Did a reset after October update not that was necessary since i had good battery after the last tweaks i had made on the previous reset, but i wanted to start fresh once again and change a few things.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] maxwell0312:
Reset after October update.

Stock theme with dark mode on.

Stock email and whatsapp are what rely on push notifications the most.

Adaptive battery on.

Power mode is optimized.

Adaptive power saving off.

BxAction is set up to completely disable Bixby.

Wifi 60% LTE 40% of the time.

Adaptve brightness on.

AOD off.

Snapdragon version
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] maxwell0312:
Not sure if this helps anyone, but I think Adaptive Battery takes a while to "adapt" and it doesnt play well with Samsung's Adaptive Power Mode, which automatically switches between Optimize and Medium Power modes. One thing I notice is that if you switch the Adaptive Battery off, and you want to turn it on again, the phone will take a while to settle. So, if you want to use Adaptive Battery, keep it on.

This is my result for second day with the above settings.

I'm using only whatsapp, sometimes YouTube and Instagram. But i have a big problem with whatsapp, It have a big consumption of battery... I don't know why...

I just restored Google Drive's backup from my old P20 Pro to Exynos s10e. Do you guys think its gonna be better to factory reset and do fresh start doing manual configuration settings and manual apps install? My battery life is mediocre.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] maxwell0312:
How often do you back up whatsapp? I ask because I got like 2 gigs and I had it backed up weekly instead of daily. If I use mainly whatsapp, then I can get at around 8hr sot, could be worse or better depending on cell signal.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Johniscool:
Hm, refreshing - someones got the exact same setup as me. Only difference here is that my power mode is set to medium. My device was overheating, a limited cpu speed seemed sensible - as this means lower voltages etc etc. You have around 7% left here, with the same amount of usage my device would have about 20% left. my everyday sot is 8hours minimum.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] matrix009:

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] sikemsokam:
sot

Hey guys, how are your performances overall after months of use and after all the updates? I'm thinking of buying this phone in these days seeing that it's actually the only phone worth buying,, but some of these screens are really terrifying me. I'm using an iP6 which is 5 years old and i've changed the battery about a year and a half ago, but i easily get at least 5h30m SOT and about 28h standby time. I saw some screens with less than 4h SOT!
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] themohd:
Average SOT for me is 3 hours, I've been using it for 8 months, I do not recommend this phone if the battery is a concern to you, it tops up pretty quickly because it's small but doesn't last long.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] kardesai:
Which version are you on?

I recently updated to G970FXXU3ASG8 India. I am getting SOT of 3Hr 2Min with device idle time 1 day 1 Hr at 23% left. Dark theme, stupid apps disabled/uninstalled, background data off, background usage off, adaptive medium power savings from 30%. How can I improve my battery life? Please help

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] riggerman0421:
After the Android 10 update I'm actually getting better battery life. I went from 4-5 hours to around 6 hours screen time.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] riggerman0421:
Full day, battery is incredible after the update.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Kaperskypl:
Yeah, I'm giving up on this phone getting around 2 - 2,5h SOT. Exynos is so awful, not even mentioning the camera being wonky almost all the time. Might be my last Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Romi14:
From my personal experience the s10 software is so far the most polished android experience from Samsung. Unfortunately other android phone makers can and often do better job with their software. My first Samsung phone was galaxy S2. And it wasn't pleasant experience. The worst I remember was Galaxy s3 after update to 4.3 jellybean. It turned phone into unusable piece of tech with countless bugs.

