Screen on time - Lenovo P2 Real Life Review

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Lenovo P2 before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

S244 FTW!
S244 firmware is as good as S062... Worth the wait for S244 OTA... LeMoto will issue OTA every quarter...?

Somehow feel the battery drain is more on mobile data. Wifi seems to have improved.

This illustrates that the network signal in your vacinity is generally poor... it will be worse if we have dual SIM active searching for poor signal all the time....

Maybe, but in the same aread previously, it didn't drop as much as now. I did not do a factory reset for this OTA, I had done it for the first Nougat update though. Followed one of your advise on another forum and wiped cache. Don't think factory reset should matter much. The Phone itself continues to be butter smooth.
BTW - Does the video playing still have issues? When I try to play video taken previously, it redirects me to the latest photo/video instead of playing it. Very annoying indeed. I have to wait for the video to completely cache, and then go back and play again. Sorry to post this issue here, but this seems to still happen with the latest update.

Immediately after taken video from the rear/front camera, the default player is Google Photos (I've set it to be so...). You might need to :

Mine
Its S062 marshmallow 6.0.1

i Am Getting 11hr+ SOT with stand by around 42hr+

2nd full charged cycle on S244 stock firmware

how can be possible over 15h SOT?
all people should specify if the model used is an european p2a42 OR che chinese (64gb is always chinese model) p2c72.
i have c72......

drain batery nougat
I updated yesterday to the nougat and felt that the battery is draining much faster than before. P2a42 version s244. Any tips? I'm even thinking about downgrading

people should specify if they use
1. p2a42 or p2c72 phone
2. battery saver mode (because it disables vibration,reduces cpu clock,limits background accitivies...)
3. the overall effort for the SOT, gaming? gps? only browsing? speaker never on, or lots of music?
4. IMPORTANT, stock rom with lots of white color or custom rom with substratum black themes, black apps, black wallpapers...etc
5. brightness % ?...... 25....50...75...100% ?
6. mostly 4g or wifi? only wifi?
WITHOUT THESE INFO it is useless to compare 8... 10...16...18 sot.
---------- Post added at 05:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 AM ----------
i start...
100 to 10% 11h45min Sot. ___ 1day 20h standby
1. p2c72 with a42 stock rom s244 ota
2. NO battery saver mode
3. heavy usage mixed gaming, gps testing apps, youtube with music background playback, telegram, browsing
4. black wallpaper used on homepage and youtube black mod version. everything else stock white
5. precisely 25% brightness
6. 95% wifi usage, only 1h light use outside home 3g

I highly recommend a factory wipe when going from one Android version to another. I too had some problems when I went from Marshmallow to Nougat. My problems were solved with a wipe.

Yeah with me also... Do a factory reset

I still see more drain than before. Maybe 30 mins less than before (maybe I am being picky, but hey P2 has set a high standard ). I used the Feature/Smart Scene during sleeping hours. Not sure if this is helpful or harmful (It should be considering I am disabling data,wifi gps etc.). But seems to drain little more after the update.
Secondly, I have been testing my home wifi speeds last 2 days. Does speedtest and wifi analyser eat more battery than other apps ?
Other than that, no other change in my usage pattern.

On stock ROM s233, Installed greenify, substratum swift dark theme, 10 hours SOT from 100% to 20%

On stock s244 without root(No subst,Greenify etc) 10hr 40min from (100-19)℅

I am getting 10-11hrs SoT and i have to put to charge every 1.5 days.. Is that normal??.. Someone pls help

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Samsung Galaxy Tab A series's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.

P585 here. Standby drain is fantastic. I charged it to 100% and forgot about it for a week. Found it on 97%.

SM-T550 and Marshmallow 6.0 the time with screen off and battery drain are great, 4 days 4 hours on standby starting at 100% and it is now 93% I had 7.1.1 Nougat on the tablet for a week and My standby time and basic battery use was 1/2 of what it is with 6.0 Marshmallow.

Ok, thanks. I plan on getting this unit over the next week (Amazon has it for $178 right now), and like to know what t do or avoid. Conclusion would seem to be: stick to Marshmallow then. Not a problem,
Thanks.

I don't know which Nougat ROM you were using, but I have the Ultralean version installed on my T580. I just pulled it out of the shoulder bag where it is has on standby for the last 23hrs. It is still at 100%. Battery drain isn't just dependent on the ROM itself but also on what apps you have running in the background. That's why I chose a ROM who's main emphasis was on getting rid of most of the Samsung bloat.

Are you sure you read the same thread that I did? Yeah, I saw that a couple of people didn't succeed in properly implementing the solution, but the majority did. Personally, I'd at least make the attempt to get the latest version I could to work, and then, and only then, revert to an older version if I couldn't. My standby drain is less than the bobfrantic reports with MM, so I know it can be done.
40 days and counting... I turn on the screen only to update apps.
Bought it second hand with faulty LCD screen, replaced it and now testing the original battery.

