I've had the phone for about a week now, and so far I'm quite pleased with the battery life. I have no issues charging it every night, but I definitely want a phone that will make it through a whole day of use without having to worry about the battery. This one finally delivers! With my HTC M8 I found myself having to remember to plug it in during the day or carry around a battery pack to avoid it dying by the evening.

Wauw, your cellular network signal during daytime is very weak and that REALLY sucks the life out of your battery!

So there is much room to improve!

Hi there. New fellow 10 owner passing around. I am very happy with the performance of this phone. I had a Nexus 6P before and it was a miracle if I got over 4:30 hours of screen time. The 10 has no problems getting to 5+. I reached 6 hours on the first full cycle after updates and restoring apps. Don't think it's even necessary to root.

My battery life has been abysmal since i turned bluetooth constantly on. Is this normal for bluetooth to drain battery life on HTC 10?
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] drumz0rz:
Tell me about it... That's at my desk at work. It's awful. It's like a sit in a dead spot, and I'm not even that far from the building windows! Luckily I have Wi-Fi to get me by but yeah, just searching for the signal is really draining my battery.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Snah001:
I have constantly WiFi, BT and Lte radio on but no drain here.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] gelo01:
I think the 10 can reach 7+ hrs of SoT on light to medium usage. 5.5hrs SoT + 2.5 hrs of calls yet 14% still remaining. I can squeeze another 30-45mins of SoT out of it but i'm really sleepy already. ?

Currently using latest LeeDroid + CleanSlate kernel + latest PnP mod. Just pure awesome! ??

Rumor is 4g uses more Battery?

Nope at least here in Taiwan it doesn't!

This one is 3G only, about 30min connected to WiFi.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
Settings - About phone - network - signal strength ?

How many dBm's when using

1)4G

2) 3G

Also mention which bands you use for them in Taiwan.

There's reasons why it ain't using as much battery ;)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Haldi4803:
It's not a comparable Benchmark as I did not do this in the same Location. But it shows that the difference is about 10-15% and not more. Miss 4g because it drains slightly more? That's crazy.

P.s

How do you know to which Band you're connected on a HTC device? On Sony you needed a special System App only on English Firmware.

Here's my battery usage for today. Pretty heavy usage day for me - listened to music while mowing, then took the kids to Disney on Ice and used the camera a lot (4K videos and JPEG+RAW photos).
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
10-15% more battery on 4g you mean.

Who is your carrier in Taiwan ?

Bands tells us whether you're on a 3 digit or 4 digit frequency. The difference is indoors you get a better signal with 3 digits which means more bars and less drain.

[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] racingmatt1:
Well I have to use auto brightness because I'm outside most of the time and I'm using power saving mode too. The problem I think is that my phone according to gsam is not deep sleeping as much as it used to (before: 85-90% deep sleep (Now:65-70%). The before deep sleep was with location on battery saving mode Wi-Fi on when in range and mobile data with 4g always enabled w/w/o Wi-Fi being in range. Now location is the same mode but mobile data off when not in use along with Wi-Fi when not in range. Can you help me out please ,I'm not rooted fully stock. Here are my screenshots from the past hour with CPU deep sleep of 65-70%. Do not have any from before but my before setting as listed above should help figure out what's wrong now.

[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] km8j:
With Netflix streaming primarily and about 25% brightness, I had 6.5hours sot and 30% battery left. About 4.0hours of that was Netflix vs other regular usage. Today, I had extremely heavy usage including 100 pictures and some sporadic videos including live backup to photos. This had me trending at about 3 hours sot which is pretty reasonable given the heavy camera and background use
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] devsk:
After 2 days in my hands, with low to medium mixed (couple of calls, navigation, music, whatsapp, youtube) usage over 28 hours, I have 3.5 hours of SOT with 42% juice left. I have put it back on the charger now. I think these numbers will get better. Will post the screenshot once I have gone through couple of full charge cycles. Overall, very impressed with the battery life and the device in general. Everything I had hoped for upgrading from M7.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
You said 3hsot/17 runtime on wifi only

I don't see wifi on in your images, instead i see LTE and then 3G. So you're on data. For someone that is outside most of the time the signal seems weak which surprises me as i'd have thought you'd have the best signal possible as there are no walls around to absorb anything.

What does wifi on when in range mean ? do you manually switch to wifi or does it have to detect it. If there isn't any continuous scanning then it should be ok.

Doze does not kick in unless the phone is completely stationary. If its in your pocket and you're walking about it won't come on.

17h of run time on a QHD is decent with auto brightness and weak signal. LCD's are most efficient at 30-40% brightness if you're outside then its likely running much higher than that.

Better to post just before you go on the charger, this is too short a time to say anything. Doesn't look like you're streaming anything.

