I am currently using Redmi9A and I get an average of 10hrs SOT. But I feel a 5000mah device should do better than this. I have used Infinix hot5 before with 4000mah and I normally get an average of 12hrs SOT.

Is something wrong with my 9A or it is a general trend with Xiaomi phones?

Before opting for 9A, my intention was to get hot 8 after the good experience I had with the hot5 battery and I believed hot8 will do better with its bigger battery. But after reading so much review about Xiaomi from guys here, I decided to give 9A a try. But right now I am not comfortable with the battery performance.

Please guys using infinix or other brands with 5000mah battery, how many hours of continuous screen ON time do you get?

NB;- SOT (Screen On Time)

.

OP, you constantly use your phone for 10hrs?

My phone is 4000mAh. Most times, I charge it at night. I disconnect when I wake up in the middle of the night, and I use till the next night.
Sometimes, I have to give it a little charge in the afternoon.
You should know that I'm glued to my phone, playing music almost throughout work hours, and games sometimes in the evening.
I don't know how many hours, precisely, but this is my routine

Modified (with screen shot attached)

I charged a little before going out this morning. I should be returning home with nothing less than 20%. I play music majorly. Other things would include maybe Instagram and WhatsApp, or play a game (BB Racing/ Critical Ops/Duolingo) for some minutes.
I believe that a game console (PS 3/4/5) should be used for heavy games.

Nah, no one can stay glued to his/her phone for straight 10hrs. But the SOT statistics is accumulative. For example if you use 1hr, and drop your phone, then comeback to it after 3hrs, the SOT will continue the reading from 1hr. So in total, I get 10hrs.

One last thing, I've noticed that our using Wi-Fi instead of the regular data connection saves your phone's battery

Which type of phone are you using?

Kunja2:
how many times do you charge it in a day and which device is that?

I modified my post to add details plus screenshot.
By the way, I use one of the recent Tecno Camon series. I don't want to influence anybody's decision to buy or market for the Transsion Company.

currently using Infinix hot9 with 5000mah, if it's fully charged with data on, it can last for 20 hours+

Like seriously? You mean 20hours plus of Screen on Time? Or you are referring to total standby time?

Jazzman01:

there's no way the screen can be on 24/7 but if it's fully charged, I can use it for like 2 days, I last charged it yesterday morning, still having 58 percent left, and this 58 percent can last me till tomorrow.... If it's remaining just 2 percent, I can still browse close to 2 hours..

You don't even use your phone boss, your complete SOT no even reach 4hrs

Here's mine

Still better than hot 8 and 10 lite SOT....you can get the Realme 6i...it tops the battery chart on GSMARENA.

Where did you see the SOT ? What he uploaded was just a general usage statistics.

It can obviously be rounded up, even if every thing there is calculated separately (even though he was probably using the music player concurrently with other apps) he still doesn't get up to 4hrs which is not an amazing SOT and doesn't correlate with his first statement

three days?

You must be joking. The reports I am getting from infinix users is an average of 15Hrs SOT.

Maybe you are not a heavy user. If I handle it, it will not even last for one day! I will run it down under few hours.
