I would like to know why my battery life is trash? I get like 10 hours of video if I'm lucky screen brightness is at 35% and I have battery saver medium on. It's weird that my tab a 2016 got 19h of screen time with video and music streaming but this new tablet can't even hit the advertised 13h. Also when will it get Android 10? The 2019 tab a got Android 10 first which is messed up. Thx for helping ☺️

The fact is, I use DEX mode in my tablet exclusively with a USB C to HDMI adapter because when I enable it, it is only when projecting videos/movies to my big screen TV to avoid ugly black bars all around. Do you even understand my use case scenario, or is it too complicated for you?

I personally use DEX mode when I want to play/project 4K videos stored in my tab S5e to my big screen TV. Wireless mirroring is convenient but there is degradation in playback smoothness and video quality especially for high bit rate videos (4K). Wired connection is still best especially for high bit rate 4K videos for maximum video quality and smoothness (no stutters, frame skips or quality loss from video compression).
For that wired connection, I use a third party USB C to HDMI adapter (UGREEN). I enable DEX mode and the tablet becomes a mousepad. The reason I enable DEX mode in the wired connection is so that the 16:9 TV doesn't mirror the 16:10 tablet screen which creates ugly black bars all around a 16:9 movie or video I'm viewing.

Extrapolating, that's around 10hrs offline movie watching with screen mirrored to smart TV via Wifi direct. It may last longer if you only watch the offline download on the tablet screen as wifi is off. Streaming directly Netflix using mobile LTE data will certainly give you shorter viewing time than that because LTE consumes a lot of battery.

Anonymous, 30 Jul 2020Yes you can send and receive calls from the tab S5e. I meant only the LTE version of the Tab S5e can make or receive voice calls. The WIFI only version cannot because there's no SIM slot.

You said you use Nova launcher on your phone so I don't understand what makes it weird in a tablet. But if you really prefer Samsung's limited launcher, then you can continue complaining about its small icon sizes. I won't bother anymore.

It's called user experience, being able to change things without fiddling around elsewhere. This is mainly a problem of the integrated launcher by Samsung.

Anyway, I'm going to ignore you now since you clearly have a problem with other peoples opinions and preferences, and don't have any useful input. Icons were bigger on Android 9 with this tablet and native launcher. I'm sure you still don't get it but whatever.
