With half day light use like Twitter and web browsing, the battery drops to 50%. What should I do? I have to charge it daily for very light use and extreme battery saving measures in play.

I'm a battery freak and the reason I bought this A71 is because of good battery reviews. Sadly, it's 4th day since I bought this phone and I'm very much disappointed. My old J7 2016 performs better than this phone after 4 years of usage.
Before you advise me about battery saving measures let me clear it that I have done the following things from the day I got the phone;
> Screen Brightness to 5% all the time.
> Dark mode on from day 1.
> Black solid color Amoled Wallpaper from day 1.
> No location, GPS use.
> Not a gamer at all.
> Always-on display off from day 1.
> Bixby disabled from day 1.
> Animations disabled.
> Not opting to vivid mode because I thought it might consume battery.
> No issue of poor signals on cellular service.
> Battery saving mode on.
I charged my phone to 100% last night and before I sleep I optimized the phone and there was no app running in the background and I even turned off the wifi with Brightness lowered to 5%. I woke up after 5 hours and saw my battery at 96%. The stats show no background app or screen on time but still this battery drop. Why is it happening?
This is about last night. My phone got stuck at 98% and it was there for 25 mins. I plugged out and plugged in again it jumped to 100%.
Phone is amazing but I'm seriously disappointed by the battery life of this phone. I'm not a heavy user. I only use Twitter, Samsung Notes, Chrome to browse and some audios already present in my phone memory.
Somebody help me with this battery issue.

Second order of brand new Samsung Galaxy A71 I'm making that still came with only the phone, charger, a manual leaflet and an ejection pin. I'm guessing that's how it is sold in Canada and maybe the specs sent to the Canadian market does not come with any accessory. Anyone here in Canada received a brand new Samsung Galaxy A71 with complete accessories?

Hello guys, I used phone INFO app to check my Samsung Galaxy A71 chipset. And the chipset I found was SM6150 (64bit). Is this correct? Because of all the adverts I've seen concerning Samsung Galaxy A71 the chipset they always mention is SM 730. Please can anyone clarify this

Hello everyone ! I read that this days finally arrives One UI 2.1 but that's not all. It seem that was good to wait. Samsung will push few software things from S20 line and the most amazing it's that we will get full Pro mode in camera with Shutter Speed, Manual Focus, Better ISO control, something very nice from Samsung, A51 will get also, that will make us to enjoy better photography. I don't know why I'm so happy because I own a Canon Eos 250D but I really missed Pro Mode from flagships.

Thanks for the answer. I found the same. It might be great with proper light conditions and focus length, but the Moto Fusion+ has a focus and it might be better in low light. Unfortunately I could not go higher in the pricing now :)
Thanks for your opinion! Cheers!

Hi guys,
Can you advise me, if I should choose Fusion+ vs Samsung A71 from camera perspective? I want great macro and nature shots. Leaves, grass, rocks, bark, etc... They seem really really close. What is your opinion? Like with reasoning :)

Anonymous, 07 Jul 2020Dude try increasing your display brightness it should fix itNo it doesn't. It has nothing to do with brightness in this case. It starts as soon as you unlock the phone (on S10 Lite atleast).
