Battery lasts between 12-16 hours, wifi calling seems to drain battery

Hey everyone!

Just got Sprint Galaxy Note 5, and love it so far.
Came from the iPhone 6 plus.

Anyways, is 12-16 hours of battery life normal?

Brightness is auto, screen timeout is 15 seconds.
Battery seems to not last as long when wifi calling is enabled.

Any tips?

re:

12-16 hours of battery life with normal usage is something many people dream of. 8 hours is normal for a good phone, some people can't get through a whole work day without recharging.

We would need to know more details about your situation. SOT, app usage, signal strength...

I have the Note 4 on Sprint and my battery actually performs really well, almost better than some of these new Note 5's. I would turn on "Connections Optimizer" and pull your brightest doen to 70% along with enabling power mode. Thats what I do and I get close to two ful days of battery life.
