Fast charging issue

I bought my mate 10 Pro last week. And since the very beginning, I've started to notice that while connecting for charging (original fast charger and cable). the phone drops out of supercharging quiet often. Though the charging starts off with logo and animation suggestive of supercharging, after a while (within 5 minutes) icon changes to normal charging.

This happens at least once in four times I connect for charging.

These are the different scenarios I tested when I notice that phone shifts into normal charging:

1. I remove and reconnect the charging cable: resulting in supercharging, this may or may not fail.. often continues in supercharging.

2. I just switch the plug power off and on: usually goes into supercharging.

From the above scenarios, I'm not able to pinpoint where the issue is. Did anyone face the same issue?

Should I take the phone for a replacement or is this common for all supercharging phones.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] madman_cro:
that animation is just for startup of supercharge. switch to magazine style unlock and check if there is supercharging text above clock on lockscreen. it usualy charges fast till about 80-90% and then slows. anyway if your phone is charged from 5-100 in about 1hr 20mins its ok. you can always order voltage and current meter for usbc and check.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] drseebu:
i checked the lockscreen as u suggested. If shows just "charging" not supercharging like usual.

i havent used any other charger or cable.. should i ignore this or should i take it for service?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] troublecro:
If u charge 0-100% in 80min he could write Santa Clause charging for all I care :D

But rarely use Supercharger....i never manage to empty battery before sleeping so I connect it to regular QC3.0 charger which charges slower, 2A tops....

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Huawei Mate 10 before depleting the battery.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

6 hours 20 min

Just got mine a couple of days ago and wanted to test the battery out.

I had 100% at 7.36am and then went out. I did some normal chrome browsing during that time. I also did the first big update. The translator one that was about 300meg. I downloaded around 500 songs to Spotify.

I got home around 4pm and this is where I really used it almost non stop until 8.34pm.

I watched some YouTube, a 45 min Netflix episode, a ton of web browsing, checking out all the phone settings, Facebook, and about 90 min of gaming (tower defence, top down 2D scrolling shooters).

I stopped at 8.34pm at 5% left. Phone has been on battery for around 13 hours.

Screen on time during the above time reported at 6 hours and 20 minutes.

I was pleased with that though doesn't hit much of the hype I've read lately.

Coming from a Nexus 6P, which my only complaint was battery life (3.5 your SOT on average) I'm happy and really my wish was to have a phone that I could use heavily all day without needing to recharge either at home or out with a power bank.

It's still early stages and I will keep monitoring.

I forgot to add this was at 1080p resolution.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] rjan22:
Sad that Moto Z Play beat this 4000mah on my Mate 10, I did lyft for 8hrs no turning off screen non stop playing Spotify and YouTube red on the background and using lyft app and Google map on the Z play and after 8hrs I still have 15% left on 40%screen brightness. The mate 10 only last 6hrs and 10%left. So lesson is don't buy Z Play then buy another more expensive phone. Bought mine $703 on ebay and I am using AT&T and I get same speed as iPhone 7 plus with regards to data speeds. I have a S8 too which I sold because of screen burn in, but the Mate 10 is a beast. It beats my S8 speed with regard to experience using the phone. And IPS is really the way to go if you use the phone how I use it everyday 8-16hrs of screen on time.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] tboy2000:
So after a few days use and after a 100% charge I get this estimated use. Hmmmn
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Jamdonut:
Were you using the phone heavily during those days?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] tboy2000:
Yes.

So far I get an average of 6.5 - 7hrs of SOT with average of 18-22 hours battery. Is that good?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] jemeljsh:
IMO, it's very good considering the screen size :good:

Did you try comparing SOT with QHD vs FHD resolutions? I understand that SOT won't really improve if you go for lower resolution..

but its still interesting to see the results. If its like 0.5-1h of SOT to a SOT result which on QHD is 6-7 hours, I would never go for lower resolution..
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Jamdonut:
I didn't try the higher resolution yet as 1080 for me is absolutely fine looking to my eyes. I came from a nexus 6p which was poor on SOT which I attributed to partly to the resolution.

Still it will be worth to try it at some point to see the difference.

My worst result with battery was today. 4.5 screen time but I did the most gaming and had hours of messenger chats with a 40 minutes voice chat thrown in.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] snipeerz:

SOT:

Now after 10 days, mine is usually around 5-7 hours, if I just surf internet, Youtube, using FB, IG, RSS reader and camera (usually without flash). I'm mostly on WiFi using also only 1 SIM at a time (the other switched off).

If using games, this drops to 4-5 hours max. Seems the GPU is burning through battery like butter, the phone is also getting somewhat warmer.

This is what I got so far.

