Hello guys,
I heard a lot, and have seen many videos about this device's battery, and it's incredible. But they were draining it very hard , macimum brightness, and heavy games , full hd videos.
I need to know how long the battery should last with moderate usage and a screen brightness of 40% maximum on average?
Lasts Very Long Indeed

On average usage (Little Talking, Browsing, Navigating), mine lasts about 2.5 days.

On a daily usage of Calls, Social Media, etc you'll get 10hrs SOT easily and even more than that.

I've been reading a lot on these forums, and no one has seemed to address ways to improve battery life on the LG Revolution. I just got this phone a week ago and I've been averaging 13 to 14 hours of battery life with moderate to heavy use (applications, e-mail, texting, etc...).
Anyone have any tips or tricks to improve the battery life besides rooting it?
Is it worth rooting it now with Gingerbread rumored on the way?
Thank you all in advance.
personally..GB isnt available with Verizon yet..I would look for any leaks or anything that isnt officially supported..unless you wanna try it..turn BT off..use wifi when you can..turn screen brightness to 50 on the bar..try to look for battery saving apps on the marketplace..just a thought

I just got the Decrapified Rom on mine today, and am seeing some decently better battery life.(i used to get ~12hours anyway with some heavy usage)
Also...when I rooted and customized SetCPU a bit I saw much better battery life. I was able to clock down the CPU when the screens off, or when the battery is low, etc.
Just some thoughts for you

This helps battery life? I always thought wifi drained battery. But your saying wifi drains less battery than 4G? What about 3G?
Check your apps as well. I was watching my battery drop a percentage in literally minutes. I thought it was just the phone, and that I had to live with it, but in my case it was Go Weather!!
This app is EXTREMELY bad - drains battery insanely, and even when you configure it, it keeps popping back up in the running apps and goes to town draining your battery.
Apps like that can make a somewhat average battery life turn into an insanely bad situation.
13 to 14 hours with moderate to heavy use???
I'm lucky to get 10 hours without any use. I let it sit on a table overnight, and the next morning it was down to 28%.
Hi, I'm planning buy a XSP. I found on the internet a few battery test but no with gaming on mobile. I read from one person that gaming on this phone draining battery very quickly. Is it right? Can someone post you experience? For example if you play Real Racing 3 or some other high usage game for an one hour, how much it drain battery? Thanks

battery drain is high during game play
Device does/will get hot while playing after 10-15 minds hence battery drain.....
The device getting hot is OK if you are needing a hand warmer on a cold day.

Thanks . and about hot... I have now LG Optimus 4X HD and I think that this phone from LG is hotter in gaming and others
Yes the phone gets warm when gaming, but not excessive (like my old SGS2).
Battery goes down faster when gaming, but I wouldn't call it a drain. This is usual for all phones.
What I really value with SP here are 2 things:
1) it plays heavy graphical games very smoothly and
2) in standby stamina mode the phone almost doesn't use battery power.
Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the LG Nexus 5X'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.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

How about the battery life for things like video, or is that what you were doing?

You mean HEAVILY
Heavy usage scenario
Over 3 hours switching between gaming and streaming a live sporting event with Chrome, texting and emails in between. 40% brightness, no settings disabled, everything stock.
I'm impressed how games don't slow down to a crawl on this device even at its maximum throttled point, and the device stays quite cool as well. It has the perfect balance between performance, battery life and heat in these kinds of high load scenarios. In my experience this is a huge improvement over the N5 which was both hot and slow after 15-20 minutes of heavy usage.

Depending on game you can have an average of 4.5 hours of non-stop gaming which is impressive for this kind of performance. My best is 5.5 sot playing wonder tactics (yes it was a lazy lazy day)
From my side, in overall 4 hours of non-stop gaming using hard 3D games with wi-fi enabled and 50% of brightness.
If using web,YouTube and games battery drain fast.
Right now my phone lasts about 3-4 hours with heavy usage. I'm hoping I can get this straightened out. I may have to upgrade to the Nexus 6p or hope they develop a battery case for extended juice.
Heavy use endurance is poor, on a heavy usage day I go through two full charges.
Guys, How is the screen on time on P9. I'm getting about 6hrs 15 minutes on SoT on average. What about you guys?
Are you kidding? What is your firmware version and what is your usage pattern? Mixed, gaming, browsing ... Thanks.

