Battery draining hard

[HyperM3]

Not sure what's going on but I charged my phone to 100% at my desk at work by around 915. It's now 350 and I'm down to 39% with not much screen time. My CPU seems to be cranking it out though. Not sure what's going on.

Battery life is often pretty awful for the first week or so while the phone figures itself and your habits out.

Nor sure here either, but I'm sure it's related to the issues you're having!

I haven't measured the battery but not observing any major draining of the battery here.

Could be related to all the crashes you are having

It looks like both the mobile network and WiFi network have lousy coverage. If the device is constantly searching for a signal that cannot be found then the battery will drain.

It's my desk at work. My P7P didn't drain like this and got the same lousy coverage.

I got 5.5 hours screen on time with 50% battery left yesterday. So not sure what is happening to yours. Do you have apps running in the background? So far my battery life has been solid. Just charging it once a day and been using quite heavily setting it up and trying it out.
This is my current battery usage.

I really don't know what's going on there. Mine has been impressive considering it's still settling in.

Update: replacement phone arrived yesterday and just in time. First P8P was dying from 100% to 15% in less than 5 hours and even started freezing up completely needing full reboots. New phone working perfectly as expected.

Hopefully, this new replacement will continue working great.

Battery seems okay on my device. I start my day at around 5:45AM. Listen to YouTube on my commute and basically am on the phone sporadically. Just hit 50% at 2PM showing I've had 3 hours SoT...I don't know if I'll have enough for my hour and a half commute home AND hour long dog walk, but that's what charging my phone at work is for, right?

Mine is great. I get up at 3am. It's now 5pm and I still have 60% left. I'm very pleased

Hopefully they will push some bug fixes. The network has been dropping a lot.

For me this has been way more stable than either the 6 or the 7 pro

Have you tried to do a network reset on it?

I did, even with factory reset. I will keep my eyes on it.
