Maggi, 29 Jul 2020Hi Entropy. Sorry my mistake .Holding power and volume down... moreHi Maggi, Scorpio, I also think I found the culprit using Gsam battery monitor. It's Google play services which shows continuous background usage in Gsam and device care. I have cleared cache and data after force stopping it, but the play services drain is still there. I am also losing 10-12% overnight (7 hrs) on "medium power saving" mode primarily due to play services. My last resort is to reset the phone.

Scorpio, 30 Jul 2020Interesting. I have just checked my s10 and it has been off... moreYes pretty similar. Except that instead of FB I spend time on Twitter. I get a similar SOT about 1 hr 20 mins when it reaches in the early 70s battery. However on days when I use less screen time, it falls to 70% in 6-7 hrs with 40-50mns of screen time.

Entropy, 29 Jul 2020Hi Scorpio, when we use the phone it gives a good SOT, but ... moreInteresting. I have just checked my s10 and it has been off charge now for 6 hours and there is still 72% left. I've spent about 1 hour on fb which is a heavy battery user, and perhaps 20 mins on Google and perhaps a half hour on the phone. Does this sound similar to your experience?

Is there a brand of screen protector that actually allows the fingerprint reader to function properly? I've tried two supposedly thin that fingerprint reader should work but doesn't.

I woul... moreHi Scorpio, when we use the phone it gives a good SOT, but believe me Exynos variant is poor when it comes to standby battery. I have a Nokia and Asus Rog 2 and I tried in the same conditions with same SIM and the battery drain when not in use is slightly less than 1.0%/hr. If I dont use my s10+ much during the day, I see it drop by 40-45% by late evening whereas my ROG2 drains only 25-30% with exactly similar usage. It would still last a day as you say, but there is always some battery anxiety with S10+ which I dont have with my other phones. I have disabled a few things and cleared cache as Maggi suggested. Am crossing my fingers that the standby drain should improve in the coming weeks.

Entropy, 28 Jul 2020So I finally gave Exynos another chance and bought the S10+... moreHi Entropy I have an s10 exynos and it is brilliant. I would have thought that 2% per hour would be quite normal. I don't check my battery usage during the day but I normally leave my phone on charge during the night and I easily get a full day out of it with still plenty left.

Entropy, 28 Jul 2020Also, should I disable 'adaptive battery' option?... moreYes if you want to . But with Adaptive Battery, your phone will prevent apps from drainging your battery while you're not using them. It will keep learning and keep making your phone more battery efficient as you keep using your apps. But some ppl disable it. I have mine enabled. Its really up to you. Its your choice. Everyone us different .

Entropy, 28 Jul 2020So I finally gave Exynos another chance and bought the S10+... moreAs you have only just got your s10 plus the battery takes a while to be calibrated properly. Needs a few charges and discharges before it reaches optimum performance. Rebootimg your phone once a week is good for battery to. Also disable bloated apps that can be disabled. Some apps it came with cant be disabled because they are needed. And like I mentioned try clearing your cache partition after an update as there could be a small clinche thats causing it. Hope you get it sorted.
