Guys, Guys. Check if the mobile is being remained awake even when the screen is off. This is how it should be ideally.

[IMG="battery graph"]https://dl.xda-developers.com/4/8/1/5/4/5/3/Screenshot_2019-09-05-12-50-05-289_com.miui.securitycenter.png?key=GYS1Be9R31B3gbd0xI9_HQ&ts=1567669068[/IMG]

Your awake like is likely going to be continuous, which explains the battery drain. Some app is keep your device from going idle. Now trust me you can't know which app by just looking into battery app consumption because it doesn't show the apps which are keeping device awake. You can install a third party app to detect which junky app is causing this problem. Or like me, just get rid of the apps which you are not using. For me, the battery improved more than 2 folds. Please post screenshot of your device like above.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] ClementNerma:
That's not always the case on my phone (see the first attached screenshots), also Wi-Fi Bluetooth & so on are off when I have this "battery drain" problem (see the last screenshots).

But it's true that sometimes my phone shows it's nearly-always "awake", do you know any way to find applications that keep the phone awake?

Ok, got a 2.0% per hour a night again.

I have attached a number of screenshots. If someone can have a look at this and give me some advice I would be thankful
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] Viki94:
Nothing is abnormal with this battery drain.

It is caused because your network signal is weak and your phone is constantly searching for a better signal to lock on to.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] ggezboye:
Mine's pretty much healthy standby. During last weekend, I never had to charge my phone in our house because it has very long standby time. I only opened it for texting, random picture taking, etc. I only open my wifi for it to sync to my local cloud (Nextcloud). Other than that, wifi is off. And oh, we don't have internet access at home at the moment, due to technical issues, that might also be another thing to consider.

I also manually disable apps from starting from background in the permission settings, the apps that I do not want to be notified for especially FB and Messenger.

My phone was stock, bootloader never unlocked. Global stable 10.3.7.

This phone in its stock ROM is pretty good. Only the third party apps were the problem battery-wise. Remember that apps ask for permission during first install, if you just say yes to all then you're up to high battery consumption. Check your permissions!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] ClementNerma:
It is abnormal because for my part it happened suddenly, before the battery was decreasing a lot slower (in the exact same places with same signal strength).

I installed a few days ago the beta of Pixel Experience (Android 10) and now it's back to normal (in 2 hours the phone didn't lose a single %). Same thing with the Google Play Services which were eating battery at an enormous speed if I enabled mobile data, this bug doesn't happen anymore on PE.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] lukesan:
That reply was for me but I fully agree. At my work I have full signal strength, exactly the same thing.

Maybe I need to try Pixel Experience but I am afraid to switch over since swapping MIUI roms already got me in trouble with the encryption the day before yesterday.

I seriously need to look into that btw.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] ClementNerma:
Oh you're right I quoted the wrong post ^^'

If you have problems with encryption, just think to disable *ALL* security options before flashing (so disable schema / password / fingerprint unlock). I stopped having problem with encryption only when I removed completely these securities before flashing anything :)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] lukesan:
Well, got my 'old' Redmi note 5 pro out of the drawer again and stuck an active sim from the same provider in it. Both phones lying next to each. The Poco F1 is drawing 2.4% per hour and the Redmi note 5 pro I charged about 13 hours ago is at 97%. So do the maths.

I seriously love the phone, as I do with the Redmi note 5 pro, but the drain on my F1 is just crazy.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] jddcef:
I monitored the network traffic on the wifi network that the Redmi 6 was connected to that has the drain issue.

It seems to be communicating constantly with a random laptop over the network.

It's keeping awake because of some Spotify traffic.

So I believe this is caused by media apps that try to do this whole shared network controls.

It can be related to other media devices on the network too.

There's a Google Home Mini on this network, which has this "allow other devices to control the media playback".

So turn off Spotify and Google Home devices and see if that helps.

The network broadcasting features must be draining and always keeping things awake.

Poco f1 battery drain other apps

Hi, can some one help me identify the "other apps" that is responsible for such a huge drain

So do I. "other apps" drains my autonomy (32%). Help me. I have reset my phone but the problem continues.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] |>/\nte:
Ever since I got a second sim in I've started having issues with cell standby drain. I'm keeping my second sim off, but even then I see pretty unnatural usage on cell standby (percentage varies from low 20s to low 30s, somethimes even more). I've tried a couple of things since this screenshot was taken a couple of days ago:

Wiping cache and data from google play services, rebooting the phone and charging it

Changing the network type to LTE/CDMA/UMTS auto (PRL), then to LTE/WCDMA

I was thinking about trying a cache wipe from recovery, or a factory reset, but is there anything else I can do before trying a factory reset?

The xiaomi poco phone will make the rich and snobbish iphone x users gasp with envy when they look at the front but breathe a sigh of relief, disputing their greatest fear that you are rich enough to buy an iphone x, if you accidentally show the rear part of the phone.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] SH3H1:
In contrary it is the display part I’m not a fan of.....Huge chin and wide notch is the only stuff i didn’t like that much in this device
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] thesoupthief:
It's horses for courses - personally I put all my phones in plastic cases for protection so I don't give a rat's ass about the back. Don't like notches so I'll be using an app to "square off" the top of the screen. Big chin? Not so far as I can see.

It's gonna look exactly as good in a case as any other phone would.

