The "screen on" page lists how long the screen was on. 15 hours of screen on time supposedly only used 20% of the battery. I'm not stupid, and yes, I'm claiming he faked it.

Lots of people say this. It's not ugly at all to me, and for the insane battery life I'm getting, you can keep your super thin sexy GS6. Different strokes for different folks.

I agree completely! I don't think it is ugly at all. I would just would like to add that being waterproof in addition to great battery life more than makes up for the slightly larger size!

If you look at it I used 80 percent of the battery and no is not faked

Is 20 percent left, which is 80 percent used, it shows on my info bar how would I fake a screen shot I don't think I'm hudini

Kennyb123, your math is wrong- if the phone was on for 15 hours, and screen was about 20% of that, that means about 3 hours of screen on time. User ends with about 20% battery left. This is all in line with the figures we see (maybe a little under for screen time). He or she posts a screen shot, would they really go to the trouble of faking the graphic? AoN

If you add all the stats that shows on the stock battery app it totals 65 plus the 20 that's left but people use gsam cause it shows all the usage I used YouTube it didn't show that I used twitter it doesn't show that and Google news stand don't know why but hey whoever don't believe me don't have to I know is true

Oh yeah don't mean to keep posting but the reason I get great screen on time to is because I use power saving and leave the screen brightness on like 10 percent and when outside only 25 to 35 percent

Added it to cart at the no contract price of $694. Clicked check out & then you have to go through the steps of answering whether you are new or current customer etc. But the price did drop down to the $428 at that point. Not sure if it is a glitch or what not, but the order has been accepted. Think my total was $455 with tax. Not sure if they will charge activation fee as they do not with the Next program, but do with the on contract price. Have not purchased a phone without a contract previously.

I just tried this and the price never went lower than $694.99. I went through the order process up to the point where it asked me for my credit card.

They probably noticed something funny when there was a spike in the number of orders.

Returned my G4 in for this, and I love it. I got 7hr and 10mins of screen on time with heavy usage (streaming twitch, texting, snapchat, facebook, youtube) with a 14 hour charge cycle with no power saving options on. I am very impressed with the battery on this, i'm getting better battery performance than my DROID Turbo I had before the G4.

I almost got a full 6 days on a single charge. Decided to finally use it hard and drain what is left. It took 1 hour and 45 minutes to charge the battery from 0-100% using the supplied quick charger with the phone turned off.

If you turn the phone off it charges even quicker. I usually put it to charge when it beeps at %15 battery. I turn it off and in 45 min it's %100

My phone was turned off. From 0-100% it took 1 hour and 45 minutes with the supplied quick charger. Maybe because my quick charger is plugged into a UPS and not directly into a wall outlet.

 

[jackal2001]

Confirmed by a youtube review from one of the gadget reviews, takes 1 hr 45 min to charge from 0 with the phone off.

heres my battery with heavy usage.... i took a few UHD videos underwater, heavy snapchat usage, lots of internet browsing, played some games throughout the day.... and prob spent around 30 minutes or so on the phone talking ....i also turned the phone on or off 3 or so times which usually takes the battery down a few points

Sorta random, but is anyone else having problems with snapchat on theirs? Specifically with stories with videos not playing or skipping?

I am too...it's really annoying

I am having the same issues viewing stories... Videos chop up into screen shots quite often, though they occasionally work... it is extremely buggy and annoying to view stories on the S6 active (I am sure they will put out a fix soon)
