how is the 5x battery compared to original N5?

[ianhanson85]

Still rocking an original N5 thinking about upgrading to 5X. On kit Kat battery life was just wonderful. I was getting between 4-5 hours SOT all day. Then came lollipop and marshmallow. I'm lucky to get 2-2 1/2 hours. I know the 5X has a bigger battery but is the battery life any better compared to the original N5? What kind of usage are you guys getting? Thanks

I can't speak to the original 5 but 've been averaging 4:30-4:45 hours of SOT since the 6.01 update which is more than respectable for a 2700 mAh battery.

That's great. I dropped a new battery in my N5 this past August and I I'm barely at 3 hours SOT today.

Yikes. I can barely get 3.5hrs SOT on mine, and all I do is browser, Google Now, Facebook, and RSS reader.

Yes, FB is greenified. Mine drops 10% in two hours of sitting on my desk, unused.
