Hello..
I recently bought this phone, i think its very nice, camera is great, charging is good, but its killing me that i am always getting around 3-4 SoT, what could be wrong??
I bought phone from TradingShenzhen,
Xiaomi eu. rom, 13.0.13 stable.
120hz
Dark mode
AoD ( Always on ) is OFF
I really expect 5-6-7 hours from this phone considering battery is 5000mAh and that alot of options are off.
Should i change ROM? Is something eating up my battery? Please help me, thank you.

Check app autostart and app battery saver level, screen resolution, FHD+/WQHD+, lower frequency to 90Hz or 60Hz.
After making the settings, if necessary, wait 48 hours to see the result.
Do a factory reset if nothing changes.
Or install a Xiaomi EU rom Weekly Miui 14 A13.
On my 12 pro, switching to A13 increased battery life.

If more SOT/battery runtime is your priority, consider changing to custom ROM.
I can get a whole day use from full charge , about 8-9 hours SOT @ 60hz. Even 10 hours is possible.

I've had my device for a day now and I was worried at first weather the 3300mah battery would last a day's use and I can gladly say this device is optimised very well.
With 4hours of on screen time with 50% battery left this device has met my expectations and further.
I've hardly come of this phone all day.
So for me it's a thumps up if anyone is worried about battery life it should be perfectly fine for a day+ use.

I've actually so far experienced the opposite today I had under 3 hours SOT and was at around 35%, though I did notice that high accuracy was enabled as well as WiFi scanning.
Will continue to monitor....
Screen on Time is a meaningless figure to judge battery life.
For instance - Browsing the web will drain way more battery life than watching a YouTube video
Th thing is with the MI9 auto brightness is way to aggressive.
If you use lot of outside it will drain lot faster than indoors.
Indoors 6 till 7 hours SOT no problem. Lot of outside 5 till 6 hours or. Something like that.

I've had it on manual
What I have noticed is when I was outdoors, there was some sort of outdoor mode being activated, so not the auto brightness but the automatic contrast. Got it in standard now and so will see how tomorrow on a full charge. Still though, I could swear that colours (the black theme on my SwiftKey keyboard) were adjusting in bright sunlight.
Will indeed keep an eye on this, but yeah so far battery is a let down, and that has been with full 4g signal, Bluetooth off etc
A friend sell his Mi9 after 3 days. With 2 sim cards and 50/50 wifi/lte he get about ~5h SOT without gaming and youtube after <1day.
With Youtube he can get easy 8h SOT but thats normal for Amoled.

Yes that auto contrast setting I have noticed too. Very strange. I can't get it off either.

I'm gonna report it as a bug.
Also as Cell Standby drain is high, I've just adjusted this setting, found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/how-to/fix-battery-drain-mobile-standby-t3883840/page1
To add at my SOT I use the MI9 in dark mode all the time.

Quick update: seems better already since i changed those settings. Got 30 mins SOT and still at 95%.
Will see how the rest of the day goes!
Hi,
I think something is wrong with the Cell standby usage.
I tried the fix for disabling Chinese antennas, but still it's like this.
https://imgur.com/a/EZD8Xmt
I'm on China version (I bought the mobile in China actually).
Any advice? Shall I switch to Global?
And it looks like that auto brightness seems to consume more battery than manual, is it just for me or something for more people?

I too had the bad drain but switching to LTE/WCDMA helped me so far I think.
I'm at 60% 2 hours SOT and I've been taking lots of photos, such switching that setting helped lots!
My brightness is on auto and seems to adapt pretty well I thought.
WiFi scanning is off.
And I don't have dark mode enabled.
Not much gaming tho but YouTube streaming.
Coming from OnePlus 6t and pixel 3 I'm doing the same things but noticing better battery life so for the 3300mah I think it's doing pretty well indeed I'm very satisfied
I never use auto brightness except when I want to use my phone in full sun (beach..) to activate the boost brightness.
My sot is 6 hours by day. Very good (level of the $9 /$9 plus).

But on the link it said the settings go back after restart of the phone.
Is this not happening with the Mi9?

It does. Hopefully it will get fixed in a future update in GLOBAL roms...
I have just updated to Global 10.2.26.0 ROM from 10.2.24.0 and I'm getting over 9hrs screen on time! I'm getting over 17-20 hrs with that screen on time so I would say it's doing great! I watch a good bit of movies and YouTube on it as well as do a lot of pictures and video. Do I do use it rather hard and get those numbers still!
Im on a PFAEUXM rom, i've found that the battery life is good when you are using the phone, i'm geussing the screen and the CPU are really efficient, but the standby drain when i don't use the phone is pretty bad..

