So after so much research I bought this phone slightly used but I am facing the battery drainage problems. I did a factory reset and still battery drains fast. I am on Android 7.0 after reset but skeptical about updating. is there any way to improve this? I have 930 FD Version.

Xiaomi Mi 8 a better buy than this phone now?
Bigger screen, longer battery life, better camera or at least as good.

After the latest October security patch update I am finding the battery life has got worst drastically.
Is anyone having similar issues? From India.

Its 23% as of now, I'll post a pic about how much it would get charged in half an hour... But I completely agree to this guy's point... There are much better phones in the market, buy the S7 if your only priority is camera...

These are my battery usage stats... If I use it further, it would last an hour more before being 10%...
It would charge from 10% to 70% in about 40 minutes or maybe earlier... I usually don't calculate these timings, whenever I'm not using the phone, I keep it on charge...

zvonko, 15 Nov 2018Can you tell me how much SOT do you usually get on an avera... moreSot is never a true measurement of battery backup as everyone's using their ph differently. If you binge watch videos on wifi or mobile data you will get 5 or 5.30hr sot max. If you use your phone casually you will get sot of 4.30 to 5hr but your ph will run typical 9am-9pm easily. Samsung s7 is now pretty old phone and I would suggest you to look elsewhere if camera isn't your primary priority.

Download and transfer to the S7.
As for the warranty, it is covered, at least in my region. I am not in Europe si I am not sure it does in your case. Contact Samsung about it (say the screen has a persistent red tint in some areas)

I am aware that S7 battery life could never match A2 Lite, but honestly, A2 Lite has even too much battery life. I guess I overcompensated from HTC M9 :)
Well, I guess I will get EU Exynos version since I will buy it locally, not online.
Most of them (in my budget) are out of warranty but I will look out for one that still has it, although I can hardly believe I could get the screen replaced under warranty just for burn in, considering I live in Croatia... :)
I looked up a few apps but cant find the one you are talking about.. or did you mean that I make an image myself and then send it over BT to S7?

So basically it w... moreI haven't used it right from marshmallow but switching from nougat to oreo bought a huge stablity to the phone which was lacking with nougat... Battery backup also increased slightly... According to my usage pattern ( lots of YT videos, browsing, social media ) it hardly makes up to the evening... A little battery boost is always required in the evening and in some cases I even charged the phone twice a day... So, if you want a phone with good battery, just ignore the S7... Btw what's your budget?