Very happy with the design
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] SH3H1:
Yeah gonna hide the notch as well !! But square off will not give the curvy edge symmetrical to bottom i hope,there is in built option to hide the notch though,but in apps and games the edges becomes flat,maybe can overcome with a software patch(??)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] sanjay0501:
Notch can be hidden via settings directly , u dont need a special app for that.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] SH3H1:
Exactly what i said there,But still while using some apps (PUBG as an example) the top portion is not symmetrically curvy as bottom
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] SingularityHRT3:
The curves in the edges are too big and sometimes some system element or a part of some app disappears behind the curve...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] Voyage Maker:
does this happen even when the notch is hidden by going into settings?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] baggino:
it does not have the percentage of the battery

Honestly I don't think it's an issue. You just have to slide down to see the battery percentage.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] babaroga73:

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] meltbanana:
though I didn't want to do that I bought a glass protector cause GG3 isn't scratch proof ? and I don't know how it happened but mine got a scratch, maybe from dust in my pockets ...

the good thing with this screen protector is:

it solves the polarization issue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] Triparadox:
Assuming we do not take price into consideration, the build material (polyesther plastic) definitely does feel cheap and not luxurious like other smartphones. Notch is not something you can't adapt after 1 month of use though.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] wGRV:
For me smooth interface with good touch screen is most important than IR cam. Wish they invest more on better touch screen with Amoled display instead of IR camera.

Chuck it in a case and who would know it's substantially cheaper! Build quality is pretty much the same once it's in a case + screen protector !

Very comfortable in hand, hardware buttons are well placed, for the finger print scanner, some may have had that concern due to proximity to the camera lens but that fear may not be true as the scanner is recessed a bit and easy to locate.

Included Case

The case I got is very poor quality and can be easily removed not perfect fit. Does anyone have same issue. It's very loose fit feels phone ccan fall from this if you don't hold it tight.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] sharathnakka:
This included case is for temporary use until you buy one. At this budget don't expect for the quality, just enjoy the performance of the device :silly:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] aditya1999:
The in hand feel is great. I have owned Mi4i before, and honestly, i have no issues with the polycarbonate back, it does wonders for gripping, and compensates the weight for that huge battery underneath. My only two grievances with the device are it's weight ( coming from a MI5 here, that was 129 grams), it kinda hurts my hand when using for longer periods of time. And the second is that palm rejection is poor, besides that, its awesome for the price, the buttons feel clicky, and the device stays cool
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] sayHello21:
In hand feel is just like any other phone out there. You won't feel the unpremiumness that much at all.

But yes the device a bit on the heavier side.

PS: get the screen protector.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] nC3rtaintiy:
Been using the phone for 72 hours now. In the beginning the in-hand feel was quite difficult since i am jumping from a 5.5in and felt heavy too. But now have gotten used to it. The stock case feels and fits quite bad, going for a new one asap.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] PD2091:
Can I ask a question that some of you may feel very basic!

Why should the screen protector be used and by "screen protector" do you mean tempered glass?

If yes,

If it is to prevent scratches, doesn't gorilla glass 3 take care of that?

My nexus 5 had gorilla glass 3. I had used a tempered glass for some days but felt the touch feel inferior and hence removed the tempered glass and didn't have any scratches until the phone died after 2 years because I messed up the battery circuit.

If you mean back cover then I can understand, I had used pu back cover with nexus 5 and it survived 2 falls with that. Poco f1 on the other hand might need a strong body armor, I'm not confident about the glass as it's a taller display and edge to edge 2.5d glass.

Having said that, if the edges of back cover protrude up around the scren and wrap it, so as to protect the screen (as in case of my nexus 5),when placed face down, will the full screen gesture control still work on Poco f1?!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] sayHello21:
I drop my phone a lot. Me not that much but sometimes my sister or her children get hold of the phone and you can imagine the rest. I have owned 4 phones all broken in the first few months. So any kind of protection is most welcome here. And no I'm not worried about scratches, that'd be silly.

I don't know if the protrusion would be that far up so as to interfere with touch.

Any suggestions how to protect the 2.5d curved edged screen from drops?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] watsinaname:
I am getting my tempered glass tomorrow, will revert about the impact it has on gestures
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] nC3rtaintiy:
I put on a real cheap (₹100) tempered glass which doesn't even cover the whole screen and the touch response is great.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] jsanket95:
Hi, Is the rear of Poco as soft and grippy as the Mi4i? I believe it will be same for all the colored backs, Blue black..

I love phones where you do not need to apply cover and just a screen guard works! (Tantrums of a OPO owner!)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Real Life Review] aditya1999:
Yes, its matt finish, just like the Mi4i. Its not exactly soft, the phone definately slips, but its better than metal and glass. You can use it without a cover, but I reckon the back will pick up scratches, i went for a camouflage skin for the back, makes it grippy and still keeps the phone just as thin( i mean 8.8 mm isn't exactly thin, but with a cover this phone would be hard to hold).

Nah. Touch response without one is simply something I am not willing to give up, maybe a matt lamination in the future, but nothing for now.

if you came from a phone with 100% ntsc or an amoled you will be disapointed, the reds and greens are about 50% off in terms of accuracy the only accurate color are the blues.

You can tell this is where corners were cut. The color accuracy is mediocre, it leaves a bit to be desired. Reds are somewhat washed out, greens could be more refined, and whites have a blue-ish tone.
