hi,
i'm planning to get either 1 of the phones mentioned in the title, does anyone know which one has better battery performance?
rn3 use more power because of larger screen (5.5" vs 5"), more pixels (FHD vs HD), more powerful processor & gpu
It's gives me 1 full day easily even with moderate usage... Eg. 3hrs music, 1hr30min Movie, some calls, 3G/Wi-Fi on mostly, some pics, some videos and I still have 20% remaining..
I find this good..
Redmi Note 3 32GB ROM 3GB RAM
From what I've heard they're pretty much the same (around 10h sot).
friend has redmi 3 and it get almost every time about 12h sot (never under 10h sot) and 2 days of use with calls, messaging, browsing, games. this phone has really good battery backup, better then rn3
I sold Redmi 3 Pro. I got there ~10-12 SoT. I now have Redmi Note 3 Pro... but you need to wait for me to report it (i got it today).
Mention me after ~5 days.
Getting 3 days usage on miui , 2,5 on cm13 . Around 10-12 sometimes 13h SOT

Nope, Redmi 3Pro is much better. Got both of them with xiaomi.eu Rom.
10h with Redmi 3 Pro = no problem

yes, it should be...
but both r3p and rn3p report around 10h SoT.
I have rn3p and can confirm I usually get around 10h SoT with MIUI/AOSP/CM13
Nope, I mean real use, over 50 Apps, with WA, gaming...
Redmi Note 3 Pro about ~8h
Redmi 3 Pro +10h
But the Redmi Note 3 Pro is much better (650 is much better).
Strange question really. Completely different phones for different segments. Both have excellent battery life, the decision should be between size and processor etc. For me the RN3P is a fantastic value in terms of performance/price/battery life. I don't think anything can match it based on those three criteria.
Just from my experience with the RN3 Pro:
Battery life is fantastic, imo. Easily lasts for 3 days every-day use without ever getting near a point where I really look for the next charge (<15%). Even playing demanding games I would estimate it will last for more than 5 hours (haven't played that long yet, though).
Hello guys i am little confused to buy a new device since are lots of out there.and i think this is a perfect place to know your opinions about v10.
I am using samsung galaxy note 4 right now and i am about to buy lg v10 cuz i like the design and socendery display.
So what's your suggestions guys should i upgrade from note 4 to v10 or it should be not good upgrade?
How is the performance compare to note 4 ?
And how is the battery life ? I heard snapdragon 808 has lot heating issues and battery drain
Thank you.
808 doesn't have heating issues like the 810.
I upgraded from the note 3 to the v10 and there was a night and day difference. I'm not sure the difference would be as noticable from a note 4.
The problem with the v10 is definitely the battery life, fortunately you can get battery packs with double (6400 mAh) or triple the capacity (9000 mAh) which makes the battery life good enough.
I like my v10 but unless you've got either an aftermarket battery pack or a spare battery the battery life is pretty terrible.

Depends on what you expect...Phone seems durable. No custom ROM'S jet (probably never), batt. is so-so...camera compared to your note4 is maybe slight better...but just because manual mode.
I'm still waiting for that ''perfect phone'' to be out.
I honestly think you should keep your note 4, buy a spare battery pack, and install a note 7 rom, because the battery life in this phone isn't all that, and there is no support for this phone
I've not seen any discussion on battery life since the launch of the Note 10. Would people please share:
1. How is it now that there's been time for Samsung to fix early issues
2. Did Android 10 upgrade help?
3. Does it last through a day of heavy use?
4. Snapdragon or Exynos?
More info: I'm considering buying the Note 10 but the original reviews are mixed. Some say battery life is good but most say it's disappointing. It would be to replace an iPhone XS that is 12 months old, battery health is a shocking 84% and the SoT time is less than 3 hours, so I won't be buying any more overpriced junk from Apple. I'm in the UK so would be getting the Exynos unless I take a risk and grey import a Snapdragon, and live without the warranty.
More battery life is *always* better, but I really have no complaints about my Note 10 battery. It lasts all day, every day. I average 5.5 hours SOT, but it would get a lot more if I pushed it below 10% charge. However, I rarely let it drop below 30%, or fully charge to 100%. I try to take it off the charger between 60-80% to preserve long-term battery life. So while 5.5 hours SOT may seem low to other Note users, I am averaging 5.5 hours SOT from only a 50-70% charge, which is pretty damn good imo.
I disabled some apps that I'll never use, but otherwise I don't need to gimp it to make it through the day. I noticed a slight improvement in battery life with Android 10. I don't do much gaming, but I do a lot of web browsing, YouTube, and listen to Google Play Music and Sirius XM, and it has no problems lasting a full day.
I have the Snapdragon model. I don't have any experience with the Exynos model, but if you are in the UK, then I would recommend going with Exynos just for the warranty. There may be some YouTube videos comparing the battery and performance differences, you may want to look for those. I remember a couple of years ago the Exynos models were noticeably worse as far as battery, but I think the latest Exynos chips have closed the gap.
If battery life is a top priority, then you should consider the Note 10+ which has 23% larger battery (4300 vs 3500 mAh).
One last thing to consider: The Galaxy S20 models are right around the corner. I am not trying to talk you out of a Note, but if you can live without the Spen, you might want to wait for the Galaxy S20 Plus and Ultra. The Plus model is supposed to have a 4500 mAh battery, and the Ultra is rumored to have a massive 5000 mAh battery.
Edit: Btw, congrats on graduating from iOS. You'll love the customizability of Android, and now that RCS is available, you won't miss iMessage as much :good:

