That's not bad for your use...BT and data on all time drain quite a lot of battery, not to mention Facebook app and Messenger are also notorious battery draining apps. Also I see a gaming app on the screenshot you posted that drains lots of juice. Location and GPS also drains quite a lot of battery over time especially coupled with Facebook. Instagram isn't battery friendly either...
I get 9/10 hrs SOT over two days with Wifi Always on and a really basic usage...WhatsApp, web browsing and Instagram...so nothing very demanding.
I suggest you to restrict some apps in background (like Instagram)

Social media. Battery AND brain killer.

I was on Beta 4 and was also getting around 4 hours SOT, wasn't good at all. Flashed a custom AOSiP rom yesterday and i've doubled my SOT with same stuff enabled such as Bluetooth etc.

Agree.

Fb and messenger : facepalm get the fb lite and messenger lite or there are other apps for it available too, i am all day on Bluetooth and location at work.. and still easily gettin more than u

I was in the same situation like your sir . Before to change my sim card. I can't confirm 100 procent but after I swap to Vodafone UK my battery has improved I got always 6 hours and half . Now I can enable volte I don't know if this improve some battery life but for sure now I get like in general 6.30 hours with WiFi or without WiFi with Bluetooth always on .
Before to switch I use to root my OnePlus 6t and change the themes to black amoled black wallpaper custom kernel and more to get 5 hours .
This is in my case I don't know if this applies to you . Can be your phone can be anything

Same issue with me
When I use location , 4G and dual SIM standby with moderate usage I get only 4-5 hours this includes 1- 1.5 hours of Google maps , PUBG 1 hour and casual browsing + YouTube should I ask for a replacement my unit is brand new only a week old and in 24 hours I get only 4-5 hours SOT

Facebook and Instagram suck your battery like a vampire sucks blood.

9.0.12
10 h was conected to smart watch at work facebook videos autoplay in my case no problem with batery

I have WiFi, 4G and Bluetooth (always paired with Amazfit) turned on all the time. I've noticed that when I'm not doing much (for example 2h SoT) and phone stays untouched battery drains almost the same when using phone a lot (5h SoT). It doesn't matter if I use my phone - always drains almost the same. If I'm all the day on the phone I could get 6-7h and of course my battery drains faster, but lasts for minimum 24h. Not using my phone - sometimes more than 24h but less than 30h on battery (with 1h SoT).
I don't know what's going on... From "draining apps" I'm using only Messenger. Adaptive battery is off, battery optimization turned off only for "messaging" apps like Telegram, Signal, Slack and Messenger.
GPS is turned off, sometimes only I'm turning hotspot on for 15-20 minutes.
I'm on 9.0.12.
Anyone got some tips?

Do you bought it via OnePlus? If yes, try to contact the support and tell them your problem. If the phone is literally new, they tend to repair for free.

Stock kernel sucks dude. Use a custom.. I get 11 hrs sot.

I'm getting 3h of SOT lately (data/wifi on, no bluetooth). When I check the usage details it states Google play services using 75%.
Also got from a typical overnight drain from 2-3% to 5-6%.
Started behaving weird since the 9.0.12 if I recall correctly.
Stock, no root. Don't like it at all.

What custom kernel do you recommend?

Flash RenderZenith kernel and use some alternate apps for Facebook and messenger at least. I can recommend friendly app. There is also friendly for Instagram but without messenger.
You might wanna try out servicely app to restrict app background usage and wakelocks.

The Plays Battery can actually rock!

I know a few people have been moaning about the plays battery but I thought I would post a couple of pictures showing how well mine has been lasting over the weekend, I'm highly impressed as I have been using it quite a lot too.

That is 36 hours since a last charge and counting with 39% battery left! during this time I have been using the internet, a few apps, the camera and XDA forum app!
The lowest the Play has latest me is about 7 hours but that is playing 3D games non stop, so anything pushing the gpu will drain the battery a LOT faster than shown above.
So yup, the Play has got a FANTASTIC battery
UPDATE: So far it has lasted 40 hours 8 minutes with 18% remaining
Update, 43 hours with 13% left
Damn i'm jealous. My play doesn't last that long. Did you disable some app's? Ans all sync on manual probably
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
I've got about 150 apps on my phone, Trillian constantly running to keep me online with IM protocols, syncing set to automatic, streaming podcasts with bluetooth and playing games from time to time, often with the screen on for long periods of time. I've been averaging 24-35 hours per charge, FAR better than my old Captivate which wouldn't last a day at any point.

