[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sri4xda:
Dual VoLTE on always might consume some.

Compare to my S10+, which I hardly get 4+ hrs SOT with my usage similar to this and die in 1 day max.

Its still usable after 2 days for my usage.

FYI: Just recently got it and want it to die to zero and charge it again. Lets see how long it goes. 3days over with my usage (but its like 2 days and 3 nights)
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] prakharbirla:
That's a lot of battery (40%), double of the screen, gone to VoLTE. Btw, how does the internet work here on dual VoLTE? Also which providers are you using?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] Veiran:
From what I can tell, the screen and processor (when stressed) will drain the battery more proportionately than, say, the Pixel 3A XL. The performance reverses when more data-intensive tasks (such as social media or streaming) are performed; wifi and cell radios are perhaps the largest drainers of batteries and are more likely to be around the same on a variety of phones. When it comes to data tasks, it seems the largest battery will net the best results.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sri4xda:
Using airtel and jio. Internet is on airtel.

Yes it appears high not sure why. Mobile network standby drain is reported on other devices too but not quite sure what solution helps
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] Some_dude36:
Wow , thats pretty good! With the kernel source released and the bootloader unlocked Hopefully there will be some AOSP roms for this device and with minimalist android running ought to see some pretty impressive battery specs with all the wireless off except the network and minimal amount of apps running as per normal AOSP development .

Right on . This device could turn out to be a legit cult classic like the HTC HD2 of old times with its specs .
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] prakhar goel:
Please tell the secret
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sri4xda:
Secret???

Its the biggest battery so it lasts longer.

General tips for asus:

Use auto start manager to allow required apps only to start automatically

Use optiflex to avoid reloading of apps which you use most (many a times app shuts and restarts consume more power than app keep on running)

Use GPS/Bluetooth/Mobile data only when needed and keep it off.

Use lite apps for fb/twitter
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] mickey36736:
That's really good. Almost twice as much as my zenfone 5z.

My phone just barely survives for 3 hours community day without a power bank. I will get zenfone 6 for sure and I will test it. :D
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
How do u use optiflex?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sri4xda:
Typically the setting is available in "Settings - Advanced - Optiflex" (In asus 6z, it was on by default)

Enable speed up, Choose which apps to be always in memory manually below by enabling them as shown in screenshot (rationale is to say optiflex that I use this app very often and keep it in memory so that it wont shuts/reload)

Otherwise enable "Auto select based on app usage".
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sri4xda:
Optiflex is available at Settings - Advanced.

By default it is enabled if not we can enable it.

It can be setup to keep most used applications in memory.

If we know which apps we use most, we can disable auto select apps based on usage and manually select which apps we want to keep in memory.

If we are not sure of our usage pattern of apps, we can let auto select based on apps usage be enabled.

As I said, shutting down apps and restarting hits battery so most frequest apps are better be in memory.

(The concept is somewhat similar to iOS wired memory where frequently used apps are wired and it helps in better battery)
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
Thanks I have the 5z now and never knew where this was at or what it exactly did thanks for the breakdown and it was automatically enabled on my 5Z I just changed which apps were being used by it
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] nsn27:
Also it doesn't mean the apps you select will never be kicked out of memory once opened . The system will simply avoid it as much as possible. So those app will eventually still have to be reloaded depending on your memory usage.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] kedar a.k.a. 3K:
I think it is possible to achieve 9+hrs SOT over 3 days with medium usage and a full charge.

Note: I uninstalled facebook and disabled facebook services the moment I got the phone and I'm on the latest update released on 22/07 in which they mentioned battery usage optimisation.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] kataeb:
So confused second day of use, huge drain with mobile network standby (10%) and google play services(8%) !! Currently 59% of battery with 2h and 4mn of SOT and Phone iddle 16h 47mn

NO wifi, NO bluetooth, NO NFC

Is that horrible ? Does someone knows how to fix that ?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] kedar a.k.a. 3K:
If you just got your phone I would recommend to let it settle for a couple of days and then observe the battery life. I've noticed phones take more battery for some days after first boot. I think rebooting will help. Also try disabling facebook services.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] abprie:
FYI: been using the phone for a 4 hour trip with OSMAND as navigation.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] kedar a.k.a. 3K:
Still good for ½ an hour more. I commend Asus for going with the large battery instead of faster charging.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] wuzzzzz:

Sick in bed.

Bluetooth off. Wifi äll day. Auto screen brightness. Lastest firmware

Google Play Services

I noticed that some of you with a lot of Screen On Time doesn't even have Google Play Services in the list of app with most usage.

