You've obviously recharged multiple times or just left it on a black screen. Really misleading.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
After few days of use, I really love this device. I got 4:30 SOT with 50 percent of battery left. All of that got improved after update, Im on C432 BLA L09, Im not sure but i think this is March security update.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] avatar_ro:
to have a good standby time you should not be connected to a WIFI network at all I have found, which sounds stupid I know.

For example at home connected to a 2.4GHz network drains more battery on standby then on a 5GHz network. So I have decided to not use WIFI at all and to block all the background traffic on the 4G network and I just let the apps that I want to use the network, in my case i let only whatsapp.

settings --> wireless and networks --> mobile data --> Data saver.

My SOT dropped from roughly 6h to 3,5-4h lately, I don't know why I don't use my phone for gaming, even uninstalled all social media lately to focus on my bachelor's thesis. It's basically WhatsApp, YouTube (just 15min a day) and chrome that I use. So strange.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] vherong29:
same here, after i did battery calibration my battery is drained faster with 4-5 hrs sot now, with 3-4 hrs only with full online gaming, but prior to that, im having great battery life with minimum 6hrs sot up to 9 hrs sot max! why did i listened to those youtubers! crap!
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
Same happened to me in last 2-3 days, it was working fine until this happened. It could easily hold up to 5-6 SOT but now even 4 is questionable. And for the record I dont use 3g/4g mobile data, i dont text all the time, standby now drains up to 8-10 percent. I dont play games and i dont use full brightness.... Hope they could fix this with an update.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] madman_cro:
on 137 update atm. little less than usual but still going strong. wifi, 4g, gps always on and all battery optimizations on auto except my clock widget witch ia on manual. but it looses about 10 % over night so il have to see that one.

I got a issue with facebook app, that it costed me too much power than SOT. Does anyone meet the same problem?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] madman_cro:
well thats about 14% of battery for 1hr. its not too bad. i dont use it cause i find it easier to make chrome shortcut for facebook on desktop.

[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
i am on 137 also (c432) and I have various readings from my battery life. Althrough I use phone almost the same every day (calls,messages,viber,instagram,whatsapp,messenger,mail,camera) once i get perfect sot and once very poor sot. Some examples are below on photos. Is that normal, how is your battery and sot?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] vagelis74:
I have the same problem, not stable optimization of emui
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] madman_cro:
i almost always get about 7-8 hrs on 137. i get less if i have lots of screen off time and dont use phone trough the day. guess that is normal. sceeen off could be better, but if i press play on youtube and get back 8 hrs later it would still be on
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
I never got even close to 7 hours of SOT, maximum of my device is 6 and a half :crying: ... Hope next update can fix it, if i see next update (i change phones a lot like socks):eek:

Hello,

I've a mate 10 on .132 while playing (game MOBA) arena of valor I'm losing about 24% per hour (it's a lot !!)

But when I let the phone idle mode I'm losing not much.

Also I've installed AccuBattery (4 charges) and it said my battery size is 3570 mAh instead of about 4000 mAh.

Can anyone install the app and use it for 1 week to see what the battery size ?

My old phone, the battery seems good, my sister phone also but why with this phone I only have 3570 mAh ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] 0alfred0:
Don't trust accubattery, look at the history tab. Calculate what they show you charged and used. It never adds up. The phone uses different voltages for different charging States so there is no one exact mAh count since it means different things on different voltages. (500 mAh on 12V is double compared to 500 mAh on 6V)

For me it often says things like:

Charged 75-90% (1050 mAh)

Used 90-75% (760 mAh)

My battery usually is around 3750 mAh but this app is very vague. At the beginning it showed over 5000mah due to me only supercharging in low percentages like 5-65% where it's super fast. So if you always charge slow (upper percentage or while gaming) it will show you less.

Hence, I don't think that 24% an hour is bad. It's an online 3d game with a lot of things happening. 24%/h means 4h sot while hardcore gaming. Other phones only reach that with normal use
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] troublecro:
Mali chipset(3D) is biggest consumer and heating dispenser. When I play 2D game it doesn't warm up at all and consumption is barely bigger than usual.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] ogy_j:
I've a LeMax2 and with it i'm doing 25%/hour 3000mah (snapdragon 820) (on accubattery i have 2700 left)

My sister avec a LePro 3 (4000mah battery and snapdragon 820 also) she is doing 1h45 for 25% (on accuBattery 4000 left is a new phone)

she also have a Redmi Note 4 also with 4000 mah and she can play 5h without stop

When i bought Mate 10 i though to have a good battery life while playing. It's better then my old phone also because my phone has a battery with 1.5 years

Otherwise not in game the phone has a good battery life

Yeah on my 3D game, the phone get hot, my friend playing with a O5T said his phone is not hot
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Chilled26:
This is on my Mate 10 Pro and it has the best battery life I've experienced out of all the phones I have ever owned. The last two phones I had were the Nexus 6p and the OnePlus One.

This is what I got yesterday

I'm using 2 sims

Wifi only, no data

Gaming, YouTube, surfing the web, Facebook and Instagram etc

Display set to wqhd

I'll repeat the experiment with display set to FHD
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] unbreakable1ali:
Second day

Same settings except I switch to FHD

This is what I got.

