Battery life and SoT - Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers

Hi
How does it compare with the k20 pro? Or the OnePlus 7? Can we get some reports of battery life of this phone?
Thanks

I've seen varied results. Check out YouTube, earlier videos I watched has the 9T beating everything op7 pro ,p30 ,k20 pro .
But I've watched some recently with the K20 pro beating it but guess it's dependant on what's actually running on the phones

I get about 6 to 7 hours SOT over almost 2 full days on the Mi9T with medium usage which means no gaming, just social media stuff, whatsapp etc.
It is such a huge improvement over my old phone, the OnePlus 3

I am getting around 6hrs indian variant but I still haven't gone too 100% charge yet

Battery is amazing!

Averaging 10hrs over the course of 2 days for me so far :good:

Average 10 hours here over 2 days but if I watch local recording instead of youtube for exemple, will go over 12/13 hours ! I use night mode and I care about no having background activity.

Here's mine.
Havoc OS GSI
Usually I get around 10h sot.

Most of GSIs will give you the same battery life. I've tried 8 or 9 and always get around 1d 12h and 9-10h sot

Thank you for your answer. there is no bug or problem you have encountered?

I've got mine today and had 69% at unboxing. Now I have 19% and around 4,5h SOT. Caused by nonstop setting up phone

Guys what is the average SOT we can get out of a 4100 mah battery phone like our own redmi 3s ??
I am currently on RR N unofficial by woivod and getting a SOT of about 8 hours on average but i have seen people getting 10-12 hours SOT too, how can i increase it??
what do you think?
I think 15 hrs max
But sd is powercinsuming soc
Flash xiaomi.eu developer miui 8 and keep battery saver always on.You will get maximum sot.

Based on your review, I did flash NOS 8.1. The backup is good so far.

What 's about your SOT?

Please share your screen on time in single charge .
Thank you guys.
I hit nearly 10 hours yesterday. Todays charge I'm on 7h 48m with 18% left
All on miui.eu build.
6 to 7 hours, miui 10.2.8
10h-12h medium usage. no gaming but stream a lot. 2 weeks old device.
7 and half hours max with gaming included
I'll tell you ASAP 'cause I've bought it today
Its 6-7 hours. LTE range is not good in my area so its around 6 and half on 4G. When on 2G or 3G and WiFi , SOT goes beyond 7 and half. My usage is browsing only, no gaming.
5h to 6 with miui 10.3.6
what's wrong with me, i can't go over 4h on sot ?? miui 10.3.6

Debloat MiUi. USE LTE ONLY ON ONE SIM. Select 2G on other.
you know what, i install miui global eea v10.3.2.0 and update to v10.3.2.0 and look the result is too good!!
Mine
I was initially getting ridiculously good SoT, easily above 10h while GPS, Bluetooth, Sync etc. all open.
Since last week, Play Services started to eat battery a lot. Still well above 7-8h SoT, and it's more than enough, but it's weird :/

I've red somewhere that it could be responsible of some battery drain.. Go in battery settings and turn off any background process for the gcam.
Syberia is absolutely amazing rom!
First cycle of charge... See screenshots ... All out of the box... Kernel stock and anyone configuration to save battery...
I'm absolutely freaked and happy!
on MIUI 5 days bought
12hs screen
Finally I got this phone.
And I'm happy with that.
Usage 4 days.

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 Redmi Note 9 Pro before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
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!
Great results for me also. I'm getting at least 10 hours SOT per charge and I use a TON of social media like Snapchat/Instagram, etc.
Hi all, this battery is amazing for me I played around 3 hr or more, then FB like 2 hr, IG about 30 min. Sent whatsapp messages and messenger too. Calling about 2 hours with speakerphone. Searched for a case in amazon and other things like 1 hr or more and some browser time too.
By 4 am had like 13 hrs SOT, this time before put it to charge gonna take a screenshot and post it.
Cheers.
Hi, heres my SOT and have 14% left

Dear Senior Member, sorry for calling me stupid but i use Xiaomi phones for several years and i flashed hundreds of custom roms. Is it possible not to know how much my phone uses the battery? Do you really want to change my phone's system language just to clear this situation? Is so hard for you to understand from that picture? Let me explain...i charged the phone to 100% and then i used it normally( calls, sms, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc) and that is my score. I didn't charge the phone at all during this cycle. Conprende?
Monster Battery!!!

Hi,
As i am unable to post my screenshots due to limit to my account so i just attach link.
So guys my story is below:
Battery usage:
1d17h 46min sin last charge
15 hrs 13m remaining
With sot is round about 5 hrs 30 mint
While all that my Bluetooth and location is on for mi band 4.

