I have a brand-new phone. My usage is very low. Just a few calls during a day, and light texting. The battery goes from 100% to less than 40%. Doesn't look too good. Any idea?
Thanks

What's the time frame of that battery loss? 2 hours or two days? We need a frame of reference.I have a brand-new phone. My usage is very low. Just a few calls during a day, and light texting. The battery goes from 100% to less than 40%. Doesn't look too good. Any idea?

Sounds like really good battery life if you still have 40% at the end of the day. But you can check what applications are using the most battery life under battery usage.It's just one day.
Also, the number of bars is a fairly useless gauge for cell signal as it can/is manipulated by the OEM's. You need to look at signal strength. Go to settings > About Phone > SIM status > Signal strength...lower numbers are better. If it's above 104-105 then you might want to turn off 5G and try LTE and see if the numbers go down. High numbers for signal strength means your battery is being overworked. YMMV
Right now it shows Phone Idle - 37%.
I dont have too many, no app addiction. Most of them are business related and some for my audio system. I can definitely go through and remove anything I dont need. should I do that instead of resetting the phone?
