for those who gettin bad battery shoukd try miui v6 rom for z3 , its amazing! battery life is better than stock , i have 5 hours n 13 mins SOT in 15 hours with 50% left , and whats more amazing is that i have 0 wakelocks , absolutely no wake locks , with stock i used to have allot of wakelocks with google play services and damn ''checkin handoff'' , ty
[Xperia Z3 General] stanley08:
Well, what can i say? I can see the future :p

Depends on ur usage, brightness settings etc. It's decent battery life. But the thing is, Z3 has 'FANTASTIC' battery life, not 'Decent'. At 6hrs screen time i usually have 40%+ battery life. On 5.0.2 tho. 5.1.1 is bad for battery, i didn't last 2 days.
[Xperia Z3 General] Mr.Elmmyr:
Please PM on how you've customized ur z3 for that performance, and what rom ur using etc :)

Yet this is my best. Just happened yesterday. With heavy use (kind of). It is great. I captured these screenshots just after it reached 1% from 2%

Is it really normal or usually happened with you all where in 1%, the battery would last really long after it reaches 0%, I'm asking this because I'm curious about it and i haven't use my phone until it's completely 0% since first using this phone

I did this and i'm very regretful...

I don't know why but, am I the only one here who felt like 5.1.1 battery performance is far better than the one on 5.0.2 and 4.4.4?

I got like 5 to 6 hours sot with 4.4.4 and 5.0.2 with the same use as what I had everyday with my same phone, and i can easily get to 7 hours from now with 5.1, unlike on two earlier versions.

And by these pictures below, the phone actually goes to 8 hours sot, but i forgot to take a screenshot of it because when I want to do so, it turned off without my permission?

These are with really heavy use. So i can't manage to get 2 days battery life out of it lol ?

Without root and everything, just pure stock 5.1.1 .546
[Xperia Z3 General] AlvinZahran98:
Ikr.. My z3's worst benchmark in battery sot is two times my mum's s6's best battery sot :D i even used it much more heavier than what my mum did
[Xperia Z3 General] Luhccas-X10:
Just keep it!

My best result was with modded ROM, kernel, tweaks and a lot of things! (almost 6hrs SOT)

This result with Z3 was playing a LOT of games like Real Racing 3, Dungeon Hunter 5, Dead Trigger 2...

If i do this with S6, i'll get 3hrs of SOT, not kidding.

Insane battery life on 5.0.2

Experiencing awesome battery life so far on 5.0.2. Sony's update to 5.1.1 was nothing but awful in comparison to the previous lollipop version. I'll post some prints for you guys

http://imgur.com/a/JFaVt
[Xperia Z3 General] sherlock5545:
I differ. 5.0.2 was the worst update released by Google and Sony. On 5.1.1 the phone is finally back to the smoothness it had on KitKat and the battery life has not changed at all. I get the same I used to get on 5.0.2.

If only my phone didn't constantly wake up due to WiFi wakelocks, it would be even more amazing. It's not 5.1.1 issue, had it before as well. My Nexus 5 in comparison sleeps like a baby on WiFi.
[Xperia Z3 General] heywheelie:
Mine is the opposite, was great on 5.0.2 but after upgrading to 5.1.1 battery was terrible and had heat issues. Back to 5.0.2 and all good again. I'll stay on 5.0.2 until Marshmellow
[Xperia Z3 General] XMoDuLeSx:
5.0.2 is a joke :) the only thing that cause the problems is google play services,so try to tune them and your done ;)
[Xperia Z3 General] heywheelie:
Everyone to their own opinion and experiences :) I had no overheating issues with 5.0.2 but did with 5.1.1 same with battery. I'll leave "tuning" the google play services to the experts as they didn't cause any problems with 5.0.2.

I'm happy and I'll wait for mashmellow.;
[Xperia Z3 General] chandanbs:
+1 to heywheelie..

i too had terrible experience with overheating and battery going bust in few hours with 5.1.1. i have moved back to 5.0.2. very stable battery life. and no heating (except during in recovery mode while backing up or restoring).
[Xperia Z3 General] AdiSimpson:
so now iam back to kitkat, and great batterytime is back. kitkat also feels faster, dont know where lollipop should be faster.

with same tweaks lollipop suck battery too fast.

with kitakat 5 days + 8h SOT

with lollipop 2-3 days + 6h SOT

Hey guys. I get 3/4 hours of screen with my z3. There is no way I can get 5/6 hours of screen time like most of you. What's wrong with my phone?

I'm running 5.1.1, no auto bright, all day in 40% bright, no stamina, I don't really play games... Most of time I'm using what's app or chrome. No Google now and no ubication history.