Heavy use endurance

Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the Lenovo P2's battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.

The battery life was blissful and why wouldn't it be! The power effecient Snapdragon 625 and humongous capacity will push this phone for a very long time before I would end up near a charging socket. But lately, I have been noticing a drop in the battery life of this phone. I received an update in August 2017 which was a July security patch of 125mb. After that update I did notice a drop in battery life. Not that it is terrible now, but surely it doesn't feel like 5100 mAh any more, or may be it feels like 4000 mAh. I used to push this phone for 2 full days earlier and still would have 20% juice left, but now my P2 gives up at 5 to 10 hours past a day. It still impressive but these are not the stats that reflect a 5100 mAh capacity with a very efficient cpu, and considering the fact that it was much better before that 125mb update. And when Lenovo phones get an update they never specify the summary of that update. So I doubt that a security patch alone cannot be 125mb. There was surely some bug fixes in that update, but I did not notice any fixes instead a drop in battery life sadly!
I haven't noticed any change in battery life since the update. At my current user pattern I should, according to GSam, be able to browse the web for 10 hours before battery is depleted. SOT would be almost 20 hours.
I have the sames problems.
Have you got à solution?

Just reducing the size of lot of videos using VidCompact app, not all other mobiles will survive 8hrs. While I monitored the cpu usage it did not even get lower and stayed full time in 2.1ghz
one year on still getting 14-15 hours SOT from daily ( normal ) use , i have noticed battery is running down a lot quicker playing games though , and when it its around 40% battery rapidly drops

Nah i'm thinking of getting a new phone . Its a race between the Moto G5 plus ( unlock the boot-loader and modify the camera ) or the Honor 6X ( on 3 uk firmware so needs debranding to an open one ) . I'm leaning towards the moto as I've read the camera is stunning once its been modded .

P2 is one of the best in class. It has good display, battery life, speaker and camera. Lot of mods and custom roms are also available. Choice is yours.
Amazing
Have owned hundreds of android phones, and deal with lots day in day out, use my phone to play music when working, watch videos on it, gaming too, battery is phenomenal. After can full on day of hard usage, the battery is still over 50%..... This phone just rocks!!!
How's ram management on 3/32 version with aosp los roms?
The battery is great and the phone is rugged, mine got smashed so many times and a friend even sat on it and the aluminium shell eventually cracked (I replaced it, and had to take it apart).
Placed the battery on a weight scale just for fun. The weight of the phone comes at a price, it feels heavy or well heavier than most phones of that screen size but the battery performance is great and the phone is super rugged.
After a year of use, the battery is not as impressive. Getting enough for 3-4 days. Now for 2-3.

The SOT depends om my user pattern and apparently the reception also plays a big part. Not to mention I have many apps which never sleep.
I recently hit 8 hours of SOT when using it for 43 hours. That's from a 100% to 20% charge.

Screen on time is bad , really bad :(

I m getting around 4-4.5 hours screen on time , Aod off , Edge off , Just wifi is on at home and its off when i go out and mobile data is on . Usage - browsing , netflix , web . Power saving mode is disabled , Brightness is around medium and resolution is FHD+ , Its been 2 weeks + since i got it.
What should i do , I see people getting way more along with way more usage than mine .
same, its hard for me to get over 5 hours.

What service provider do you have ?
Are you using a dark theme? Darker colors are easier on the battery to produce on an AMOLED screen.
What are you doing during screen-on time? If you are doing resource intensive activities like using Navigation, that will absolutely kill battery. Someone having 5+ hours of screen-on time, may be doing something passive with their screens on. It's really difficult to go apples to apples in these cases.
User sewe used 1659 mAh on screen during his 7h+ run. How much is your stating is due to screen in mAh?
same here, exynos, running in performance mode, wifi & mobile data on, 6.45 on battery and 4.40 screen on time, 56% left on battery, I do turn screen brightness down a bit as I don't need it full whack when in doors
The only other factor is gonna be wakelocks , or Signal strength.

So, it sounds like you have the Exynos version. I have been hearing some stuff about shorter battery times on different variants. I think they might be Exynos related.
Are most of you using WQHD? I had an S8 Plus and then got the Note 8 and I can say from using both phones the Note 8 doesn't have as good battery life. I run my screen on WQHD and I get through most of the day. Battery life is average in my view, but battery life isn't a big issue since the Note 8 has fast wireless charging and fast wired charging and I have a portable battery so I always have something to charge the phone. I mean worse battery life was expected compared to the S8 Plus, bigger display and all with a smaller battery...

NEW Thread, Battery Life (SOT) for Note 8 on Android Oreo!!!!!!

