Android Central Question

Hi,

I started using my brand new Samsung S8 since four days ago and the battery has been depleting rapidly. I lose around 2% per minute with just web browsing on the Samsung Internet app.

I'm on the latest software version: G950FXXU2CRED/G950FIXM2CREB/G950FXXU2CRE3

Troubleshooting steps I tried:

Disabled location services and AOD
Reset network settings
Wipe cache
Put apps to sleep
Clear Google play services cache
Removing SIM card and used 3G instead of 4G

Welcome to Android Central! Charge up to 100%, then let it drain to 20-30% with normal usage, without charging in between. Then show us:


1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).

You might have to install a 3rd party battery monitor, like GSam Battery Monitor, to get the Cell Signal Strength graph.
