Standby drain - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Real Life Review

Battery hardly goes down in standby

I'm not so sure, the OnePlus would drop 3-4 percent overnight and would be showing signs of Doze working. The mate 20 Pro stays awake even if the phone is not touched the whole time loose about 10 percent overnight

I am thinking that it happens if you have the on screen fingerprint set up and the smart thing that waits for you to move the phone or touch the screen. If you turn it off it should help.

I'll give it a try tonight and see if if it does sleep. Its a shame the face unlock isn't reliable enough. With my beard I'm getting 60% success rate

I noticed after turning off app launch, my overnight standby drain is 0%. I'll monitor again.

Used my mate20 all of yesterday, went to bed with about 50%. Woken up this morning to 47%. Never have I ever had a phone I could consider not charging for the second day. I have an opportunity to test the 40w charger and see how quickly I can top it up.

Settings>battery>app launch>untick manage app automatically.
Try it and see if your overnight standby drain has reduce? It seems like my battery life has improved. I'll test it again tonight.

Going to give this a try right now my standby drain is about 8% from a 11pm to 7am sleep

Do try it. I just tried 2nd night. Unplugged at 11+pm and woke up 7am at still 100%.

At 100% there is an overcharge - 100%-99% lasts as long as 80-75%. What if you left your device off charge for the night without charging?
I charge in the morning for 30-40 mins and leave overnight at 25 wake up with 15-17.
I woke up last night and used my phone so my result is skewed I will try again tonight (and not to wake up lol)

So from 2250 to 0650 I had drain of 6% or ~252mah. Power saver and ultra power saver turned off.
For reference 6% on the one of 6 is 198mah and 4% which is the drain I get on my OnePlus 6 is 132mah. So almost double the battery drain on the mate 20 pro
I wonder if the big cores still kick in during sleep. This is a 7nm chip, my assumption is that only the four Cortex-A55 cores should run during sleep.
I use timely alarm clock and setting that as an app on ultra power save mode it didn't go off yesterday.
I can try power save mode tonight, as a last resort I could turn it off and schedule on 1 hour before alarm

Yeah, when it was on I got 7/8% drain in the same period

I guess more of a question that a straight answer: What kind of battery improvement do you see when
- switching to FHD+ over QHD+
- darker theme, animations off
- manual app power management & launch
- VoLTE & High Speed LTE mode turned off
- fingerprint reader off (I guess hover-over-screen function drains?)
- Bluetooth, other antennae off
- removing/freezing whatever unused stock app (like Health) possible
- alternate launcher, battery saving apps

I 4 percent battery drain over night in 8 hours. Per saving off, Bluetooth on, Wi-Fi on, mobile data on. Quite good, I think.

Standby time? As in how long the phone has been off the charger and power use while screen is off and not used?
edit: post pics
Wouldn't this show you more of an objective number? Seeing how much power used in a given amount of idle?

Yeah I guess that isn't gonna work. It's just showing how long it's been on. I have no idea how to actually show how much usage at idle aside from unplugging it at a specific time at night and checking it in the morning
My idle time according to gsam is 1.5% per hour. This is sitting on my nightstand, everything on (bt,wifi,etc) and a pebble and fitbit alta connected as well as always on screen enabled. I would say it is excellent idle time.
this is not bad at all

I charged mine to 100% last night before I went to bed. Sat it on the nightstand and it was at 96% when I woke up. That was with WIFI on and no fancy little watches or anything like that connected.

