Does 3000mAh Battery Is Enough ? - OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi everyOne!
We all know That the previous version ie., oneplus two has 3300mAh ,
But Oneplus 3 has only 3000mAh battery . Is It Enough ??
Does The battery Life Will be Good ?

I'm sure it's enough, like the battery size on the Nexus 5X.... but it's not great.

The cpu, gpu and the amoled screen use so much less power than the previous one that i thing if you compare the smaller battery had a longer standby/using time than the op2

It's enough battery..6 SOT

Got the phone .
Getting sot around 3.5hrs only

The battery needs a couple of charges to level out and reach its peak mate

Am I the only one impressed with the 53 minutes charge from 2% to 98% that I saw on youtube ?
Who needs a bigger battery if you can get 3 more hours SOT in just 30 mins or 4-5 hours SOT in under 1 hour charge ?

I'm also wondering how the battery performs in a few cycles.

Only very few people would need more, given that VOOC/Dash Charge also works perfect when you charge the phone while using it.
The only 'issue' is that you need Oneplus own chargers/carchargers + Oneplus own cables for every spot where you charge. I hope they release a powerbank that supports Dash Charging in the (near) future.

Yes, it's enough with SD820

I have got an A3000 (Chinese version. I'm Chinese).
I use the browser and text chat with friends for more than 6hrs before use up the battery.
So I would say it's enough for daily use.

Would be interesting which apps you are using. Is gaming involved?

How did you setup screen brightness?

I'm not 100% happy with battery life... ~4 hours SOT for me.. (average usage). I hope Oppo/OP will release a DASH/USB-C PowerBank, because we'll need it.

No gaming or phone calls here on day 2 of use (pretty light browsing, social, wifi 90%) and I got < 24 hours and 3 hours of SOT on a full charge. Not very happy with that, hoping it will get better

Hi guys,
I remember Oneplus blacklisted larger battery for the 3, because people were using the battery from the 3T model to upgrade the battery. With that said can you comment how such old companies as Polarcell are selling 3200 and 3500 mAh replacement batteries for our phone? Is that a fake marketing? If not, would they work as direct replacement or I have to flash customer kernel and rom on my phone to override Oneplus' restriction (if that is at all possible, cause it most likely is coded in the firmware).
Can someone shed more light please?
Thank you!

Normal LG 2X battery life

Have been used LG 2X since the first launch date and it was fine until when the phone getting hot and battery life draining fast quickly. It was about only 4-6 hrs from full charge. I have been checked to see what was running but nothing weird.
Normally how long does the battery run after says 3 years of using it?
Don't know. I can only tell that after changing mine .75 years ago, suddenly battery life improved with a factor 3; now I have +-24 hours.
So, it might be time to buy a new battery - I definitely recommend LG stock battery (low price compared to changing phone).
I've also 3 years old optimus 2x and battery was horrible. It was on 10% after some 6h of usage so I bought from ebay 3 different batteries.
One was from Hong Kong, 3500 mAh and battery dried to 10% in about 2 days. I could finally use my phone without worries but that battery is fat and my phone looked really ugly. Afther that I've bought Onyx battery with 1400 mAh. Battery is real ****. After 4-5h of usage it was completely out and afther that I've found on ebay battery from china with 2450 mAh (I recommend you that one). I can use my phone for abut 8h, also I've found some app on google play that actually improved my battery life so I can use that battery with 2450 mAh one full day without worries. Here is the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gejos.android.batterysaver I really recommend you this app. First one that really worked for me.
If you've any questions P.M. me. Good luck
Try flashing a lite rom, I suggest tonyp's PA ROM, or install greenify

I have had my last phone for nearly 3 years and the battery life is horrible. Why not try a new battery?
Greenify is you friend.
Mates, when I was using cm10, 11, my battery lasted for about 12 hours, but when I downgraded to gb, the battery lasts for more than 2 days, so the os gives many thoughts to consideration.

