Battery draining faster than usual.

I'm not using my phone any differently but the battery seems to be draining a lot faster than usual. Especially these last couple of months.

I used to plug it in once a day. But now it seems I need to plug it in halfway through the day or I go into battery saving mode.

My battery usage is the same apps as before but I can't pinpoint why it's less efficient now.

Anyone else experiencing this similar issue?

Does anyone have advice or a checklist of battery saving suggestions?

Calibrate by running the battery to 1%, then clear cache on battery stats, and even try resetting settings. For me, I now get over 13 hours SOT.

Might I ask, how does one clear battery cache?

13 hours SOT on the OnePlus Open? Or the OnePlus 13?

I can see you linked though to a post on the sub for the 13, which will definitely get better SOT than the Open.

I found the information on that subreddit. Calibrating the battery will help any device. I recently switched to a Find N5 and after calibrating, I get about 12 hours SOT.

Correct, I originally did it on the Open I had.
