I bought my Galaxy S7 from AT&T last monday, and i've been loving it a lot. But a few days later, I started to notice how bad the battery life was for me. at first I could barely get around 4 and a half hours without dropping below 20%, so I uninstalled facebook. The first day of having it uninstalled was good, I got around 8 hours out of it that time, but that wasn't even close to enough just to get me through the day. Yesterday was probably my worst time yet, only about 6 hours of battery and only 4 hours of screen on time, which was ridiculous. Here were the stats: http://i.imgur.com/edhyqbv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/kIWH07i.png
Now I tried to see if my screen is the problem, at 20% of battery i dropped it down about quarter way, and it still burned through it like mad. It bums me out, since I love this phone, but i'm worried to use it through the day just so I can use it when it's really important. Last night I did an idle test by leaving it unplugged all night, and it went from 80% to 55% over about 9 hours, with AOD on, though. Could that be linked to the problem?
