Wow, that's some pretty awesome stuff! Thanks for sharing @krazyatom 
Some people only dream of having battery life like that haha.
Does seem a little hard to believe since there is still 39% left but if this is a honest untouched image, I give the OnePlus 5 and massive thumbs up.

Re: Fantastic battery life
What is your secret? My battery life was average at best. I would lose 2-3% per hour overnight. Since the last update on Sunday it has been better
Just got another software update now let's see how it goes.

Re: Fantastic battery life
Well I do have low brightness. I usually set my brightness to 25% but OP5 was bright enough for me at 15%. Also, I did turn off the scanning always available off. Not sure it helped lol. I really don't watch videos or play games so that may be the reason why. My screen inactivity is set to 5 mins.

Re: Fantastic battery life
Hey Krazy, I see you over at Crackberry and the KeyOne battery life is insane, how does the OP 5 compare?

Re: Fantastic battery life
I probably need more time to compare vs keyone but OnePlus battery life is very good. I doubt it will be better than Snapdragon 625 but so far it's fairly close for my usage. I mostly text, reading forum app, so it will really vary by the users. I think I can go 9hrs SOT with OnePlus 5. My S7 gives me like 5-6 hours SOT. Keyone probably gave me like 10 SOT. I don't have keyone anymore though.

Re: Fantastic battery life
What is battery life like when idle/on standby?
My S8 will drain at a steady 2% per hour even when sat on my desk doing nothing, whereas my iPhone 7+ would sit for ages on 100% if I left it, likewise the LG G6 is also pretty good in this regard.
How is the OP5? Does the vanilla android bear some fruit in this area?

Re: Fantastic battery life
Can you take a screen shot of your usage? I didn't use my phone a lot today so I don't have any info yet.

I am finding mine just ok tbh, not done any scientific tests but anecdotally I'd say maybe slightly better than my package disabler pro'd S8 but not significantly so, I have always used the AOD on the S8 too.
The LG G6 remains the strongest android phone for battery, at least in my experience.

Nice. What's your screen on time? I don't use Wifi at work. Can you check your power consumption for wifi?

Best screen on time I've ever had on any device, and my WiFi has been on constantly and is responsible for 4% of my battery usage, or a mere 118 mAh of computed use.
Hope it's useful!

Nice. OP5 battery is just superb IMO. I really like 1080p for battery saving.