Battery time is average.
battery timing is inversely proportional to the time you are free

Thanks for taking the time to reply - appreciate it. Sounds like our usage patterns are similar. I don’t really game but I use web and media on public transport for a couple of hours a day, in poor signal areas so every phone I’ve had struggles.
Am trying to keep phone size down, the Note 10 Plus is definitely too big! I like the fact that with the standard Note 10 it’s almost the same size as my current iPhone XS, just 5mm taller.
Re graduating (haha) I’ve had android before. Before this iPhone I had the OnePlus 5T and really liked it until I changed cars and it completely refused to talk to the audio system.
I found a YouTube video comparing the Qualcomm and Exynos Note 10’s and in his test he got 7 hrs from the Exynos and 8hrs from the Snapdragon. Wow, bit of a difference.
Will see what the S20 (standard size) is like, and then decide whether to risk an imported Note 10 [emoji106]

Correction, the video of the Snapdragon getting another hour of screen time is the S10, not the Note 10, which means the Exynos is the 8nm 9820 rather than the 9825 in the Note.

So i got my Exynos note10 (not a new one, a used one but in a good shape) a week ago running android Q, and the battery drain was a little bit higher than average (compared to what people claiming in the battery section). So i decided to do a fresh reset by flashing a firmware using odin, after that i did some optimizations, disabling features that i dont really need, debloating some apps and waiting for the phone to learn my battery usage pattern (it took me around 4-5 days).So now I can get 7 to 8 hours of SOT using Chrome as my web browser, social media apps, and youtube. So yeah i think the 3500 mah battery is doing a pretty good job.
That’s really good, lots of owners don’t get that out of the Plus model

Can you tell us more what did you disable, what did you uninstall/disabled and more...

So the first thing i did was to flash a stock firmware and root it using magisk. Then i charged my phone until it get 100%, i use it until it dies and cannot get booted again (when the phone dies keep rebooting it until it cannot get rebooted again). I did the charging and discharging thing twice. I think this step is like calibrating your battery, correct me if I am wrong.
Then thanks to this post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10/how-to/galaxy-note-10-note-10-plus-debloat-t3964225 i debloated Bixby, samsung pass / pay , samsung sticker center... Do this step at your own risk because you can brick your phone if you didnt choose correctly what to debloat.
Then i enabled Adaptive power saving, put unused apps to sleep, Optimise Battery usage and i restricted background activity and i use dark mode all the time.
I disabled Air action and all features related to S pen ( i only use s pen for writing).
You may not notice a big difference in the battery life until your phone learns usage pettern ("Learning pattern" usage becomes "An estimated time" in device care battery's section)
If you are on a rooted phone then you can use greenify to hibernate other apps.
Additional information, my phone battery drains from like 100% to 80% much quicker and then it start to go slower and slower because each battery behaves in a different way.
Took another look at the Note 10 today and think it's an absolutely stunning looking device. Best looking phone around for me. I noted in the Samsung store that they don't offer any sort of satisfaction guarantee, which is disappointing. Would have been tempted to take one if I had some insurance on the battery life not working out.
But the S20 has now launched, and it's impressive from a specs point of view. Time to see how the S20 reviews play out.

Yes, the S20 phones are phenomenal, especially the S20 Ultra. Which means the Note 11/20 will be an absolute beast

You are wrong this is really old battery habits. For several years and actual battery tech it's not recommended to fully discharge , the best way to improve battery life is to stay over 20% and avoid fast charging. That is also not how phone calibrates batteries.