Almost from 30 to 50 minutes increase in SOT
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
You are lucky then I never got even close to 7 hours not to mention 8 hours of SOT.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
I see some abnormal SOT in all your posts with 7-8 someone is getting 9 hours. I cant get past 5 sometimes even 4 hours of SOT!!!?? Is it only my device or is there more?

I dont use 3G/4G data, I dont play games, I use my Mate for chatting calling (social media) and camera to take photos. Can you help me with this issue? What is your phone setup?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] troublecro:
SOmething is wrong,I see Instagram eating your battery a LOT. This is mine from today,45min of Shadow Fight 3,Twitter & tapatalk,few messages and mails. WiFi mostly,Auto brightness
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] unbreakable1ali:
Don't let Instagram run in the background

I had the same issue, once I turned it off I got a better battery life
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] 0alfred0:
Your screenshots imply otherwise if the battery keeps getting drained like this you should get at least 6h sot.

It also depends on how much you use the phone. And how it is in standby. Social media apps eat a lot in the background. And not only that, if you use your phone all the time for short periods like your screenshots imply, your phone never enters sleep mode it always stays active and all apps keep draining the battery thats why no specific app shows up in settings... its simply the fact that the phone itself stays active all the time.

When i am hungover and i have to chill in bed all day with my phone i can watch netflix and use social media a lot and get like 8h sot in a period of 10h

When i use my phone normally during 2 days i have like 2,5h sot per day i only get around 5h sot too but in a period of 36-40h
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] madman_cro:
yeah. SOT doesnt mean nothing without taking in account the way u use the phone.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] troublecro:
And brightness lvl too...
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
Hardly mate, very hard. Only once i got 6 plus hours. If I use for a long amount of time with screen on it drains even quicker. Only when i reboot It, It improves but only a bit, so it doesn't make that difference. When percentage drops to 50 It drains much faster.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] 0alfred0:
thats strange. i am always surprised to see how good the battery holds up when i use it a lot. for me it mostly drains because i dont charge it for 1,5 days normal weekday i dont have more than 2.5h sot per day (i also have an ipad for media when i am home). i mean, who really stares at his phone 6 hours on a normal day? who has this much time lol, thats not normal. I am just happy, that i dont have to worry about the battery throughout the day. even at the weekend when i go out i simply charge it from 35 to 75% in 20 minutes while i shower.

for me that is what counts, reliability and peace of mind, knowing that i can juice up hella fast. just stop comparing numbers.

3500mAh (s8/9+ which has poor battery life) to 4000mAh is only 14,5% increase dont forget that, no wonders to be expected.

PS: maybe there is something wrong with the battery tho in this case u should get it checked...
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
I disabled health, and turned off some High speed LTE mode that was turned on in some advanced network settings (In my country there is not 4g even 3g is poor af) and made minor improve in battery life, still Instagram drains too much battery in standby and use. I think I could get 6h of SOT if I used it till 20%.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] troublecro:
Dude you're bound to 8h of SOT. Over 1/3 of battery left

The screen time on this phone is actually quite good compared to S9. You can get more out of it by using the lower resolution and eye comfort mode.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Dr3amTeam28:
When I bought my Mate 10 (non Pro version) I was getting 4.5 to 5+ hours SOT at around 50% battery life left. But after doing the 136 (C636) update with the June security patch, I can only get 6hr-6.30hrs at max of SOT with less than 10% battery life yet. At FHD, wifi when available. I still think 6 to 6.5 hours is good but nowhere close to what I was getting before the Software update that came with the facial unlock. Any thoughts why less SOT post update? How can I get it back to the more superb battery life?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] cez10:
I'm on BLA L29 8.0.0.145 C432

had like 2 updates since I got the phone and as most of you the battery at the beginning seemed best, however, I've recently tried to play around with the power saving as it extends the life quite a bit and so far I'm at 40% with 4:30 SOT with the following settings:

Autobrightness on

Mobile data or WiFi always on

GPS on sometimes

Vibration and sound on

Data saving mode on

Automatic resolution

And using shortcuts ive overrided save mode autosync options to be ON, as well as having the screen off time set for 10 minutes instead 15s

Using social media most of the day and about 1h music, Pretty happy with this settings :)

Hello,

I've got mate 10 with 136 too

Battery seems better then 135 and memory too

But I don't know if it's because of reset factory

Do you have the same issue?

night at 1hr 11mins SOT with 90% battery left. Thats about a a little over 1hr of SOT with 10% drain only which is pretty impressive. Browsing, Instagram and Facebook with the following updated settings

Wifi

65-70% brightness

Turned off mobile data alwats on when I was on wifi

Noticed only 2% drop in battery overnight (Woke up at 88% Battery)

FHD

Data Saver AND Power Saving modes are all OFF

Currently Im at almost 2hrs SOT with 78% still left in the tank. Im trying to get a consistent healthy battery with these and push my usage more to see if i can get close to 7 hours or more of SOT before I need to recharge. Anybody else having great battery life and post your settings here. Thanks!