New Z3 user - my battery stats & experience

Hi,

Just got myself a Z3 (D6603) and these are my battery stats - would appreciate your opinions please:

Firmware: Stock (non-rooted) 23.4.A.1.200 - Lollipop 5.1.1

Stamina Mode: OFF

Sony & Google Bloatware disabled: Google News & Weather, Podcast, Xperia Care, Street View, Google Play Books, Google+, Hangouts, Social Live, Talkback, Facebook Xperia, Xperia Lounge

Location/GPS: Off

Brightness: Auto Adjust 0%

Wifi Active 80% - 4g/3g rest of time (bad reception so radio switches back and forth between 4g and 3g all the time) - by the way other phones had good 4G reception where this Z3 struggles.

Usage:

Xperia Default theme (with changing color wallpapers)

Autosync 1 Gmail account and 1 Exchange mail & calendar

Bluetooth off most of the time

Web browsing with Chrome: approx. 1 hour 30 minutes

Youtube video streaming: approx. 30 minutes

Streaming Radio via TuneIn Radio app through Speakers with max volume: 40 minutes

Phone calls - 30 minutes

WhatsApp messaging running all the time with light use (no FB messenger no FB app, no Instagram running in the background)

MicroSD card inserted and running several apps and carries some pictures

Camera used to snap several pictures (no more than 10)

Probably forget other uses (Play Store Updates, Browsing album and Google Photos)

No Games at all

Used Greenify (non-root version) to manually close apps that are not required (except for important stuff like WhatsApp, Timely etc.)

I stopped measuring at 8% as I didn't want to stress the battery.

Managed to squeeze 6 hours SOT and battery life of roughly 28 hours total time.

Must admit I expected more according to all the reviews I read about the Z3 but I understand that most were done with KitKat and moving to lollipop has changed things for the worse in terms of battery drain.

Special Thing to note: After about 20 hours I noticed HUGE draining of battery by Google Play Services - When it got to the point it surpassed even the Screen usage I killed the D**n process and cleared all data and cache - then restarted it and the process never drained again - hope this doesn't repeat in the future - it is a well known and documented bug (google fault apparently).

Tell me what do you think - next test will be with Stamina mode ON

Hey !!! wait a minute - just rebooted after the test and got a message saying I have a new update waiting - 23.4.A.1.232 - will give it a try also.
[Xperia Z3 General] alon3232:
Update: Did software repair - clean installed latest 23.4.A.1.232

Firmware: Stock (non-rooted) 23.4.A.1.232 - Lollipop 5.1.1

Stamina Mode: ON - THIS IS THE MAJOR CHANGE AS LAST TIME I TESTED WITH STAMINA OFF

Sony & Google Bloatware disabled: Google News & Weather, Podcast, Xperia Care, Street View, Google Play Books, Google+, Hangouts, Social Live, Talkback, Facebook Xperia, Xperia Lounge

Location/GPS: Off (except for 15 minutes running NAV application)

Brightness: Auto Adjust 10-20%

Wifi Active 90% - 4g/3g rest of time (bad reception so radio switches back and forth between 4g and 3g all the time) - by the way other phones had good 4G reception where this Z3 struggles.

Usage: Very Minimal

Xperia Default theme (with changing color wallpapers)

Autosync 2 Gmail account and 1 Exchange mail & calendar

Bluetooth off most of the time

Web browsing with Chrome

Phone calls - 20 minutes

WhatsApp messaging running all the time with light use (no FB messenger no FB app, no Instagram running in the background)

Camera used to snap several pictures - On for few minutes - DRAINS Battery like HELL !!!!!!!!!

Probably forget other uses (Play Store Updates, Browsing album and Google Photos)

No Games at all

Used Greenify (non-root version) to manually close apps that are not required (except for important stuff like WhatsApp, Timely etc.)

I stopped measuring at 0% as phone auto shut off

Managed to squeeze 6 hours and 15 minutes SOT and battery life of 36 hours total time.

This is very strange as I previously got similar SOT and "just" 28 hours total run time with more active usage.

This time STAMINA Mode was ON all the time with all battery saving options in Stamina mode turned ON

I expected much more staying time with STAMINA mode ON - actually got 8 more hours only due to the fact that brightness was 10-20% while in the previous test it was on Auto Adjust 0% - amazing how such a small increase in brightness kills the battery.

My impression is very premature but after the clean update to latest firmware things are almost the same in terms of battery drain - even slightly worse for me.

Next test - I am now running a battery calibration process (I do not hold any hopes here - just doing it for the first time) and will report my impressions of battery after that.
[Xperia Z3 General] heywheelie:
I don't think it matters what you do, lollipop firmware can't match kitkat in terms of battery life.

Personally I think SoT is overrated. What's more important is how long the phone lasts between charges using it normally.

Everyone uses phones differently. I'm a fairly light user and have no problem getting a week between charges. I'm on 4.4.4. I found 5.1.1 was a killer on battery. It would randomly use up to 90% battery over night just sitting on the kitchen table whereas the norm was 3%. Waiting for marshmellow before upgrading again.