Battery life on the Snapdragon Note 10+ has been great. It stayed consistent with the Android 10 update. I had the Note 8 before this phone, and I'd have to say the 10+ is better.
Indeed the difference is not so abysmal as before

Actually, there is a comparison for Note 10+ Exynos vs Snapdragon and indeed, the difference in battery is now minimal, of course the weak point for the Exynos is still the Mali GPU. So it looks like for power comsuption is now more even between Exynos 9825 and Snapdragon 855 (which is kind of obvious since both are 7nm)

Interesting thanks.
One of the things I’ve been bitten with on iPhones is the effect on battery life of the inferior Intel modems they’ve been using for the last few years. I went from an iPhone SE to an Xs and the difference in signal strength was definitely noticeable, and that will affect power consumption too.
I’m not saying this is the same with the Exynos modem but do tend to think that at this point, Qualcomm modems are the better

Dear XDA members;
So, I've bought note 20 ultra a few weeks ago (refurbished, great condition!)
I've switched from Galaxy Fold 1 and from what I'm seeing, the battery life is almost 2x more horrid!
I've been trying to use it in order for it to get adjusted to my patterns, still, nothing special happened after weeks of usage.
I've tried everything - naptime + turning off adaptive battery; turning it back on and deep sleeping the apps, changing the settings for maximum battery life etc. Wiped the cache and reset my phone, still nothing. NOTHING helps!
I've even decided to buy a new battery! My battery life is still horrible. Based on the reviews, I should be getting decent battery life, however, it is about 2.5-3h of SoT... Idle battery drain is also insane...
I'm using android 13 and I've noticed that a lot of people seem to write that it's the problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I install some custom rom? If so, which one would you suggest?
I REALLY love this phone and I REALLY want it's battery to last for at least 4-5h of SoT...
Thanks A LOT in advance!
Best regards!
I think sadly that's normal for the Exynos phone. It was always the thing fro me, I've had it since November 2020. My screen and battery were changed a month before the 2 year warranty ran out, and with a new battery I still get around 2-3 hours of SOT
3h sot is ok!I still have ny N20 but iḿ using a Google Pixel Pro,new!and 3 h ,perhabs a little bit more is what it gives!I will keep my N20 ;its a mess what Samsung is doing!And this for many years!For example;my Note 3 or my Note 4 were wonderful Phones,realy!With new Baterys they can do a good job ,eveb in 2023 with Androis 13,they give **** of this!And so i quitt Samsung,leider!
Hey guys I was actually scouting for new devices when I found a unboxed but new edge 30 pro for a great price. So my question is, is it a good device and should I even consider buying it. Also on the same point how is the battery life which is my greatest worry considering the 8 gen 1 in it. And how is the stock ui been.
Thank you !
Welp, phone seems pretty nice,
But 5000mAh battery scares me.
its not worth it, battery life is atrocious, updates are the worst in Android world, has no telephoto whatsoever, if u are into stock just get Pixel or Oneplus
OnePlus seems to be a problematic about its firmware and productivity,
Redmi or poco would be nice
Samsung would be nice too.
OnePlus with custom rom is considered best + it's snapdragon not overheating Tensor mess, Xiaomi with AOSP if any for newer devices, is trash and is best used with MIUI ( noone really likes that )
Of course it is, Xiaomi phones only indeed to work nicely with MIUI,
My battery lasts easily 1 day, sometimes up to 2, I really have no clue why are people complaining - are y'all running with all your services turned on constantly?...
literally everyone who owns a motorola device is complaining in their official forums so you gotta be using it for phone calls only and not as a top dog smart device, the drain on that thing is insane, if i bring my old Snapdragon 865 device running both @ 144hz , Moto will be fully dead while the other will be at over 60%
US equivalent is Edge+2022
A13 has battery improved, but it has minor flickering issue due to inconsistent brightness on different refresh rate. Set it on 60 or 144Hz can avoid the issue

I don't complain. I have Moto device (mid-range) and it has been very good since 2019. Month ago i changed new battery and now it's still good for next three years
Battery life is also great. 2 days easily and 7-8H sot usually with 60% usage.

Ah i see, yeah i would love to do that but the reason i was considering the edge 30 pro was due to a fantastic deal. After some days of researching i beleive this is a good device with a minor caviate being the battery life
Hopefully once i do get the device the battery wouldn't be too much of an issue, and i don't find any other skeltons in the closet. (Maybe i might even be pleasently suprised by the battery life considering my 888 is not a high bar to clear)

Ah, i see from what i have read though even with the x30 being an inferno, the edge 30 pro was quite good with head management, i hope that statement is actually true and not just reviewer fluff
there is no heat management, device is very plasticky and thus has no vapor chamber solution, heat is not an issue, battery suffers from poor governors, if u are buying from china unlock bootloader and use it with custom rom