I think the best android experience as of today is oneplus or pixel. But I don't like big phones so oneplus is out of game for me and pixel is kinda weird compromise with very very premium price.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] djg269:
Hi all, these are my results..
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] crixley:
LOL some of the posts in here are hilarious.... Yeah 9 or 10 hours screen on time, sureeeeeeee. Leaving your phone on min brightness while not using it on a black screen to get some xda likes is pretty pathetic. For a NORMAL person who uses their phone like a normal person, these numbers are not possible or remotely realistic. Hey you boosted your xda cred though right?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] djg269:
Finally someone that is realistic, using a device nowadays for me means wifi, bluetooth, autosync on all the time. Then the usage is realistic. Now everyone is searching for fixes for something that needs no fix.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] crixley:
Exactly. If I have to hobble my phone to make it last more than two hours, and essentially make it no longer a "smart"phone, is this real usage case? Is this a genuine topic or a contest to see who can get the highest SOT?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] riggerman0421:
Mine is realistic. WiFi on, syncing 3 email accounts, web surfing, playing games, YouTube, forums, reading my news feed. Normally between 6 and 7 hours screen time over a full day. The only I don't sync is Facebook, poorly written app that uses way too much battery to constantly sync.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] strawsy:
I got this phone for my mom and she drops from full to about 20% in a few hours. I've never seen a phone drain so fast. Having her try things to get better battery but so far no change. I'm going to see her this weekend to see what I can do. What software version is everyone on?
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] vroyibg:
Brand new exynos version, getting 3hrs SOT on wifi, with everything on.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] kodiak799:
snapdragon...10 hours SOT, depending on use, with auto brightness enabled.

Bluetooth and wifi on, sync on (2 email accounts, twitter, several offline news/rss feeds and a few dozen stocks widgets updating every hour). And while playing solitaire my battery usage doesn't go much above 10% per hour, if at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Rockguy40:
I'm on the may update and the best i was able to do is 2h20 with 40% charge (today, mainly wifi browsing and emails). I am still tweaking around a bit. The problem though is not with the battery ( i used to have a v30 with 3300mah and snap845 that still managed 6h/7h of sot) but with the way the processor (exynos ) is managed. The standby battery drain is ridiculous, 1% hour sitting there doing nothing is way too much.

No Aod

No edge lighting

Optimized battery mode

Sync on

GPS on

90-> 50%
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] l_mike:
Exynos model is ridiculous. Samsung does not care about its customers mostly in Europe forcing them to buy way worse soc.

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] jimboni:
Okay, I'm late to the party but loads of folks will now pick up the s10e on the secondary market, so I'll add my experience on an unlocked snapdragon phone running stock t-mobile and Nova prime. Fresh reset with all updates completed.

9hrs SOT consistently! Usually charge it every other day. The phone was a year old when I got it. I think the battery life is amazing and very similar to my previous Oneplus 6 with a much larger battery/screen.

Full disclosure:

Out of the box I immediately disabled Facebook and saw just shy of 8hr SOT over several cycles. Lots of wakelocks though (GSAM), so I turned off lift/tap to wake, and AOD. One of these was apparently the culprit and I don't need the features. Out of annoyance I remapped Bixby to single press off, double press to launch something useful, and long press for google assistant. Out of habit (and the fact I wear a tin foil hat), I disabled com-tmobile.pr.adapt. I tend to avoid disabling system apps as it often honks things up and battery life is worse. Rather, I turn off background data and data usage access to apps I do not want or use and hide the icons in my launcher. So, no other disables other than switching to google apps from samsung and making sure samsung acct and apps turned off and not able to run in the background. Each day I use twitter a lot, 2-3hrs media streaming via wifi, gestures on, minimal simple game or two, nfc is on, dozens of mms, and a 2-3 hours of talk time. Over 2 weeks of use I routinely get 9hrs SOT and have 25-30% left in the tank. I'm becoming less of a samsung fan due to the time it takes to set up their system, but the hardware and build quality are top notch (no pun intended) and the screens are terrific. If my OP 6 had been a bit smaller, and the new ones smaller still, I'd still be using a OP phone. But I do like the form factor and quality of the S10e.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] meetlicious:
Exynos and debloat, the week in this pic is always with wifi , if I use 4g i get only 4h of sot. Coming from a OP3 that gets only 3.5h this phone is so good for me
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] arctophile:
Interesting thanks. Thinking about new phone and only good options under $500 and 150mm tall seem to be S10e and Pixel 4a.

