How is everyone's battery life so far? I know its only been 24 hours, but just seeing how the Active is holding up so far.
People won't see an average battery life curve for about a week of use.
I'm already getting two days and just got it Friday. With the 835 and 4000mah this thing will go forever.
Happy to report that after almost a full week of "standard" use for me, I lose about 4-5% per hour. that's with a mix of screen on/text, a little bit of games and a lot of listening to music. No WiFi and I work in a minimal signal building (lead box style).
Each day I go to bed with 30-40% left. Beats my VZW Note 5 which needed a bump charge by 2PM.

I'm running about 2-3% an hour here, I do have some apps disabled with package disabler too. I use AOD and Bixby as well. Overnight without use it burns .8% an hour and my SOT is probably about 7 hours, I could easily get two days out of this device with decent usage.
Are you using it with Always On Display? 4% to 5% per hour is kind of a lot. I'd be curious to hear if there would be additional battery savings if AoD were to be turned off.
Samsung themesHow is it that you have a dark mode type screen shot.
My wife's first full day with her active. 30% battery used and 5:37 hours of SOT. Amazing. She's been using it for candy crush and she syncs 3 imap accounts and one office365 account with mail, contacts, and calendar.
I thought my s8+ was awesome with battery but her active is even better.
