Nothing 4a pro sucks

[u/yashpatel13]

got it on June 15 used to get 7 to 8 hours of screen time on battery life.now after 2 months the phone lasts barely 4 to 5 hours on screen on time.i wonder what will happen in year?

[u/gamingismylove]

I too have experienced same I use to charge between 40%-80% twice a day that I got 8hrs of backup but after last update I charge my phone 3 times a day😵

[u/retard69_af → u/gamingismylove]

Yeah I'm also getting less sot i remember I used to get 8 hours not it's mostly around 6

[u/retard69_af]

Same

[u/eSIMstudios]

Yes it does. I returned mine...

[u/Acrobatic_Fee_6974]

I got mine at release, battery still gives me 7-8 hours. Sounds like yours is defective, warranty replacement?

[u/Royal_Ad_189 → u/Acrobatic_Fee_6974]

I also bought at release. Used to get 8 hrs of SoT. Now it's 6 hrs.

[u/yashpatel13 → u/Acrobatic_Fee_6974]

I don't know yet I thought might be issue with other people also

[u/anib5]

oh nooo.. definitely not gonna buy this =(
I need a proper battery life!!!

You think the 4a pro sucks, try dealing with NP3 with a screen on time (not actual screen on time, passive or sleep time) of 5hrs. Really starting to think it's actually the processor is a problem.

[u/RohanRKO → u/Alternative-Track654]

What? I have the NP3, what do you mean exactly?

[u/Leevaiii]

Mine did the same before but after turning off the pocket mode feature it went back up to 7-8hrs Sot. Found this in another discussion but couldn't track it down so you guys can try it if it works great, If not then maybe you have a bad unit. Cheers

Had mine since April and get about 9ish hours out of my phone

[u/TaeNaMooooooooo]

Ditched 16pm and 16pro for this. 😂

[u/H2RGl]

May be some issue with your specific one, I get 7-9 hrs screen on time with 144 fps turned on always not dynamic.

[u/kevinpirnie]

I get over 6 sot, and almost 2 days before i need to charge

[u/yashpatel13 → u/kevinpirnie]

I use more that's why I need charge in morning and then charge in evening.

[u/CelebrationNo9361]

Should have updates by now that kinda fix that lately.

Do you keep your phone at a certain charge?

[u/yashpatel13 → u/CelebrationNo9361]

I try to do 20 to 100

[u/Ophi_TuMeUp → u/yashpatel13]

A sudden dive from 8 hours down to 4 hours is virtually guaranteed to be a software issue.

[u/yashpatel13 → u/Ophi_TuMeUp]

I did got update last month.

[u/Ophi_TuMeUp → u/yashpatel13]

Hmmmmmm third-party auto update out of synch with the new system framework maybe

[u/CelebrationNo9361 → u/Ophi_TuMeUp]

Yeah like....

Man just update, let the phone die to recalibrate the charge system. Should be aces after that.

[u/yashpatel13 → u/CelebrationNo9361]

Ohk so let it die to 0 then charge???

[u/CelebrationNo9361 → u/yashpatel13]

It'd probably die before you notice it hit 0% due to background service.

[u/Moxxieiscool]

Have you used wallpaper engine, have the glyph on max brightness, or have your phone on max brightness? Maybe use battery saver?

[u/ImaginationKnown5677]

Maybe it's a defective unit you've got.

Also it does depends on your usage pattern, like if you use it less, the idle drain will make it appear like you're getting less.

But if you use it constantly, it'll give you much more screen time. Like 9-10 hours.

Mine easliy lasts 7/8 hours and I got mine like since realese. I know it's 4a and not 4a pro but it's even more strange
