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 A1 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Good. I'm getting a consistent 6hrs+ SOT on average usage.
Battery life is excellent getting 6hrs+ sot with jio network and 64 GB card. Really impressed with 3080 mAh battery.
6hr+ sot with 18 to 25hr of standby and with 2hr + voice
First discharge cycle
1 hr of voice calling apart from the screen on time

I don't know why but some one who knew his way around batteries told me is damaging and that a phone is good to charge in small intervals and not from 0-100. More like from 10-90

Totally nonsense.
Btw check your apps, some app is badly misbehaving and it drains your battery.
It is not really, I am using only Google apps, Twitter and Reddit, and everything in the battery manager is behaving totally normal.

Well I guess that you can try to reflash the ROM with preserving data, wait couple of days and see if it gets better.
Or your signal reception is very bad.

To all SGS2 owners,
Can you tell me how long this device last, generally use and talk time?
Some sites indicate it has 8 hrs talk time but others such AT&T itself, BestBuy, Costco do say it only has 3 hrs talk time.
So is it only 3 hrs?
on OEM battery: 10 hr and 30 minutes today and still at 74% medium usage
as for talk time i dont talk for hours and hours so i dont know lol but i can make all the calls i need and have plenty of juice.. i recommend using a cutom ROM like unnamed to save battery
on the extended 3500 battery: i got 41 hr and 30 minutes and i was at 19%
62% left after what I consider heavy use. E-mail, GPS, Wifi always on. It's a work phone so multiple calls during the day.
I'm using Unnamed ROM and even updated the ROM today to the latest version on battery. (hence the dip in the graph )

This device gets excellent battery life, especially after you root and freeze useless apps. Alternatively, just install UnNamed ROM.
Mine is bone stock with nothing more then Juice Defender. Tons of app's Medium use my best is 2 days 1 hours and change. Heavy use, Streaming 4-5 hours, lots of talk time and text with surfing with mail was my worst at 10 hours 48 min.
I am VERY happy with the battery life!
my phone is usually dead within 8-10 hours.. light usages in my view..
Alls i can say is that i went from 100-0 in 6-8 hours stock rom to 24-30 hours + with unamed rom... cant thank gtg enough

That is because you phone is awake 80% of the time according to your screenshot. If you want to improve battery life, look for the app that is causing it to stay awake.

You get only 8 hours because your phone never goes into deep sleep.. It is awake most of the time.. You may want to look into that..

Battery life is so dependent on your usage that almost all comparisons are worthless. I have learned its best to just make sure everything is running as efficiently as possible.
Surprising how some are getting a days worth on the battery.. I'm lucky to get 14 hours..
I can go 8 hours tool its dead or 14 with life to spare. It usually depends on how bored I am at work.
That's why I said its almost too subjective to compare.

The battery drain during usage is within the normal, but in standby it is too high, which I do not understand!

Using the battery app see what app or service is keeping your phone awake. That would be my guess as to what the problem is. I would also suggest flashing cpalmers kernel as well, which has been really good for me in limiting awake time.

Install BatteryGuru, give it a couple days to learn how you use your phone, and watch how it saves your battery once the learning period is done. I swear by this app, it brought me from almost a day to about a day and a half as far as battery life is concerned.
I installed the Gsam battery, it shows that "phone radio" was sucking down a vast majority of the battery.

Then you must be in an area where service isn't good and your phone is searching for service which kills the battery quickly. To conserve battery turn on air plan mode and then turn service on when you get into a zone with better coverage. This will help your battery a lot.

My opinion..don't install any more apps than what you only use. You install more apps it will obviously suck more battery. What you do. Root/unlocked the bootloader and install a sense 5 4.1.2 base Rom. I came from stock and since I've installed a sense 5 stock Rom I've notice a big battery saver comparing from the original sense 4+ stock.hopefully that helps.
Thanks all
Strangely none of this helped the battery drain is too high in standby, after resting (no apps installed only stoke apps) and even flashing sense 5 rom still 15% per hour and even in Air plan mode . The strange thing during the use of the phone the drain is normal.
Hello all forum members,
i have recently bought a moto e and been using it for over a week now. the mobile has been performing very well. however recently i noticed that the battery life for my moto e is coming to around less than 1 day. For instance yesterday i had taken it completely charged in morning around 7 am from house. i did not charge it through the day. it had mobile data on through the day.background applications were running like the updates, location, emails etc which are usually on. at home i have wi fi and used it along with a small time of playing games (may be half to one hr). by the time i had gone to rest, the battery was around 13 percent and phone was dead when i got up.
so it lost around 87% charge in 14-15 hours.
is this normal time to expect on battery? i read people claiming more than 1 day with normal usage.
please help me out with this as i am concerned whether to return the phone or get a replacement.
thank you,
Tarun

It's completely normal. Moto E's battery last for that much time only.
It's totally fine!

I meant a smartphone
I am getting a SOT of (mostly indoor use):
1- Only 2g all day - 5.5+ hours
2- 2g and Wifi(wifi mainly used) all day- 6.5+ hours
3-Only wifi all- 7+ hours
And a average standby time of around 24 hours with that SOT
I am not a intensive gamer, my usage pattern includes mainly using messaging services,watching videos on youtube,listening to music.
Snapshots of battery life
i am attaching the two screenshots i took yesterday. i have tried calibrating my battery as what Matt has suggested on motorola forums for moto-g.
discharged the phone completely, charged it to 100% without turning it on. kept at 100% for 4 more hours, removed from charger, turned it on for 3-5 mins, then put it off and charged it again for 1 hour. repeated this cycle for 1 more time.
after this calibration even, i am getting a low usable battery life i think. 13 hours to 5% charge. during the last few hours (around 2-3 hours) i was chatting on whatsapp and listening to FM radio, so the screen was on as shown, other services were on like location, mobile data, auto brightness.
can anyone tell me if this is normal?, people are claiming a battery life of more than 1 day. now i am getting really worried.
thank you,
Tarun

7-8 hrs on Full network on and medium brightness
Minimum of 5.30 hrs on full brightness and 4g+youtube
Maximum is 9.30 low brightness no data and only text and calls in b/w.
Anywhere between 8 to 9 hrs with moderate to heavy usage, wifi,data always on. Occasionally over 9.5 hrs on casual usage with video streaming, music etc
8 hrs under heavy usage (games, browsing, music, listening to music while browsing and gaming). Haven't tested light usage, maybe it'll pass 9-10 hrs.
6-7h on mobile network
8-9h on WiFi

Yes... The stand by time is really good on this phone... I had the phone off the charger for 8 hours and barely used it all day ( busy day at work ) and I was still at 89 Percent at the end of the day... It definitely takes a few cycles still you notice major major changes .
I have exinos and never had a worse phone regarding battery life and heating. I tried all possible solutions for increasong battery life but still I get only 3-4 hours of SOT with a total of about just 15 hours!!!
What iritates me the most is that I do not have mjch apps and all is set to sleep and everything possible but the phone still randomly gets super hot even when nothing is runing, which then drains the battery too.
The drain overnight is also bad, it is draining 1-2% per hour.
Poor battery life . Same result even after carrier sent a replacement.
cant believe that i have s9 plus exynos and battery life is really not good for me.

i have finished to migrate from iPhone 6 plus to S9 Plus (SnapDragon) but until now (only 1 day) the battery seems to be worst. i will wait for more days and search what i should to change to make the battery have a longer life. What turn off; what consumes more battery and so on.

iPhone's plus versions are better in total battery life. Used a iphone 7 plus for a year & seeing th difference. Refrain from doing anything on th SnapDragon.It would sattle itself.
