Looking at the battery use section in settings, I noticed that there are entries for Android System and Android OS. Is this reading the same thing twice? Is this normal?

Good question. I'm not 100% sure, but the OS appears to most influence the CPU. I think the other is active when using features.

Android OS is that backbone / the middleware between the hardware and the interface you see. Android system includes a variety of packages or simply saying default apps.
Hence, these two are defined separately
