I recently bought a new phone, the Huawei P8 and I get terrible battery life specially on standby. Android System is what's eating up my juice and is often at 62% or so which I find very strange. Most Android smartphones I've used had Android System somewhere between 6% to 10% max. When I go to sleep with a 100% fully charged battery, I wake up with 65% or 70% left. That's with Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, mobile data and auto sync all turned off. I tried using the "ultra" power saving mode but to no avail. I even tried disabling some apps including most of Google's services, performing a factory reset and clearing the cache but none of that helped. I sent it back to the warranty and they "reinstalled" the software or so they say but Android System is still using up more than 50% (it keeps changing but it's always above 50% or 60% and after a long time of standby during my sleep I then wake up only to find it hit 86%. Android System at 86%!!). The problem hasn't been fixed and I'm really frustrated.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