4% on a whole night is pretty good.
Had the same experience with mine last night. Went to be at 70% charged woke up 8 hours later at 66%. Seems pretty decent really. This was with wifi and cellular on, and Bluetooth off.
2am to 7am and 1% drop, with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on connected to gear s3. But I have a bunch of apps that I don't use disabled with bk disabled like bloat stuff.
For an Android phone, I'd say standby time is pretty spectacular, especially if you have Always On Display turned off. I don't have any hard numbers, but subjectively, it's the best Android device I've had in this regard.
The Note 8 standby time isn't as good as my S8+ yet, but it's only gone through one or two charging cycles. My S8+ would drop from 100% to 98% in a 10 hour period over night. The Note 8 drops about 8% in the same amount of time. As I said previously I have been using the S8+ since the 14th of April and the Note is still new. I have also disabled quite a few services on both phones and they are bone stock with just Substratum and a few layers installed.
charged before sleep to 100%, waked up 6 hours later, at 99%. Best ever, usually get 97-96 % on previous phones. But I have to admit I have sync turned off, don't use facebook or anything like that, manually killed most apps I used during day and have AOD only for 45 min, during time I get ready for work in the morning. Now, after 18 hours since full charge and 3 hr and 6 min screen time I'm at 58%. Seem to be pretty good especially that kids were playing games before, recorded some 4k video and had brightness cranked up to 50%. As it is, I should get at least 6-7 hrs screen time before battery dead, probably more if I lower resolution, lower brightness etc. Not sure why others complain about battery, more than good enough for me.

EDIT:
Unplugged at 11PM last night at 100%, woke up 8AM at 92%.
There may be an idle issue here.
I just got my Note 8 delivered today and I very interested in this as well. I am charging now that set up is complete and will check my percentage in the morning. I do like what I am reading so far!

Hehehe I can spot someone who cares for his battery just by looking at the graph ☺ avoiding a full charge puts less stress on the battery... I think the battery would be even happier spending the night at 50%

Definitely a pattern here. Battery very consistent with best SOT I've experienced. Nokia has nailed it in this respect from a relatively small battery

Wow! Nine hours and it didn't drop a single percentage? What a quality doze
I suspect it was a one off, it would be nice if it did it all the time that's for sure.
Have had my phone 5 days - 4 nights.
1st night was 0% loss - but past 3 nights has been 3-4% overnight in Aeroplane mode.
So I guess some apps I installed since are doing something or trying to do something overnight.

My phone is fully stock and not tampered with in anyway.
Being in Airplane mode only turns off the radios, it doesn't stop the phone from doing things.

Spoke too soon. Saw another 0% drain last night...
Only difference I can think of is that earlier in the day I had disabled 'Push' on my corporate email client 'TouchDown' and set to never sync.
But the weird thing it that the push/sync was only ever scheduled for office hours. So, unless it has been doing something behind the scenes - it does not make sense that it was using 3-4% every night..Pretty sure it did not show up in the usage breakdown figures.
Will check again tonight.
I remember that my Z1Compact used to get away with 0-1% overnight and even my Z3C in the early days - until an Android version upgrade removed the Sony battery optimisation feature.
Update: Another night of 0% drain!
I got the phone on Saturday, and in two nights I'm losing 2-3% in 7-8 hours. I guess this shouldn't happen since my old Galaxy s5 on 7.1.1 had 0% drain. Also today at work battery drained 2-3% while doing nothing on the phone the whole day.
Anyone else with the similar problem?
Has anyone spotted that after Oreo update battery life improved? I managed to get two days out of it with Location/Data on all the time using maps almost all the time pretty impressive.
Hi! If you're only using mobile data (4G/LTE) for internet access the whole time, how much SOT are you having while doing some chats and Facebook?

yeah, but it's not normal.
Also, it can be 7-10% or 10-15%. Phone and kernel sucking battery, still haven't found the solution.

Nothing changed like doze settings or smth.
Sleeping like a baby (25 min Sot) wifi and lte.
Got phone yesterday. It had been charging sontooknit off charge when I went to sleep. 7 hours later it had only dropped 4% 96%.
2% batt drop in 9h21m with everything enabled overnight, very happy with that.
I even go to sleep with 30% juice left without plugging it into the charger now
I am amazed at the battery drain, hardly drains at all. I haven't not charged overnight like I did with my previous Pixel 2 XL. Battery drainer faster with P2XL.
Plugged off charger at 0030 last night, now at 0830 had about 85%. Use AOD and no battery saving mode.
This is <2% per hour! Luv it!

