For me is pretty fast, test:

1. Reboot phone and wait for auto screen off

2. Double press Power button

3. Capture photo using VolUp key

Time needed between 2 and 3 is only 1sec
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] baselthebeast:
not so fast for me after the latest V2.2 update
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] DarsVaeda:
I'm using these steps too and it takes hardly 2 seconds. I stopped at 1.91 seconds.

Unfortunately the camera app is a real annoyance if you are in the wrong country.

I traveled to Japan which has the restrictions to always have a shutter sound seemingly. So the option to disable it was gone after logging in a Japanese provider.

Now I was that annoying foreigner standing in a nice quite place making terrible noise while taking pictures...despite everyone else didn't.

Okay I know it is the law. But do they have to turn the volume to maximum for it?

Even more annoying is using the panorama mode. Because it will make a shutter sound for EVERY picture it takes whilst. And thats several per seconds. So suddenly you turn into a machine gun photographer.

Imagine doing that in a temple or museum...

Couldn't be more embarrassing. I had to cover the speaker as best as possible to quiet it down.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] dillerdaller:
The builtin Nokia Camera app is an utter disgrace, compared to what back.rider555 showed is possible on that hardware with his gcam port.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Nokia 7 Plus can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

takes about half an hour or so as far as I can remember 8/10
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] yellow_eyed_demon:
Charges really fast, thanks to 18W charger. Although on cable connected to computer, very slow
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] evronetwork:
You compare 9v 2A(18w) vs 5v 0.5A(2.5W) PC usb? ...obviously it's slow with a pc charge

From mathematical standpoint 30 mins for 0-100% is impossible with 18W charger, let me make it a bit clear

It has a 3.800mAh battery or 3.8Ah for short, which means if it had a 5v 3.8A charger it would take 1 hour if the charger and delivery system(cable+chips inside phone etc) were delivering 100% efficiency. Now 5v 3.8A is 19W charger. For half an hour we need 5v 7.6A or 38Watt.

According to Quick charge which is present in this phone it can be charged at 9v 2A or 18W, so even if the phone has 100% efficiency it would take a bit more than 1 hour to complete 0-100% but because each system can't deliver 100% efficiency calculate to 1hr and 1-20 mins give or take

P.S. half an hour, wish but ain't possible unless we have 9v 4.2A charging with 100% efficiency(or 5v 7.6A if you prefer) - Still going to get this phone soon(if price drops to my desire)
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] SafiZaf:

Drained it fully so it died...

Then 0 to 53 % in 35 mins flat...

I think the last 10%( from 90 to 100} takes a big effort.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] vishuxperia:
Just tested with LG V20's Fast Charger of 18W.

Fast charging works. confirmed.

But not with OnePlus 3T's Charger.

Will check the same with 5T's Charger and Update.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] grubber24:
Did you try charging it with the Oneplus Charger? If yes, could you give us the result in terms of charge time and heating? TIA
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] vishuxperia:
Yes OnePlus 3T, 5T does not work.

Also I was charging N7+ from 18% via LG V20's Charger and it got overheated and started malfunctioning. But thankfully there was a circuit breaker and protection circuit in LG's Charger which saved it. Device is working fine too. Now I am using the nokia charger provided in the box as none are working.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] K.khiladi:
So that means if something happens to the current charger provided with the phone, we will have to buy a Nokia branded charger and cable or there would be issues. Hmm
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] vishuxperia:
I am usimg my one plus 5T's cable and it is working fine...
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Dr. lele:
I'm using an old HTC charger and a anker quick charger and all work fine.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] alv3st3r:
Well, my Nokia 7 Plus charges quite fast but it gets very hot while charging. Today it overheated and started beeping.

