Galaxy Note 3 Battery Review

[Haalcyon]

I haven't "measured" my battery life on my Note 3 but it seems quite adequate.

Nexuscillin. The cure for iOS.

Battery life for me was concerning the first day. I guess because I set Gmail to sync 999 days of emails, it was draining the battery like crazy. Gmail is now set to sync 7 days of emails. Second day I turned on wifi at night while sleeping, then turned it off when I went out, and back on when back at home. Usage was very light 2.5 hours of screen time, which included mostly of Chrome, Gmail, Facebook, and light gaming (just to test out the capabilities of the note). Battery life so far is best from any phone I have used (iPhone 3g, Incredible, S3). I do not get the best signal at home. The note is bouncing around from 3g to up to 3 bars of 4g. Anybody know where to get a OEM space battery and charge cable?

Batteries may be tough to come by as of now but the micro USB 3.0 chargers are relatively cheap on Amazon

Can someone post a picture that shows their Wi-Fi usage? Mine doesn't seem to shut off at night and I'm curious if everyone is having this issue. I selected never on during sleep.


Tried attaching from phone but having difficulties

My Google services are taking about 20% of battery. What can I do to fix that?

Probably a stupid question here, but here goes..... My battery status shows that google services is at 37% and Android OS is at 36%, what can I do to make these lower ? It drains my battery fairly quick. Thanks

Same here. Google services was close to 43% for me, even without location service on.

This may not be fair but I bought a Zero Lemon battery for my S3 and loved it. I guess I am really used to it because I think the battery life on the Note 3 just plain sucks. I unplugged it around 9:30 this morning and it was down to 26% by 6:30. Had to plug it in again. Can't wait for Zero Lemon to make a super battery for the Note 3.

Battery life has been phenomenal for me. Almost 23 hours since last charge with over 8 hours of screen time.

8 hours? And I think my over 6 hours was good

How do you do that?

 

[mhettrich]

Another question here. Any reason why android services would be taking up 43% of my battery power now?

If you go into App Ops you can get down to the nitty gritty and see what is running and toggle the processes on/off. I am surprised more people don't use this little tool embedded in 4.3. It has stopped a majority of my wakelocks and high usage with Android system and Google framework. Idk, just saying.

I used a G2 for 2 weeks and that battery to this point is way better. I have had my phone less than 24 hours so i cant judge yet, but I find it is not as good. I am hoping as I continue to have full charge cycles it will improve. I'm coming from a note 2 so I was floored at the G2 battery. Sorry for the comparison.
