It depends on the settings but 3.5 hours for 1% is certainly possible

Not bad when you don't use the phone. Now a days a lot of phones can idle for a long long time.

If I know I'm gonna have a heavy usage day, I use UPSM the night before up until I get to work. I lose only 2-4% idling for about 10-12 hours.

I charge my Note 4 to when it's at 100% prior to sleep. I turn on battery savings which includes; limiting apps in the background and the greyscale mode. After 6-8 hours of sleep, I usually lose 4% which imo is great.

When my note 3 was new and I was conditioning the battery, I had one cycle in which it just slept for the entire discharge time. Over 4 days, with a few peeks at the screen. If the CPU is idling at a low frequency, and the rest of the phone is asleep, almost no current is being drawn. Not just now. We had phones 10 years ago that could idle for 5 days or more. Make 1 call and you've used more charge than a whole day of idling.

3 and a half hours in 99%. Wow. What's your standby times?

Posted via my amazing Note 4 paired with my Moto360

WOW!!! really?

I feel like mine drops from 100 to 99% in 20 mins tops..and never stays on 99% for 3.5 hrs, even if I don't anything to the phone.

U have location services and all that enabled? like google now?

I've been very impressed with standby times. As long as the phone is able to go into a deep sleep (ex. minimal wake locks; Awake graph should match up very closely to screen on. See screenshot below), it barely sips any battery. Overall, I'm averaging around half a percent drop (or less) per hour on standby (no power saving mode). :D

My phone sat overnight for 8 hours last night from about 100% charge. It lost 15% charge.

Then, later today it sat (with zero use from me) for about 5 hours and lost 8% of it's charge.

This is in normal mode, not power saving mode. I'm curious now how power saving mode or ultra power saving mode might have helped. Guess I'll try that tonight.

See the graph.

He's probably in airplane mode...or has most everything turned off...

No way can you have a bunch of programs running with data/ WiFi and lose only 1% in 3.5 hours...

I was able to perfect my old GS3 to stay at 100% while I slept, but I haven't been so anal with the Note 4. I turned off all the apps I don't use (Mostly google stuff) and I lose about 1 to 2 percent over night while sleeping (8 hours). I never turn off location, bluetooth, or wifi.
