using the phone like I did prior to Xiaomi eu ROM.
WHich apps and feature were you debloated. Tell me...

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
