Typical fanboi answer, go get an iphone...

Good for you that you're happy with yours, but i bet you wouldn't be saying the same if you had just about 2 hours of SOT in just under 11 hours with only 18% left...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
I just came off an iPhone XR and then an XS Max. Not a Samsung fanboi.

You going from 100-18% in 2 hours, clearly isn't normal. YOUR PHONE is broken or messed up. It's not indicative of what most of us are seeing...

So find out why YOUR phone is acting wonky, and replace as needed. I get that you have an issue, but it's clearly not a common one, so I wouldn't blame the phone as much as YOUR phone...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] mostling:
I never said MY phone was indicative of the whole range, that's why i posted MY results for today, and i'm not the only one with the problem, there's a LOT of US with the Exynos who are having problems so just because YOU are not having any problems with YOUR phone is not indicative that there is not a problem out there...

A "few" more people here having issues: https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxys10/comments/azds0q/galaxy_s10_battery_life_megathread/
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Davey Dual Sim:
It's so much better than my S9

I can get a full day out of it inc 6hr screen time, so charging night before and then working a day on it is I need the battery to do.

Battery life needs to be equated to real life, very few people will hammer a phone like me, dual sim all day on LTE loads of notifications and everything on mac, nothing turned off.if this phone goes 24 hrs 8pm to 8pm on a work day on one charge then that's all it needs to do.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] SquireSCA:
Here is what I have learned from being a part of internet forums since... I dunno, 1995 or so? Before that, technically, if you could local dial-up BBS's in the late 1980's...

Anyway, what I see is that less than 1% of owners of a product, go to forums on average. Much less than 1%. And of the people that do are primarily broken up into two categories... 1) Enthusiasts and tinkerers looking for ideas and answers, and 2) People having issues....

So you and a small handful of other people having this issue is not really a sign of a problem in general. If 2% of these phones had this issue, that would involve tens of thousands of devices, easily, and it would be making headlines... But when you go to a forum, which is a collection point for people with problems, things often seem more common than they actually are... Most people don't have problems with their phone/car/motorcycle/tv/tablet/gun/watch or whatever it is we are talking about... the product works as designed and they are busy using it, not pouring through forums troubleshooting it...

I just can say it's worse than my 1,5 years old v30 with much of heavy flashing and heavy heavy use over the year(s) usually my battery is done after one year. I never got good use on a phone since the Nokia days. But it should not be like that now.

I expected more. But i knew that the s10 exynos would probably be very inferior to the SD s10+
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Davey Dual Sim:
My S10 Exynos is matching all the SDs posted in here

I have everything on full whack
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
please try the below with your phone

Go to settings - General - Reset then Reset the below

Rest settings

Reset accessibility

Reset network settings

but don't make factory reset ,

then switch screen to FHD+ and turn off AOD and Edge lightning then check & if battery is corrected , start using higher res and use AOD again etc..
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] mostling:
I did reset settings so will see how it behaves tomorrow, all other stuff is untouched so it has been on FHD+ and AOD off.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Ace42:
V30 happened to be one of the most efficient 835 phones... right after the Z2 Force. In other news, the die size of 9820 is much larger than the area occupied by the SD855.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] invision1:
FWIW, i'm an S10 exynos user, and like 'mostling' and a few other users here and on other forums are raising, i've been getting average battery life too.

I've also noticed LTE/4G really takes a toll on the battery compared to WiFi - even in deep sleep on standby.

Theres a mega thread on reddit, and a few posters think it's related to 'Android System' and 'Android OS' - as these appear in the top 5 stats for all exynos users, where as they don't appear on their snapdragon counterparts. Sounds like a firmware/software issue with exynos, hopefully samsung fix it.

Wow my battery is getting worse on idle. I unplugged the phone around midnight til 7am and it went down from 100% to 74% overnight!! I noticed last night before I charged it that Android OS took 26% of the battery, looks too high. I have the Exynos version
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] mostling:
You might want to add what version it is...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] DaReDeViL:
That reminds me of my S9 ...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Sid_dominic56:
I am also getting really bad battery. I had hit 2% when I put the phone on charge.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] xerostratos:
I dont really see any issue on exynos!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] shri080:
This is my battery backup. Absolutely horrible. I have switched off wifi and bluetooth search. Have done everything that was mentioned here but no luck:(
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] geraldem:
what version? ATT?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] shri080:
S10E exynos
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vonDubenshire:
Exynos folk should also wait a little longer -- if there is a software issue causing drain, Samsung will patch it soon.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] tenchu_712:
exynos s10

I got it since 8/3. Just today, I lost 20% for 3 hours idle and 20 minutes SOT which I think it's unacceptable. From the battery stats, I see the google play services running in background all the time. Android system, android os, and device idle always rank top in the battery usage.