I'm using original Nokia charger that came with the phone.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] dBKiller:
I also meet this using oem cable. With nokia original cable is no issue.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] rhoosain:
I just got this device Thursday not a Dual SIM device

It charges fully in about 1hr and 30mins of charging adds quite a bit of power to the battery

if we use a PC it takes ages
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] ksonparis:
is it safe to use fast charge daily?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] sameermehta2:
Can we charge the device by a standard charger having 5v 1 amp rating with the USB type c cable plugged into it?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] NahuelMS:
Yes, i use mine from a tablet at 5v and 1.5A. You can use any charger if it is 5v or if it is turbopower o fastcharge.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] magiQx:
I also use my old LG's charger. 5v [MENTION=4149147]1.8[/MENTION]A. Im not really that into charging speed. One thing i noticed is that on both chargers when reaching 100% it says charged but still charges for another 15minutes before the charging icon (flash) disappears from the screen. Has anyone else noticed this?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] gioyocho:
Charging with pixel fast charger

15%-100% it need 1:40 hours if i do not touch the phone

[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] alphar:
I got just about 7 hours sot
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] kaimyns:
mostly wifi or lte?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] alphar:
Mostly WiFi. Oddly enough my phone just shows "4g" not 4g LTE
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Dr. lele:
Yesterday I got 5 hrs SOT with over 1 hr of Pokémon Go and still 24% left. Display was on full brightness in auto mode because the sun was shining like crazy. That alone used around 30%. After that I set up my Android Wear watch and did some downloading of games etc.

I think when simply browsing on WiFi/4G way more is possible. Will post if I have some figures.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Dr. lele:
These 3 pictures are from today. Mostly wifi, 1 hr commute, 40 mins Pokémon Go, a lot of twitch and Reddit.

Gotta say, I am very impressed.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] vahtmestar:
I don't have screenshots, but on first cycle I got 5h45 min SOT( setting up the phone, social media, youtube, phone calls etc.) and 35% battery left when I left to sleep. First impressions are great, and I'm really liking this phone so far.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] kaimyns:
From 95 to 25.

Wifi and LTE casual browsing, lots of instagram, some streaming to chromecast.

Battery is fine.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] kaimyns:
It is purely wifi right?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] K.khiladi:
7hr 15 min of SOT in 16hr 5 min of usage. 4G on whole time except the 7hr at night during which the battery dropped 6 percent.

Will update about how long it can go.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Pinchyneilprince:
It's absolutely bonkers.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] :
My result - heavy usage with navigation, taking pictures, changing countries and only via LTE, 3G, 2G
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] aswin244philip:
I am having massive battery drain. The launcher, phone app and voice calls are the main culprits. I have just charged my phone so I will be posting my stats when it drains below 20%

I am mostly on lte and a medium user. I am getting only 4.30 to 5 hrs of sot when the phone hits 15%.

10 mins of calls takes 4% of phone and voice calls. Is this normal?

Thanks in advance.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] K.khiladi:

My screen on time is 5 hours. And battery drains to 27%. It isn't bad, but it isn't half as good as what others are getting.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] hippoguynil:
I'm getting terrible battery level life. See attached screenshots. The phone is also very warm and still discharges when plugged in via USB. Do I have a faulty unit? Any tips gladly received. I've reset it, formatted the SD Card (from my old phone). I'm at a loss.

Just got the device yesterday & its even giving very less backup than my previous device, Can't Understand Why its happening

Very less battery backup & sot
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] K.khiladi:
You just got the device yesterday. Let the device get stable for a day or two and go through few charging cycles.

Got really great Battery Backup & SOT
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] DarsVaeda:
This is my replacement phone which I use since the 25th.

The original was up to 4d of battery life and almost 12hr of screen on by average.

Unfortunately I forgot to take a screenshot.

I hope this device will also go up by time too.

I didn't root the device and use Greenify with aggressive doze and some other tweaks (of Greenify) through ADB.

I'm also using the Lux app for adaptive screen brightness in dynamic mode.

Additionally I not let it go down below 20% before recharging. I would love to not charge it above 80% but it's a bit annoying without being rooted.

Very impressed and happy so far with the old and new device. I'm not a heavy user so I'm really in love with the battery life.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] grubber24:
4 days with 12 hours SOT? Seems too good to be true!
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] DarsVaeda:
Keep in mind I'm no heavy user so it's no youtube or games or anything stressful involved. It's mainly checking mails, instant messaging and taking a few photos. Additionally I keep my screen very dim even in brighter light with Lux. It's about 30% in normal light and even lower in darker surroundings.