8hrs 50mins 23s

* Max resolution set - WQHD - disabled Smart resolution toggle

* Social media, surfing, on WIFI like permanently all throughout the day

* Minimal youtube, no gaming (since I'm at work)

* first couple of days I was able to get around 7hrs SoT average

Not bad at all, gps on, Bluetooth on for miband 2, mostly wlan connection. Definately more sot than my s7 edge
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Shady282:
what update were you on ? 115 gave me a very good battery, but with 119 update i m loosing battery a lot faster !

Also, i m using only Full HD mode... but now i toggled smart resolution toggle, tho i m not sure how it really works.

I'm definitely impressed with this phone's battery life
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] benjmiester:
I'm curious about this too. Changing virtual resolution should have very little to 0 effect on battery life. Dropping from a QHD panel to a 1080p helps, but changing res lower on a higher res panel via software basically just scales down dpi. I mean in games this should make a bit of diff due to GPU load but in the general Ui it shouldn't really change anything.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] drkprd:
My bad....using the regular Mate 10...

was able to update to 119 I think a week before... I tested on max resolution with Smart resolution set to ON.

My observation: 1 hour SoT every 10% of battery spent

* WIFI switched ON

* typical usage: facebook (main and 3rd party app - simple for facebook), Instagram, youtube, browsing, downloads via playstore...

I still get an average of 8+ hours of screen on time. Of course less when I play games - average of 4-6hours. Coming from Mate 9, I still find this above average for my usage. I have almost the same SoT average with my Mate 9 - probably just a difference of +45mins on the Mate 9.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Krisbo:
I'm getting 4 hours pretty consistently in a day with my battery usually finishing the day with 30%-50% depending on how much music I'm streaming with my Bluetooth headphones. The attached was with about an hour or so of music. I'm not a mobile gamer but take many photos and videos of my little one throughout the day.

I always have Bluetooth, WiFi and NFC enabled too.

If I try to get through a second day without charging I usually will get 6 hours screen on. I can get 8 hours in a day or I'm browsing non-stop though.

I will say that battery life has far exceed my expectation especially coming from my LG G6 where I was getting 3.5 hours most days.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Krisbo:
I agree with this for the first 20%-30% of battery. After that, I tend to get less than an hour for every 10%. See attached.

[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] chronicfathead:
I have just looked, and after 4h12m SOT I'm at 62% battery. This Mate 10 Pro is much better than my Xperia Z5, which would have been around 15% by now.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] buckshot4:
Mate 10 pro: BLA-L29 8.0.0.115 (C636)

This is the first charge cycle I've had. No SIM card in it currently as I need to switch from Verizon to Tmobile first.

My question with these screenshots is whether or not this is good SOT for the Pro? It is extremely impressive coming from a galaxy s6 edge, but I have definitely seen much higher numbers from power users so I wasn't sure if this was any good.

Cell standby is by far the biggest drain here, but I don't even have a SIM card in it? Is it normal for this much battery drain due to cell standby when I don't even have service attached to it yet? I lost about 6-7% both nights with WiFi on, no airplane mode, no bluetooth or location. Could this drain be because it is scanning for reception even though there is no SIM, so it keeps trying to poll for service but can't get any?

Thanks in advance!
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] avatar_ro:
your mobile signal is bad, that's why you have a higher drain. the SOT is great given the aforementioned issue.

edit: try go to here: settings --> Mobile network --> Advanced || and disable the "mobile data always on" - this setting doens't keep the mobile data on while the phone is on wifi and when it's sleeps.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Arthur Hucksake:
Do you ever notice the quality drop with Smart resolution on?

I haven't noticed the drop, so either my eyes are terrible or it's not working? Lol
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] drkprd:
I probably notice it but can't say when I notice it. HAHA!

I stopped using the smart resolution mode - left it at WQHD - I think 2 days ago since there's a very minimal difference in battery consumption with my usual usage. If I just set wifi on permanently until my next charge and regular use (social media, chatting, browsing, a little mix of everything else), I can still get an average of ±8 hours.

[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] buckshot4:
Mate 10 Pro BLA-L29 International version on T-mobile

I apologize in advance this wasnt a full 100-0 run but this is 100-21 and I feel like the numbers still show how impressive this is anyways.

This is relatively light-moderate usage but has a couple hours of snapchat in there with constantly killing the app and relaunching it each time I used it. Also probably an hour of of playing music on Spotify through my car, though most of the music was already downloaded.

I am extremely happy and impressed with the battery on this thing, especially coming from a galaxy s6 edge that would get 2 hours SOT tops.

Even with heavier usage such as a few hours of Arena of Valor, I don't think I've ever gotten less than 6.5 hours SOT.

Usually on auto brightness too.

Let me know if yall have any questions

Edit: the SOT added from it charging was like 10 mins tops too if it means anything

Tried including attachment but by the time I hit 20% I was at 8 hours and a couple minutes of SOT. I have WiFi on, brightness on like 45% (no auto), sync off, GPS on.

Had I not charged, no question I would have been able to hit about 10 hours of SOT.

