"heavy usage" is subjective. More info is needed if you want other people's opinions. If you are on the phone nonstop for 8 hours, of course it won't last all day. Also, games eat up more battery life than just browsing forums or reading articles online.my battery life is awful. I can't get a day out of mine with heavy usage. it's ridiculous. I've tried wiping cache 3 times restarting my phone. device maintenance. nothing works
That's a real screenshot. This battery life blows.Under an hour SOT and sub 60% battery?
Hello,
"Problem" Found.
During the night (7-9 hours) lost between 15%-20%.
Tried all recomendations, clear cache, wipe cache, safe mode, factory reset, etc etc ... but the problem persist.
The problem: Network mode
Settings:
- 9 hours stand by with always display off, wifi off, bluetooth off, mobile data ON
If it's on LTE/3G/2G (auto connect) the drop is 15%-20%. Network changes between 4G and 4G+. It tried in my house and work place, the same happends. The network signal is very good.
If it's on 2G only the drop is 3%-4%.
Nothing i can do, i thing the Exynos is the problem here. During the night i just put on 2G.
Whether users want to admit it or not. This is a history with Samsung phones. Random battery drain and have no idea what causes it. Maybe Android pie will improve the quality of the battery.I've been getting great battery life on my phone until yesterday. Suddenly, when I turn it on after two hours with the screen off, but streaming Pandora over bluetooth, it's down to 64% from 95% Before, I could do this and have it only drop to 90%.

I didn't ask. And I'm sure me being the first person is a crock. Other users reported issues on these forms as I've seen.You're the first person I've ever heard mention "random battery drain in SAMSUNG phones". Of course my experience is that of only one person out of the millions who have bought their phones. I'm on my tenth SAMSUNG phone since 2011. Never happened with any of them.

My battery life has improved majorly. I explained it in the post below but now I'm getting what I should be. Thankfully.View attachment 296047
