Didn't check that when taking the screen shot but it's currently 4 hours 18 minutes. I've been keeping the screen on more to get it killed before going to bed and it's now down to 19%. Brightness has always been on manual and midrange.

Thanks! I'm gonna put my brights on manual mid too and see how that treats me rather than auto.

pretty useless posting pictures of the battery chart without posting the SOT. The phones will last for weeks if you dont use the screen lol. Im curious overall, is 6 hours of screen on time about when the phone starts to get close to dead however long the total battery time is?

Agreed. I've been averaging 7-9 hours SOT before putting on charger. Really been putting it through the paces these first few days.

Maybe someone can help me...I assumed better than this. Left my phone on the Nokia wireless charger till 8:30am this morning. 99% when I looked at it as I was taking it off. Phone died at 7 PM. My kids had played a few games, some video and regular use on WiFi thru the day... and I've only had it three days. Fri,sat, today. Put it on turbo charger at 7:45, unplugged at 12:00. Check these screenshots out.... Not too great if you ask me. Brightness at 50%.

Android OS & Google services should not be that high. I think you have a misbehaving app or launcher.

For those interested here are my stats after my first 100% charge. My screen is on Auto, 4G, WiFi, & GPS all turned on, 4 weather widgets running updating every 30 minutes (yes four to see which is most accurate), 2 emails accounts updating every 15 minutes and just over an hour of phone calls.

I'm pretty happy with the time on battery...40 hours.

Does anyone notice when you are in the area of 89% battery life and you put it on a wireless charger, that it automatically goes to 100% within a second?

It's been a while since Ive used an android device. Any suggestions to fixing this. I don't think I should have lost that much battery over night.

That looks normal for all that you're running, especially the battery hogging Facebook and FB Chat. How many hours of screen time is the real question?

Yes, I think the battery/charger is still learning the capacity so early in the game. It should settle down as it calibrates itself.
