Can you guys download accubattery and check your estimated capacity against design capacity and thus you battery health.
Please attach details of your ROM and the age of your phone.

3277 mah, beta 9 (stock), bought around Xmas time. Not sure if the mah will change if app is installed for a while and it sees several cycles.
It showed 3250 on new phone
LOL these apps.

Actually it just compares the percent charged to the change in mAh so it isn't some weird bs like "deleting batterstats.bin will increase battery life". This reading is also shown in settings in MacBooks.
Mine was at 94% estimated capacity the first day i got the phone at its release. Now, it shows 92%.

Hi, I recently got a Z3 compact from clove uk. And I haven't seen the 6+ hours of screen on times that other people are reporting. I've had Battery Monitoring Widget on the the phone since the beginning, and while the system files say the battery has 2663mAh of capacity, the app only records me using up to 2300mAh of battery from full to dead.
I'm not worried about the perceived runtimes as I'm in a bad cell service area and I still have the new phone syndrome. But the physical capacity of the battery seems to be lower than stated on my device. Does anyone else use the battery monitoring widget and can report their numbers?

If you goto the compare tab of Battery Monitoring widget, what's the measured capacity of your battery?

Right now it shows "0" but I will charge it right now and tell you. I have only just installed the app. No measurement yet.

Thanks for checking, for more accurate results, it's best if you could run the phone from 100% to dead once or twice, so the monitor can capture the full range of your battery.

It will take some time though. That battery just won't die :laugh:
To whatever extent you have "new cell syndrome", it's gonna appear as reduced capacity.
First result at +-27% accuracy: 2280 mAh
Charging cycles: 2

If you can get a number with accuracy below 10%, that would be best, cause batteries are usually manufactured to 10% capacity accuracy.
Thank you
Allright - just don't expect to see the final results within the next few hours
It now says:
+-12% accuracy and still 2280mAh
After unplugging the charger it's: 2253mAh
The value went up to 2398mAh. Accuracy is still at +-12%.

What kind of screen on time are you seeing?
If I remember correctly I had a maximum of ~7 hrs screentime. I did some benchmarking and stuff like that so I'm pretty satisfied with battery life.
Hi all ! I have the Samsung Note 8 F version bought from pre-order. I have noticed that after the last update the battery of the phone is much less and above it gets warmer faster. I was curious about the capacity of the battery after a few months of normal charging without a fast charge from 20% to 100%. I read on the live battery topic about fg_cycle and fg_fullcapnom. Now I have 80 cycles with 3130 mAh capacity. I wanted to check this out and I bought the Stick Charge Meter Keweisi. I downloaded the phone at 1%, I close it, attached the stick and started charging. After 2h the LED turns green and the displayed battery charge is 2921 mAh. My question is why so little? Even I have lost in 5 months of using 300mAh or the batteries have a lower value than the declared one. Thank you!
LE:Sorry for my english!
have 2 F models and can't say I've noticed much difference in either of them, haven't done exact measurements though but both always running high performance mode and easily last a 16 hour day with regular 8 hour on screen time, what I have noticed in al my notes since the Note 2 is that after a while the first 10% seems to drop quicker from 100 to 90 but overall very stable, guessing that it is the phones battery management doing that
I have 4h sot with all on but maybe lost capacity fast this new generation of battery on S8,Note8?
Boss of Samsung mobile say battery lost 5% after 2 years of normal uz.Really?
Try checking with Accubattery app.

I also tried AccuBattery.In the application I had 3250 mAh.The calculation method used by this application is erroneous. If you load up to 80% or less will lower your value and if you drop to 100% in time will jump 3300 mAh. You can not check the battery capacity with the phone turned on because it is logical that there will be more consumers and will enter more mAh when charging. I will do a test with this stick charge meter but with the phone open and sure there will be more mAh to the situation when you have the phone closed. AccuBattery recommends that the phone be charged for a real appreciation to be carried on an airplane.
Hi. I have the European dual SIM version of Note 8 SM-950F and also noticed this. Don't know what to do. Here's my AccuBattery info:
We have tested the battery capacity today with the phone open. I downloaded it up to 1%, I installed AccuBattery and connected it to Stick Meter Keweisi. When I made the green LED I pulled the phone from the charger. I mention that as long as the phone was loaded I did not walk to him. I attach the result.I notice the difference between Stick and AccuBattery.
What build are you on? Just thinking if sammy is messing/patching with charging/discharging limits due to the stupid deep discharge?
I have an European version note8.
Accubattery says 3062 mah.
Fg_cycle is 81 and fg_fullcapnom is 3025.
I've had the phone for 4 months. When I bought it fg_fullcapnom was 3250 mah
Is it defective?
I have exynos Note8 F with vers.N950FXXU3BRA8.
@PlutoDelic,everything that's possible. I can not believe you can lose 300 mAh in 5 months with normal loads.

