Yeah, this is a frustrating aspect of these phones... Everyone has their own use case. No two people use their phones alike... different apps, used at different times with different settings and different network quality... A bad LTE or WiFi signal can use 10 to 100 times more power than a strong, clean signal.
So you can have two people with the same phone sitting next to each other and one gets 6 hours of usage and only needs to charge once a day and the person next to them might struggle to get 3 hours or so and their looking for a charger by dinner.
And because there are a million moving parts, it's really difficult to fix because, in reality, there is really nothing wrong. The phone is using all that power because it needs to do so to meet your usage demands.
