[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Theking haha:
*i own an s7 edge exynos, i have a question, i notice that every time i wake the phone up and then do my things for only a few seconds and then lock it again, it will decrease by one percent? Is this a normal behaviour? Is waking the phone up drain the battery? I have aod on and on 4g and wifi normally and i can get 4.5hr sot, max 6h, is this common or is there any problem? Last time i can get 8hr even 9hr sot on s7 edge, i cant achieve this after nougat update and the sot is half of what i got last time but i heard some people can get 8h sot on nougat, any help s7 or s7 edge user?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Theking haha:
Help! Deep doze mode 0% what to do?i reckong this is the cause that my standby drain isnt as good as last time. My usage drain is still quite good,1% in 4-5min so about 40 min in an hour, is it because of battery degrade as well? Or is it because of no deep doze mode?

My S7 Edge Exynos is also 8 months old.

Stock Rom 7.0

Stock kernel

Brightness 50% and WiFi and Sync always ON, no Bluetooth, no NFC, no battery saver, I use Position 10% of the time for Snapchat, I'm always on airplane mode(I don't have sim card).

I use fast charging.

From 100 to 1% in a single charge:

I get 6-7 hrs SOT, while browsing on samsung internet, using snapchat all day and some Messenger.

I got 12-13 hrs SOT while browsing on samsung internet only.

I got 10-12 hrs SOT when I watch videos on YouTube only.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] bodomfan:
How do much sot do you have proof
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] high_voltage:
I have two HTC M8 that are 4y old and still lasts full day and atleast 5h SOT. Original batteries.

Samsung puts lower quality ones for real, but still, the main reason for most to crap up the battery is quick charge. It's on by default and the charger that comes with the phone is QC capable. I turned that off before the first charge and my battery after 1.5y is still going strong.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] bambam1978:
Just got rid of my Samsung I hope I have better luck with the HTC U11.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jshamlet:
Samsung's batteries aren't crap - they are at least as good as anything on the market. The problem is, as you state, that they default ship every device with quick charge enabled and supply a QC capable adapter. Convenient, but it kills batteries fast. If you turn it off, I would be willing to bet even money the average Samsung supplied battery will perform comparably to batteries supplied by Apple, HTC, Sony, etc.

I'm not a Samsung fan either. My last phone was also a One M8, and I loved that thing. (Still do, but the battery is toast) I didn't upgrade until I wasn't able to make it through the day on a single charge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] D.Shadocx:
This is my 100-1 % result in a single charge, but as I said I never use Bluetooth and I'm on airplane mode since no Sim card.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] wesley29:
I've had my S7 Edge Exynos for 15 months now and noticed a very big drop of in battery life in the last 6 weeks and had 2 updates on that time at least.

In normal mode, I get 7 hours sot and with some battery saving like full hd, 10% less brightness and reduced CPU, I get 8.5 hours average. Best was 10 hours with those battery saving settings at the end of September.

Now recently after these last couple of updates I am getting 4-4.5 instead of 8 and some days 3.5. I'm pissed off big time. My main concern about my phone is good battery life and now it's gone to trash so suddenly. Now yeah, you will get some slight degradation over time, but this is just BS from Samsung and their updates.

Now out of desperation, I factory reset the phone after backing up my stuff on the smart switch program on my pc. This restoration did work, but there was a major error. After you enter your Gmail login it usually restores your apps and data nicely for you, but my phone did nothing, instead stalling on a solid white screen. Took 6 hours restoring all my passwords and stuff because of this error.

Since reset, there has only been a tiny increase, not worth the hassle. I'd take it to my Samsung repair centre, but they sneakily only cover battery issues for 1 year and the rest of the phone for 2 years. With batteries being non removable now too, that's a sly stunt to pull on their loyal customers.

Has anyone put an older Samsung firmware on with Odin and got back their battery mojo? That's my last resort before dumping this phone for something else and it will be a while before I get Samsung again.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] wesley29:
https://www.androidpolice.com/2017/...ill-degrade-less-quickly-than-the-galaxy-s7s/

I saw this article about the battery. Samsung claims that the S7's battery will retain 80% of its capacity after 2 years use and the S8 has improved on this to only degrade to 95% in the same time.

Using accubattery today, it says my 15 month old S7 Edge has 65% capacity. Based on that 2.33% degrading per month, I should have only 56% left after 2 years use. A far cry from 80%. FML
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] defybest:
Mine is only 10 months. Are you using custom rom and kernel?

I always underclock to a conservative 2ghz, undervolt and all that tweaks to maximise juice, max 7 hours SOT. Until recently I switch to stock oreo beta rom. Still acceptable imho. Maybe I will face those issue that all of you are having some months later.

Hi ... I want to share with you the best combination I've ever used [Batman ROM v1.5.0 + BatStock Kernel v1.4.5] ... I tried may many ROMs and Kernels, but that combination was the best ... I advise u to use it. I applied FHD Resolution + 40% Brightness all the time.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eezay:
The capacity of my now 23 month old device is 2,333 mAh according to AccuBattery. :crying:

This means a capacity of 65% and a degrade of 1.5% per month. Better stats than yours but anyway horrible.

This leads me to not recommend a samsung device to anyone. The nearly 4 year old htc one my father uses has a better battery performance.

So after 3 weeks with BatStock i switched to Moro kernel and i must say its sooooo good.

Today was a heavy day for me. Wifi on throughout. AOD on for some time. Bluetooth headset on more than half of the day. Watched a 2 hrs movie on about 75%brightness. Some youtubes here and there. Browse d internet alot. And ofcourse whatsapp and telegram nonstop. And few phone calls.