I already use dark mode, turn off background refresh for many apps, disable some bloatwares.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] MRDOCA:
I had terrible battery life until I reset the top 3 options under the reset option. Then like I said above 10hrs sot and 22hrs up time
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] ValouSydney:
Can you please confirm which options you're talking about?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] MRDOCA:
General/reset/

Reset settings

Reset network

Reset accessibility

That fixed it for me but mine wasnt deep sleeping
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] lawtq:
This is what I get. Trying the snapdragon version now to see the difference. Already it handles games better, it's cooler too, I can tell its smoother.

This s10 plus is snapdragon is the Hong Kong version, unlockable, wifi calling and volte immediately available which is nice indeed!

It's got a lot to live up to though as the exynos has been great battery life wise for me even though accubattery told me I lose about 13% battery with screen off at idle still get 7 to 8hrs 4g and 10hrs wifi sot! Straight away the snapdragon has better idle drain so it should be better!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] memocatcher:
My second cycle somehow got much worse. Having 73% left with only 55 min SOT.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] infrasonic13:
My wife's S10+ exynos has the same issue. My Note 8 currently is with the better battery life...

Android System is always in Top 2 drainers. We will try the reset thing and see if anything changes.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] ArunRocker:
Compared to previous S series, The S10 series is draining fast in standby mode. Almost consuming 10% in 8 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vonDubenshire:
Check your WiFi router. Raise your beacon interval and dtim settings
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] infrasonic13:
It sounds ridiculous to give 1k dollars for phone and change my home WiFi router settings to save some battery...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] memocatcher:
Agreed. Last night I left my phone with *airplane mode* turned on and after 6 hours it went from 100% to 93%.

That's horribly bad!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] jc83:
4th charge now and per phone it isn't learning my battery usage any longer.

8+ hours SOT with heavy browser usage on LTE no wifi no bluetooth no location etc. I hit 4.5 hours at 50% battery remaining during this time while at work doing heavy browser usage. US S10.

My conclusion for my personal phone is it's great battery IF I stick to heavy browser usage and IG etc. But as soon as I start heavy streaming on YouTube or google play battery starts draining pretty quick.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vonDubenshire:
But it isn't your phone's fault if this is the problem. I actually found this solution from an iPhone battery drain discussion.

It stopped all the insane wakelocks I was getting. The phone isn't the problem.

That said, this might not be your issue anyway
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Davey Dual Sim:
5 days hard work, phone charged until full night before, then full pelt working on it all day after, Exynos, dual sim on remote areas, no Wifi LTE all day, WQHD and everyone on full pelt

Getting 6 or 7 hours sot depending on calls made
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
all the people complaining from the standby drain must solve the problem of deep sleep first ,

the exynos is not the problem or is different from SD855 in this regard , it just need reset and don't restore any apps or settings from previous back ups

this solved the problem of 99.9 percent of the users ,

i myself had about 6% drain over night (6 or 7 hours sleep and on airplane mode) till i did the reset factory and did not restore any apps/settings from backups and downloaded them again & redo my settings manually , now the drain is from 1 to 2% max in the 7 hours sleep and on CPU SPY whenever i leave the phone it goes into deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Davey Dual Sim:
The amount of apps I've got id rather lose 4% battery over night that have to load them all again
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] shollywood:
WHY should anyone have to do this? Never been an issue on any of the previous devices. NOBODY should have to accomodate the phone, it should be accomodating us. Makes absolutely ZERO SENSE to have to apply all these tricks to make the phone work the way it is supposed to work!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Tweety78:
So last night I turned on AirPlane mode and in 7 hours it drained only 2%, I checked and it went into deep sleep. when I don't have airplane enabled (wifi on, bluetooth/lte off) I lose 10-11% in 7 hours. one time I lost 26%!!

My problem with airplane mode is if someone needs to reach me urgently, I won't be available.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] infrasonic13:
I believe there is a problem with the battery on certain devices and I hope Samsung will address the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
Because the standby drain issues or no deep sleep issues is caused from backups of old phones

I don't feel it is the s10 problem frankly if there is an old settings or an app that causes this problem when restored

To judge a phone honestly setup it as new phone then see for yourself if it has a problem but if an app or software is causing a problem we should not blame the phone it self frankly

I had some of this issues before with a Mate 9 phone it may be the nature of android that some apps or backups could screw it up :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] troxter:
I can confirm this 100%!!! Finally my S10 no draining battery in standby. When I got mobile, I restored by Samsung Switch: Gallery, messages, call log. I had 3% drain per hour in standby. I did what Mohamad said and my battery issue is fixed. Thanks Mohamad.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
Most welcome sir

Glad I could help :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Scitzofrenic:
Usa Snapdragon tmobile S10.

First 50% of battery was used at work on 4G LTE.

Last 50% of battery was used at home with LTE on, but connected to WIFI 6 standard WiFi.

Roughly 27 hours of usage, over 7 hours of active screen time. Very heavy usage during the day, nonstop web browsing, texting, watching videos ,etc.

All power hungry settings on non stop,NO power saving bull**** turned on.

Just enjoying the phone at its full.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] SwordOS:
what do you mean by wifi on and also connected to lte? I thought when wifi is on, mobile network is off

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Scitzofrenic:
I mean exactly what I said. Mobile network is still turned on (not airplane mode) but connected to wifi to use the wifi internet signal as the primary data puller.

