For the most part, I find my battery life decent. If I'm at 100% going to bed in 6 to 8 hours it's still above 95%.

When I can actually watch the battery number go down is when I'm on chrome. I jump on a few other apps, but chrome is the most used. In a half hour It went down over 15%!

I even have the screen on auto brightness.

Anybody else find this and I'm starting to wonder if I should try another browser maybe?
 
Side load the Samsung browser from apk mirror. It's by far my favorite mobile browser and one of the things i really miss when I'm not using my s7e. It's faster than chrome and you can use ad blockers with it from the play store.
 
Apart from the screen, you consume the most battery when you browse in the Internet.

I tried apk mirror and downloaded the apk and it shuts down when I open it.

I tried
 
Well I can't download the samsung one...I tried 2 days now and from what I hear it ONLY works with Samsung phones unless you root. The xbrowser will not allow me to see my comment as I type in fb no matter what I tried. So both those are a wash.

Not sure why you can't download the Samsung browser because it works fine on my unrooted TMobile v20. It might actually be that you're trying to download the regular version of it. The one you should be trying is the Samsung internet beta. Sorry i forgot to mention that in my first post

The beta works great for me as well
 
I just downloaded the beta Samsung Internet also, it works well on my Sprint phone.
 
Is there a way to get bookmarks to sync with Chrome using the Samsung beta Internet APK? I have the Samsung Internet extension on my desktop but don't think there's a way to sign into my Samsung account in the app.
