What kind of battery life are you guys getting? I'm getting hit with the cell standby issue, I thought that was a lollipop thing and would be fixed in marshmallow. Right now, it's taking a good 20%+. I guess I'll have to tweak the settings...

Can you attached a screen shot of the battery usage screen? Also, how many hours are you getting on battery, including screen on time?
 
Obviously I haven't had it go thru to many charge cycles yet but I'm getting about 8 hours screen on time. Cell standby is at 10% today.
 
2 hours screen on time today and sitting currently at 76% battery left.

Looks like it's fine now, I followed some suggestions from the S6 forum like turning off scanning and then deleting the cache partition. The 45 degree slope has now turned into a 5 degree slope :). Had 31% at dinner last night, now it's down to 19%.
 
Very first day I had mine I freaked out because I got worse battery performance than my S6 active. There might be some sort of burn in for a new battery... Because things have been improving.
On the first day the battery was at 5% at 9 hours and 53 minutes. 7 Days Later I was at 38% after 16 hours and 40 minutes on battery. Currently I am at nine and a half hours on battery and showing 49%

I am definitely getting better battery than my S6 Active. I posted my 2 day results in my thread.

I have all the settings the same. I used the apps permission to remove location permission from a lot of apps because you never know when they will use the gps etc.

I would say I am a moderate user and am very impressed by the S7 Active battery.
