note 3 noob battery life

[Elgin Gloria]

Hello guys! I just got my note 3 like a week ago. I was a apple user for almost 4 years I got bored with apple and decided to try android. Right now I have no idea with android. Just wanna know your expert opinions about my battery life. Is this good or bad?...I upload some pics. Thanks in advance!

I'd say that was pretty good. I can get a few other users to give opinions.

Looks good to me. 6 hours SOT is good. I normally get about 4 hours. But I also use my phone heavily.

Thank you guys for the reply...now im worried free...hehehe...but my brightness is always at like I think 25% but sometimes 0%...because when its on 100%...it drains fast

I think that's pretty awesome. I wish my s3 would get battery life like that.

The screen is probably the largest user of the battery. If you run the screen at 100% all the time you won't get much battery life.

(BTW. if you want the battery to last as long as possible [between replacements], don't let it get much below 40% before you recharge it.)

Thanks for replying to my post...but sometimes the screen is only 9% then android system is 24% and the os is 20%...

I keep my note 3 or any device screen brightness up around 65% and my note 3 gets around 4-6 hours of screen time depending on usage

My screen is normally at bout 15% indoors. In a well-lighted room, it runs to 25-30%. To get it up to 60% I have to shine a desk lamp right on the phone. (I'm using Velis Auto Brightness with the default settings.) I'm constantly turning the screen on and running things to see what someone is referring to when I answer questions on forums. (I'm retired, so that's what occupies a lot of my day) and I usually get at least a whole 24 hours between charges [and I usually charge before I drop below 40% charge].) Screen time may be high, but 15% brightness doesn't kill as much battery charge. (When I'm out in the sunlight, running the screen at 100%, the battery drops pretty fast.)

Seems like great batter life to me looks like your in a pretty good service area most of the time which probably helps you a lot. I can't get more than 4 hours screen on time with this phone and 15 hours between charges but my reception is ok at best and ik that Is a huge battery drain on this phone.
