Depends on what you are doing. I'm getting 5, 5.30 at best SOT with heavy gaming. (1 hour long War Robots)
Its been 2 weeks since I got this phone, the battery life on first week was phenomenal. I easily got 7 hours with games, updating apps etc. I don't know if its because of the software updates or the apps that I downloaded, but I cant get that good battery life anymore
Well, the SOT varies depending on your usage. My SOT ranges from 6 to 10 hours, I remember even getting more than 11, but that time I was only using wifi and mostly browsing the web. Average is 8 hours I'd say but I know this device can go even further beyond that with the right software and usage.
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 Xiaomi Mi 8 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Can any of the device owners share their experience so far with it?
I'm on xiaomi.eu MIUI 10 open beta so battery life can be better when it's stable. Buts it's pretty decent right now I'm happy with it.
15 percent per hour if display is on. If display off than 0.5 percent.
On my usage I get two days.
Battery life is a good surprise, I'm using xiaomi eu
My MI 8 can reach upto 7h30 on-screen time, how about you #5 and #n?
The battery is what I was looking for in a smartphone. Constantly using it (web browsing, facebooking, gaming, youtubing, etc.) for a day, it could last around 8hrs or more, playing games heavily it could drop to 6hrs. I have been using the phone for around 2hrs per day, and it could last up to 3 days. Ah, I have Always-On enabled. My rom is still China, waiting for bypass time to unlock it.
How do you get that SOT? I'm on xiaomi.eu 8.8.30 and max I get is 5 hours

So you are on miui 10 beta, i am still on miui 9.6.7, i hope it is not the issue. I put most of my apps to "not running in background", some are set with no restriction. But the system still kills all apps once in a while, i am new to xiaomi phone so I still dont know if this can be disabled or not. I have not installed all of my daily drive apps because I want to unlock the bootloader and flash global rom first, i also hope this is not the issue
My normal standby drain is about 12hrs for 10%. Oh, I do go battery settings to solve any detected issues when I am on break. I also hide the notch.
Battery life is solid, running china dev and i get 2 days with total ot 5+ hours SOT. For a non stop use indoor i can go 8+ hours
xiaomi.eu ROM (up to 8.8.30) drains battery fast, 15-20% per hour with screen on, = maximum of 4.5-5h SOT. With global stable or global beta ROM getting around 8-8.5h SOT, 10-15% during usage.
Yesterday i bought the phone, fully charged and at 25% i got 7h+ screen on time.. which is completely amazing!! Global stable 9.6 here..
You can easily get over 7 hours of SOT, and more than 30 hours on one charge.

I got the Xiaomi Redmi K30 (4G - 6GB+128GB) directly from China through a friend. My very first Xiaomi and boy what an amazing battery this phone has! Coming from Samsung I've been literally blown away. I thought such battery life was always limited to XDA threads and hence this was truly a dream come true lol. And for $250, this has been the cheapest phone I've ever bought. So much value this has to offer.
This is my first charge cycle of the phone.
I am yet to fully move all my apps to the Redmi K30 yet. Only Gmail, other Google apps including Chrome were mainly used with some very light gaming (I'm no gamer). And I uninstalled many of the apps that came with the phone.
Its running MIUI 11.0.3 on Chinese stock ROM. 4G LTE on all day (not connected to WiFi at all). Screen refresh rate set at 120Hz.
Usage was mainly fiddling around with the phone setting it up and installing Google apps, 2 hours of voice calls, 30 mins of videos on YouTube, 15 mins of games. I am yet to drain my battery fully. So halfway through at 50% mark, I have used the phone for over 24 hrs with 4+ SOT.
Stand by drain has been amazing as I've already slept through two nights where battery drained only 1% (!!!) over 6-7 hrs. For me, this battery life is purely insane!
I will post again once I manage to deplete the battery fully.
-- EDIT -- FULL UPDATE
The battery was finally about to die after 2 days! (48 hrs!!!) With 7 hrs of SOT ?
In addition to the above, I further used the camera to take a few pictures, Maps/GPS and more fiddling around.
4G LTE (mobile data not WiFi) was on and connected throughout using a single SIM. Battery Saver mode was not activated as I wanted to see how far it could stretch. Screen refresh rate set at 120Hz.
Drains fast when 120hz but with 60hz amazing battery life, i must say. Even got 9 hours SOT in 60hz with small games and YouTube on speakers.
11 (ELEVEN) hrs of SOT!!!
3rd Charge Cycle -
Screen refresh rate set at 60Hz
4G LTE on all day (not connected to WiFi at all)
2 hrs of YouTube video/music playback
1 hr of voice calls
Connected to Bluetooth earbuds for media
Lot of messaging on WhatsApp
Random browsing
Installing apps
Battery Saver mode was NOT activated
Face Unlock with Raise to Wake enabled
Verdict on SOT range - 7 hrs (120Hz) to 11 hrs (60Hz)
Redmi K30 (stock CN ROM with MIUI 11.0.3)

How to check SOT btw
Sent from my POCO X2 using Tapatalk
OK got it, It's about 7 and half hours.. Not bad I guess.. Use 120 hz.. Though use battery saver and location off.. Data is on most of the time
Sent from my POCO X2 using Tapatalk
10-11 hrs on avg(120hz) or even more
0% battery drain
I dont play any games just normal apps like social apps,spotify,reddit,chrome,etc
I am using pixel experience plus rom(with location and auto sync off)
Coming from Galaxy Note 8, the battery life is really impressive. Im on china rom with google play install. 60hz and on wifi all the time. No games. Just watch some videos and surfing the web. And social media such as whatsapp, instagram and telegram is also used. Planning to switch to xiaomu.eu rom after my bootloader has been unlock which I need to wait for 168 hours.
Edit: since I could not upload the image I will just say it. 23 since last charge with over 7 hours sot with 50% battery left.

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!!!

Are you Iphone or Pixel owner?

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.

I'm updating my last SOT, so there you go. I'm on 11.08 cheers :good:
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

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.
