Average at its best. No matter how long a screen on time is, say, 9h, it still won't last a day, without charging almost everyday.

The heavy usage experience in this device is not pleasant for me. Especially multitasking is not that great when you a couple of tabs open on chrome an several other apps in the background, which use internet connection. But that's just for me; I am a heavy heavy user. For general heavy usage this device is decent.
I use the 3/32 version of this device.

3Ram32Rom Device
MIUI installed (XEU with stock chinese kernel)
I'm travelling often and almost all day screen on, G; maps, earth, chrome netflix, youtube, music play, all day, playing PUBG and watching movies 2 hours or more ;
I fully charged the battery yesterday morning 9 till now it's 02 tomorrow night, it's still 13 percent left,
I've installed magisk, and with smartpack kernel manager I set the low memory killer to very light for multitasking, and ondemand governor at 1900 mhz cpu,
well, I think up on my use daily, MIUI is better than stock, battery and smooth. Thx for the thread

Stock ROM definitely does not provide the best experience. Most I got was about 7.5 hours of screen on time with mostly on Wi-Fi but some Mobile Data and auto brightness. 4000 mAh does perform better with custom ROMs.

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.

the battery life with this thing is amazing, I am highly surprised how much longer it lasts Vs note 3.
I had literally been watching Netflix through WiFi on my phone for at least 12 hours and at that point it still had about 12% battery.
9.5/10
This is my measurement from todays usage.
100% at 7:25 AM
Constant music for one hour with browsing on 4G. 4G remained all the time
Every 15 min, unlock to check browser/FB
80% at 11 AM
Constantly using on 4G to use FB Messenger
66% at 1:50 PM
Some calls and browsing/FB
50% at 4:27 PM
Music for one hour at full brightness
37% at 6 25 PM
All the time 4G was on nad brightness meter at around 70-75%.
Not a bad performance for a 6" display
I think it's good, too. While playing Pokemon GO at very high brightness I can still manage 4 hrs. When playing other games like Super Hexagon it's at least 5.5 hrs. I think it would be very hard to get this phone empty in less than 4 hrs.
Losing 5-10% an hour with data and mobile hotspot on. Decent, but could be better. Also facebook might be draining the battery, so I'll also test without facebook.

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 have use this device in the same form that I have use my last device (oneplus 3T), on a heavy usage, the battery last about 7 hours, 27.4% of battery power is drained by the screen, 23.3% by PUBG mobile, 11.4% goes to Android system, 6.4% got eaten by Pokemon Go App and the rest 31.5 distributes on messaging apps, facebook, intagram, camera, and standby. I would have expected at least 9-10 hours under this usage, but that was not the case. On a standby and more light usage, I easily got to two days of battery life. Would have expected more of a the house "flagship".

Battery last for 6 hours maximum while playing PUBG mobile on graphic: Smooth and Ultra frame rate.
In my case, battery lasts 7-12 maybe (because AOSP battery log is very limited in terms of viewing some infos) by playing PUBG with Smooth+90FPS, mostly streaming on youtube, scrolling on Facebook and Chrome just by using mobile data... It's pretty GOOD and paired with 33w is fantastic
Bad SOT
Can PUBG players or COD players post their SoT and mention their graphics configuration?
PUBG Mobile
Graphics: Smooth
Frame rate: Ultra (It reach 60 Hz)
I played for 3 hours stright.
And I get 5 hours SoT (almost) .. check screenshots
I'm disappointed because the phone was advertised as a gaming phone ( one of the main features) so the battery should perform better.
I don't see any comments here.. where are the gamers? Kindly share your SoT
Thank you
Does 12h30min of SOT qualify as heavy use along 24h? At home, low brightness, 5ghz wifi all the time. Mostly social networks, web browsing, a few videos on youtube, no gaming. Battery went from 100% to 6%, then back to 26%. (In the end I gave it a quick boost, proving the original charger and original cable can provide 20% battery in 10 minutes when the battery is low.)