I'm sure you can do it too!
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] besony:
Can't wait to have Andro P - officially.

On Oreo (May 1 update), I am just about getting 4-5 hours SOT which is 1 day's usage.

If I don't actively play around with the phone (gaming+install-uninstall cycles of new apps + reddit/yt), only then the phone is fine 1.5~2 days on full charge.

If I run it through above stated use, it barely runs 1 day (or just shy of 24 hours)

Resting battery drain is about 1% every 1.5 hours.

----------

What about y'all?

Sony.

Edit:

You charge it only until 80%? Not until 100?

That's the first time I have heard of this.

I understand not letting it drain completely, but not charging it fully, is new to me.

Please explain a bit more.

Thanks/.

EDIT:

Never mind,

I found why:

[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] DarsVaeda:
That article is a bit misleading I think. At least it credits the correct source.

Here is more about the topic: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

I rooted for 80%-20% option as I found it difficult to recharge before below 20% (but that was my old phone) and because I want to prolong the batteries lifespan.

You might want to root for another option.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] NokiaAndroid:
I get +9 hours SOT

Using my nokia 7 plus on at&t USA, mostly wifi, I get 8.5-9.5 hours SOT

Hi there. Are you on rooted device?

---------- Post added at 02:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

Hi there. Screen shot seems to be different from stock one. Is it stock battery app?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] DarsVaeda:
So far I'm unfortunately not getting back to that state with my new device.

I'm now on the average most users seem to have here:

~2d battery life with ~7hrs screen on

I must say though that my usage has a bit increased and I'm on LTE+ now, before 3G.

Also it seems some options do not work anymore (maybe because of the android updates?).

Although Wifi is set to always stay on, it definitely turns of while sleeping. (not sure if LTE+ takes more power though).

Also it seems other adb commands used to enable more options though not rooted with Greenify also won't work.

I hope we will be able to root soon ?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] shamllakh:
8 hrs SOT

one issue i faces:

Hey guys!

I am getting really bad SOT even though i disabled every single app background activity and location services.

I dont know what else to do. I am on oreo august patch.

Here is a google photos link of 3 screenshots about my usage:

Thanks!

So far so good. 2 days without charging and still got couple of hours left. Forgot to take screenshot later
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] id.goPLAY:
So, my battery life is great. I always disabled Bluetooth and NFC, Google App (just to test the battery), location is turning off too (turn it on when needed)...

Normal usage; emailing, listening music about 2h, make few images, facebook & instagram (notifications off), display brightness at 50%, wifi and mobile data always on, calls and sms...

Will test with same options including Google App and assistance on.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] NahuelMS:
Try to disable Heartstone, it seems that it is eating a lot of your juice. If the problem is not solve, install Gsam Battery Monitor and give it permissio throw ADB so you can have a better idea of what is happening in the background.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] yesman89:
Android P latest beta.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] grubber24:
Impressive! Have you restricted many of your apps? I never get so much on the latest P Beta 4.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] yesman89:
Hey,

I only restricted apps which i normaly not use in background. e.g. Google + or snapseed. Maybe i get such good battery life because at home and at work i use wifi.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] PixelsUser:
Hi,

I just got my Nokia 7 Plus a week and from 100% to 36%, my SOT is roughly 4 hours with 4G on and location is off.

Compared to the other usages here, mine doesn't come even close.

Is is it normal for this phone or is my battery just faulty?

Also, last fully charged was 15 to 16 hours ago.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
Around 8h, seems good to me
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Sowa96:

hello i bought yesterday this phone and at the moment i have 25% of battery with 5h14min of screen. I started from 90% because the first 10%(100 to 90% i update my phone with may update 441MB and june update + or - 74MB)in this 65% i downloaded my apps and update the others and install the july and august patch. My question is "is right to see google play and play services with 12%(1°app) and 9%(second) of usage of battery at the first usage?".