Hard Reset?
What do you think of this percentage taking into account that I have used it in airplane mode, with minimum brightness and saving mode?
is a Hard reset recommended?
Yesterday I got about 7h43m of SoT (100% - 20%) for the whole day. Most of the time I used Facebook/Messenger, web browsing; about 2 hrs of 3D gaming (LLAS, Mirishita) at maximum graphic settings. I turned 4G on all the time, 60 - 100% of brightness.
This morning (4:30 AM to 11:10 AM) I got about 57m of SoT (100% - 91%).
Is my battery life normal? Should I return the phone and exchange for another one?
I'm on MIUI Global 11.0.8 stable.

I have not unlock my BL yet. Flashing via Miflash doesn't work at all. So what should I do to flash the update package manually? I'm used to using TWRP and AOSP before on my Redmi 5+ so I'm not much familiar with MIUI stuffs.
And today after using wifi for the whole day (social media, gaming, etc.), I got about 11h37m of SoT with 14% left. Is this normal?
My phone is a secondhand one so I do really care about its battery.

Miui EU 12.0.3.0 - SOT

Hi,
I have a Mi 9T with the official EU rom 12.0.3.0.
I am not a hard user, only using emails, whatsapp, internet ... (no games or movies) but I only have 5-6 hours SOT.
I have as well restricted many apps in the background.
The battery is not draining when I am not using my phone, or a very little drain 2% but as soon as i use my phone, the battery goes down very quick.
Main consumer is Android system with 30%.
I did a factory reset on the 12.0.2.0 version, still bad SOT and last week I had the 12.0.3.0 update, SOT unchanged (5-6 hours).
I have seen many subjects on the forum but i feel like not everybody found a solution for having a nice SOT (8-10 hours). I usually keep my phone 2 days without charging it, with same apps. But today i mostly need to charge it everyday.
Are you guys in the same boat?
If not what is your SOT, and what ROM or setting do you use?
I would prefer to stay on a official ROM if possible.
I becoming desperate with this poor SOT, thinking to go back on miu10... which is a shame because i bought this phone to enjoy last os.
Cheers,
You can try the global version,( 12.0.5) or a custom rom like xiaomi.eu that uses a debloat version of chinese rom, stable and weekly.

SOT means Screen On Time, you can see it in "Battery & performance -> Battery usage stats.
Right now, my SOT is 2h40min and I have 46% battery left. So I would probably get around 5hours SOT once my battery is gone.
I think it is very little but I would like to know if people have similar SOT to mine?
First of all screw miui ,if y are a practical orientated person who only cares about

Please flash a rom which is caf based ASOP doesn't make sense to Snapdragon driven phone
*I myself use pa quartz 4 edition ( sadly no quartz 5 )
*I got upto 14 hours of sot once that was just with browsing @25-30% brightness with mobile data on
*I've restricted all unwanted **** including google assistant , I'm running gappa pico edition , I use Google Chrome for satisfying my needs of Gmaps , Gmail etc. ( Ofcourse I've disabled "Google" app too, along with vibration and all kinds of hepatic feedback including touch sounds on dialer )
And I get An average of 10 hours SOT watch the screen shot.
I'm talking every 10%=1hour or 1hour+.
TRADEOFF : FOD - in this rom fod never works fine and is broken. if you need fod or if you prefer it over the double tap to wake + pattern mode which I myself use now you should rather get yourself PIXEL EXPERIENCE or lineage os 17.1 . (FOD WORKS Steamlessy on PE rom , 2ndly on lineage os but battery life never gets better than this it's always under 10 hours but all these 3 are way ahead of all miui roms which no MI bloatware and fake optimization only part about miui is that FOD and our device has a lot of hidden bugs which you don't find in our day to day usage which I got exposed to myself after messing up my persist image a while back ).
The last versioni of miui 12 and 11 have bad sot. On 12.0.2 i had also a battery drain with screen of now on the 12.0.3 in 7 hours i have 3% of battery discarghe with screen off but with screen on the drain Is vert higt 20% of hour.

Thank you, we have the same problem.
So what have you done? Are you using another ROM now?
I'm on MIUI Global 12.0.3.0 and I constantly get max of 4.5 hours SOT.
1 hour calls
3 hours social media and messaging
Brightness around 90% fixed
mixed LTE & WIFI usage

Hi, yes I see yours is even worse than mine.
Have you tried a factory reset with the new 12.0.3.0?
I guess you should try to use automatic brightness because 90% is a lot and may consume lots of energy.
The last 2 days, I have tried the saver mode and the battery actually last much longer.
I am around 8.5-9 hours SOT now. I have activated the auto synchronisation to get updates in live.
I will continue on this set up this week, but I am pretty happy with this SOT, it gave me almost 2 days without charging now.