Mine is rooted and I removed a few system apps, nothing major though, I have facebook and twitter syncing every 3 hours, email every hour.
My Play finally turned off at 2%, total time - 45 hours, 7 minutes
I have been using a lot this afternoon so did go down faster during the last few hours, highly impressed as my old samsung galaxy s would never last a day without a charge.
Yeah, I think it just depends on how you use it. For me I don't use 3G at all so that already saves, and then on top of that I selectively turn on/off bluetooth and wifi. I can game for like 3 hours straight and still have 75% left. I think the longest I've gone is 24+ hours with heavy periods of gaming throughout. If you constantly use 3g, wifi, bluetooth, and have a gazillion programs running then ur battery life might be way less.

This is the thing, On the other end of the scale I have only got 7 hours out of it when I was playing games non stop all day but that isn't bad as my old psp would go flat in 3 hours playing non stop.
It definitely depends how you use it but its good to know it can last for almost 48 hours between charges if you want it too!
Hello FK1983, thanks to your post I found the Battery Monitor Widget, which provide more information than the one I had before. I was reading all the post about the xperia play battery because mine was lasting just for half day.
I install this widget and noticed that where it provide the estimate charge use by the phone was showing more than 150mA, this even in standby, while yours was only showing 4mA, base on this I know somethign was running and eating my battery so I restart the phone and now it has been in 2mA while in standby and around 40mA and 60mA while writing msg or checking something else.
Is there any way to know what is eating my battery if I notice the last behavior again? so i can just kill it and not just restart the phone again
Another thing I noticed is that in your picture where you can see the battery information it says "Techno: Li-poly 585/1500mAh" while in my play says "Techno: Li-poly XXX/1200mAh" where XXX is the actual battery charge. Is this indicating that there is something wrong with my battery? I check it just to be sure that it wont be a 1200mAh battery model because of different region market but the battery has written on it 1500mAh. Any help will be appreciate.
Thanks.
Always check to make sure Gtalk isn't running in the background if you're on 3G (make sure your signed out), as it literally destroys my battery in about 6 hours.
And if anyone knows of a precise application that indicates battery usage (outside of the built-in one), I'd love to hear about it!
There's no question that the play has great battery life compared to most smart phones out there. I lost my charger and it lasted 4 days and still wasn't dead when I bought a new one.
any tip?
is a good time in u battery....

The battery mAH settings you can change from 1200 to 1500 in the options, that maybe why some of your stats look different to mine? give it a try.
Regarding running apps, you could keep a close eye on the running processes and see what is running there, or use a task killer or even an "app monitor" that records apps usage.
Folks that report awesome battery life:
Have you applied the 2.3.3 update? I'm still on 2.3.2, and I'm lucky if I get 5 hours of moderate internet browsing before needing to plug in (with about 20% battery left).
Also, in contrast to the OP's picture, my battery widget is consistently reporting between 200 and 300 mA shortly after a reboot. Can't kill any tasks to speak of either. Nothing is running to speak of except homescreen widgets.
Using launcher pro with its built in facebook widget, power control, fancy widget, pandora widget (not playing), winamp widget (not playing), battery monitor widget, google plus widget, and a volume control widget. Running a live wallpaper as well. With all this running, is 300mA a reasonable usage?
I'm on 2.3.3. 5 hours seems awfully short for just web browsing...
I get around 24 hours with 15 hours of Facebook & ebudddy....around 2hours of web browsing and abit of gaming
Sent from my R800i using XDA Premium App
Im on 2.3.3 and i get around 24 to 30 hours facebook and surfing the web for around 2 hours and sending msgs and making some calls. if you are getting 200 or 300 mA i think something is killing your battery. On idle Im getting around 4 and 5 mA sometimes 12-15 mA(I guess something running in the background) and when using the web browser, WIFI on and GPS on im getting around 100-150 mA the most being really bad.
I'm on the R800X. I guess verizon really screwed this phone up.
I rooted my play last night and my battery seems to drain quicker.
I don't know why I havent done anything to phone yet as iv been at work all day. And since I havent replaced all my games yet iv used it alot less today than I normally would but the battery seems to have drained more than usual.
Would a task killer help prolong battery life? I read somewhere that a task manager is not needed with android but im skeptical