I'm on EVA-L19C636B393. I generally get about 14-15 hours of use. I keep my brightness at about 25-30% and have it auto when outside. Almost always on WiFi. watch YouTube alot and do a lot of browsing. Play 30-1 hour of gaming per day. Use Reddit alot. I also have installed NAPTIME app even though I'm unrooted.
Im getting better SOT than my nexus 6p
Can someone please do a battery test on Antutu Tester (availible here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antutu.tester ). It can be a short one, and tell me the score. Please, thanks in advance!
4% test

So what kind of battery is everyone getting. First day was getting horrible battery life and then this morning I remembered I never turned off WiFi and Bluetooth scanning. Once I did that battery had seemed to stabilize and seems much better.
When posting battery life please let us know whether your using 1080 P or 2K, and the refresh rate your running at. I'll update at the end of the day with my battery life.
Finally someone opened a separate thread for that d, not getting mine till early next week, looking forward to see others usage
Still at around 50% and about 3 hours SOT.
Light browsing, youtube, bunch of speed tests/emails etc.
Does as well, if not even better (after updates) than my 6T did. 90hz on and all.
First battery run, bot too shabby

After downloading 4 torrent files(2gb each), streaming 2 movies back to back on Netflix, playing Asphalt 9 for about an hour, clicking a few pictures. I think it's pretty good, almost as good as my Redmi Note 5 pro...
P.S - Screen resolution is 1080p though & 90hhz
People are getting pretty high times. Someone got over 10 hours of SOT
https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/bqhlg8/oneplus_7_pro_first_day/
Here's my sot. Wanted to get it lower but I need to get the sack.
Pretty Good
Surprisingly, I am getting better battery life on a White Theme + Hyperion Launcher than I got on Dark Theme + Nova Launcher.
The Dark + Nova was my first setup after unboxing the phone. I factory reset the device and then let the theme be default, and installed Hyperion instead of nova.
Refresh Rate : 90Hz
Resolution : Auto Switch
Brightness : Auto
One additional change from when I had the dark theme is that I disabled Ambient Display showing when phone is picked (It only shows when a new notification comes in)
Enabled Double tap to wake.
Not entirely true

It is pretty easy to get numbers like the ones shown on the reddit thread.
I am pretty sure the person with the 10 Hours SOT did s quick top up at a around 40 or 50 % (And let the phone charge up to around 60 or 70)
That does not count as a full charge. And voila you get those impossible SOT numbers.
If someone with that kind of SOT does not also post a picture of the battery drain graph, dont believe them.

The person who's posted about the 10 hours sot did post screenshots and did not top off at all. Looked at the screenshots myself.
Not great, but here's mine with some moderate use

Ah, well if that is the case I am happy to be wrong about this.
Any ideas on how to get that kind of SOT while using the phone normally (Telegram, Whatsapp and other Social Media + Some youtube and games) ?
Thanks.
Got the phone today. I charged it to full, then started configuring everything. Heavy web browsing, set up about 30 apps, took 20 some odd photos, played around with every system setting I could find, and played 2 games for about an hour total. Oh, I use a persistent VPN 24/7, which tends to add to the data and battery drain as well.
Clearly, the battery is horrible.

Hey guys,
This is what I'm getting on Day 2 after I set everything up yesterday and it had several hours to settle in.
I'm at home on WiFi, it's pretty dull here today so low screen brightness and I'm not a heavy user (in terms of not playing games or demanding apps).
I dark mode everything and used root to optimise everything I can too so that will have helped.
Need a little more time to figure out how Idle drain will perform but right now for my usage pattern, this is the same / or better than what my OP6 would give me in similar circumstances.
Sent from my OnePlus7Pro using XDA Labs
Don't understand bad reputation of OP7pro battery life...
Mine is way better than my OP6
Last firmware 9.5.4, charged it yesterday morning at 100%, dropped at 49% (3h50 SOT) when i went to sleep, moderate use, gps, bt, no games, all default settings, brightness at 50%
So it's a good 2 days battery for me

He wasn't talking about me, he was talking about someone that posted I think on Reddit that claimed to get 10+ hours sot with this phone. He apparently didn't see that they did post pictures as proof.
I'm on my first cycle and pretty satisfied with battery life.
These are the stats but keep in mind that I started with 90 %.
Always on 90 Hz, auto resolution, two SIM cards, only mobile internet. Brightness is on auto, I texted a lot, surfed, had some calls, instagram, Facebook etc.
I'll keep an eye on this but so far I can't complain!