Is there anything you guys have disabled? Location services or such?

Edit: Sorry for the huge image. Can seem to find out how to add as an attachment instead of an img tag.

[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] Aftab_khatri:
Delete play services and install again, you have abnormal battery drain
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] JonWallsten:
Is that even possible without root? I can only Force quit and/or Deactivate.

I have tried to Force quite and then cleaned the storage/data without luck.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] fracama87:
I've got the phone from a couple of days:

-I've set naptime,

-I've deactivated lift to wake up

-I've deactivated automatic startup

-I've still to set APP OPS about running in background and disable standby for some app.

next days I'll have some real feedback about battery life
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] mrasquinho:
Yesterday I've got a fantastic 11 hours SOT! And the remaining battery was 25%!!! I don't even know how!

I used the phone as normally, and didn't have any battery saving feature activated.

I'm amazed.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] zuuus:
I got mine two days ago, charged it to full then let it run out. Most of the day it was playing YouTube but there were a few half hour sessions of games further down the list. Even though it has more idle drain than my old Huawei Mate 9, the battery endurance is amazing on this phone. And it doesn't force close apps I'm using to save battery.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] aygross1929:
Are you rooted?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] zuuus:
No, completely stock just changed to Evie launcher. I had Wifi, Mobile data and Location on. Bluetooth was off the whole day. I did remove FB/Messenger/Instagram and also disabled a couple of services related to them under the system apps screen as FB is a huge battery hog. Brightness was set to about 70% all day.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
What exactly did you disable?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] zuuus:
If you go to Settings>Apps>See All, then show System Apps I disabled "Facebook App Installer", "Facebook App Manager" and "Facebook Services".
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
I don't see this in there not sure I had the 5z before this and I was able to see the Facebook services this way before. not sure why I can't see it now

Also heres a update on the battery life/screen on time

Google play services is bugging me that it's so high in usage how can I cut this down
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] zuuus:
I also have Google Play services constantly running but it doesn't seem to actually use much battery. Seems to be the same thing in your screenshot - it's run for almost 11hrs but only used 2% battery. I think something else is draining your battery but you might have to install a battery monitor app to get a detailed report.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
I think it's fine then yesterday I used it heavily I ended up getting 7 hours screen on the with heavy use it was off the charger since 7am it's about in line with most of the others I've seen 7 to 10 hrs screen on time
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] mickey36736:
10 hours screen on time with normal usage.

15% per hour with pokemon go.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
I get roughly 8 to 10 hours
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] sedp23:
First work day on Android 10

This is all over LTE no wifi
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] iAnoop:
90% Wifi + Dual VoLTE : Give around 9-10Hours of SOT.

On 50-50: Mobile Date - WiFi give around 8 Hours of SOT over 2 days of normal use.

This is one of the perfect feature of phone which give me insane batter life with flagship hardware. Never have to worry about battery. :angel:
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] leiros:
So one year later, phone still holding up very nicely. Easily get 8-10 hours of SOT over 3-4 days with conservative use.

Still stock.
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] MrContar1997:
So my screen on time has died quite a bit, went from getting 8-12 hours on Android 9 and since upgrading to 10 it's drop to 4-6 hours and the 6 is with only wifi on whereas before I had bluetooth, nfc, wifi, location and data on

Anyone know if this is an android 10 thing or if there's any settings you recommend I change? Hoping Android 11 will fix it, I've tried to keep the battery health up which has been pretty good but it just took a nose dive after android 10, is it related to the amount of storage space used (if that's even a thing)?
[ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Real Life Review] justmoto92:
Still holding on to Android 10 despite the drops of screen on time hours as compared to Android 9. Does anyone have any idea whether Android 11 has better or improve screen on time than Android 10?

- back to android 10

- back again to android 11

- another factory reset...

non of theese have worked so far...

Can you please help me?

It's okay for me in sunlight when set to auto(I never found any outdoor mode option so idk if enabled :) ) but with sunglasses it's too dark, usable to do something or maps but no for media consumption. I compared with xiaomi mi9 in shop and Asus is brighter(indoors) for me with better colors, but in sunlight screen have more reflections so it may appear darker I think.

Hi guys,

my problem is, everytime I want to flash a non-origianl-ROM (with SD-Card Falsh) I got the following Failure: "Invalid Caertificate"

I think the solution could be to use the CID-Unlock patch, but it semms like my USB-Port doesnt work any more, so I could only use my Bluetooth to connect my pda to my PC and with a bluetooth connection this patch doesnt work.....

Does anyone know a solution to my problem ????
