Battery issues

[steven2197]

I seem to be only getting about 4-5 hours of screen on time while I see others getting 9-10 hours, is something wrong with my battery? Also my brightness level is at 20% and I don't really don't anything but browse the Web. Also for some reason Netflix drains my battery heavily

4.3 and Netflix aren't playing nice at the moment. I might not use it until it gets updated..

If that doesn't help, try this: Google.com

Netflix was completely locking up my Nexus 4 so I uninstalled it and have had no problems.

I'm having the exact same issues as the OP. Screen time is is only 5 hours maybe a little more. Netflix is draining the crap outta my battery.

Different subject kinda, is Netflix streaming at a low quality for you?

Yes it looks all pixilated. I literally left my nexus 7 running a movie from Netflix for 10 minutes and it drained 5 percent of the battery. Definitely something wrong

Also my battery randomly skips percentages, like it goes from 31-25 randomly

That's basically the same drain I have. Along with it being pixilated.

Although I don't have the percentage skips I don't think.

Do you think it's a good idea to return our nexus 7's? Mine is perfect except for the battery drainage so I don't know

Even when android 4.3 and Netflix are playing together nicely, Netflix will still use a lot of battery. Streaming HD video isn't exactly easy on the battery. How long were you actually watching Netflix for?

Mine is also prefect other than that. But I think I'm going to wait it out since who knows what the next one might bring... And maybe it's just a software issue that just needs to be addressed.

So after six hours of sleep, both me and the tablet, it dropped five percent off the charger. I know people have said that their percentage stayed the same overnight. I might factory reset and install my apps one by one instead of having Google automatically do it.