Just out of interest, I've always had a notification light and not had to think much about how I'd get on without one. If you disable tap to wake and AoD, how do you know if you have notifications waiting (assuming you miss the initial sound/vibration)? I wish new phones would stop removing basic functionality *old man shaking fist*
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] kodiak799:
Yeah, my stats usually say closer to 10hrs, but that's probably within the variance of our individual settings. As I write that, one app tells me just over 11 hours while the other says 7.5 (but I haven't done a full charge/discharge in a while so the calibrations might be a bit off).

I try to charge mine every night, though. I got the Chargie so I could keep it around 50% at night to maximize battery life, but their software doesn't play all that nice with Samsung. As I said, calibration might be a bit off but after 11 months I supposedly still have 98-99% capacity. But maybe I'm kidding myself hoping for 4+ years out of the battery - most seem to start failing around 2.5 years regardless of how much of the original capacity is left.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Tentai:
Dunno what you are on about? 8 hours and even more is very doable at least on the SD variant. I got 4 hours SOT today with 51% Left.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] okij:
I get pretty good SOT and battery life too on the Exynos variant of the S10e:

Part of it might be that I'm using BeyondROM and the Arter97 variant of ThundeRStormS-Kernel. Both have some optimizations for battery, but still the performance is very decent:

I rooted my S10e right after buying it this August, so I don't have a comparison to the stock rom.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] virginwin:
Happy Christmas and Thanks. Would this help with wifi and bluetooth not connecting and very high battery drain? My phone stopped working properly after the Sept update and Samsung do not want to know.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] okij:
I didn't read about other users having these issues on the Samsung stock firmware. BeyondROM is based on it and ThundeRStormS-Kernel is based on Samsung sources too, with some optimizations here and there, so IMO this won't make a difference for your issues.

If you didn't factory reset your phone yet to try to fix your issues, you should give this a go first.

Unlocking and rooting your phone to install a custom ROM isn't a good idea, because you will lose warranty which you need if your issues should be hardware-related.

Also you could ask in the forums that I linked or in their corresponding Telegram groups, maybe they can give you some advice there. Merry Christmas to you too and good luck. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] totex71:
Exynos and went ham all day and even did a bit of mobile data usage when walking the dog for an hour. Also I use adaptive power saving so power saving mode just kicked in. Wasn't on until now
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] runindia:
Pretty cool. I too would wish to share my experience with the battery life on my s10e running on Exynos. I know this is like 3 years ago. But I recently purchased a used s10e which is approximately 3 and a half years old based on the IEMI number I decoded. Not sure if the previous owner has changed the battery.

My usage is a mix of everything. Instagarm, youtube, whatsapp and a few other applications. No gaming whatsoever.

Used power saving mode. Always on display OFF

I got 4 hours & 20mins of SOT on mine. (battery charged till 98% before using the phone)

No dark theme except for the keypad theme. Used the basic light theme. Running on android 12, UI version 4.1 ( not using any launcher. Just the standard Samsung one.

I managed to get 4 hours & 20mins of SOT and my battery is at 16%. I guess thats okay?

I was curious to see the battery life consumption on the s10e Snapdragon version. So I purchased one which was from the US. It was just one year old based on the manufacturing date. Again I got this from the IEMI number which I checked online with and decoded. The standby on the snapdragon was just a little better. Dint really find a big difference in the Snapdragon one while I was using it. It seemed to drain similarly to the old Exynos I was using (same settings). Even the Snapdragon version would get hot on the back panel just like the Exynos version, so hence dint see a BIG difference in the snapdragon version. Just a little better, hardly noticeable. I returned the snapdragon and got a full refund. I am good with the Exynos version.

