After thorough investigation, it seems that the H7 stock ROM B120 does not have great idle/stand-by battery consumption.

The battery now is at 39% with SOT of 4hrs 30 minutes:

The 4.5 hours SOT is actually straight browsing and YouTube starting from 12PM to 4PM. So, if we leave H7 on idle/stand-by, most of the battery will lost at "idle" and "Cell Standby" activities. This is bad, thus, "Awake" activity graph does not match with "Screen on" graph...

So, if you CONTINUOUSLY use H7 from 100% battery till dead (browsing & streaming only), you can get 9++ hours SOT straight.... H7 is begging you to use it every single second...don't leave it aside/alone or it will eat the battery a lot...

The intermittent "Awake" activity is infamous in Lolli 5.0.2 .... I believe once the H7 is upgraded to Lolli 5.1.1 or Mallow 6.0, the battery statistic for idle/stand-by will be significantly improved....

SOT of 7 hours still great, but as you said drop in idling time in B120. Maybe 6.0 doze will help?

Definitely... getting the Mallow 6.0 from Huawei Malaysia is like waiting for "Bulan Jatuh Ke Riba".... LOL...

While our Ringgit is weakening, we are lucky to have reasonable price for H7. In the States, it reaches RM2K already....

If this is the case, can become scalpers in US and make lots of profit leehhh....

In Europe, it will be hot cake because Moto & Nexus line-ups are over priced over there...

Why the awake bar is more than screen on bar? Something running at background?

That's the thing that eat up the battery during idle... it's my Smartband Talk Bluetooth connection. This band periodically sync with H7 to update the LifeLog apps to log steps, running, net activities, etc.

Once you have used the code, be it the payment went thru or not, you CANNOT re-use anymore. So, you MUST create another Lazada account using different email to re-use the same code .....

Any Xperia Z2 users here change to Honor 7?

Is the overall device smaller than xperia z2? or about the same
*
Size is not that significant... the most important part is how it is handled... H7 is "unnecessarily" heavy device....imbalance weight due to back fingerprint scanner below the camera module... the whole device feels heavy on one side....not that comfortable to type fast....

However, azeemzuhair's review of ZTE Nubia Z7Max has the similar specs that I'm looking for. Good SoC, dual sim with separated sd card slot, at least 2gb ram with 32gb. internal memory. Although buying phones that are not available locally through online shops without a chance of trying the out really gives me some insecurities.

If u r interested, I'm willing to let go my Z7Max.

my Android System also at that consumption level... but some other device (like Nexus 4) always below 10%... is this normal for Honor 7 with 2x %?
*
Android system consists of so many background activities... So, my guess is the EMUI 3.1 on top of Lolli 5.0.2 is not properly coded... Someone is doing a rushing job here...
