Left my phone at 97% before sleeping. Woke up this morning with 93%.

As I'm typing this, the battery is 68%.

I have not watched movie or played any music today. All I've been doing is chatting and browsing. Most times, I'm not even using the phone.

In fact, once I press the phone small, 1% will leave the battery is few minutes.

The battery capacity is 5000mah. Even my Itel S15 that has 3000mah doesn't drain this fast.

I just bought this phone in the 3rd week of June.

This is very frustrating. The phone is fully updated.

Do a factory reset if you just did an update.
Or check if you have some settings turned on

Check your battery usage, it will help you to know the app that is consuming your battery

Rasome:
Screenshot your battery usage

I factory reset my phone about an hour ago so I'm still trying to see changes.

Xiaomi seriously need to do something about this battery life of a thing. I don look for solution tire.

If I restrict an app from running in the background, to my surprise, I still receive notifications from that app and I see them running in the background.

Post pictures of your battery usage so that we will be able to ascertain where the problem is coming from.

you need to check what is consuming your battery

I have checked and checked and checked and checked. I don check tire. Before factory resetting my phone, I restricted all the apps on my phone except WhatsApp. But that did not solve the problem.

I don't have games in this phone. Never watched movie with it. I use it the same way I used my Itel S15. With the same apps. Yet, this battery life I'm getting is very annoying. 5000mah is almost double 3000mah. Yet, my S15 lasts longer

This is battery usage

ModCaller:

I don't stay up to 5 minutes in any of those apps. I just breeze in and out because I don't have any time consuming task in those apps.

I have restricted all of those downloaded apps from running in background except WhatsApp in a bid to reduce the battery consumption. Yet it continues.

how many hours of screen on time do you get from the phone

Rasome:
how many hours of screen on time do you get from the phone

Not something I can estimate. Because some hours will pass and I will only press the phone for less than 10 minutes per hour. Just to check Nairaland front page.

The longest time the phone has lasted between charge is a day and half of light usage. My GPS is always off except an app I'm using requires it.

The battery drains seriously even when I'm not using it. That is my main concern.

Attached is the my screen on time for today (8hrs+) The time is at the top. Device: RN9 Pro. Age: 2 years.

My 2 year old phone gives me 9hrs of SoT.

I am a heavy user myself so I no understand how other people use their phones.

Advice:

1. Charge to 100, drain to zero and charge back to 100 with the phone off. This is known as battery calibration.

2. Force restart your device. Hold the power button till the phone vibrates and restart. This should clear persistent apps running in the background.

I'll do this and give feedback. Thanks

6 hours sot and I'm still having 80%. REDMI Note 9s of 2 + years.

This is uptime, not screen time.

Look at screenshot I posted. It'll help you locate screen time.

SoT is calculated when you charge to 100 and drain to less than 20% without charging the device. This your chart cannot pass for an SoT submission.

Please what's my sot?

Look below the chart, you'll see a tab for screen. It reads 4hrs+ there.

Recalibrate the Phone just as Atheist and proud said.

Rubbish, you have recharged. The actual value was at around 60% according to the graph.

Guy just forget it. The truth is that Xiaomi phones cannot beat itel, infinix or Tecno interms of battery life. I was getting about 12hrs SOT on my hot 5 of 4000mah before switching to this my current Redmi of 5000mah and this one can barely last for 10hrs SOT. Their MIUI is buggy and not optimized for battery efficiency.

Believe it or not, updating it is the main problem. All those update has a way of downgrade the phone.

He's a marketer, he's just doing his job. A very big 9jeriyan YouTuber don open their nyansh. If you noticed, one of their very aggressive alternates don go hide.

Just ignore. It's not worth it.

SoT 9 hours at 2%. Very light usage.

I'm waiting for the phone to off so that I can do the calibration recommended.