Android has a build in task killer, having two will only drain battery. try setcpu and remove as much bloatware as you can(need root).
I just updated my play to 2.3.3 and battery life seems worse for me than 2.3.2. I can barely get through a day of light usage (no gaming, and ard 1 hr's worth of web surfing, switched off most of the updating from apps like facebook, email, pulse etc to manual).
I tried battery monitor widget and my Battery health shows up to be 'null' (my friend's htc desire hd shows 'good'). Would any kind soul be able to tell me if there's something wrong with the battery or the software (mine is stock Singapore xperia play firmware 2.3.3).

Battery life, experiences

Hi all,
After a few days of using the Z5c, I must say I'm disappointed in the battery. It's coming not even close to factory brag specs (that's no surprise though). What does surprise me a bit, is that it upholds for barely ONE day. Back-to-back comparison with my old Z3c, all things (apps/usage characteristics) being equal except for stock ROM in Z5c and aosp ROM in Z3c, shows that the Z3c performs at least half a day longer!
Any other experiences with this?
This is interesting, if a little concerning. I'd be keen to hear feedback from others.
I had a Z1c, then switched to a Samsung Galaxy Alpha which has horrendous battery life, even more so with Lollipop (I flashed back to KK), I'd be happy with something in the middle probably. I believe the Z3c was quite a jump over the Z1c so hard for me to judge from what you are saying.
I guess we can expect battery to be worse on the SD810 vs the old SD800/801, despite the token battery bump. Maybe a future Android M update will go some way to helping, though that is probably some months off unfortunately.
Can you please share a screen grab of the battery screen on your device, showing screen time, apps usage etc.
Thanks.
edit: I have a Z5c on pre-order already, I'll add my thoughts when it arrives.
I would say my battery also lasted for about I day. Last time I charged it was yesterday and now I am out of batteries. I hit 15% a couple of hours ago. I will report back in a few days after some more charging and using.
EDIT: I should say I had A LOT of application running in the background, more then I would normally have. I usually kill apps I do not use, not just leave them in the background to preserve battery.

Yes, me too. I've now run into different trouble (not connecting to PC Companion, ANT HAL service corrupted, and more...) so no good example as "ordinary daily use".
With my first charge I got almost 2 days - configuring phone, installing apps and my daily usage. To compare, with my daily usage on my Nexus 5 I got through day with few percent to spare.
When using normally there is no problem with power consumption but graphics heavy games or camera app can make the phone really hot and battery drop fast.
So far getting 68% after full day of use, some phone calls, Spotify via Bt, few calls, updates, 3 push email accounts, etc. It's very similar to my old z3c. I expect 2-2,5days of battery life

I've been using phone for 5 days now. It has to be charged every day. STAMINA mode is on.
Daily usage:
- few calls
- some sms/hangout messages
- reading news/fb
- endomondo + gps - 1 hour running
Result:
43% screen,
12% Android OS (maybe a GPS?),
10% gReader,
6% Endomondo,
6% Cell standby,
4% Phone idle.
Current status:
Now on battery: 19h;
35% battery left - approx 12 hours left (according to battery info)
I'm a little bit disappointed with battery life so far.
perhaps you should check which app drains battery most. from my experience fb messenger is battery eater. disable Wi-Fi scanning, check if any of games you downloaded is set to send you notifications. phone is really good and I don't think your particular phone is worse - you just need to configure it!

I don't think you should do it at all, just google for some android tweak hints, disable any bloatware you don't want, disable notificatitons for apps you don't use or don't wish to send you notifications.
if you have to, install clean master and set saving battery option so it will kill any background tasks when screen off

Sure. I've looked at FB/Messanger but it only ate about 2%. I know all the battery hint, thanks.
Stamina mode turns WiFi off on screen off.
Anyway, the battery tricks are for other topic. Maybe I'm just playing with the phone to much, since it is new
Screen on times?
I regularly got 7-8 hours of SOT with my Moto X Play which I returned after two weeks for refund in favour of the Z5 Compact (mainly due to the size difference). Obviously I'm not expecting quite that level of battery prowess, but I'd like to see at least double what my Nexus 5 currently offers (it wouldn't be that hard to achieve with an average of 2.5 hours SOT).
In any case, I get mine delivered today so I'll be able to chip in on the battery front soon.