Brother even i have a same problem...
Every night before sleeping my phone is usually at 47-48%. Every morning it is at 15% or less..
Thats massive drop in 7-8 hours.
It could be the network signal. I've noticed that in my flat, when in standby, he doesn't drain that much and I'm on wifi and full signal coverage from Vodafone. On the other hand I have worse drain when I'm at work, still connected to the wifi but the network coverage is quite poor, so I realized it drains more even if I am not using it at all.

Well you point is valid.
Here at my place i get full bars on my 4g network. So it doesn't seem that problem.
I tried to test just on network. Wifi off. Battery drained 3% over night. Which is fine.
Then i tried with wifi on, it drained 20%. What i am concerned is that usually when on wifi battery doesn't drain at all in standby mode, which is not the case with my unit.
I want to know if there is some problem with that
Me too. I am experiencing 11% battery drain during standby. When I looked into the battery usage, Screen, Phone Idle and Mobile standby seems to be on the high side of 20%.
What I've just discovered is that in mobile Network Setting -> advanced -> "mobile data always on" was activated by default. Just turned it off and will now see if it reduces both idle and active usage drain when connected with WIFI. Because afaik this setting keeps mobile data enabled when connected with wifi to make switching between wifi and mobile data quicker (which i dont really need and never missed).

I have p20 pro now, very happy with how little i drain overnight, but with a previous phone i noticed that when it was cold it frained much quicker, i dont know where the guys are who are omlainging about large battery drain, but it could be an issue?
I have set Mobile Data always on to Off but still experiencing great battery drain. Fully charged at 12am and woke up 5.30am with 70% remaining.
A quick look into my Battery Usage, found out that Screen, Phone Idle and Mobile standby is at 20ish%. Does anyone have this same issue or these 3 hardware should stay at a certain range in order for my battery drain to minimise?

I think you definitely has something running in the background draining your battery. I have everything active even Mobile Data always on and still my battery only uses around 2% in 9-10 hours.

AccuBattery is reporting 3.5%/h average battery use with screen off, measured with a total of 24h of screen off (non consecutive)
Not impressed
Standby is terrible to be honest. Drains almost 1 - 1.5% per hour just lying on table. Pixel 2 used to drain 0.5 to 0.75% in an hour
I get usually 0.6% / hour overnight drain. I'll wake up with about 95%. Phone face down with AOD so it goes off. Once in a while an app will keep the phone awake unbeknownst to me until the morning. Either I restart or force close the app and it goes away. If you're getting higher drain than that you should check your apps keeping the phone awake with screen off. BBS is really good for that.

You need to figure out what is keeping the phone awake then. I tweaked my wife's 3 yesterday and she go 0.4% / hr last night and I only got 0.6% / hr. I have a little more running on mine though, sync wise. AOD / w/face down to turn it off.

First off I turned off adaptive battery. Then I removed MIPS and MVS completely. Deleted an unneeded app that gave a bunch of partial wakelocks and alarms. Rebooted and voila 1.8% / hour down to 0.4% overnight drain.

Wow. That's even worse than I expected. That's must be some misbehaving app. With a 2915mAh battery I think about 0.6% per hour with AOD off. With AOD on I'd expect like 1.25% per hour.

It was but it doesn't. Maybe in an update but not now.
Turing off "Adaptive Battery" seems to give vastly more juices here, hopefully it gets fixed in the coming update cuz it's supposed to help not making it worse. lol
Shouldn't it take some time for adaptive battery to actually work? It needs to learn after a week or 2 I assume.

I guess you're right. But I switched it off yesterday, and I must admit the Pixel 3 sips much less juice when idle since. How come the learning process takes that much power?
Has anybody used the phone for at least two weeks with adaptive battery on and noticed any improvement?

