MickH 211 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 How's the battery performing for you guys. I find it a little heavy with moderate use. Battery Pro tells me I have around 1 and a half days on full charge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hook 3,020 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 One and a half days for a modern smartphone, depending on how you define "moderate use," sounds pretty good. On the days I was testing the heck out of mine, I got down to 50% at bedtime. I consider that good. 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
divstar 164 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Average usage (some video, some music, some browsing, emails and games) works for around 36 hours at the moment. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pops 13 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 No complains. But my usage these few days were in a home setting. But I have to say, the qc really charges it up fast. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But of course the almost 7h screen on time can be expected to eat a LOT of battery by it self, depending of the brightness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The signal would have been like that most of the 20 hours as it was mostly spent right here in my attic where the wifi is far, I do have to say some of my devices get slightly better wifi here (and some don't, given the distance I think it's acceptably working). Additionally most of that firefox time was playing youtube, and i had youtube from firefox overlayed on discord as picture-in-picture a fair amount of the time in that ( highly recommended: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-background-play-fix/ ). And I spent some time video calling. So I think it did great :). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have to agree heavy video usage will drain it fast especially if hardware accelerated which it probably was. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MickH 211 Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 I actually find the Pro1 one is quite conservative during use. I've been comparing it with my Sailfish Sony XperiaX. The Pro1 doesn't drain as quick during prolonged use online. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

auvo.salmi 135 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I get usually 3 days with one charge. But my screen usage is about 1-1,5h per day. Sometimes I listen to Spotify or some podcasts for hours (but almost no screen usage), but still have easily two days per charge. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GameboyRMH 18 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Impressive, with this kind of run time I may limit the maximum charge level to 80%~90% to extend the battery's useful lifespan. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I only ever saw charge level limiting feature on the MotoZ phones when they were charged by the attached battery mod through the Moto Mod connector.

Good question, I don't know, the documentation doesn't mention that. Many phones come with an option to disable quick charging in Settings-->Battery, I don't know if the Pro1 does.