Mate 10 Pro, It was the same in almost every version up to 145 including it. Dunno bout VOLTE....I'm not using it.

Only thing that can drain battery quicker is bad signal/phone usage in rural areas. Then it decreases significantly.

I bought the Huawei Mate 10 a few days ago and this is my very first usage from 100% to 4%:

I'm still adjusting the settings, installing applications, copying data, testing all features... The battery lasts almost like on my old Xiaomi Redmi 3S but with much stronger hardware.

EDIT:

Forgot to write the setup...

- WiFi or LTE

- auto brightness

- GPS a few minutes

- sync 1 Gmail, 1 Outlook, 1 Evernote, 1 Firefox

- Viber, WhatsApp, Skype

- stock launcher (I will install Nova later)

- no power saving or airplane

- charged via notebook because of copying data

Yeah that's great,if I didn't have a fair share of gaming I would get even more. I think 12h is a real possibility but who would stare 12h a day into a phone? :D
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] andrei80:
Mate 10 Pro, firmware is EMUI 9, v161.

My screen usage data is funny. The game I played a lot today shows 4:12h, total sot is 3:37. I also used Facebook, messenger and WhatsApp and browsed the web. Phone was charged to 100% last night, no charging after that.

Also, my SOT seems always a bit low, never reaching over 6h, while many report 8+(the recorded SOT from battery management). I use dark theme in interface and all apps that can do it, apps mostly auto battery management. Had the phone for less than a month and updated to Pie the same day I bought it. Never really felt like I don't have enough battery for 1 day, but this is bugging me a little.

My wife getting 12+hours SOT during 2 days on her Moto E5 plus doesn't help my ego, either ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
The built-in battery meter is like you say "funny". I could reach 80h sot since it was not resetted if not charged to 100%, not sure if it's always the case.

Use an app like accuBattery for far better tracking, and you will see the bad with this phone is not the SOT but the off screen drain that is around 1%/h and is huge crap like this. I should have stayed in .128 where I had 0.3%/h off screen drain.

Plus, on screen time doesn't mean anything, you can have 15h sot by just using a lightweight app like webtoon or just having the screen on without doing anything, or having 3h sot by play pubg for 3h or having 0h sot by never turning on the screen and just waiting the off screen drain do its thing whintout charging it for 90h.

That mean your SOT will decrease if you use heavily your phone or if you don't use it a lot, since your battery will goes with screen off. It's what happening the weekend for me, I don't charge if for the all weekend, reaching 40-50h without charge, but with a SOT of 3h. Then I reach a SOT of 8h when a use it for 8h straight with light apps. On one hand my phone last more than two days with a "crappy" SOT, on the other hand I have a "good" SOT but the phone don't last a day.

Accubattery will give you a more accurate screen on drain, screen off drain, mix off the two corresponding to YOUR usage and time and speed of the drain for each app. Just need to use it for a week or two to have accurate mean measures. (And will explain you charhing your battery to 100% will decrease its lifespan, that's why the led turns green at 90%).
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] andrei80:
Yes, the standby drain is pretty bad since pie update, just like you said. Also, last night I used YouTube through a Bluetooth speaker for 4+h and it was still at 56%. That is continuous use. Standby drain hurts battery life quite badly...
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
Standby drain is bad even in Oreo, I'm still with the 157 (c432). Maybe I'll go back to the 128(c33) that was the only firmware with good battery. I upgraded for the game mode, but it's a total joke.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] domy_os:
Do you live in area with weak signal maybe? I'm on Pie too and there is no standby drain at all, battery drops max 2% over night. Regarding screen on time, I agree with you, it can be 3 or 10 hours, depending on usage. Camera app has very big battery consumption, unbelievable, almost like playing some game.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
Not really, I've always full signal reception. But just having 4time more drain with other firmware with the same setup proves something is wrong with it. Well, I'll juste wait for the camera review of the Nokia 9 and to change it, I don't like photoprocessing with huawei phone :/ It's sad cause everything else is good.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] theplayingdead:
Why does screen on time is different between GSam and system's default app? I took the screenshots at the same time and both of them showed 0 SoT right after I unplugged from charging. Also is the draining of the battery normal according to GSam? Thanks!
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] lil_kujo:
In my opinion and for my usage this phone has great ? and an outstanding screen on time. I have owned several devices including a note 8 exynos, p10, m8,Nokia, etc . With all of them specially the note 8 idle drain was very bad and sot was just not good at all even with all the tips and tricks to save battery, the mate 10 pro which I have now is the only phone I've had that has amazing idle time and great sot with out tickling anything. Same usage pattern and same networks , of course I has a bigger battery then all the other devices but if we look at energy management from idle it's very good, i get a 0.2% per hour with a 2% drain in almost nine hours over night. While with my note 8 I would get between 10% and 8% drain over night, had to root that device and tweak it because idle drain was just plain dumb. Any how he are some of my screen shots I am just and avg user don't really play games and i use more social media and browser etc.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] andrei80:
That's very good. For me, idle drain is more than 1%/h... Full 4G signal, one sim, full WiFi

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Huawei Mate 10's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