3500 mah battery 10€ and gives you alot of juice. but the stand by of this phone is bad.. i can beter use it somethings the let is sleep. no wake locks. just bad... my baseband is good normaly. bref i dont mind my phone is fat. it gives me battery i want. so yeah
I've used my O2X for almost 3 years now and original stock battery still gives me 16-24h battery life with normal everyday usage. Well, i have two stock batteries and swap them time by time but still. No fancy battery saving apps, but i turn wi-fi/data off manually quite often.
Heavy usage can hold max 4 hours on one battery (screen on all the time, GPS on, multitasking)
Normal withstand 24 hours.

Worried about Mi 5 battery life

I ordered this device yesterday but I worried about battery life, in reviews spoken the battery life was bad.
I dont have the device yet.
In the future the battery life was improvement on system updates?

I have to say I find the battery life to be outstanding if you are using the chinese rom. If using the global one it is really poor. There is another thread on here about battery life. Have a look at that
How much SOT on chinese rom?

In my opinion the chiense rom is much better although there are obviously some chinese apps there too
I'm reviewing the phone at the moment, my results on GeekBench 06:30:30 for runtime and a score of 3905 with the screen on maximum brightness. I've used the phone with dual-SIM and single-SIM and not struggled with it at all. MIUI 6.3.31 and it's the 64/3GB model. Hope that's of some help!
Battery life is usually good. SOT around 5 hrs for me and I usually play games.
However stand by is really odd one both the roms. Sometimes overnight it consumes 1%-3% sometime s 20%-25%, I still can't figure out why.
25% in night?? why?

Never seen that with mine. While at work during the day I only use it for the odd call and some texts along with a small amount of browsing. With the chinese rom I would have 85% charge left when I get home but with the global rom doing the same I would have about 65% left so clearly it wasnt going to sleep properly. Maybe thats what you are seeing

No, I haven't updated my signature from so long.
I have used nexus 5, galaxy s6(lost), lg g4 and oneplus 2 after Lg g2. For me galaxy s6 was the best device I have ever used.
Mi5 has a mediocre camera nothing exceptional about it xiaomi is creating hype about 4-axis and things however in reality it can't capture full hd video smoothly.
For sure Mi5 has better sound and battery and chipset but software wise I think any other phone out is better than this MIUI crap.
and believe me MIUI can never get fixed until and unless they changed their framework completely. As of now MIUI 7 is based on MM but it doesn't have a single feature of MM so what is the use of such OS. MIUI is for users who just want to keep applying themes and do nothing else.
I am never going to buy xiaomi again.
Hoping I get my hands on an AOSP or CM ROM soon or else I have to sell this ****.

I really don't know what is wrong but I experience the same on both the ROM's, yesterday I got 7.2.12 and after that it consumed only 3 % overnight even with alarm on.
Also, I have one more strange bug whenever I start playing coc my wifi gets disconnected and it gets disconnected randomly too, are you facing any such thing like this.
You have the wakelock qpnp_fg_memaccess that is draining battery. Check with wackelock detector..
Same happened to me one night from 40% to 6% in 6 hours..
This happened because Qualcomm introduced a new feature called Fuel Gauge that is managing the battery and is not working really like it should..
Strange.. I used my phone heavily(not gaming of course) and hardly to hit 70% in 8 hours during day time.

So what does one do about it? its my first day on mi5, i cant say that battery is bad.. its almost same as on a Sony Z5P.
My Mi5 is doing great on the battery... I use it at work i use it at home... during the night it drain around 5% max. Normally i can say it can last 1,5 days...

MI5 is one of the crazy device ever! Once you receive the phone you will be keep busy with experiment. Some people will tell battery life is outstanding and some like me will say battery life is poor.
My impression about MI5 is, usually after buying a phone we try to use it hassle free. But MI5 will create lots of confusion and make you trend to experiment lots of things until you get the perfection.
Currently the global ROM is most worst ever ROM and it will make you frustrated. Some people will tell China ROM is better but eventually until unless you are Chinese, you will never like chinese things!
Just now flashed CM13 and looks impressive!
The way you charge helps with endurance as well
Try getting into the habit of not letting your battery level drop below 15%. Charge it from there to 100%. Was a big item on xda some months ago about expanding the quality of a modern smartphones battery.

