And you turn no settings OFF and aren't just letting your screen sit there?
If I turned zero settings off on my S6 Edge I'd be lucky to get 2.5 hours SoT.
You don't have to believe it, but it is what it is. 4 to 5 hours sot. Settings the same as all my other Android devices. I've never let apps run rogue on any device.

I agree with "DSMpowerhousegroup" here, I have an S6 and would never get less than 4 hours SOT, unless I was using it heavily for calls (which is rare, haha). I've had my S6 since May 12th and I have not needed to charge it during the day even once. 16 hours a day with 4+ SOT, no problem. I never use nearly that much most days, I'm typically at around 30-40% by the end of my typical day, so it suits my needs. I don't turn everything off, nor do I toggle anything or use power-saving on it. I have a list of my settings and screenshots here (I did an S6 review shortly after getting it):

Having said that, the G4 looks like a great phone. I'm happy with my S6, but I'm sure I'd be happy if I got the G4 as well. All I'm doing here is trying to dispel all the negativity about the S6 battery. Based on most of these replies in this thread, my S6 battery is on par. The fast charging and wireless charging are great features, as well. Of course, if mine DID run out, I wouldn't be able to swap it out for another, so +1 to G4, right?