So after locking phone the battery info shall show the WiFi off when the screen is off right? Or is it made off in other way that it is not seen by battery info? See on the bottom of the screen.
Anyway the indicators show that SCREEN = off but WIFI = on

Search the forums for the Z3 series and Z1 for many posts that explain how Stamina works. It doesn't stop Wi-Fi. It doesn't allow apps to connect to Internet.

Poor battery life !!!!!
I come from a Z3 Compact and are very disappointed with the battery life. 2 days ? but if barely arrival until 15 pm using it as before and with the same apps. I do not understand how a phone so publicized and expensive might have a bad time. I know very well the Z3 Compacct and arrived safely in the evening but this new Z5 is really a bad purchase !!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope that the problem is the firmware...seem no go to deep sleep or new snapdragon wrok very bed.

I had very ****ty battery life for like 4 days, but since yesterday it's performing better, right now I'm at 60% with 2:30 SOT and it's been 22 hours off the charger. Hopefully it stays this way. I still believe the z3c has better battery life though.

Nougat Stable (Official) Battery Life improvements...

Like always battery life is subjective & can vary from user to user as there are so many variables.
However this is craaaazy , thought I'd deliberately use my phone as heavy as I could, emails, YouTube, checking forums etc ......
And I have nearly 6hrs SOT with 47% left in the tank......
Think Oneplus has improved on something here.....

Wow! That's impressive.
Did you update via the OTA or fresh install?
Well, I think it also depends on how long you've been running this version for. I've noticed it takes days for the device (and apps) to adjust to your usage pattern and eventually there will be 1 or more apps using more batt than the rest. This is when your batt life overall might reduced.
But still.. it's looks like a good start and perhaps you can revert back after a few days and see if this maintains

I'm not to bothered if this occurs (you'll be correct in saying this won't be an average).
However looking on a positive note looks like 6hrs average will be most certainly a given & achievable & I'll be happy with that....[emoji106]

yes in even increase of playtime from 3.5h tp 4.5h pokemongo.
Well to be honest I can't believe for more than 7 h sot with normal use. Now with 3.5.4 and franco kernel with most day on wifi, few hours on mobile data and auto brightness I can barely hit 6h sot. So 5h with 47% left is not possible under "normal" conditions

It's not a setup environment, and this is Normal use, well don't really use it as heavy as I have been, but what I am saying is conditions are the same....(This is with WiFi all day forgot to mention)...
But as I stated and I am fully aware like with my Edge where I achieved under similar conditions & same apps installed ect a 10hr SOT...
This didn't average out to be such, but my average was on my Edge 7hrs which is great and here with this build and similar circumstances, I suspect an Average of 6hrs + will be ..

This didn't average out to be such, but my average was on my Edge 7hrs which is great and here with this build and similar circumstances, I suspect an Average of 6hrs + will be ..

Just to be clear, do you have any apps like Facebook etc running in background? Do you use any additional programs to kill apps or something similar?

Second day on official nougat (3T 128gb version) with a lot of photography, Social media and music playing. 2 full 100-0% cycles later, 1st cycle 7:15 SOT, second cycle 7:54 SOT. Just crazy compared to the 1+X it replaces! Unfortunatelly forgot to screen, i'll post a screen at the end of the current cycle.

Yes I have Facebook & Messenger Running in the background, seriously nothing is being used like Ram Cleaners etc....
I am using Kernel Auditor to tweak the stock Kernel a little, mainly setting the Graphics to userspace , and read/write speeds...Slight editing on build.prop but nothing fancy and beyond a Google search...
Take this with a pinch of salt (as has been posted) this won't be an average, but it is a good indicator that 6hrs + will be....

it doesnt matter at all if u update/dirty flash it or clean install it.
no difference in that.
Phone on 9hrs, 1 1/2 hrs sot, not a heavy user, checking emails,forums, tinkering with OS.
Battery remaining 85% definitely better than I was getting with OOS 3.5.4
My battery is draining badly. I've been on the leaked 4.0 for a week now and flashed this stable version. Which seems to be the same and battery is still horrible. I only dirty flashed though. Going to test a clean flash

If you want your battery to last, you really shouldn't drain it completely. Put it on the charger when it's around 20% instead.