However, if you look at my screenshot I also have turbo download turned on. Which means the phone uses -both- the LTE cellular network AND the wifi for large downloads, or to speed up downloads by using both radio sources to boost download speeds. The icon in the top bar with the lightning looking icon and downward arrow is this setting.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
so dont even restore apps from gmail?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
Better not to

Just restore Contacts and messages then download all your apps again and set them from scratch + normal settings for sounds and notifications and display etc..

And the phone will be so much better

Yesterday after doing this my phone lost only 1% over night in 7.5 hours sleep and phone was on airplane mode.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] sruel3216:
ok cool. i havent received my phone yet but il prob just do this when i get it to be safe. thanks for the tip
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Scitzofrenic:
You dont have to set it up as a new phone. I transferred every single item from my s8 to this s10 using smart switch via usb cable and i have no standby drain or irregular battery usage. It can help many scenarios to start from scratch. But its not the culprit or fix for every issue. I also transferred my wife's s8+ to her s10+ using usb cable smart switch and its battery is also amazing.

Please stop presenting it as such cure all answer.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Tel864:
I agree, I restored from Smart Switch and am having no problems at all.

I bought a chinese wireless charger from Amazon and I think it screwed up my battery, I let it on it to charge overnight and in the morning it was 100% but extremely hot (45° C according to accubattery and GSam) a few minutes later was 80% and now its about to die with only 3 hours SOT.

It used to be around 6 hours SOT before this

Anyone has experienced anything similar with any other wireless chargers?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
Good for you man :good:

And this method is not cure for all , it is just for stand by drain problems and deep sleep issues
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Ace42:
No issues with my wireless charger. I only use it whilst awake, however. Otherwise it's unplugged. Wireless produces more heat, and few models contain fans.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] vwite:
Something really weird is going on with my phone. If I close all apps and then check "charge current" on accutbattery it says something between -800 mah and -1500 mah I checked on my Note 9 and it only says around -200 mah.

I've restarted the phone multiple times, I let it completely drain to 0% then charged to 100% and still the same. I double checked apps installed and don't have any shady apps except for vidmate which has adware but I always force closed it with greenify immediately after downloading a video.

I checked running services on developer options and couldn't find anything weird. On GSam, "Kernel (Android OS) shows the higher compsumtion (8.9%) but I'm not sure if that's normal too.

I guess my only option is a factory reset now but I'm trying to avoid that. It's really weird it all started after using this wireless charger. It has also been constantly hot. I didn't installed or updated any apps yesterday or today and up to yesterday I had been getting more than 6 hours SOT. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] SwordOS:
how did you manage to get that kernel info with gsam battery monitor? you need adb right? It's not working on my s10 exynos

I did factory reset my phone yesterday and set it as a new phone. It doesn’t help at all. Now i lost 20% overnight :confused::)
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] kpjs4s:
which version?

Sorry for the repeating the question. is it snapdragon or exynos? and can u share some screenshots if possible?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Pandawg:
Google Play Services drain is pretty heavy. Not sure why it says it's using 7% of the battery, and is constantly in the background running.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] kpjs4s:
Me too

I too experience the same issue, I tried uninstalling/disabled all the apps with just basic apps and also ran in the safe mode but still see the play services running constantly.

I'm using Exynos version of S10E? what is ur model and version ?
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] lawtq:
I have both. Battery apps work normally on snapdragon. Not exynos though. Ridiculous
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] nickporwal:
Try turning off the automatic backup on Google account. If possible turn off auto backup of photos also. Thats the culprit in many situations.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Mohamad Gahed:
That's very strange

Did you check CPU spy and see if your phone enters deep sleep or not ?

Also under battery what is the drain reason anything abnormal?

This is my 4th day with the s10 (exynos) and i am happy with the battery life so far. Second day i had 8h of SoT with lots of benchmarking (picture down below), usually i have 7-8h with mix of lte and wifi throughout the day...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] guerreironexus:
I am also having issues with battery.... Ain't that great comparing with my old S8. So I have been reading and decided to reset settings, accessibility and network last night and give it a go.

- Went to bed with 2% left so it charged overnight

- brand new day and battery says it will last 21hrs (can't even dream about 1 day as some users lol)

- Power mode is also ON

- 4G and location ON 90% of the time

- whatsapp and instagram mostly used. No Facebook at all

Any ideias? Or is it normal for my settings?

Thanks ?

I am still consistently getting more battery life on my Note 8 exynos compared to my wife's S10 plus... It's annoying!
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Tweety78:
After the last 2 nights I put it in airplane mode and lost 2-3% in about 8 hours, last night I left it as is (wifi on, 4g off) and lost 4% in about 9 hours. I would have usually lost 10-12% (one time 26%), but it improved. it could be because I put a bunch of apps in sleep mode & one of them didn't let the phone sleep, who knows. I will see if it's the same tonight. (S10 Exynos)
