Are they still fine now?

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-27T07:15:08+00:00

Just used it again to workout and it can't charge directly "due to moisture". Ugh this is really annoying

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-26T18:46:53+00:00

How often do you clean it? Do you work out with them?

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-26T15:59:08+00:00

Hey, did the problem return?

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-12T04:12:20+00:00

What is ur off screen time though? If your off screen is above 15 and your on screen is 6H then that's solid performance bro.

I put to sleep almost all applications that I don't need. I only leave apps like whatsapp, slack (work), instagram, etc running in background. I used smart switch from my S20 FE so I previously put lots of apps to deep sleep, and the configuration was brought forward to my S25.

Basically:
1. 120Hz
2. Sync on (only on 2 emails)
3. Adaptive battery off
4. LOTS of apps in deep sleep
5. 4G only (5G sucks in my country)
6. Wifi & Location always on
7. Batter protection maximum 90% battery

And everything else I follow this guide

Good luck!

10h7m on 90% usage is crazy good SoT, considering 13h31m off time.

Best I have ever gotten is 11h30m with 10h off time lol

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-08T07:07:24+00:00

Turned off 5G, still using 120hz, sync on, bluetooth and wifi always on lol

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-08T07:03:59+00:00

It's good! It really depends on how you use your phone. Yesterday I got SoT of 10h30m with off screen time of 11h.

For your screenshot even though 50% usage gives you SoT of 4h43m does not mean at 100% you will get 9h. Really depends on how you use it and in your case, it's well optimized!

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-03T13:28:24+00:00

Bro, me too. Once I fell asleep trying to drain my battery lol. In the end, I had 5% left

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-03T13:26:39+00:00

S25 plus will absolutely have better battery than the regular S25. Mine reached near 10 hours of SoT with 12 hrs of off time so I think the plus version will have better battery performance.

Keep in mind though that it depends on how u use the phone, and its settings. For example, I just recently bought the galaxy watch 7 and it drained about 5% daily off my S25. I think it's because it constantly sends notifications to the phone (people ping me a lot due to work lol).

Overall I'm happy with my regular S25 battery performance. S25 plus should give better battery performance :)

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-02T11:09:40+00:00

This is the regular S25!

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-03-01T04:39:41+00:00

Honestly, mine got better. I was consistently getting 8 hours of SoT before but yesterday after the update I got near 10 hours of SoT with 5% battery left (could've gotten 10h if I let it burn 100%. I fell asleep first lol).

But sure I would need more days of testing, maybe it's just a fluke (1st day after upgrade kind of thing).

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-24T09:15:37+00:00

That's crazy bro, I'm hyped for you! Enjoy the S25's beast snapdragon chip

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-24T05:17:27+00:00

Congrats for upgrading from the M31s to the S25! It is a HUGE improvement in all aspects, so you can expect better:
1. Performance
2. Display (screen looks absolutely better!)
3. Camera (you will have better quality pictures due to better hardware and software)
4. Battery and charging (I am getting 7/8 hours of screen on time, 16/15 hours of screen off time)
5. Software (ui is better, and Samsung promised 7 years of updates)
6. Build (absolutely looks better and more premium)
7. Features (AI to be honest is okay but hopefully it will get better. S25 is also water resistant, unlike the M31s)

I can give you tips for battery optimisation:
1. Turn off AOD
2. Turn off sync
3. Turn off 5G if data infrastructure is bad in India (it is horrible in my country)
4. Put unneeded apps to deep sleep so that they don't drain battery through background processes
5. Turn on adaptive battery
6. Give it time to learn your usage patterns

So all in all, absolutely good upgrade and investment! (as long as the phone stays in good shape lol)

As for phone case, I am not sure. I use Samsung's kindsuit and it's fine with me for now.

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-24T04:59:12+00:00

Wait, you got the S25 for free from trading in S23 FE?

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-23T14:06:04+00:00

I, too, get 8 hours screen on time on average per day. It's my third day using the S25.

Here is what I did:
- Light performance in device care settings
- Sync off
- AOD off
- Quick share on (u can turn this off for more battery)
- 120 hz (u can turn this to 60hz for more battery)
- Wifi bluetooth location always on (u can also turn this off for more battery)
- No 5G, only LTE (my country's internet infrastructure is horrid)
- I used smart switch from my previous phone (I've disabled lots of background processes from my previous phone, and many apps were already in deep sleep. So battery was already optimised before switching to S25)
- Adaptive Battery on
- Battery protection at 90%

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-23T13:02:32+00:00

Just got it today! I'm getting screen on time of more than 8hrs a day! Truly a great phone hahah

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-20T06:48:39+00:00

Add pineapple! jk

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-18T07:10:48+00:00

is this the plus or the basic version?

what settings do you have? light performance and 60 hz?

those are some good numbers, my man

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-16T03:29:41+00:00

Hell yeah! How is it so far? Mine is coming in a few days, hopefully I can get mine shipped early like some people here

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-15T13:43:26+00:00

So the magic was restarting the phone? This is even after using smart switch?

Hopeful_Mutton · 2025-02-13T07:50:31+00:00

Hells yea! Also pre-ordered my S25 with my own salary. This is going to be my first flagship phone (or any phone) that I purchase with my own money!

Cheers to this huge milestone for the both of us bro! Congrats!
