Hey everyone! So, because of some strange and crippling signal issues with my Nexus 5 within the 14 day T-Mobile return window, I returned the phone and decided to purchase the Z1s after reading the phenomenal review Android Central. The Nexus 5 was a great device, and I do miss certain things about it (the simplicity of stock Android, the OIS, the Wireless Charging). One thing I didn't like, however, was the battery. I was getting about 10-11 hours of moderate usage, with 2 hours screen one time.
So, fast-forward to the Z1s. Today was my first day out and about with the phone. I charged it yesterday (to 96%, not a full charge), and used it since then. I have never done any power cycles, never charged the phone to full, and did not activate any power saving features (like Stamina Mode). And, quite simply put, the results are shockingly incredible. Now, there are probably better batteries out there, but this blows my recent phones way out of the water (Galaxy Nexus and Droid DNA on VZW, Nexus 5 on T-Mobile). I am so pleasantly surprised with the battery life, and if anyone wants an Android device that offers some longevity, this is definitely a great option. But, as they say, pictures speak louder than words, so check out these screenshots:
And this is on the first full day of use! I expect the battery to get even better after running it down and charging it back up a few times. And also, I haven't even begun to explore the Battery Saving Features that come loaded on the device. Anyone else this satisfied with their battery life?
