Battery life continues to be impressive. Actually even better.

So why does my battery only show 47 min of usage when I start using my phone at 7 a.m. and listen all day pretty much to music, podcast and Sirius XM? I rarely turn it off until lunch. Shouldn’t it show as 7 hrs usage?

I believe maybe because the screen is off?

If it helps my note 8 gets on avg 9 hours SOT with 14 hours usage so I'd say the 8+ is about the same. My dad's 8+ is draining like hot booty.

My 8+ is getting tremendous battery life. I have a screen shot posted a few above this. I never dip under 50% after a full day with good usage time during that time.

My dad's 8+ was super glitchy setting up too so it might just be the firmware

Maybe. Or an app issue eating the battery away. I average about 6.5 to 7 hours of usage a day on my phone. Standby around 17 hours. On my 7 plus, I’d be at 20% at end of the day. My 8 plus I’m usually mid to upper 50’s in battery. I’ve once only dipped under 50% and I’ve had this phone 10 days now.

Battery life is phenomenal.
Spent all day yesterday at the sheepdog nationals finals in Belle Grove VA. Full charge at 7 am when I left the car. Taking several videos, texting, and posting results to FB in dodgy areas in terms of signal and yet got back in the car at 6:30 with 38% left.
VERY impressed with the battery life of this phone.

I've drank the Kool aid and got myself one...
It's comparable to the S8+ at the moment

OK I'm new here and just baffled. I've been on Android from day 1 and slowly hated it especially now with my LG V10. According to Verizon my battery and phone is OK. I've even ran in safe mode and got replacement phone.

My usage entails
Phone idle 11 hrs
Screen on 35min

My battery is 40% 😩😡

No apps running and killing battery, it's just that bad. I'm switching from this to iPhone 8 plus as soon as this is paid off hopefully around xmas. Can't wait after hearing these results.

Back on topic, I reflashed iOS 11 on my dad's 8+ and he's down 9% but he has nothing on his phone but audible so it's good for him

Sounds like apps were actually running, apps will run in the background hidden but 60% in 11 hours isn't bad though. Remember SOT is NOT comparable to usage from iPhone.
