Much better battery life on Marshmallow 6.0? - Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, I'd like to share my thoughts about battery life on Marshmallow. Has anyone noticed better battery life after updating to Marshallow? I sure have.
About 5 hours on screen time on Lollipop 5.1.1 and about 9 hours on Marshmallow 6.0. I found that sweet.
What do you guys think? Do you have a better or worse battery life?

I also have both as well, I find myself using the N9 more, but i love the Sony's build quality.
here is my current N9 battery life: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OnUUDNicBmXqIg3d-PsxmF-YKIpWtqjcDg/view?usp=sharing

What's your Note 3 battery life like? Battery life discussion here...

So far 1 day and nearly 11 hours on my battery, no charging or anything!
Running Aosp.... I get a little less.. Maybe around 20 hours and about 4 hours of screen on time.
How much free RAM do you have on boot? On stock TW with beast mode kernel, I've seen as high as s 1802 on a fresh boot.
My best battery time was 30+ hours and 7 hours screen on time running odexed blue rom.

With stock cell, about 1d 8 hours, with 5 hour screen on time.
With my Hyperion 6400mah extended, I get about 2d 5 hours with 9h 30m screen on time.

Excellent battery life, stock rooted.
But wifi calling causes a wakelock when it's engaged, so I disengage it when I'm not using it.

I use my device pretty constantly for email, text, gaming, phone calls and other etc applications. I'm running Freeza's Fre3 Rom for my daily driver and tend to get approximately 9 hours.

So this app claims that it checks out your battery and fixes sections not working.
I tried this on my Note 3 with great results.

I don't understand the point of bragging about the long life of a phone's battery if the phone is hardly used. I can't even get 5 hours of just internet usage out of my phone. This is the norm for the original battery and my brand-new OEM backup battery. I'm still running a completely stock rooted Jellybean ROM.
GPS - OFF
BLUETOOTH - OFF
SYNC - OFF
WI-FI - OFF
I did turn the GPS on for about 2 minutes.
1. Check the Facebook and weather sync settings.
2. Check the brightness. Move it to 50%
3. Change Display timeout to 30secs
Those 3 steps should improve battery life.
Best option: Root and flash Vision X rom. I get around 5hrs of screen on time.
Best. Rom. Ever

depends on my use but i get about 5-6 hrs of battery life. With my Zero lemon it started of good with about 2-3 days of life. and after a month it drop to about 15-20 hrs of battery life. I recently sent it in for an exchange.Now I need to deal with the stick battery for now.
I get about 15 straight hrs rooted with all apps and some battery saver application rocks woke up at430am and still at 69%

I don't know if this is a fluke or no..but today I checked my battery usage and it said I was close to 48 hours on a single charge..and my screen on time is 16 1/2 hours

I am not rooted. Any comments on this?

Yes, LG G2 battery is great, we all know that. It is also 3100mAh, so the comparison to the iPhone 5 (1440mAh) is apples to oranges seeing as it is more than twice as big.
There is really no point to this thread really.

That's true but from the customer point of view, they don't care what inside, they don't care what tech of the battery pack is being used, they don't care it's 1mAh or 100000mAh. What people care is how long it would last, of course, it has to be packed in the slim, thin body.
I got 48 hours battery life with 8.5 hours screen time ? g2 is the best

The battery could be 10 times as big, but if one of them can last a full day and the other only half a day, that's what's important. G2 also has bigger screen and faster processor, so it needs a bigger battery..
But I agree, there is no point to this thread. It's the same as the other 1/2 dozen talking about how great the battery life is.

Actually the A7 CPU (iPhone 5S) is faster than the Snapdragon 800. But that doesn't really matter, the screen is what uses most of the power.
Oh my god. That discussion once again. A dual core 1.3 GHz processor is not FASTER than a 2.3 GHz snapdragon 800. It's the optimisation between hardware and software that makes it appear faster - the SoC in itself is NOT faster.

Very true.
I hear the first 64bit Snapdragon will be the 410 (midrange), guessing Android will also be going that direction soon.
They haven't announced the 64 replacement for S800/805

Does Samsung Galaxy battery last longer than iPhone?

I have an iPhone 4s and I'm planning to change to Samsung Galaxy s3 or maybe a Note III (since there's a rumor that it'll be out). I use my phone 24/7 and I wanna know which phone's battery lasts longer? o::victory:
All depends on what you are doing with the phone. Heavy user or not.
The note III is supposed to be a battery beast.
The s3 is ok. I have seen people saying it lasts longer than the old iphone and also the opposite. So, I would say there is no big difference. I have bough the samsung 3000mAh battery and cannot complain

Battery on my S3 isn't great, it's better than my xperia U, but I'm still pretty disappointed. Got a Moto G for a friend though and that thing is a battery beast.
Really good.

S3 and Iphone 4s have exactly the same battery drain. Maybe S3 will last a little longer,max 30 min.
Btw,firstly,Note 3 is out,already for a while. Secondly,Note is highly recommended,as it can last 7 hours of screen-on time and performance is beast. It's ideally designed for heavy users.
You can buy an s3 an put the Liquid Smooth Rom On it works Very Very Smooth better then the original and also you can flash custom Kernel that Optimize your Battery life i do That too and my battery still keeping full after a long Schoolday (listening music, playing games and so on)

You can always buy a zerolemon battery and your phone will last couple of days with heavy use

Cool. Thinking about flashing back to stock to get this setup. Especially since new radio and bootloader. Want to make sure I get everything updated properly.
Your lucky, mine is getting hot during idle(never dozing) and consuming battery like never before, the radio was even worse until I flashed angler 2.50, i am getting lag all the time. I'm going to wipe the phone and see if that helps.
My mic doesnt work due to update so phone calls aren't a thing :'(

Can confirm. Got 6.5 yesterday with 18% left to spare at 16 hours of total usage. I doubt the regular S7 can do that though.

I can agree!! This new build update had made my Nexus 6p phenomenal!! Fixed everything that was wrong, and I'm 100% stock as well.
Didn't fix the slo-mo bug.
I agree that this new update is really nice but I was hoping it would fix the popping noise when recording video.
I still have the att LTE issues. Maybe you just haven't gotten one yet?

Only way I'd rock a S7 is if it was free. ;p
I think people who get not so good battery live in poor coverage areas or poorer than others and that's the deal... I'm 5&6 sot.
I've been on latest for 2 days now and def agree with people. It's best update yet.
