Just comparing the mah then yes, it is a "bigger number". My response of "slight bump" is based on my personal experience between the two. Not sure that's up for debate.
Your real world comparison is different, I can't argue your results or interpretation.

I wouldn't say it's a slight bump in battery , it's a big bump. Note 8 3300mah vs 4000mah.

My s9+ had a 3500mah but cant get the battery life of my Note 9

Yes your definitely right, you could have few apps and be good with that battery size , while another who has 250 apps would struggle. So I agree on usuage difference can have a effect on battery.

I'm the odd-duck, no gaming, social media, video binging or selfies... LOL
Independent contractor and my Note is my office phone/computer. Billing, scheduling, emails, etc. and phone calls.

Well I've used it for less than 24 hours. Seems slightly better than my Note 8. Just slightly. I guess it would be a matter of waiting for Android to settle in?

As for that stereo speaker stuff. yeah besides not covering up the audio, I don't notice a big difference in speaker volume when playing media. Only thing I like is the size of screen. Feels wider and the modified s pen

so that thing is not a myth. Phones do get better at battery after like a week? Was it your experience?
Yes , as we now have what's called adaptive battery ,over a period of time it learns your usage pattern and adjust usually will take a week .

Yeah everytime i go to batteyr management, it says learning behavior

Yeah , and plus you have to train adaptive lighting , teach it in different lighting conditions by sliding the bar up or down how you like it and it will learn that also.

The wait continues. I guess [app name redacted by Mod] with microG drains a lot of battery with me always listening it to it in the background. But I am noticing only slightly better battery life than a Note 8 so far. I definitely think the battery is a bit better but not 6 to 7 SOT time people are talking about so far
