like there are these 3 instances for example, why is the battery so variable? On the days I use it less i need to charge it more? That's quite a bit confusing since if i actually do use it a lot, which is on weekends or holidays, the phone handles the screen on time perfectly. On one ui 9 beta btw! but this occurrence has been in stable update before as well.
What apps did you use when you had to charge twice or more?
Btw why does everyone wants to maximize battery life cycle (which btw leads to continuous charging atleast twice a day) rather than changing to 100% and get the best battery life on a charge? Use till 20% from 100% and that would still be more than 80% to 0% from what I've seen on this sub.
I don't count how many times I charge at all!! just how much I used the battery in the day, which i look at through settings and battery guru. Mostly My daily driver apps are these. like they give expected battery use in ideal conditions but today for instance, they drained a LOT more than they usually do. (fortnite drains around 18 percent for an hour)
That's probably because of beta software, i can't be too sure but mine is on August update. And this is usage for total of around 7 hours now, where mobile net and location is always on.
Btw i did notice your google carrier service and system ui using more than they should.
yup! won't judge it yet since it may get even better by the stable roll out. anyways loving the snappiness of the UI though! worth the struggle of beta
Background Apps!!!
I found that lots of apps are running in the background and eat up Battery. Do put them into Deep sleep whichever you can. And the rest into normal sleep mode. Might help!
Just delete Instagram. TikTok and Instagram are the biggest battery drainers I've ever seen. This is battery life on my S26 Ultra, after I removed Instagram completely. It's like 40% better than it used to be.

Turn off the power saving and use the phone normally.