I ask because i see in this topic most of you have 7/8 hour of screen time

Sorry for my english i hope you understand. Thank you

How is battery life on Pie compared with Oreo?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] NahuelMS:
For me is 2 hours less SoT sometimes more. Really buggie, specially on 4G.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Heisemberg_91:
Which is your model and how this it's possible? You were on beta program before to receive the final version?
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] NahuelMS:
TA-1055 and it seems that bluetooth and 4g destroy battery. When i am in wifi without bluetooth the battery is good. Even the system says that the services of google and the music player are drainning the battery. :(
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
i was really happy, Oreo was best, im in the same usage, little game, some instagram, facebook, whatsapp, outlook, not really all the time in phone, but now in pie, there are days im getting 5h SOT ;/ , 100% > 90% in 20min, before the same 10% i could get 1h SOT, 50% was 4:30h, so thats when i reach 8h or at least 7H SOT, now in pie im really update, hadly i get 6h :(:(:(
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Heisemberg_91:
Same here.. do you think an hard reset could improve battery life? October patches didn't that.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
I don't know man, I wanted to try, but no without be sure it's gonna work, cause I have alot of stuffs, sometimes I want to go back to Oreo, battery was really amazing but now, let me know if you do hard reset and it works please.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] NahuelMS:
I did a clean install with factory reset and for me is the same so don't bother with that. Also it seems that disabling automatic battery makes the battery last a little longer.
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
Hey bro, good news, it sucks to hard reset the phone all the time, but 4-5h SOT not worth, so i did wiped data, and from 50% > 0% i get right now 5h28min, so, i can see it gets better , probably gonna get 6-7 or even 8h again next time when my phone gets 100%, cya .
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Heisemberg_91:
Good for you and happy to hear that worked..I am still considering this option, just doing some tests before trying hard reset..Just disabled adaptive brightness and Google App working in background (cause was draining a lot for the usage) and I am having pretty good results so I still don't know what to do..you Can see the attached image
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
6H and 30% left yet, its amazing, so you dont need to wipe data, hell no, its great ! btw i never used adaptive brightness, only adaptive battery, i read somewhere that if you turn this off it could drain even more so...but i'll check about google app, thanks for your reply !
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Heisemberg_91:
Yeah that's good, these are Oreo results. Just consider there is a lot of standby time ( 7h of sot on 48 h of total usage) and my usage is a lot of socials, Chrome,WhatsApp, youtube..no gaming e only WiFi..yeah adatcive brightness sucked, changing the brightness every minute..Dont know what is happening with Google App, used just for 1 minute but drained 14% of battery..
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
oh, i thought was in Pie, but still, 6H still great..even Oreo or Pie, i use to gaming a little bit and even in Oreo was 8H SOT, think about update to Pie then cause battery for me its worse then Oreo, but after this hard reset look like its better but lets see how it performs now..
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Heisemberg_91:
No sorry just misunderstanded..I am on Pie too, I mean these are good results like I used to have back when I was on Oreo. Hope you can have better battery life after wiped data
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] antoniotrodrigo:
haha, i see, well, you're doing great, so far im getting better results here, its 95% and 27min SOT, maybe i'll get around 1H to 10%, wich is good cause before was 20min SOT and already 90% so, something wrong e.e , but its doing great so far
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] vivek rawat:
Hey anyone noticed the fast battery draining issue for no reason.... After the android pie update

And the screen freez issue is also there.....

I am still running october security patch i think its a bug in the pie update but when will new update roll out we r not even getting November security patch .......
[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Frankenhooker:
My battery life is slightly worse, I'm putting that down to adaptive battery settling. I'm still getting well over six hours SOT though. Roughly about 50 min SOT per 10% today so far which is great.

[Nokia 7 Plus Real Life Review] Hazardous Pain:
Hi all,

I think most SOTs on this thread are skewed and do not represent a realistic use scenario. People who are getting 8h+ of SOT have a low figure of "unplugged hours". For my part, I have a pretty good battery life with this phone with 6h20 more or less and 48 hours more or less of "unplugged hours", which better reflects a real life situation.