Post your most recent batter life number if you have a note 8 on the new android oreo update, lets compare and see how we can maximize use

I'm bot usually that guy, but I tend to agree with this guy. Do we really need to obsess over how long we can use the device before the battery dies?
I've found that just using the device without caring how long it lasts, I get way longer than expected battery life.
The problem with this is, everyone uses their phone differently. So unless people will tell us how bright the screen was, using wifi, 4g, gaming, Facebook and for how long, etc etc, it would be pointless IMO. If you want better battery life, reduce brightness, as this is the biggest drain on the battery, stop all syncing, remove apps like Facebook, reduce the resolution, turn on power saving and turn off animations or put them to .5.
Exactly & agree on all the above. SOT is so over rated & it's easily to manipulate the results. I mean I have posted my SOTs before but I use it only for comparison, ie rom & kernel testing based on my own phone usage. Comparing SOT with others' results doesn't really mean anything except to those looking for some kind of useless bragging rights.
I find the Oreo update sucks. I dont know if its just me. my phones gets heated for no reason, even if its not being used or charging. Battery Life sucks so downgraded the Noughat. Happy to have the 5-7hours SOT and less heated phone.
Whats with these guys and the excessive use of exclamation marks? AND not reading before posting? There are several threads about this topic
sorry, I know some of you are just enjoy the phone etc, Im trying to find out what other people are getting as I seem to be draining pretty bad, when I use better battery stats it shows wifi running 100% despite it being off
Battery life dropped a lot with the Oreo update for me, har resetting, cache resetting nothing is helping. I get tops 3 and a half hours.
Yeah Oreo sucks I got only 3.5 hours SOT now back on Nougat I'm getting again 5-7 hours SOT
Didnt want to open a new thread for another Battery consultation. I have the 950U1 model and after upgrading to Oreo ive had an average of 1 hour and 15 min of Screen time and it drained my battery %6. Is that within the norms of how it is? Just curious.

Anyway, this is very strange as the majority is having possitive feedback on battery life, also the Oreo itself is having some battery (app) optimizations that should help... but no!
I started other thread asking for opinions about the OTA oreo, I mean only OTA, as some got their oreo in beta or cross flashing from other countries, or changing some parts, In my country we dont have OTA oreo yet, at least for officially distribuited devices which are ALL branded, (locked or unlocked), as samsung does not sell cellphones to consumers directly in Mexico, only through 3 carriers,but all these comments make doubt about updating from nougat, reading this thread has made my uncertainty bigger, in the meantime, I disabled OTA updates, just in case, maybe waiting for Oreo 8.1 would be better

You can't accurately judge/assess battery life in increments. Go through a few full cycles and see what averages out.
A complete disaster. That Dip is 45 minutes paying music with the screen off.
I've had it for two weeks, cleared cache and dalvik all that. I need know how to downgrade.
Google has been iffy. I have the unlocked Samsung note 8, I use it on Verizon. Bought it directly from Sammy

Charger? Are you plugged in while heating ocurs? There is literally nothing to heat up... Strange
Hello !
Unfortunately, it happens when the phone is unplugged...
I just tested 60hz and it's not as hot...
It seems that 120hz adaptative IS causing that..

But why on lower part of screen? Could be a damaged unit....there is nothing behind....charging port and few cables.... literally....
If you have warranty try to claim it...
Try running 90hz....best compromise.... Search for setedit - no need to root.... It may be best....for me it works...better battery and no human will see difference between 90 and 120
Exactly i can't understand why it is located in the bottom
I will try 90hz THANK YOU very much

Mine is also heating in that area without being plugged.
Really weird, since I'm running stock 12.5.7.0.

Oh so we have the exact same issue !
I'm also on 12.5.7.0
I hope next update is going to correct it ...
People say that 12.5.8 / 12.5.9 are reducing the heat
Are you also using swipe gestures?

Yes I do
Do you think that this is the cause of heating ?

Well, that's the only thing I can think off. Also, most likely the heat is present on more devices, but people just consider it "warm" rather than heat.
Being on the lower bottom of the screen hides it really well too, as that's not the most interacted part of the screen.
Absolutely

I'm going to use the device without swipe gesture to see if this is the problem

- when charging

- when app(s) drain the battery a lot

It happens everytime i am scrolling on social médias ( tik tok, twitter, Facebook, Instagram...)
I'm not gaming at all
When I'm watching youtube or Netflix, the device is cool !
I think it's a refresh rate issue..
My SOT is around 5 hours

To be fair, in the last 3-4 OTA updates, I haven't done a clean install. (Didn't wiped and format data since I bought the phone).
Refresh rate seem to be a logic reason for it.
Also, a while ago I played with an app that was allowing to change the refresh rate to 90Hz, but it was somewhat buggy and I switched back to 120Hz ever since.

Okay thanks for the feedback
I tried Factory reset and Hard Reset several Times but nothing change...
Guys I just noticed that when I'm outside, next to the ventilator or in a room that is not that hot : my Mi 11 doesn't overtheat AT ALL
