As mentioned else where I got decent run time out of the tablet so far. 10 hours screen time, over a 48 hour charge period.
Screen time included the following, all run in DeX mode
4 hours of Netflix (local content)
2 hours of 1 type of game full screen (semi intensive on graphics)
3 hours of another game, mix of intensive and easy on graphics
30 min load time and partial screen time for Fortnite
30 min just playing around (Facebook, Web, etc)

I play DC legends for at least an hour at night and an hour in the morning. When I use my note 8, it uses at least 10-15% an hour. On the new Tab it's more like 5%, still a little worse than the ipad 10.5 pro which I have found to be incredible or battery life(but it's IOS and that's crap). I love the new tab, but I really wish someone would take the effort to build the kind of tablet hardware apple does, but for android.

I play two games that seem to be CPU/GPU or battery intensive games. Marvel Puzzle Quest and Animation Throwdown. I play both daily, and the phone can still last from when I wake up until when I go to sleep. Very impressed. I tend to get about 4 to 5 hours of screen on time.
Compared to my previous phone, the GS7, it is much better. The GS7 would not be able to last through half the day with that type of usage. I would need to charge it through out the day.
I'm not sure if that's a credit to the Snapdragon 835 being more efficient or that SONY phones have less stuff running in the background. Could be both I suppose. I remember my old Z3c having better battery life than my GS7 running on the old Snapdragon 801.
Yesterday I had close to 9 hours SOT and about 10% left. I was on Wi-Fi all day and at about 50% brightness. I used Newpipe, WhatsApp, reddit is fun, and MX Player all day long, often in multiwindow mode. I never bother to use Stamina mode. The battery life on this thing is spectacular.

i played pubg on the highest settings for and hour and half and it used 20% so thats great
M5 8.4 Chinese lte
I've been at a trade show and using Wi-Fi sporadically searching stuff and used 22% over the course of 24 hours
Really really good, ive been using it hooked up to external hard-drives (ones that use more than 500ma!) and it doesn't make much of a dent at all! It's better than my previous laptops still!
I've taken this on a 7 hour flight and was watching Plex offline movies for 6 hours. Had about 15% battery life left which to me is excellent.

My current record is 8 hours and 45 minutes SoT from 100% to 0% battery in one take, this is with screen brightness at 50% at all time.
It was mostly watching full HD videos with heavy browsing. I was using mobile data the entire time. The phone barely got warm.
It`s my first phone with samoled screen and I was lost within the beauty of it. I came to my senses only when I got the warning for low battery but then decided to continue and see how long it will endure. My eyes got little f* up after that. I had to rest for long time so I don`t plan to repeat it any time soon.

First phone I've had that can endure almost 4 hours of solid Pokemon Go (3 hours community day plus about an hour sorting out the spoils and evolving them to get the special move before the hour is up) not only that but also had like 25% battery left afterwards. Very impressed, I didn't think any phone could do that.
6 hours of SOT with Waze and Uber Driver. Amazing!
3 hours and 15 minutes from 100% to 15% (when battery saver automatically kicks in....wish there was a way to disable this), playing Retroarch emulator with some of the most intensive CPU games around (Espgaluda 2, Dodonpachi Daiffukatsu, Deathsmiles). The CPU stays at full speed and the phone gets quite warm overtime, but the games are very smooth

But, you actually have like 4 hours SOT (and 25% left, so in total maybe 5 if you kept playing).

Yes and that's very good for Pokemon Go. It's a very thirsty app normally and no other phone I've had has managed more than a couple of hours SOT with it. I guess the GPS chip must be quite efficient on this device, and the SOC just powerful enough that PoGo doesn't really bother it.

Phone heats quickly
I am not a heavy user, but I do play Pubg sometimes for 30mins straight, never experienced any heat on my device. This was with game booster on.
After playing Shadowgun Legends many time, I only get 3:30 hour screen on time with the game from 100% to 0%.
I play game each time on Ultra High with 60 FPS settings, brightness 30-40%, audio volume 20-40% on speaker. Battery drain rate during gameplay is higher on Shadowgun Legends.
So, is it normal to get that much of Screen On Time with this game on higher settings and also, device get heated.

I am heavy smart phone user. Yesterday I got like 40 calls, 50 answered mails and I was constant on bluetooth listening music with iFi xCan. Battery was around 40 percent after such usage.
In the meantime I spent some 2 hours reading articles on Medium and Feedly. In similar case my XS Max is usually dead or near dead. I am quite okay to leave K20 Pro during the night out of charger.
Veeery nice battery life (where, for example Pixel 3XL sucks and Mix 3 as well).
I have played Asphalt 9 for nearly 3 hours during the whole day, Along with 1-2 hours of Youtube and TicToc.. Web browsing for 2 hour s or so.. Oh and Quora for hour or so..
Have nearly 7 hours of screen on time despite all this..