Phone is pretty powerful otherwise. (Exynos). Happy with it.

Not impressive, I lose about 1% every 30 min without using the phone :/ (Exynos)
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Edgrr000:
This is pretty disappointing it looses 10 - 15% of battery overnight doing absolutely nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Sean09:
I am losing about 2%/hour doing absolutely nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] vonDubenshire:
My S10e loses almost nothing if I turn things off.

Airplane overnight = less than 1 percent

with AOD it loses a bit, 4-5
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] NixxxoN-XDA:
Excuse me guys, but its not true that the phone does nothing. It communicates permanently with the antenna signals and the network, so its absolutely normal that it drains battery. Every phone drains battery in standby, even when they are on airplane mode (although in this mode the drainage is much much lower)

If you want yout phone to actually do nothing, you have to turn it off.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Edgrr000:
Yea... no. My two year old Oneplus 5t, with nearly 100 apps installed, only drops 3 - 6% overnight with 4g on.

My 1 week old galaxy s10e with airplane mode on drops 10% overnight.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] NixxxoN-XDA:
I havent said anything about the draing % being too high or not. I said that it is not true that the phone does nothing while being in standby. Which is a fact.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Nakulkhanna:
Mine is draining around 12-15% overnight.

Very disappointed with the battery life of s10e

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] themohd:
I use Bixby Routines to automatically turn airplane mode on during the time I'm asleep and it went from draining 15% to only 5%.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Edgrr000:
I just updated to the latest update ASCA, battery drain issue seems to be fixed. It drops less than 1% per hour now. (5% over 6 hours)
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Clayter21:
ASCA? Is your phone with Verizon? How did you update? This battery drain is killing me too. The only positive is that it seems the battery drain is about the same while using the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Edgrr000:
Mine is the international dual sim Exynos version. I just got an OTA update about 3 days ago. I was also having pretty bad standby battery drain. 15% in 8 hours. Last night it only dropped 4% in 8 hours, which is pretty amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Clayter21:
Thanks for the reply. I'm downloading it now. Hope it fixes mine. I know there are always bug when first launched. If things aren't straightened out within 6 months I'm going back to pixel once the 4 comes out.
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Clayter21:
I don't believe it helped. Still losing a good but while in standby with aod off
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] joaomateus:
When it lost 4% in 8 hours, did you have AOD/wifi/data/bluetooth on?

I'm on the ASCA update, but still have terrible standby drain on my Exynos S10e (3%/h).
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] Edgrr000:
AOD: OFF

Wifi: OFF

Data: ON all the time

Bluetooth: sometimes on sometimes off, I don't notice significant drain when it's on.

I literally had significant better battery life from one day to the next without doing anything. However I have had most of the useless apps disabled since day one, (Facebook, Bixby, Samsung stuff, etc.) I also have wifi and bluetooth scanning off. It is ON by default

You should also follow some of these settings

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Real Life Review] rabocop:
Hi guys,

At this moment I am not sure if I am suffering battery drain or is just that I got a ****ty battery. My s10e drains ~15% overnight (7h and 30m). I am leaving it with wifi + network on, because I am just testing it. I went to the service with the problem, they updated software and told me something about a wrong backup. This time I didn´t restore any backup at all and went directly to test during night.

Two nights¨

With Wifi+antenna (7h and 30m): ~15% overnight .

Without Sim Card (7h and 30m) : 2-3% overnight

In both cases I checked SPY-CPU expecting to see the typical problem with DeepSleep, but not, the number is around 88%, which I would say is rather high.

Is this how life is with S10e or I should go back to service because there is some problem with the battery capacity, any ideas?

Thanks!

Coming from a Pixel 2, and both phones in OtterBox Defenders are almost exact size, which is nice. One thing I don't like is the button placement. Pixel 2's buttons are in a perfect location. The S10e's are way too high on the phone in my opinion, at least to easily use one-handed.