I'm not to bothered if this occurs (you'll be correct in saying this won't be an average).
However looking on a positive note looks like 6hrs average will be most certainly a given & achievable & I'll be happy with that....[emoji106]
This was using the full ROM flashed over 3.5.4....[emoji4]

They buddy, when you say full ROM over 3.5.4, do you mean full 4.0 ROM or full 3.5.4 then the small OTA 4.0 update? Thanks
You think I should 'upgrade' to 7.0?
besides losing xposed what do I gain from nougat?

Me too. But it is not the battery, it is the percentage going down too fast. The calculation seems to be wrong. After 35% it goes down way slower

Like always battery life is subjective & can vary from user to user as there are so many variables.
However this is craaaazy , thought I'd deliberately use my phone as heavy as I could, emails, YouTube, checking forums etc ......
And I have nearly 6hrs SOT with 47% left in the tank......
Think Oneplus has improved on something here.....

For me, from 100-50% 3-4 hrs of SOT and from 50-10, 2-3 hours SOT. On an average I'm able to get just 5.30 hours of SOT. I don't have facebook or messenger. I don't have any big games too. I use Instagram, WhatsApp, YouTube and Chrome more. Any suggestions to improve battery life?
I don't clear my RAM
Very good battery life for me on nougat...

Screen on time

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 Huawei P20 Pro before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I got my P20 pro yesterday, actually SOT is 5h46min.
And left 29% Battery
I love this p20 pro

Screen on time can be misleading.
For instance, watching a YouTube video over WiFi consumes less battery than browsing through the web using a browser on the p20 pro.
The same can also be said with Whatsapp and facebook
I have the phone for about 10 days now and in the beginning I wasn't too impressed with battery-life and screen on time averaging about 4-5 hrs.
Since a couple of days I've seen a nice increase in screen on time with an average of about 8 hrs or a bit more. I guess it took some time for the NPU to figure out what apps I used frequently and which ones can be dozed in the background. . I also installed Blokada which might positively impact battery life as well.
Altogether i'm pretty satisfied and look forward to future firmware updates to see the full potential of the amazing phone.

Wise words. Of course, the screen is ON when you use the phone, but it's also what you are DOING that makes battery drain faster or slower. I sincerely doubt anybody just turn screen on, and keep watching icons
I've recently updated from 107 to 128 and battery performance got MUCH better. Both idle drain and active usage. Pretty happy with it. I think 120 might me pretty much the same concerning battery. Had about 0.3%/h drain overnight with wifi on. With 107 it was about 0.8%/h.
Just got my p20 pro on 11 June. Upgraded from Samsung note 5. I have Samsung Gear s3 paired to the phone, and anti theft app running. I would say overall battery life is good, but can be better.
Most I've had is 10 hours on this phone, but my one plus 5.
14 hours 20 mins.
Stuck kernel xXx ROM.
I haven't properly debloated this phone yet but I'll get around to it.
Definitely not as well optimised as stock type ROMs, will measure SOT at some point properly, take screenshots etc.
You should make a leaderboard see who gets what.
The high one I got on the Oneplus 5 I was mostly reading up on the internet and making calls, texting, playing wordscapes. Just kept going lol.
Reckon this phone could beat that though.

I don't know why for some reason my screen on time is pretty weak. The longest I hit was about 5hrs45mins. I have several heavy apps like PUBG, Mobile legends, Samsung Gear and its related apps, Bluetooth on whole day coz of the watch and anti theft app that will probably be running in the background.
I have seen this constant weak SOT in the phones I've used. No idea why.

The same issue here. I'm reading about those 8H+ SOT and I'm wondering... HOW? The app that drains the most (according to the battery usage) is instagram, and even that I don't use that much. I still get 4-5H SOT, and I can't imagine getting more than that...

Judging from your screenshots, seems quite okay. Maybe you can try manually manage Instagram app? 5hrs+ SOT at 38% I think u can hit 6hrs or even more. Do you play games? If not, 7hrs should be achievable.

