Question about the battery life

[awc8587]

Hey guys, picked up the S6 Edge+ 3 days ago and had a question about battery life. I charged it an hour before I slept and within 10-11 minutes after unplugging it my battery went down 1%. I charged it an hour before I slept last night as well and woke up with 97% battery. I didn't have wifi or my data on. I was wondering if it was a battery issue or if I should give it a few days for the battery to settle in? I read somewhere to give it a week or two for the battery to "adjust". Am I being paranoid or is it the battery and I should attempt to exchange it for another?

Sounds great to me. I don't think you have anything to be concerned about.

I picked mine up two days ago and I was I felt just like you. Right now I got 12 hours in and 15% battery left. Be patient.

Definitely give it a few days. My phone has had superb battery lie! Even while connected to a gear S and watching Netflix / YouTube throughout the day.

And for those that may ask. I was out last night. Got home roughly around 5 am, woke up at 9 am for work and have used the phone all through 11:58 today and I'm sitting at 23% battery

Trust me you're not alone.. I had the same issues in the beginning as well. I did a test with my phone, I went to sleep without charging my phone overnight ... it was at 30%, wifi on. I woke up 8 hrs later and my phone was dead. The next day I made sure my phone was fully charged before I went to bed, turned wifi off and lost 3%. I've owned this phone for two weeks now, and I haven't had to tweak my phone at all (wifi kept on at all times), I can live on 15% for hours. I dont know what it was but I guess you could say my battery life has greatly improved over the past two weeks
