Re: S7 edge Batter life

You guys that are having problems on your first few nights. I would just let the phone do it's thing and on like the 3rd day turn it off then back on and then see if it straightens out.

This was right when I charged it. 14 hrs since last charge, medium usage, in a concrete building, on wifi, no Bluetooth. I still had 30% to go

Didn't post the other picture

Re: S7 edge Batter life

I've only been watching for the last two days, but I'm very pleased.

On Friday, I had 6.5 hours of screen in time, but also had 4.5 hours of phone calls. I have gps/location turned in full time. The phone was on and off the charger from 7am to 1 am and I had about 5% left.

On Saturday, I got 7 hours of screen in time, also gps full time, but had a 1.5 hour run when I was active gps, streaming pandora through Bluetooth. Phone only lasted from 8 am to 9 pm but it's time off use that matters, not standby time.

Does it get as much as the iPhone 6s Plus battery life? I here it doesn't. That got me through a whole day of heavy usage. I understand the edge has better screen etc to power but the battery is 3600 compared to the plus's 2750. So I'm surprised if it doesn't last as long?

It doesn't unfortunately. Standby time on the iPhone 6s+ is unmatched. I don't think I can keep dealing with this high battery drain. And my phone runs out all of the time like it's not sleeping. II'm currently at 56% with one hour of screen on time and my battery is at 92F. Unacceptable.

As much as I gripe about unable to customize like I can on Android it maybe be worth it to stay. Only on day 3 though. 10 more days of testing.

Something is wrong with your device, I would factory reset, you have something going on, either doze I left a phone on the table for 8 hours and it lost 2% granted it did not have a sim in it but it was on WiFi.

Battery life for both S7 & Edge have been stellar so far.

Re: S7 edge Batter life

So far, I am very impressed with the battery life of my S7 Edge. It definitely goes head to head with the 6s plus I had. I beats the 6s. This is by far the best Android I have owned.
 
Re: S7 edge Batter life

I've already reset it. This will be my third time resetting if u go through with it again. I may exchange it if tomorrow doesn't get any better.
 
Re: S7 edge Batter life

Battery life is really great for me. Much better than what I was getting with my Note 5.

Re: S7 edge Batter life

Not much talk time today, just web surfing and finishing getting it all set up. Wi fi and 4g. I'm impressed.

Re: S7 edge Batter life

Ok I am not 100% what screen on time is I am guessing how long your using your actual phone with the screen on? Cause I got 5 hours and something the other day. Last night mine only said 2 hours and something but I was busy at work and didn't use phone much at all but I made it for like 12 hours on the battery which to me is good. So is that ok? I worked overtime and left work at 2am with like 32% left and on my old phone (HTC) I would of had to of plugged it up once probably twice. I just wasn't on my phone a lot busy at work. But I am happy with how long the battery lasted. My phone stayed in my pocket alot I was busy at work. I just sent a several text and surfed FB on dinner break. I still haven't fully set up my phone and still need to set up syncing. But I see people get 1 day or more but to me 12 hours getting through a whole day at work is good for me. I need to test it next time I am off all day and out all day outside not at work in the basement of a hospital with no signal. Luckily their is guest WiFi. LOL! Is it best to keep always on wifi when sleeping? And the smart Smart network Switch I turned that on and my WiFi on during sleep is on always. I have unlimited data too.

I seem to be getting much higher cell standy (phone radio on GSAM) than other people here. Does anyone know what the main culprits are for this?
