What do you expect when the device is sitting around and not being used? In real life, which means USING the device for a couple of hours per day, it is more like two to three days, with (on my device) screen-on-time of more than 15 hours. This is excellent!

When I tested it only on MIUI interface (learning new system for me) , I saw the battery decreasing it's counter in the eyes. Absolutely not optimised system.

Miui gives very good battery life, every reviewer will say same thing. You either have rogue apps eating your battery away, or unofficial vendor modified miui which can have various problems.

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.

Excellent
I originally rated this as 4*, but after further use, I'd rate it as 5 stars. By far and away the best battery life I have ever seen on a smartphone, and the first phone I can actually get through a long day with heavy use without issue. :good:

Lenovo P2 all the way. Though I would wait a couple of months until Asus optimizes their software or custom ROMs appear. Now it is pretty early to judge ASUS battery, but from what I ve seen, seems a little dissappointing

Can any of the device owners share their experience so far with it?
I'm on xiaomi.eu MIUI 10 open beta so battery life can be better when it's stable. Buts it's pretty decent right now I'm happy with it.
15 percent per hour if display is on. If display off than 0.5 percent.
On my usage I get two days.
Battery life is a good surprise, I'm using xiaomi eu
My MI 8 can reach upto 7h30 on-screen time, how about you #5 and #n?
The battery is what I was looking for in a smartphone. Constantly using it (web browsing, facebooking, gaming, youtubing, etc.) for a day, it could last around 8hrs or more, playing games heavily it could drop to 6hrs. I have been using the phone for around 2hrs per day, and it could last up to 3 days. Ah, I have Always-On enabled. My rom is still China, waiting for bypass time to unlock it.
How do you get that SOT? I'm on xiaomi.eu 8.8.30 and max I get is 5 hours

So you are on miui 10 beta, i am still on miui 9.6.7, i hope it is not the issue. I put most of my apps to "not running in background", some are set with no restriction. But the system still kills all apps once in a while, i am new to xiaomi phone so I still dont know if this can be disabled or not. I have not installed all of my daily drive apps because I want to unlock the bootloader and flash global rom first, i also hope this is not the issue
My normal standby drain is about 12hrs for 10%. Oh, I do go battery settings to solve any detected issues when I am on break. I also hide the notch.
Battery life is solid, running china dev and i get 2 days with total ot 5+ hours SOT. For a non stop use indoor i can go 8+ hours
xiaomi.eu ROM (up to 8.8.30) drains battery fast, 15-20% per hour with screen on, = maximum of 4.5-5h SOT. With global stable or global beta ROM getting around 8-8.5h SOT, 10-15% during usage.
Yesterday i bought the phone, fully charged and at 25% i got 7h+ screen on time.. which is completely amazing!! Global stable 9.6 here..
You can easily get over 7 hours of SOT, and more than 30 hours on one charge.

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...
