Here it is, Just trust this and do it! This is how i fixed my RN8PRO battery draining issues, and it worked for me. I had battery issues after upgrading to Android 10, my SoT got as low as 7hrs but after following certain YouTube videos & XDA website im now getting 11hrs of SoT as it was before. Hope this works for you too. Here's what i did:
I cannot share direct link of XDA as it may not be in policy of GSMArena, I think. Don't get flowed by negative comments for this procedure & just do it.

Main Thing :

I used ''XiaomiADBFastbootTools''(ADB Uninstaller) to uninstall the following default bloatware installed on my phone. Such as..

Analytics
Android Accessibility suite
app vault
browser
calander
catchlog
compass
digital wellbeing
downloads
FM Radio
facebook
feedback
freeform
games
google app
google lens
joyose
MSA (It is a junk ad application, remove ASAP!)
Market feedback agent
mi browser
mi credit
mi drop
mi pay
mi video
mi wallpaper
miuiDaemon
Music
PAI
PartnerBookmarks
Quick Apps
Quick Ball
Scanner
WMServices
Weather

Uninstall all these without any second thought. My phone is working much better after uninstalling all these pre installed apps. After doing this, i saw sudden increase in my battery efficiency be it battery backup or SoT.

During testing i got two days of battery backup & around 10hrs of SoT from 90% charge to 5% charge. And now from 100% charge to currently I'm at 60% with SoT of exactly 6hrs 42min.
OMG i wish i would have shared Screenshots here.

Secondary things i did was:
- Enabled Dark Mode
- Disabled Auto Start option for all apps
- In battery settings, i enabled 'clear cache when device is locked - upto 5 minutes'
- Using Nova Launcher (Prime) - APK Downloaded
- Force stopped apps which i don't use frequently such as Facebook.
- Using Firefox as my default browser.

Hope this helps :)

    Why can't the sound of announcements be separated from the sound of a bell? Its so bad for that!

          MarcoPolo, 08 Jul 2020Wtf????Marcopolo & everyone..I did some tweaks to my phone which restored my battery backup & SoT.
          I'm testing it currently & I'll share method here tomorrow or day after tomorrow. Stay connected.

          I'm not feeling well that's why i havent tested my phone much now. But I'll be back with positive results.

                groot123, 07 Jul 2020Redmi Note 8 Pro 6GB/64GB or Redmi Note 9S 6GB/128GB? Which... moreRedmi Note 8 Pro easy.

                But the 9S you mention will have more storage, better battery life and will run cooler.

                            I was also getting 10 hts SoT on Android 9 but now 8 it decreased to 8hrs SoT after Android 10.

                            I'm a bit sad why it is like this. Android updates must enhance battery life not decrease it.

                            My phone was on 90% last night, when i woke up phone standby took around 11% battery. No gps or bluetooth was on.
