Note 4 How's your battery life?

[Closingracer]

There is a lot of mobile data usage in my second set of screen shots - check it again. That second set is day one, out of the box, setting it up as a new phone, still managed over 3 hours screen time.

WiFi or not, none of the screens any of you are posting match the amazing endurance claimed by several review outlets and it is highly concerning. One of the reasons to buy a big phone is battery life, at least it was on the Note 2 and Note 3 I used to have.

Like I said, I'm still going to get it, but if the battery ends up being crap I'm returning it. I don't buy big phones to make them even bigger with extended batteries. Actually, to be completely honest, I'm thinking of waiting to see reviews of the now announced Nexus 6 before I make any decisions. Specs that match the Note 4 across the board, bigger screen, and no Samsung bloat for less money in a body only 5mm taller. We also now know that the Nexus 6 does not have the same camera as the Moto X 2014 so that is one worry to cross off. I'm an impatient dude and supply issues tend to be a thing with Nexus phones, though, so this is a big maybe.

What are you talking about? The battery life is great and even in reviews back it up.

Well it's hard for me to gauge it since I've only had it a few days. Also we haven't received the update which is supposed to fix battery usage as well.. So that could make a difference.

I'm waiting for the battery update to fully judge.. Right now I'm not complaining. This thing also charges really fast.. So that helps.

What apps do you use often like Facebook or Twitter and text. Then see how battery life is. I'd like to know. I have the note 3 and have the note 4 for vzw on pre order.

If you are coming from the note 2 you are headed for a disappointment in terms of battery life.. I never had to worry about that phone draining on me within 24hrs..
I loved that phone, man would never have let go of that phone.. But dropped it in the swimming pool.. Note 4 is awesome and stuff but I felt that it was not much different except the screen and a bit of speed..

Mine is excellent, no CPU or background data restrictions. Just auto brightness

My is pretty bad. I bought it used so that might be the problem. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I do notice that when I have wifi on it will keep searching for a network even when its connected. I do that always allow scanning off.
