hmm i suppose it depends on the user then

for me i never bothered with SOT since years ago even when im not using Samsung phones.
as long as the phone can lasts me whole day from 9am till i reach home from work without needing to charge.
im satisfied

i wont purposely stress myself to go and check every now and then to monitor the SOT only to be stressed out because my usage for today was heavy until it couldnt reach the average of 4 hours worth of SOT

i believe everyday the SOT will be different

sometimes will be due to major heavy usage, sometimes standby time is longer as i didnt really use the phone.
I don't check sot after 1 month or so after first use the phone
but i very picky if i have top constantly top up my device,i feel that my battery will weaker faster if i keep top up the battery, because of this habit i think my battery usually stay the same after half year
I think everyone will notice battery drain, even if they dont know how to check it, Samsung really need to tone down their software even more, too many things running at background that we can't do anything bout it
in term of hardware, samsung>others, but software wise, they need to improve,its not the greatest.
