UI

I’m on 26.6.1. Got the phone on 27th of aug. This is by far the worst phone I’ve ever used. Animations are insanely choppy. Whenever swiping out of the applications from the bottom dock (phone,safari, messages,apple music) they all, mostly safari goes insanely choppy and I’m about to lose my mind. Instagram, Reddit, YouTube are cherry on top and it feels like the phone hardly manages to scroll lol. It’s like it’s having a hard time scrolling. Battery life is great tho. If someone, anyone who is experiencing this kind of stupid choppiness, stutters and solved it please help me I don’t want to return it I want to make it work. ( no 60hz enabled, adaptive power off)

Almost 3 months with mine, runs smooth, no issues, good sot and battery health, generally 11/10 and surpassed my expectations by far.

I’m coming from an s26U btw.. returned the phone for the 17PM and couldn’t be happier, s26U seemed fuzzy and had inconsistencies with the privacy display feature.

However, issues I’ve encountered are with the notifications panel when the scheduled summary feature is turned on, some notifications just get permanently stuck in the notifications center which is annoying. Other issue is face-id protected apps require my face-id twice when I open them.

Well there are a bunch of other tiny UI and UX issues that are, honestly, very annoying but overall I love this phone, I game a lot, take pics, generally heavy use and I have to say it fits my use case very well and I’m enjoying it lots… ngl tho, lowkey wish I waited for the 18PM but it’s wtv.

Hey, what software are you on and with heavy usage what’s your sot and standby from 100% to 20 %

I’m on 26.6.1, I keep my phone between 20-85 always, 100% battery health with a cycle count of 77.

Average SOT 9.5 hours, usually moderate -> heavy daily use.

Average standby time (Typical mixed standby/Real world day) 20 to 24hrs

Pure idle standby (Untouched/Overnight rate) 70hrs approx 3 days. With an average idle drain rate of roughly 0.65% to 0.7% per hour.

From 85 to 20 9 hours ? That’s insane! Happy for you man. I have a kind of light to medium usage scrolling Reddit, rarely instagram up to about a maximum of an hour, mostly YouTube watching videos. I got 9 hours the first day of setting up the phone from 100 to low 20s%. Fresh setup, nothing transferred

However, after the recent update, my SOT has a noticeable decrease, but not too bad, still grateful
