If only gaming on PUBG SOT drop to 4h since the game has a drain of 25%/h
I rarely let the battery drop below 20% and charge more than 80% to limit stress on battery, and it last for a full day.
BLA-L29 156C432
Wifi, data, gps, screen rotation always ON.
Cool! There might be differenciation between the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro in terms of SOT because both the phones have a OLED and LCD Screen. I'm easily achieving 6hr 45min of SOT provided that I charge the battery up to 100 percent and a depletion now lesser than 20 percent.
Gaming vice, yes. PUBG is a CPU / GPU hogging game whereby it sucks the most out of it. Depleting battery with a higher temperature is one of the contributing factor to a sturdy battery. GPU Turbo does indeed help in terms of thermal dissipation but then no much can be done since Mate 10 doesn't have the liquid cooling technology.
Yep, I'm using only black/grey background, it can help a lot since screen is like 60% of the drain in normal use.
I forgot to say it was with auto brightness ON too.
For me the mate 10 pro is really good with this game. Best battery drain of all the coworker team when playing, including iPhone 8+, one plus 5t, mate 9, iPhone5s (that just literaly burn in 20 minutes xD). Temperature are good too, since it's just warm like 35-38°C, with higher settings after 30min of game. But I still don't have GPU turbo, dunno why, I don't have the game center app. It was said activating it drains more battery, so I don't really care, I play on Switch and PC, phone are just for little break and 30FPS are far enought for me.
I think 3-4h SOT on handeld gaming is really great, Switch and 3DS don't do far more on demanding games.
My 950XL with liquid cooling got hotter, but Snapdragon 810 had an infamous hot temper too.
It was great but after October google's security update it doesn't seem well (no idea why this happened) and now im wating for pie maybe it gets a bit better
And I use my phone a lot (3 charges a day from 40 to 80 usually) and never lets it's charge drop below 40%

Greetings,
I am looking for a lightweight, Android phone - particularly interested in MI5 and A9. MI5 seems to be a fantastic all-rounder and it is very tempting to buy that. But, I like the HTC one A9 too.
Keeping the performance and price difference aside AND considering the Display,Audio and Camera quality...which is the better device..i am asking this because I got used to HTC and Sense and I kinda trust HTC quality..not sure whether switching to Xiaomi over HTC is a good idea..what do you say?
I have used both phones and both phones are amazing.
HTC One A9 is an amazing phone and doesnt have that many performance issues. Camera is quite good too.
Now for the two huge cons:
1) Display - Maximum brightness is 368 nits and its almost impossible to see anything on the screen when outside. Absolutely hated that. Compare it to Xiaomi Mi 5 which has maximum brightness of 650 nits and amazing bright sunlight readability
2) Battery: This was more pathetic than you can imagine. With 100% in the morning, i ended up at 30% by late afternoon and there is no way that the phone can last one day. Considering I am a light user, this battery life is crap at a different level. Even with Quick Charge 3.0 (you will have to buy a compatible charger separately), you will have the fear of the phone dying on you at all times. Mi5 has amazing battery life even while using both sim cards.
I like HTC Sense too but the drawbacks on HTC One A9 are too huge to compromise onl
that alone should rule the HTC out of the conversation - that battery life is pathetic

the only problem that may happen to you is not liking MIUI... I can''t really trust the non-Miui roms without the kernel released
You should buy the MI5 ,its SoC is much better and the other specs ,too.Battery life is amazing , mine has about 5-6hr SoT.Overall a great phone.
If you were comparing the Mi 5 to the HTC 10, it would be a tougher decision.
In this case, not only do you get massively superior performance out of the Mi 5, but also the battery life is also quite amazing. Note that the A9 is using a Snapdragon 617, scoring ~40k on the AnTuTu benchmark, while a Mi 5's Snapdragon 820 is able to score above 140k. A previous comment also noted GSMArena's battery test results--the Mi 5's rated for more twice the web browsing time.
For more info check these reviews:
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one_a9-review-1331.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_5-review-1411.php
GSMArena's reviews are quite detailed and should help you gain a better understanding of the two devices.
My Redmi note 3 has developed a battery bloat (Bulge) and the screen has changed its flat to a curve shape. I went through some other forums about batteries and came to know that you are running a video or movie or playing a game while the phone is charging then it leads to a buildup of gas due to over heating. So its suggested that avoid usage of heavy apps on your phone while its charging (like even google maps navigation while charging) .
Can you post some pics of your curved phone....
You got a curved phone in the price of normal phone, you are lucly....
Yes thats the disadvantage of Quick Charge...
The Lipo Battery can not handle the high Charging Juice... It heats up and can blow up...
Look at Samsung etc...
Use a regular Charger... Yes it takes a few hours to Charger but it is much better for your battery, with QC lifetime is half compared to regular Charging... Think about it when buying a Phone with non removable Battery
Sorry for my Bad English
buy a new battery they are like $7 or return it under warranty if you don't want to open it, Lithium battery's are dangerous, don't charge the phone unattended since it can explode or start a fire.
IMO warranty is the choice
yeah I would return it for a replacement, xiaomi should know about this if it's a problem, remember this phone has a 4000mAh battery which is even more then the Samsung Galaxy S7s battery (3500 mAh).