How good is the battery life for you guys?

I know it's a large battery that's why I'm asking this question. My p9 plus drops from 100-95 relatively quickly just by using whatsapp and instagram. like less than an hour. Is that normal or is it just me?
Sorry but that is bad?
Which mobile are you coming from???

errr..? the huawei p9 plus? Cause some people say they could get more than a day out of this phone with normal usage but I can't seem to do that haha. I could if I keep the screen off like most of the time but definitely not normal usage.
A lot depends on the phone signal, if you move into areas where the signal is poor the phone is constantly looking to better that signal... Using more power. 5% an hour is pretty good by my reconning.. Will give you around 20 hours to zero.
I am coming from samsung A8. Comparing A8 the p9 plus is better in battery back up for me.
Mine is good too. Comparing with Xperia Z1 Compact is much much better. I have 5 to 6 hours of SOT and above average usage. With normal usage usualy I have close to 7 hours and 3 to 5% juice in it.
my battery life is amazing, best I've ever had on a phone, I would install wakelock detector and see whats eating your battery, I recently got over a 100 hrs between charges which is amazing, SOT was 7 hours 26 min, I do have greenify installed though which helps.
2 days and 1 hour here with 22℅ left and 5 hours SOT
This thing is just amazing
For me battery is perfect, mostly 2 days between charge and 6 hours SOT, no root pure stock for now all with normal usage.
Best battery I've ever had on any phone, even the ones with 4000mAh battery can't match this. This thing just rocks! After 3 full charging cycles I am stable on 2 days between charging with most of the time on wi-fi or 4g/3g and gps on when needed and my SOT is 8hrs up. Righ now I have 11%batt remaining and 8hrs 01min SOT.

What do you mean full charge cycle? And 2 days with 6 hours screen on time meaning your battery can last 2 days inclusive of the 6 hours SOT? cause for mine, I plugged it out at 9am and now it's already at 49%. Screen on time probably about 3-4 hours so far.
That is insane amount of screen on time. If this for was 2k screen I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. I have to wait for the P10 Plus

i think he means that he load the P9 Plus 3 time from 0 to 100%
Dropping from 100% to 95% after using Whatspp and Instagram for an hour is normal. My P9 Plus can last me more than 1 day with noramal browsing, emails, SMS and Whatsapp. It is way better than my LG V10.
First battery cycle and second cycle
WhatsApp all day
1 hour instagram
1 hour eyeem
2 hours lightning browser
Some photos
Easy 6+ hours SOT
The battery is not as good as I expected. I unplugged it at 6.45am and my usage are as follows:
WhatsApp
Facebook
Clash of Clans
Instagram
WeChat
and a little bit of browsing
My battery was 11% when I got home at 7pm. SOT was around 3 hours. Is this normal? I have to charge my phone everyday unlike what others has said.
everyone have different apps installed and we all use our device differently. Waste of time to compare each others battery life.
I have a lot of **** running in the background and i just charge when i need. Nothing i worry about, always a arm length from an electrical outlet. (home, work, school, train etc.)

Unfortunately all the apps u r running are power-intensive. I suppose if u keep running those apps from 6.45am until 7pm (which is more than 12 hours) and still left some juice on it, this should consider very good battery life already.
The P10 should be a serious contender when it comes out. I am torn between Samsung S8, Sony Zeus and the P10 Plus. I'm really interested to see what the P10 plus and Sony Zeus have to offer.
I just got phone two days now ,At second charge,very satisfied

Is there a lifecycle problem with the OP3 battery?

Hi,
there is a german website -> http://www.chinamobilemag.de/news/oneplus-3-akku-problem.html
(Translator -> https://translate.google.com/transl...neplus-3-akku-problem.html&edit-text=&act=url )
They talk about that the capacity are going down. After 120 charging cycles the lost 20% capacity. The messurement was taken by a usb tool.
I did not have things like this. Can you follow them or do they make some failures? The articel sound a little anoying
The one thing that pops out immediately in my mind after reading the article is that we don't know if the OP3 battery has linear deterioration.
Only time and more measurements will tell if 200-240 charging cycles = 40% loss in capacity or not.
But i guess after 100 Load-Cycles we sould not have 20% power less
This could be true bc any type of fast charging has bad effects on battery. That's why I don't use dash charger.