Primary usage was chrome, texting, music, and games.

I would say that the battery life is significantly better than the pixel 2 xl. Your missing out on a better software experience and monthly updates
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] tboy2000:
Can we assume that the Mate 10 Pro has better battery life than the non Pro, due to Amoled screen, dark mode and lower resolution?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] aerohp:
Coming from an aging Nexus 6, the battery life on my standard Mate 10 has been stellar. Only been 2 charge cycles but no complaints.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] tboy2000:
Not sure how this is possible. I can understand if you hardly used the phone but your screen on time suggests you do. Perhaps you don't have social media apps and have turned syncing off?

In average 5-6 hrs SOT with up to 18hrs before battery is dead.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] aerohp:
Sync is on but no Facebook/instagram or anything.. basically articles, whatsapp/Snapchat, YouTube, bleacher report (pushed sports news), xda, etc. The phone was charged overnight on Friday and the screenshots are from Sunday night.

Nfc is off, Bluetooth music streaming for maybe 20-30 mintues, brightness is set manually, wifi majority of the time with maybe 5-6 hours on 4g/lte.

Using pixel launcher with battery optimization turned off.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Megaromania:

Decided to test my Mate 10 Pro SOT

After more than 22 Hours off the charger (including a 9 hour sleep) from 100% down to 13% left, I managed to get exactly 7 hours SOT while doing the following (so it is estimated that if I run the phone down to 0% charge, It will last 24 Hours and probably reach 7:15-7:30 SOT):

Brightness 35%

Wifi- Cellular Data on

3 mail accounts syncing

Hour of Waze with Location on and max brightness

Hour of gaming (Asphalt 8)

Youtube 2 hours

Browsing chrome, Facebook, Instagram

Few Phone calls

Music Player & Soundcloud streaming via BT to Car/Headphones

Taking some pictures with camera and viewing them in gallery

Much more stuff I cannot remember

Hi Avi

How did you get 9+ hours ? Is it Mate 10 or Pro ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] dennis96411:
Made a new record the other day. This was under really optimal conditions (constant strong cell reception, Wi-Fi was on most of the time), but I always reach 8 hours regardless. I'm using a standard Mate 10.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] aerohp:
That's impressive! I'm not a heavy user so I charge my phone every two days. Last charge I was at 7hr SOT after a day and 15 hours. The battery on this phone is just fantastic.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] tboy2000:
What apps do you have running in the background? WhatsApp, Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, Twitter etc?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Brutos08:
What's your app usage?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
I am really confused how SOT is an indication of good or bad battery. I can get a 8-9h SOT if I use my phone all day with light use (using the photo gallery as material for my work) or have only 2h SOT in the weekend because I d'ont use it at all and it shuts down 40h after charge.

One thing I noticed is that even after some calibration (doing 100->5% and full charge several time in a row) the phone show 100% for a very long time even when using it, and it's really slow to reach 90%. Then it's quicker with a 2%/hour until 15% then the fall is really quick. It's really observable when I do not use it at all. I'll try to do a screenshot next time.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] madphone:
that's normal. OEMs tend to do it to prevent users to charge it to often when it just lost some percents, charging is not so healthy when the battery is full or almost full, same as emtying it completely.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
Ok, so, give them false information rather than knowledge... it's like a highway to idiocracy.

Here are a screen for a light usage (I forgot to screen the app usage, somewhat like 39% idle, 15% screen,10% other, 35% app). See the selected hour (it's the same for the rest of the graph), no app usage, but stil something like -2%/hour (calculated with the period from 50% to 11%) with screen off the most part on the time. Is it ok given the wifi, bluetooth always on, some background app like weatherbug and outlook, or you guys have something really better and I should try a factory reset?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
Hi, I resolved my battery drain mainly by cutting off the google service in background. Even if it actually works in background...

Well, with a proper management of the app authorizations, I get something like that:

Without taking care of saving battery, so, all connectivity on except for NFC I never use.

Pretty good battery life!

I have something like 9h OST when I do not play game and just read comics over the day ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] nostromo76:
Dear fellow Mate 10 user, what do you mean by "proper management of the app authorizations"??? Could you explain more and even describe what you did?

Thanks!
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] Hildr:
Hello nostromo76, I was talking about the app launch option in the battery settings. Only my mailbox and some messenger app are in full auto, for other, I selected if they can work in background or not, but I usually set OFF the automatic launch.

The goigle services were a huge drain.
[Huawei Mate 10  Real Life Review] suarez92:
My SOT

I got 5:54 of SOT and got left 24 percent of battery which I consider a pretty good, because of heavily usage (Instagram, Messenger, Viber, WhatsApp mostly and then browsing web, camera, calls, downloading apps from Play Store). Considering all of that after my first day with Mate 10 Pro (coming from Iphone 7) I am very very satisfied with this phone. Brightness is not full, a little bit over half.
