SD 845.

The battery life in my S9+ is average at best. I'm averaging 3-4 hours SOT with less-than-ideal standby times.
How do you guys get such great battery life? I clear all my apps after I use them and I use the battery optimization in settings, but I just can't seem to figure this battery out. Is SD 845 power hungry? Do we have another SD 810 on our hands? People say the battery settles down after a while. I hope that's the case. I've had this device for 8 days now.
Yea if you are hunting/chasing record SOT then you have to use the phone for hours, it seems to be more efficient when its constantly in use, say with apps which don't use that much batt like a web browser, utube or an ebook app. Otherwise 3-4hrs SOT with anything over 24hrs uptime is fairly average/decent i would say. But as mentioned it does depend on your usage, radio signal, screen brightness, settings and apps.
The problem with Samsung is that stand by is poor. I take my phone out of wireless charger at 7 am and at around 7 to 9 PM, it's down to 15% with around 3 hours SOT. I have the always on display turned on
Mine isn't and uses < 1% per hour when its idle, everything left on, syncing etc, i don't use AOD, although it doesn't use much batt.
I checked my screenshots and stand by takes an average of around 5% and Always on somewhere between aroun 7 to 8%
I think always on has a significant effect on battery based on some reviews I saw
AOD is great and I'd actually use it if the battery capacity was 4,000mAh minimum. But since manufacturers put these dainty little batteries in phones so they can be as thin as possible, I want to get the most battery life possible. So I turn off the AOD. I'd love to use it, but not when it sacrifices precious battery life.
How does the battery life on the S9 and S9+ compare to that on the S6 and Note 5? I'm currently using a Note 5 and it's okay. Needs about 2 full charges to get through the day. I had an S6 but it was absolutely abysmal. It literally needed 4 full charges each day. Thanks
ok, I give up... how the heck do I post a gallery image (screenshot) of my battery life? the only options I'm seeing are emojis, GIF, STICKERS... where's the paper clip to add image? I'm on the app on my S9+ not a computer

On the app you can reply with quote to any post then delete the quoted post. There is an attachment button(paper clip) that will allow you to attach screenshots/pics.
If it's not taking you to your gallery idk what's up then...
That's really good if you turn off AOD you would have even better battery lifeThank you so much! That was driving me nuts! Even a Google search couldn't help me... applause to you sir!
