Good Battery Life

[MissouriFarmer]

I need maximum possible battery life since I don't like to be tethered to a charger or worried about my phones battery all day.
It's supposed to be a convenience not something I need to babysit.
I am more than a moderate user.

I remembered that amoled screens only use power for pixels that are not black.
I found a wallpaper that is all black (app store) and set it up.
I also experimented with phones brightness setting. I Set it at. about 50 percent. I know (from this forum, thanks) that the 'Auto' setting can be adjusted but I haven't tried that yet.
Anyway, after a weeks testing, I am currently on battery for 22. 5 hours with 48 percent remaining.
IMHO that seems more than adequate.
What say you?

An expected 2 full days with one battery charge out of a 5.7" powerhouse? Not too shabby AT ALL... hehe I just bought mine, let's hope it lasts that long

I don't have any major features turned off, screen is on auto and I was on over 8 hours of conference calls the other day. I also had almost 3 hours of screen time. Off charge at 6 am and on at 11:30 PM with 30% remaining. I had a 5200 maH battery on my GS4 because I always worried about battery. I guess I don't have to worry anymore.