I'm not having the best battery. Get real low by close to mid day. I rarely use Skype but when I do, it is battery drainer and the phone gets real hot. BUT the charging is crazy fast. In around 10 mins it went from 31% to 70%
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] km8j:
My wakelock issue is gone after the ota. Off the charger 10 hours, about 1.2 hours of voice calls, 1.5 hours sot and 73% still. Brightness maybe around 40%. On wifi and 3 accounts syncing. Pretty good battery
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] JohnCorleone:
Since I have unlimited everything on T-Mobile I only use Wi-Fi when traveling or something. This phone does really well with LTE signal. It has been a week since I had to start fresh and GSam still shows me averaging 6 1/2 hours of screen time overall. It seems like every damn app Google makes pulls data or something while not in use on Wi-Fi.

That is insane battery life, I am getting no where near that - at the moment I am only getting 4 max SOT. The best I've done is 5-6.

With all my devices, I've always had too much active time as per my example in attached images. How do you guys get it down so low compared to your screen time?

If I am leaving bluetooth on and when I'm just connected to my device in the car it seems to be causing a lot of wakelocks

I'm running my carrier firmware - 1.80.841.1 so not sure if that has anything to do with it...
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:
Wi-Fi is active the entire 16+ hours your device is active. You could most likely be suffering from the Wi-Fi drain on the 10.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] racingmatt1:
So the more active time you have in gsam=less SOT?
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jbm76:
Pretty much, it will keep your device awake...

I'm having trouble with google services keeping it awake, just turned my location to battery saver. Will see if this helps! Also bluetooth when connected to my car BT, I drove for 25 mins and it kept my device awake for 12 minutes.

I am pretty sure my M8 never was that bad. In 8 hours, my device has been awake 18%. Normally on if I am going to get 5+ SOT I need it to be under 12%.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] racingmatt1:
Then why is my active time way higher then my held awake time and wakelock detector percentage? http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/57b7b12647dd0/Screenshot_20160819-202146.png?

Is your screen on full brightness? What about location, is it on high accuracy or battery saver?

That seems pretty bad battery life... Or are you in bad service areas?

[MENTION=2586080]andybones[/MENTION]

I flashed Elite kernel and my wifi is still active the whole time, are you toggling your wifi off when you aren't using it? Have you changed any of the advanced wifi settings? Like the sleep options?
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] racingmatt1:
Screen brightness is on Max auto, location is on high accuracy for phone locator purposes, and most of the time I'm in a decent area not considered bad service. Also power saver is on all the time and I'm stock and unrooted with google now turned off.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:

How did you achieve that 3.5day run with nearly 5h sot. Are rooted or got some tweaks., what setting for display and others.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] JohnCorleone:
It really seems that the HTC 10 gets the best battery life in strong LTE areas. I go back and forth between the all time best HTC custom ROM (ViperROM) and using systemless root, Systemless Xposed., etc. I make a lot of calls and texts, take tons of pictures, constantly listen to Spotify Premium on "Xtreme Quality" and I have all of the popular opinion best music apps like Neutron, the new PowerAmp, etc I also have a Sling TV and Netflix subscription and I have been averaging over 7 hours plus on every charge. My overall per charge hours has dropped from 1 hour and 17 hours to about 30 hours because I am trying all of the custom sound mods and I have a TON of apps installed. .particularly the ones where I can record my guitar playing with drums and bass added in through a couple of great apps that allows for the isolation of track's. I have backed way off of the social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram when they started major sensorship and signed data sharing contracts with Homeland Security and or the NSA. I am THRILLED with 7-8 hours of screen time as long as I clear a full 24 hours. If you are rooted, the paid Greenify add on that works best with Xposed has several custom enhanced Doze profiles and they help too
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] JohnCorleone:
It's very possible in great LTE signal areas and if you root and use something like Greenify with paid add on that has custom improved Doze options. I have spent far less time on Facebook, Twitter, etc since they started censoring political opinions and facts and also since Facebook decided to make a big partnership with the NSA and/or Homeland Security. I use Spotify Premium on the Extreme Quality setting and have the best audio apps as well as a Sling TV and Netflix subscription. I used to average 1 day 18 hours with always a minimum of 7 hours of screen time. Lately the overall battery cycle has dropped to around 30 hours because I am testing every custom music MOD and recording my guitar playing with drums tracks and bass from and app called "Tab Pro" I can even take that app, dump the vocals and guitar then plug into one of my guitar amps and do one man jams and just rock out! Lol. I say disable any Google apps you don't use and if you are rooted stock with Xposed, use the Greenify paid add on. Of course it's difficult to use anything after using ViperROM if you unlock the boot loader and s off makes life so much easier!

You have to figure that curve was after over a day on standby so the steep drop was indeed using my device hard but it doesn't change the fact that an HTC device got more than 4 1/2 hours of SoT.

My experience without WiFi was actually very unpleasant - the full 3 carrier aggregation that was implemented killed my phone. This is a good thing though - wifi now finally uses less power than LTE like it should have from the start.