If it takes that long then it doesn't work. I had it on since day one, whenever that was, and turned it off a couple of days ago. Adaptive battery should be labeled accelerated battery drain at this point. It was a nice thought but it simply doesn't work. Now if they acknowledge the mess up and say they fixed it well then I'd try it again. Until then..
Okay guys, let's try to see if leaving Adaptive Battery on for 2 weeks would give us some what better SOT or standby. I've started yesterday.
However, as to share, my first week I kept switching between on/off and it is LEGIT that leaving it on is such a culprit! funny enough!

What is MIPS and MVS? How do you remove them? What impact do they have on functionality?
Also kind of funny that a feature like Adaptive Battery that is supposed to help battery life actually makes it worse.
Interesting. Got my pixel 3 today, coming from IPhone X
Standby time is not the best part of the pixel...
As I said earlier on another subject. When charging the Pixel 3 100% its takes 1% in less than 5 min compared to Pixel 2 and Nexus 6P its take over 30 min. So i think OS Pie is not good for battery

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the ASUS ROG Phone II's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Drained 10% in 9 hours
I have my new ROG Phone II drained 10%(93% -> 83%) in the first night (9hours). Without battery saving mode, wifi and GPS turned on. Facebook, twitter, whatsapp and telegram running in the background. Is this normal?
Its a lot lol, it should not discharge more than 1-2% over night but you kept everything enabled which is a stupid move.

Seems to be within expectations, but you could improve the time with few tweaks.
Standbydrain over night is very low, does not even drop 1%(!!) WiFi/data turned off ? (I use Naptime to force doze)

Mine drained 10% with WiFi, data and Bluetooth off in Super Saving mode. I wonder if its due to poor mobile signal reception inside my home cos if I turn on Airplane mode overnight, I get only 1 to 2% battery reduction.
Check what app is use power. I got rog and problem is google play service - in my case use about 23-25% from charge to charge.
This problem is not in this phone but others also. We need to wait till google or Asus go and fix it.

check whether the google photo is running at the background. this happened to me, when I migrated from my old phone, when I run the google photo, it seems that it will do a lot of thing over the next few hours in background until the OS kill the process off.
drains 2-4% per h if you disable everything from stock, so whats the point in have this phone if u berly use it if the phone dies in few hours
Not much to say. Hardly any really
I have the ambient lock screen on. So there's always a clock showing. Went to sleep last night, leaving wifi, data and bluetooth on, at 88%. Woke up this morning after 5 alarms and notifications throughout the night at 86%. Was asleep for around 8 hours.
I just had 8%drain over night (6h). The only thing I changed recently was system update from 44 to 64 WW. That's up from previous 2% over 8h from ww.44
Battery is the worst ever. My Sony Xperia 1 with 3300 mAh battery is better.
Google services finishing off 45% of my battery always. Tried everything nothing works...
My standby drain is back to 1-2% over 8h once I rolled back to WW.35, so if you are having worse standby battery life on WW.64 you might wanna roll back too.
This was not Google services related, I had like 1% max of Google services, there is something weird with WW.64 for some users about that specific drain.

I just flashed the RAW WW.35 like it was an update, but in my case I was coming back from GSI rom (with WW.64 base), so I had to do a factory reset too, dunno if that's going to be the case here.

Not anymore
I had 1 or 2 % over night with WiFi,gps,4G and notifications ON . I disabled the Optiflex and now I get 0% .Went to sleep at 70% and woke up at 70%. Was asleep for around 10 hours .
10% for 9 hours is normal.its around 1.111% per hour.so approx 1%/hour...with 100% your phone can last for 99 hours.

10% drain over 9 hours (over night?) is not normal.. Unless you had 4G turned on and a bit bad reception.. ? With WiFi and 4G turned off at night, it should not drain more than 1-2% MAX over night (10h). Mine usually drains 0-2% over night
