QUOTE(big1 @ May 6 2017, 06:21 PM) your app. or sd card or another 1000 things. Don't bash me. MIUI & EMUI much better in battery standby with same setup. I repeat again, same apps & same setup.its android. May be takes few days to kick in but I really never had WOW battery standby time in Samsung phones. |

QUOTE(big1 @ May 6 2017, 06:37 PM) did you try to install everything from scratch or restore from backup? Everything from scratch. 5th times charging circle.if all else fails, try to wipe cache. and you need to let the battery gone through a few cycles. how many times have you charge/discharge in these....2 days? QUOTE(debonairs91 @ May 6 2017, 06:39 PM) how come so bad. mine 2 hours drop 5% only. using. not idle Using time battery life is Ok. I said standby battery time.QUOTE(big1 @ May 6 2017, 06:39 PM)  obviously something wrong with your phone. s7e only 1 % whole night. |

QUOTE(TOMEI-R @ May 6 2017, 06:57 PM) Yes, but overnight drain of more than 20% in on the high side. Suggest you perform a soft reset. Whats the app thats draining out your battery? QUOTE(Evrae90 @ May 6 2017, 07:00 PM) Had same issue with s7e last time...suspected that it could be the phone trying to latch on a stronger signal eg jumping between wifi and lte. Want meh? Dun wan reset lar coz lazy. May be later install Gsam battery monitor to check. Battery monitoring really hard in Samsung phones, somemore those bars also removed. Should learn from EMUI.Factory resetted and never had the same issue afterwards. |

QUOTE(xisan @ May 6 2017, 07:05 PM) You should try blackberry passport can last you 3 daya without charging. Let the new phone settle first then can compare the SOT LOL. Blackberry still there? I know it's still earlier to tell a phone battery life just for couple of days. This is my first impression on S8 as well as other Samsung phones. I think if Samsung can do something like iOS battery standby time then sure blow other brands away. However, even Google can`t make it works well then who can? |

It seems S8 has more aggresive charging temperature protection. When phone is more than 40°C then it will stop charging.
This is screenshot taken from Taiwan forums where forumers complained phone stop charging when using fast wireless charging. 
I also encountered the same issue.  |

Even here is S8 thread but please don't be so narrow-minded & keeps on bashing other brands becoz u don't like it. Every phones has its pros & cons.
Why not just focus on sharing valuable info about our phone instead of making chaos? Be mature abit lar pls. |
