Problem with p20 pro battery?

[Acopella 95]

I have huawei mate 9 Pro and huawei p20 pro. I've notice something that I find it so weird and question myself is my p20 pro having issue with battery life.

HUAWEI mate 9 pro battery 77% and can last approx 18 hours

Huawei battery p20 pro 100% and can last approx only 15 hours WHAT!!

If turn on power saving mode.
Mate 9 Pro - 20 hours
P20 pro - 16 hours???? What happen to the 4000 mah?

I bought mine not long ago just 9 April
I was incredible the battery can last 1 day approx. After use for few weeks and update it change so fast.

I have also found the battery to be hit and miss. I still get through a work day without having to charge but I was expecting it to be a machine and last well over a day :-\

I've been reading quite a few reviews saying their P20 Pro wasn't getting the same battery life that the Mate 10 Pro did either. They said it was still good just not AS good. I mentioned the same thing to someone yesterday about how the Mate 10 Pro had less than great battery life when it was first launched but was soon fixed with software updates and it's been fantastic since. Maybe the P20 Pro just needs the same and will be better after an update? Fingers crossed

Hopefully the next update can fix that. I was so disappointed after I see my battery life approx only 15 hours even on 100% and constantly drain battery as well when I'm not even using it.

The estimated time left is just that. Estimated. It updates based on your usage and as the machine learning gets an idea of how you use your phone, it gets more accurate.

Is it? I hope that's right otherwise I gonna be so disappointed as it keeps drain my battery quite fast even not using it.

I've had 9hrs screen on time some days, and it still lasted 19 hrs total that day even though it said I had 16hrs at the start of the day.
This example of my usage shows nearly 7hrs screen on time with 36% battery remaining and my screen usage includes a lot of video.

I see. Using p20 pro as well? Seems like you use dark interface.

Yeah, this is the pro. I use the dark mode because it's easier on my eyes, I don't go into the settings menus enough for it to make a huge difference to battery life.

Wow! Was looking at P20 PRO in EU as an offer comes with a free 360 camera... but definitely a pass with this battery life! Top of the line price and device but totally inadequate if can't last a day!

It has never failed to go past a whole day for me.

 

[orangecroc]

Mine is at 14hrs today and hasn't even dropped to 40% yet.

As one of the poster said above, that figure is merely an estimate, non conclusive. It changes depending on personal usage of the phone

the mere fact of this thread is the doubts the battery has of P20 PRO. Now that is very conclusive but shows how important it is to keep proof of evidence!

Yes, it is definitely an estimation based on your usage for that day. My Pixel 2 does the same thing. Sometimes it'll say I have a day and six hours left of use; and other times, when I'm using it more heavily, it'll say 22 hours or something. Don't worry!

Also, as orangecroc above me stated, it'll take a little while/some charging cycles for the phone to become more intuitive and to perform at its maximum with regards to battery.

I got the phone last week and get two days legit, 8 hrs SOT yesterday.

Wow, that's so awesome! And congratulations on your new phone - that's so awesome!
