Everybody got drain!! lol

Well, just as another point of reference here is a screenshot a couple hours after I took mine off the charge. I don't think there's any way the wifi should be that high on the batter drain.

Are you connected to a 2.4ghz or a 5?

Man. That's not right at all. Considering I'm getting twice the total time with about 5-1/2 hours screen time on average as you.

 

[showstopper003]

Thats a really good question people should be thinking about. I'm connected at 2.4Ghz at all times and no battery drain.

Ah, I'm not exactly sure I'm afraid. Is there an easy way to check? I'm using a router provided by Verizon Fios.

Yeah that doesn't look all that right. I'm hoping it's because I received it today and I've been spending a whole lot of time on it setting stuff up and just generally playing around with it. Gotta give it a few days to normalize. I do have bluetooth on all the time but that's about it. Other than that it's auto brightness.

I don't have the phone yet...look in your WiFi networks

Not sure if I'm seeing what I'm supposed to. Signal strength is Very Strong 130Mbps.

Damn, when I click on my connection it shows me all of that info except for frequency.

 

[edgefever]

Probably not the problem anyway

Well if it was downloading updates and your apps and stuff it could very well eat it up pretty fast. Definitely need a few days then I'd say.

I got my S6 at 2:30 today and the Cell Standby is holding at 5 percent (knock on wood).

 

[bdmridgeback]

After getting my phone yesterday, took it off charger at 7:30am, at 10:30pm at 25% batt left. That is right in line with my S5

 

[pounder001]

AT&T, only 8hrs in, mostly on WiFi and cell stand by is at 2%, BT and WiFi always on

 

[EMGSM]

Mine was at 79 percent out of the box at 2:30. at 8:36, it is at 17 percent.

Im not certain about my numbers the last few days but I have a feeling it hasnt been too good ? I just unplugged at 730am and Ill monitor throughout the day !?

Normally Im sitting at my office at work or home office so it's always plugged in so I dont actually see the " drain " !? I wont plug in until this afternoon so we'll see how far down this goes with my normal use !?!?

 

[EMGSM]

DAY 1: 79 percent out of the box at 2:30. Completely shut down at 10:57. Cell standby did go up from 5 percent to 20 percent. I'll see how it does after a full charge, and a whole day of usage.

Remember to turn wifi off for accurate results

DAY 2 ATT: have a wireless charger on my desk at my office, left the off just now with 100%. Got to my house about 15 miles away with the phone spitting Bluetooth music to my car. Battery is currently at 91% in that 25 minute time period. Edit: 91% since typing this post.