Check this out!
After one year use I am now at 3,601 mAh
What's everyone else at?
Although I use Accubattery app
I don't think its estimate of battery health or capacity is particularly accurate.
The app states that it estimates capacity.
It estimates mine as approximately 3600 mAh
Bought Aug 2018
Manufactured 21 Aug 2018
never trust the battery apps for how much % i have on my battery , apple have that but thats way out my x says 93% but still gives me the same screen on time as when i bought it , by unplugging the battery and plugging it back in the iphone now says 100% , with my note 9 i still get over 8 hours screen on time , all these apps on batteries do is count the full battery cycles and deducts the % over time , the best way to check any battery is by your screen on time , if its good then theres nothing to worry about
What did it show from the start? When I first got my phone, it calculated that my capacity was around 3400 mah. I actually managed to change the battery on the warranty and now it says estimated 3800 mah. An improvement, but not really what I was expecting...
3782 here.
I have been using my brand new Tab S8 5G for 8 days or so. I have AccuBattery installed. The estimated battery capacity has been very low from Day 1. Currently I get:
Battery Health 87%
Estimated Capacity 6759mAh
Design Capacity 7760mAh
Based on 31 sessions 1031% charged for 69688mAh
I understand it takes a few days for AccuBattery to function accurately, but I think it's been enough. The design capacity has been automatically measured and already adjusted to a lower value than what Samsung advertise (8000mAh). I've also installed 3C Battery Monitor app, but the estimate is very similar (3718). I have bought 2 other (non-Samsung) android devices in the past few months, but their estimated capacities are much closer than 100%.
Has anyone expericed the same? Or do you think mine is a bad lemon and should be returned? Any insight would be much appreciated! Cheers.
Are you charging to 100% or just 85% (battery save option). If you charge up only to 85% then it is accurate.
Thanks! That's a very good question. I have used the 85% charging limit option for a couple of days but left it off for the majority of time.
But wouldn't it be the same from AccuBattery's point of view if you used the option or not, as the tab tells the app 85% as 85% not as 100%? (or maybe my assumption is wrong).
I have since updated AccuBattery (which cleared all my history!) and started self- recalibrating the app as their website suggests (you go down as low as you can, and start charging until drawing ampere really finishes at over 100%). After a few iterations, hopefully the app will show more accurate info. (Or not, I will just come terms with it!)
https://accubattery.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213575425-How-to-manually-benchmark-your-battery-health
İ think accubattery calculates with the Design capacity of the device, with the the Option to charge up to only 85% you would have charged up to 6800mah vs. 8000mah 100%. But i could be wrong too
Just not to open another thread. I have a similar situation with my tab s8+. All apps that do something hardware/battery related report the battery to be 9800mah and not the Samsung claimed
10090.
As for now I'm letting sccubattery do its reading, but so far battery life has been ok for a tablet with high end Specifications. On average I get 8 to 9h of SoT on average not very demanding usage.
Yes my S8 has also a considerable difference between Samsung's advertised battery capacity (8000 mah) vs the capacity apps like AccuBattery read (7760 mah). That's probably their way to prevent users from overcharging their devices.
On top of it, I have also found that my tab can go quite a bit after showing 100% charged. Following AccuBattery's re-calibrating (re-benchmarking) method l mentioned earlier, in one charging episode I saw my tab going up to 8700 mah or so until it started showing 0 or negative charging values about 40 mins after it showed 100%. Having overcharged my tab a few times this way, AccuBattery now shows about 100% for battery health. Obviously this isn't a good way to charge your battery in terms of its longevity, but it might help to calibrate your new device with a battery app. When the % reaches 100%, the estimated capacity on AccuBattery is normally much lower, something like 6700 mah, as I initially got. I need to do more tests, but I find the leeway Samsung spare is a bit too much.
Interestingly, I have also found quite a bit of variability in this 'fake 100% battery' setting across different manufacturers (or at least different devices). I am applying the same recalibration process on my Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro and OnePlus 8T. They are both about 9 months old. My OnePlus behaves somewhat similarly with my Tab S8, showing about 10% extra capacity after 100%, whereas my Xiaomi really stops charging when it reaches 100%.
Hey. This is my stats on my S8+. I recommend trying to completely discharge the battery to 0%, charge to 100% and wait until current is 0 mA. Do this min 3 times in row. Then you will get a more accurate reading
Hello all,
I got my self a Find X3 Pro a few months ago and I noticed that Accu Battery Pro and Aida 64 Battery, never reach the min capacity of 4400mah or typical capacity of 4500mah
Is this thing a issue ? Or my battery is degraded from brand new ? Or is this a software incorrect reporting issue ?
Thanks in advance !
Make sure to let it charge for about 7 minutes after it reaches 100%. The phone is not actually fully charged when it reads 100.
See here, after the first charging graph
Oppo Find X3 Pro review
The Oppo Find X3 Pro employs a similar display to the one we enjoyed on the Find X2 Pro. It's a 6.7" LPTO AMOLED screen of 3,216 x 1,440 px resolution or...
www.gsmarena.com
Then check again the meters. If they still read 4200, then you may have a degraded battery.
Also, consider that even if the phone is "new", it may have been produced a long time ago (like a year ago or more), thus suffering from some battery degradation already.
I always make sure I let it charge for about 10 more minutes at 100%. Still between 4000mah - 4200mah it displays.
Recently I replaced the battery for an old Mi 5s Plus and after a few charges (3-4) it will show the correct mah of 3800 (~3792mah)
So, did someone actually have these apps display the correct rating of the battery ?
I will give it a try tomorrow, but my phone is 1.5 years old at this point, so I don't expect to see anywhere near 4500 for sure.
I checked mine, but only 2 cycles it showed 89% The phone is 8 months old.
Thank you for your feedback...
My phone is barely 2-3 months old, should I try for warranty ?

