What do you think about my battery life?

[lukazi]

Hey guys,

I just bought my s6 and I'm totally impressed. Apart from battery life! But hey it's weekend and I'm absolutely hammering my phone, so i can't expect anything better, right?

I'll put some screen shots soon, but basically yesterday my battery lasted around 9.5 hours with 5.1 hrs SoT. Is that acceptable? Most of the time i used my phone for browsing, Facebook, around 1hr talking to friends on viber and a bit of music.

5 hours screen on time is good imo

Totally acceptable, that's good longevity for the S6 when it comes to SoT. Judicious use of screen brightness can help stretch it as well. I only drop to 4 hours or less (with similar use to your description) if I'm playing system intensive games (Hearthstone and the like).

when using with the internet, phone's battery is run out of quickly. that's acceptable

It's ok for 5.1 hrs

from what I know and have seen, 5 hours SOT is great!

I have never seen more than 3 hrs SOT. Not sure how people get over 3. I think I could get more if I went in to airplane mode and watched a downloaded movie but that's it.

I average 5-6 hours usage with 2.5-3 hrs SOT. If I don't touch my phone for 6 hours I can get 12 hrs usage with 2 or 3 after I pick it up for the first time.

So if you are getting 5 with normal usage then you are lucky