For some reason all those apps dont reflect on my screenshots but that's how i actually used the phone today.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] s7edgefan:
SOT is decent when used at a stretch like watching 2 movies back to back etc but if you take the SOT with mixed usage with hours of idle time then the SOT is way lesser.

Does it really help? I have my device optimised for battery, Display set to full HD, auto brightness OFF, auto sync OFF, location OFF, WiFi scanning OFF, all applications are updated from PlayStore and Galaxy Apps, most applications background running is set OFF, always sleeping is ON for all apps other than WhatsApp and Messenger, network 2G and sometimes in Airplane mode, using black theme and wallpapers, vibration feedback OFF.

Suggestions please.

Witout battery save

Hi,

A have stock oreo. I use it without cpu 70% setting and my sot is now around 5-6.5h. I think the 70% setting really made some gains in battery, but it broughed occaisional lag. You can try the cpu save setting, but that means the phone comes slower.

When i used custom rom and kernel in my lg g2 and g4.. It was clear that for battery you need optimized kernel. I am not a player so custom kernel would give me more sot. But i dont wanna root i have 1 year 2months warranty left.

In the picture its close to the max out of sot. I think the phone is aging well. About 1 year of use and about -1 hour in battery life.

Seems like battery performance is getting better after having the phone for a week
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] J.Biden:
Got my Edge (Exynos) yesterday (Thursday), and I couldn't be happier with the battery life. It had 60% when I powered it up the first time, used it for a bit and plugged in the charger. Unplugged it around 22 (10 PM) that night and tried to "kill" the battery by simply using it constantly. That didn't work.

4 hours in and only down to 70%, I'm going to sleep. I chose not to charge it over night (to check the over night drain). It drained 1% over night (around 8 hours). So I had 69% battery left when I woke up this morning, and I tried to kill it from the start. I didn't manage do it until around 20:00 (8 PM), so let's just say I'm really really impressed by the Exynos version. I've had Qualcomm devices in the past, but this is a type of drain, or the lack of it, that I haven't seen on a Qualcomm device. I guess things get a lot better when the OEM has complete control of the hardware (but not the software of course) but Samsung controls the Exynos, not the Snapdragon, so it makes sense that they'll be able to implement their own SoC better than a third party SoC in its own devices. Just look at the Snapdragon version for example.

Overall, bravo. Samsung nailed it this time around, and I'm officially impressed. This one is definitely a keeper.

Hi, i think you must get rid of the Facebook app by uninstalling it completely as even if you don't use it, it drains your battery. Try metal for Facebook, it's a much lighter app for Facebook (but don't accept it to autostart as it will drain your battery) or se Facebook via the web pages.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] danny772:
Hi, I have disabled the app and use it through chrome.

I've noticed on days where i sit at home and play asphalt the whole day .. i get 6.5 hours of SOT

On days i go to work .. i got 4G on the whole day .. a bit of snacpaht & facebook & CoC & chatting ... around 3.5 to 4 hours of SOT with 20 % battery left

Im guessing this is normal and if its not .. It lasts me a day quite well .. so im good =)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] mset1234:
Yep it’s normal as when you stay at home, your phone doesn’t constantly search for a cell signal as it is fixed. When you go for a ride in your car, the cell towers change and your phone keeps searching for them and connecting, this drains your battery a lot.

I get 4 hrs max SOT on my Verizon S7E. No special mods or adjustments made to babysit the battery. Disabled a few apps like NFL, Amazon Music, Samsung Milk, Slacker, etc. I would love to get 6-8 hrs SOT. Haven't tried factory reset or uninstalling Facebook, which according to battery stats doesn't drain battery at all. Not sure why everyone says Facebook is a battery hog.

I've owned a: Galaxy S II, Galaxy S III, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 edge, Galaxy Note5, iPhone 6s Plus, Galaxy S7 and now, the Galaxy S7 edge. This phone has been the best phone in terms of battery life that I've owned.

- Moderately high usage, not heavy though

- 70% - 100% brightness most of the time [sometimes over 100% with auto-boost kicking in]

- <40% brightness under certain settings now.

- Like half the day on LTE, switching into Wi-Fi at certain points

- Occasional YouTube streaming

- Minor gaming

- Playing music

- A good deal of web browsing (Stock Browser is more optimized than Chrome)

- Using applications that required an Internet connection and location refreshing/GPS

- No Adaptive Fast Charging used, just Cable Charging

I disable Samsung Adaptive Fast Charging/Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 if I'm stationary and not crunched to do something. The phone seems to hold its charged battery life over a longer period of time, in addition to preserving the battery's lithium Ion cell longevity.

Secret in getting more SOT

Hello community,

I just want to share my battery stats with you, My G935F (Exynos) updated to Oreo and despite i didn't see any cell standby battery drain, considerable a percentage of the total battery consumption was missing after a full charge. and the total sum was way below 100. I also notice a huge decrease in SOT, for a max of 4 - 4:10 SOT at best, in a mix of WIFI and 4G usage (never flight mode on).

So I downgraded and flashed the latest version of Nougat and right now (latest Nougat AUT build,Switzerland), i enjoy 5:30 SOT at least for 4G and some WIFI and more than 7 hours if mostly in WIFI.

So, ditch Oreo, it just doesn't worth it.

Stock Samsung Nougat, mainly browsing-messenger-youtube. Battery is 1 year old.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] RBTT:
This is the first phone i don't charge overnight.

G935F Oreo. I don't turn off Location, WiFi, mobile data.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Pallonaado:
How old is your battery? That is a good sot and standby.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] RBTT:
< 1 month ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Pallonaado:
I recommend to take off quick charge option and avoid heat if you wanna make it last as it is as long as possible. The battery is amazing in the beginning.

Anyway enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] RBTT:
I will.

Thanks!