^ better safe then sorry
RN3P doesn't support quick charge. And what the heck... If I navigate with gmaps o nokia Here I need to charge the phone while driving.
This battery has a malfunction... One out of thousands..
But I would also like to see some pictures of the phone
If you use charger provided with the phone, it is better.
Avoid heavy games and watching HD/youtube videos for longer time while charging for safer side.
Can you please post some pictures? It must be a rare case. Never heard about this. If there is effect on screen, and phone body, as you're saying, you should contact Xiaomi, if they can do something, as battery problems come under warranty.
My redmi note 3 too have this swelling of battery within 6 months of use. I have to literally fight with the service center guys to get it submitted. One said its covered in warranty then a next guy rejected that its not. Its been around 20 days and still no reply from them. Their landline phone is never connected and they never call back. Service combination of Xiaomi and HCL is worst. Xiaomi don't provide the HCL the parts and the guy hired by HCL are worst and ill-mannered.
Day by day the battery size get bigger and bigger. The back panel and screens started getting out from the sides. Here are the images of phone due to swelling of battery.
Looks like images are not allowed for new users

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Not for me.
What's the temperature you guys get?
My phone at times shoots to 38 - 40 degrees celsius on normal usage.
At my intensity of the work my phone never goes above 40 degree celsius in the normal use and it remains cool for the most of the time
It remains cool all the time and I'm loving Snapdragon already. My last device was RN4X with that terrible Mediatek Chipset and boy not only it's so power hungry, but also constantly go over 44C all the time, record was 47C and I thought it was gonna explode at that time. Below is a proof that I game a lot with this device, it's not PUBG but still demanding enough cause it runs in 60FPS.

I play PUBG at max settings and the CPU temp reaches 47-48° at times and the phone does get hot then. On average 42-44 provided I'm in a well ventilated environment. Anyone else with same readings ?

44 degrees in a well ventilated environment is quite a bit! Do you observe any throttling issues when the phone get's heated up?
I noticed the phone's getting heated up while on Facebook only when outdoors in daylight..
Does anyone have the same issue?
Overall speed is good...
App launching speed is very nice.
Multitasking is good...
Scrolling smoothness is also good...
Heating issue raises on video calling... Other than this there are no other issues with performance.
Gets hot in Summers
Gets really hot in summers 45+. But in other seasons no it was normal 35-40.
Never rises above 43 when gaming or charging. Average is 36-38.
I am using my new Asus Zenfone 8 Flip the second day. I am disappointed. I use it normally as all my other phones, a bit of videos, a bit of photos, browsing youtube. Half a day battery is flat. The screen was 60 Hz. Battery settings: Optical/Dynamic. Double checked if there is any draining app - nothing found.
All my other phones would work at least three-four times longer (and I had very good phones!). I am disappointed. It is not worth the price.
Battery is fine for me, not worse than op7 before. Although I charge only up to 90%.
But in total, I'm not that happy either - the fingerprint sensor kills it off for me.

After using Xiaomi Mi Max 1, then Mi Max 2 and Mi Max 3 with their unkillable batteries that can work 2 or even 3 days in a row, I wonder how even people pay that money for phones that hardly survive by the end of the day.
Fingerprint sensor sucks too. Indeed.
Has anyone noticed that if you listen music from Spotify or youtube in background with an adapter and you open a game (not an app, only game) the music quality Will lower extremely? It Is really annoying
it shouldn't... powerusage seems quite average.

But for some reason the WiFi test seems worse.

Why don't you just take a Bugreport and upload it here: https://bathist.ef.lc/
Then you would know why battery life sucks

You may press a bit when setup but to unlock you just need to put/touch a little and sensor will scan your fingertips. Easy to unlock

Cannot Check again, I swapped back to op7.
Now, half a year later I am on op9pro ;-)
I just got the 8 Flip and I was also expecting it could last over 24h on my non gaming use.
I installed GSam, Naptime and Greenify to try to save some battery, but I'm still struggling to save battery.
Disable 5G? Just got the phone. first thing I did.. I don't give a f... about 5g..
Ok, I just saw this on sakitech but I thought it worth mentioning. Making this change has reduced my power usage to approximately 3-4% per hour with regular use, so far today. Which is amazing for me.
Under settings, battery, go to the bottom, more battery settings, performance profile. Change it to LIGHT.
I feel absolutely no difference on the device in terms of usage. It still feels just as fast. Scream has not dropped in display quality and nor has brightness gone down. But the battery life is just better for me.
Interested to know if anyone else has done this and seen any difference.
I want S23 ultra levels of battery performance, not iPhone. I'm loving the battery life on this thing!

Yes, agreed. It's amazing. This seems to have made it even better.
Just switched over to light, let's see what happens. Though I've routinely been getting 11 of SOT so it wasn't that bad to begin with.

I've tried both modes and I didn't find any diffirence. Both modes are snappy and battery life is about the same. Maybe it's just for me tho. I did a geekbench benchmark and results about the same too
Well my battery is at 70% after nearly 8 hours since I powered up. That's unheard of for me on a Samsung device. I'm usually below 40% by now.
Have given it a go. Cheers for the tip
