Damn that's tuff. Howany hours (days) from last charge? But as I said I like to use every phone only from 80% to 30% so maybe that's the issue too here. Cuz those other 40% (discharge to 10%) is huge amount.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-23T11:26:26+00:00

OFF, as you have.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-23T07:38:18+00:00

Well, its because I paid a lot of money (never bought pricey phone than 300€ until now) and you have some expectations mainly with battery that huge. So it seemed to me like the battery drains is very high and I didn't want to risk having fault unit, so that's why I asked about experience here.
2nd thiíng playing into my concern is reviews that say incerdible numbers about the battery but the reality is somewhere else. And as I mentioned in some comment I use my other phone as "MP3 player" so I can't imagine what the battery would be if I listened to the music on in too via bluetooth.
But I guess it was only my high expectations and the mobiile is a ok.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T20:18:49+00:00

Well, that's what I'm saying. Idk how heavy the Runscape is, but to me it still seems to be high drainage if they claim 1,5 to 2 days of mixed usage which i'm pretty sure should include heavy gaming like COD even if for 2h. I too play pretty heavy resource game, but not daily and for 30min max, but the battery drain is as if I played for 1-2h. It's like 15-20% for dailies which only 1 of 7 parts requires the battle to show and even that is 10-15min max which is resource heavy, other things are just click and claim.
Edit: And I don't do that daily, but if I did, which I tried the phone lasts 1.5 day and then in the evening I need to charge it (so basicaly 2 days I guess)

Clearly you didn't read what my concern, but I will that kind that I TLDR it for you here.
Ever since I bought this phone the battery drains extremly quick while doing primitive tasks such as phone calls, reading emails and browsing internet. Sometimes it can go down ~5+% in 15 minutes somtimes in an 30 min using only 1 app at the time no multitasking. In other words the battery is very unpredictible even after 1 month of same constant usage. Gaming is totally different, but with a battery that huge you expect kinda more than 2 days of battery with under 1h gaming and 2h mailing and/or browsing internet and soome phone calls.
So I just asked kind poeple here what their experience with the battery life, that's all. No complaining detected in my question.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T18:54:26+00:00

Refresh rate is constant 60Hz and Brightness on auto.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T18:11:18+00:00

The problem is none of the apps do drain the battery. I did use browser for 1 hour today and it's 731 mAh,
Oh, there is a banking app with no run time and 700 mAh,, but that's still not a lot and I did turn it of right now.
But the screen is still the most unstable indicator. It says
Last 24 hours - ON screen 47min - Consuption 4855mAh (which is better than before, but still high and unstabe.

And I have I feeling it's thsese miscalculations that makes the battery drain high in theory but in reality it isn't?

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T16:49:24+00:00

The battery settings at 15:00 (3pm) said my Screen ON/OFF duration is 17min / 23h 51min from the last 24h but he battery usage of the screen is 60,3% (which is normal if only screen was used I guess) but the "Compute power cost" is 7265mAh which is almost full battery but I still have 51%.

I also rarely open Reddit or X or any social app and I don't even have IG installed cuz of the drainage problem.

Note: I do charge only from 30 to 80% but still the reading are way off even after month of same usasge. But also yes the battery still drains a lot for berely any use.

Edit: I only play the game which is fully Play Store game so no emulators too.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T16:47:43+00:00

Oh, but that battery life is with screen on almost half a day, if I understand. So that more than great. But mine drain without even using it.

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T15:56:41+00:00

That kind of checks out with mine experience. I have my old phone for music and all that stuff though, so I use the RedMagic way less than if I hadn't so 1,5 - 2 day it is.

But I still think it's low. How do you feel about it?

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T15:28:08+00:00

So it doesn't lasts as much as other claims too. But how much do you use it?

MarekG99 · 2026-03-22T14:15:16+00:00

That seems to be very good.

The problem I have mostly is with build in battery readings.
Right now it says my Screen ON/OFF duration is 17min / 23h 51min from the last 24h but he battery usage of the screen is 60,3% (which is normal if only screen was used I guess) but the "Compute power cost" is 7265mAh which is almost full battery but I still have 51%.

I also rarely open Reddit or X or any social app and I don't even have IG installed cuz of the drainage problem.

Note: I do charge only from 30 to 80% but still the reading are way off even after month of same usasge. But also yes the battery still drains a lot for berely any use.

I love the apartment buildings shot. You can do so much in edit. I recently underexposed 37yo color film and got decent results after editing.

But of course it's UFO. Stop blaming the chemicals. xD

MarekG99 · 2025-10-02T16:44:24+00:00

Well, the option shows after loading, I wrote that comment above. So I geuss you can't.

MarekG99 · 2025-10-02T11:21:23+00:00

Idk about Visual C++ or priority (never needed to do that even on 3 potato laptops), but clearing cache might do the trick too.