Dude I just got 31hrs with 6hrs and 23 min SOT and I didnt even let it die. I use a lot of photography, video [email protected] I also watch a lot of movies and in-between I do a good bit of YouTube or Twitter.
I can get over 9hrs easy anytime. If I just got for maximum SOT I've passed 11hrs many times and never ran the Mi 9 dead. I mean sometimes it's within a few % but I always put it back on charge if that's the case.
I leave the brightness on auto but it seems I always have to go in the menu and push it higher to my liking.
Now understand this. This is mostly indoors except for when I'm shooting video. I never take it off auto brightness, I just push it up. I have it on increased contrast. Nothing more. I optimize it at least once a day and I clean my Cached file daily. That is the extent of what I do. I have accubattery app on it so I watch to make sure it truly is at 100% before taking it off.
I have no issues with SOT, oh and I always have WiFi on as well.
You say you get 6hrs but only 6hrs SOT with no combined time with it?
Hello,
As described in the Title the battery life on my Mi 8 is very poor. From the beginning it really wasnt that good and I could not understand how people could say it has really great battery life. Now as it gets older and the Battery degrades, it has become worse and i cannot even get trough the day.
AccuBattery says SOT of 3:20 and a battery capacity of 89%
Any suggestions how to improve Battery?
Thanks

Install a custom rom
I would recommend you install revolution os based on last version of miui 10
Clean flash this version

Well, I had similar problems on MIUI. First try to flash a custom kernel which gives you some tweaks, performance and battery update. If the battery is still very bad go to AOSP ROMs
Hey all,
Which kernel do you guys think has the best battery live or temperatures. My lg g6's battery is getting pretty old so temperatures and endurance isnt too great. Im running Havoc os 3.8 android 10

for my g6 h870 battery life is baaaaaaad, unless I'm running on android 7,14 (fulmics from) then the battery life is amazing. but on newer android versions like 8,9 and 10 screen time is up to 2 to 3 hours with a brand new battery, with old battery I was getting 1 and half hour of screen time. so my tip to you is to try fulmics rom, ofcourse a lot less functionality, but battery life should be very good

yeah, when i checked on battery consumption, it shows me that "Phone idle" uses around 50% of the battery. Ive tried many different fixes but none of them worked. This phone idle thing followed me almost on every single rom I install.
Yesterday I installed xtended xq (android 10) rom, and the battery life is back to normal.

Battery life is very good if compared to what I've had before(aquarios 8.1), UI is smooth, lots of functionality. i cant compare it to havoc os, its been long time since I've had it. but I've read in comments to that rom that its generally better than havoc.

On my g6 I get pretty good battery life too, around 4-5 hours sot, using havoc 3.8. I don't use things like aod or ambient display. Smart charging should be disabled. Even if I set 'stop trigger level' to 99%, I get much worse battery life. The phone is around 2 years old.
G6 H870 noticed if I charge battery to 85 % or 95% I get bad battery life. If I charge to 100 % I get good battery life. On Stock and Custom. I think something wrong with battery calibration.
Is somebody else experiencing it?
Hi,
I got my MI 11 last Friday (6 days now) / and am getting about 6,5-7 SOT with 60Hz, Dark Mode, FHD+ and 0 gaming.
I primarily use it for Spotify, Twitter, Chrome Browser, Reddit, Facebook etc. so nothing too demanding. Nothing is significantly high in the battery stats too.
This is way worse than on my Mate 20 Pro which I had before.
Is the experience with 12.5 better? What are your opinions/experiences? I am honestly thinking about selling it and getting back to the Mate 20 Pro :/
Thanks guys, have a good day!
Good for me in 120hz. Its worse than poco f2 pro, but crazy fast recharge
Similar experiece with last Xiaomi.eu

Yes, about 5:30 screen time...
xiaomi.eu is always with worse battery life than stock. That's because a lot of MIUI strict battery control policies are disabled by default because users find it hard to configure them properly per-app.
With xiaomi.eu_multi_MI11_21.2.3_v12-11 my Mi 11 battery life is better compared with CN official version.
Today mine got half day which is disappointing , with not much use ... MIUI 12.0.22. Chinese
Hi, I have purchased a new Redmi note 10 pro but the battery seems to be draining relatively fast. I am on MiUi 13.0.3.0 update. There are some screenshots attached of the battery page. Also I was able to find the Actual Battery Capacity: 4997 mah. Can anyone please confirm that this is normal or not?
What is the over night battery drain percentage? And how much screen on time do you get in one full charge (100%-0%).
I bought a new device 4 days back. I'm on the latest miui 13. I checked on accubattery and saw the actual capacity to be 4700 but that app has been notorious for incorrect measurements.
1. I'd like to know what app you are using to get the actual capacity
2. I can't say how much your drain is from the SS. I can tell my experience. Im getting around 7-8 SOT % with 120hz. Overnight drain is under 3-4% max. I have debloated the OS as well so that might help as well.

Over night battery dain is 2-3% at Max I have manually disabled apps from running in the background. As of the SOT I am getting around 7-8 hrs (100%-10%) 120HZ
The only things to do are debloat Miui 13