Where do you see 5hrs+ at 38? I see SOT 2H and 38% remaining.... meaning I'll probably reach 4 hours at most? And no, I don't play games.. I barely used phone tbh. Took few photos, searched through instagram, used some youtube and that's it.

About that.... reached 18% before I started charging again. Ended up with 3H SOT. this is such a shame, really. I'm thinking about doing hard reset of the phone tonight, if that helps. Screenshot attached

Before you do a hard reset, read this post first and try out. I think there are good feedback after a few tried the settings. I tried the settings as well and still reviewing it.

I have done that before. Left messenger and facebook on though. Also my P20 started acting weird after I disabled Facebook to run in the background...I left messenger ON and Facebook OFF, but the final result was quite opposite. I still got the notifications from Facebook and the messages from messenger were blocked. The OP mentions to delete messenger and facebook, but if they were the biggest cause for drain, that would be shown in "Battery Usage" wouldn't it be? However they were both waaay behind Instagram, System UI, etc.
I already did factory reset. Now I will slowly install apps one by one to see how the phone reacts to this. Might as well skip messenger and Facebook completely, and install Friendly as suggested by the OP of the post you posted. Hopefully what I'm dealing with is not a hardware issue (weak battery).
Will probably disable AOD as well, face recognition, location, etc.
Errr... Messenger ON and Facebook OFF is kind of silly bcoz u need fb to use messenger. I have both off.

and Battery stat
Yes I agree battery drain is pretty low, infact twice inhave seen it go upto 4 hrs in the night with full 4g service , without dropping even a single percent.
Haven't gone from a 0 to 100 SOT but this is what I recorded yesterday night.
Getting Impressive Battery Backup (9hrs 21m SOT) #POCOF1
Well In mu case I used the inbuilt battery saver throughout the day to dave more battery as it doesn't affect the speed.
Usage:16.5 Hours
Screen On Time: 9 Hours
These statistics are from 100 to 2 Percent.
I was on WiFi most of the time 4G for around 2 Hours.
Screen Brightness at Auto and only increased manually while using YouTube , Netflix or PUBG.
The performance was lag free.
I played PUBG at Extereme settings for around 3 Hours.
Netflix and YouTube streaming was for 3 hours too.
Else was my basic usage of Instagram , Facebook , Snapchat , Etc.
Really in love with its battery capabilities.

Pretty much the same with mine too. 3 hrs of PUBG, Lots of video playback, music time, Lots of browsing and reading, little photography, WIFI never OFF.
Well, I'm not a gamer, but I do read a lot on my phone
In my second battery cycle I decided to use my phone exclusively for surfing on chrome while listening to music for some time, and I got 13 hrs of SOT. Phone was on auto brightness for most of the time which wasn't enough occasionally so had used brightness of about 35%.
Btw, how do you post images here?!

Use POST REPLY and there should be an option to manage attachments if you scroll down.
So far so good. All day on 4G. Normal usage. FB, Twitter and little YouTube. 36% remaining.
Edit: 2nd screenshot added. SOT : Approx 10 hrs. with 4% battery remaining.
Still 5% left. Without any battery saver.
One thing I'd like to mention is
After charging to 100%, battery drops to 99% pretty quickly.
I find it weird considering it takes long time to charge from 99 to 100%. My mother's moto e3 power has 3500 mAh battery and shows similar charging behavior but functions for quite some time before discharging to 99%. The thing is, moto e3 has near stock Android. I think it's just miui thing to discharge so quick from 100 to 99.
Can anyine confirm this?

Yes This happens with me too
Mine is low compare to your stats.
Max 7 hours of SOT.
Usage Pattern: Around 2 hours of voice calls, moderate browsing, facebook, instagram, around 1 hours of youtube streaming. Total battery run time: 24 hours to 28 hours.
Wifi almost always on with little bit of 4G usage.
and I dont play games.
Should I ask for replacement?
Please suggest

You get 7 hours SOT with 2 hours of voice calls probably 4G, Instagram. I normally get up to 9 hrs of SOT with 3 hours of PUBG.
Pretty much right there. Just in case post the screen shots like others did. People could help suggest.

How can I upload the screen shots???
How is the battery after the update???I usually get around 7hr with 2 hrs of PUBG and other normal social media apps..I am still in version which was initialy provided by POCO.Is the battery improved after the update??I shd update to latest version or is it better to be in current one??