Try to charge slowly to 100% using a 3A cable or less and leave it in charge until Aida64 show complete charged, then check charge counter how much mah show. Normally the counter will be a little less respect to declared capacity, like for hard disk the real capacity is not the full declared capacity. My X3 pro is used and charging to 100% show less of 4000 mah but battery life isn't bad.
18 months old phone, about 84% health (only one measurement though)

I'm sorry to tell you but you are mistaken, my ex Red Magic 3 phone indicated my rated capacity for battery and my recently replaced battery for Mi 5s Plus also indicated 3792 mah out of 3800mah, so I presume the issue comes for a incorrectly stored phone when I purchased it or old batch.
I always charge slow or at 1.8A because I'm never in a hurry, I even charged it at 500mah overnight and it went to just 4115 mah out of min 4400mah

No it depend from device to device and also from update cause it change also with kernel version. When I have OnePlus 7 pro always charged slowly bu never reached the full capacity of charger counter, this changed when I tried Oxygen OS 12 India beta, the battery show 4500 in charge counter exactly like the battery capacity. So it can depend from many factors and isn't simply to understand how really battery life is.
Thank you for all of your support and answers !
Yesterday I installed Battery Guru 2.0 and seems a more decent app than AccuBattery, will keep monitoring
AccuBattery and Battery Guru 2.0 tell me that I only have 1598mAh.
Aida64 tell me 3504mAh.
I don't understand...
I only know that my battery life is poor. I arrive with 20% or less at 8:00pm.
It is also true that I have many IOT applications always active, as well for the smartwatch, wifi, BT and GPS always on and also Always On Display all the day.
Cheers.

DO not forget to check the dual cells in the settings of the apps (accu battery and battery guru)
But even so.... 1600 mah x2 => ~3200mah
Very very unusual for this phone and battery
