Maybe they’ve finally fixed the Doze mode they promised? Because, from what I can tell, my battery never improved after they released One UI 7. I’ve had this phone for two years, and the battery always dropped quickly - even when it was just sitting idle. But today, for the first time since I got the device, I unplugged it in the morning and still had 50% remaining by midnight.
I get the exact same as you with my s9fe and s9, 16h and 11h, equal screen off, 100% usage.
The s9fe's get great screen on battery time much better than s9's in my usage.
On my A9+ I turned my display down to 60hz had it since February battery life is excellent.
Happened to me too, the first day of usage. Weirdly, when i restarted, it dropped from 100 to 92. Then another time from 80 something to 60 something. It was probably some battery reading issue, cuz the overall runtime of 10hrs of screentime was not affected.
I actually like this change. It's telling me the actual battery charge. What I don't like is at least on my S 8 Ultra is it hits 85%, then starts discharging the battery. The battery gets as low as 81% before charging again. Personally I think this charge / discharge cycle is going to be more harmful long term than just charging to 100% and holding there. So I ended up turning it back off.
Mine gets around 4-5 hours of SOT. I do wish the SOT was better. The screen is dim so I have to up it to about 40% screen brightness which is a bummer because my previous tab s7+ was bright enough around 30%. I am satisfied with it but it doesn't meet expectations or the "ultra" name.
Yes, I have had this tablet for less than a year with moderate to medium use and I am already looking for a replacement. I am looking to do it myself and I am not that skilled but I will give it a go, but it isn't great that the battery is already needing a charge once a day even with "battery saver mode" applied.
I had 3 such tablets in a row. 3 times the worst battery. I'm very disappointed.
I recently got one, somehow it feels less. Idk if it’s because of the software but it seems to be draining even while being idle. Which is weird. People are quoting 7-9 hrs of sot and i feel like am not getting anywhere near that.