Fast charging is not problem. The heat is Dash doesn't have this heat.
Anyways I don't believe in this thing. My battery is still fine so.
Does an one know if there is an app to check the capacity of the battery?

That is not necessarily true. Battery deteriorates due to fast charging only if the phone/battery gets heated during charging and since VOOC charging dissipates heat in the charger only, theoretically, battery itself shouldn't deteriorate much. Besides, number of charge cycles does have effect on battery health but capacity dropping by 20% in just 100 cycles is bit much.
several users commented there already, many of them saying that the measured it in the same way and state a loss of about 500mah ... :/ this is worrying
Such a trash....
Got my device right after release, dash charged every time i need 2 charge...
And guess what?
Even 5 hrs SOT and 2-3 days of standby time. Using OOS 3.5.5

I'm also worried about OP3 battery life, I even asked a question some time ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/help/battery-health-t3455138
I installed AccuBattery and it shows me 2700mAh capacity :/ I have the OP3 since 1.7.16
The accuracy of those tools is not proved.
If u trust them u can also install a solar app and put or phone into the sun for recharging the battery.

nope but they seem to get the same values as the extern meters. If anyone with a brand new phone would use the app, that would clarify a lot.
Maybe our battery never had 3000mAh Who knows? Has someone tested it on release? [ATTETION: a bit of irony]
My Accu health is at 90% and Kapaziti has 2.695

26OCT delivered, AccuBattery shows 3000 here, I never full cycled the battery to below 20%, 10% rarely 1 time until now & charge the battery upto 80%-90% only
Also read this article - https://gizmodo.com/how-to-take-care-of-your-smartphone-battery-the-right-w-513217256\
Maybe OnePlus cheaped out on batteries, I lost faith in this company, I will move to a Flagship Pixel once My OP3 is not usable anymore.
I wanted a pixel but I could buy the OP3 AND the OP3T for the price of one Pixel.

battery life

have been using Rog 3 about a month and noticed that the battery is not that great especially if we consider it is a 6000mha, at least in my device
thought i would share some screenshot to my battery and hear your opinions if you think it is OK or there is something wrong
What did you expect? Your battery life is pretty normal for a 6000mah battery device. Not piss poor. Not great. Just normal. Were you expecting 3 days standby time with normal usage?
I might see it wrongly but the first pic is showing the phone is up 1 day 9hrs without charging, that's more than what I would asked for.

Something is wrong with your set. Please get a refund from the seller. Even by playing PUBG or COD in X-Mode at max brightness does not drain from 100% to 0% in 3 hours.

Can't compare a 60hz screen with a phone giving 144hz screen. The drain of the screen will be much heavier than 60hz.
The 6000 mah battery is really good when you compare from specs point of view. Higher CPU clock speed, higher GPU clock and higher screen refresh rate and faster and more RAM. A Ferrari will use much more gas than a standard car even your Ferrari have a bigger gaz tank.
I can use this phone without ever think about getting out of juice before I get to sleep.
In the last 7 hours I used my phone for 4h20, playing game during 2 hours (COD and PUBG) and 50% of the battery remaining. So if I keep using the phone that way it means that I could run out of battery with about 8h SoT and 4 hours of gaming. I never had a phone allowing me to play that many hours of high quality games with all graphics to max.

Yes, I don't know a phone that gives you the perfect battery calibration. This phone show a loss of battery really fast in the first 10% then afterward it is slower.
I remember my Sony Z Ultra was really slow to lose the first 10% then battery was dropping really fast until reaching 20 25. And the remaining battery was longer to be used than the 60 previous %.
Or my HTC Sensation XE that could be used about half a day to drop from 5% to 0.
