My Test with the NP3 on NYE:

Walking 20.000 Steps over 5 hours.
Taking 320 pictures and 7 videos (standard an together they are 10 minutes long).
Always on Glyph
Driving 5 Hours using Google Maps and Bluetooth for music.
Having 80% Battery
Energy saving mode starting at 30%

After all that threw the whole day, i was left with 10% battery.
I really think this is awesome!

Pravin-b didn’t test the camera, did only some basic pics and seems okay. Also battery backup is great, no drain or some weird stuff. Go for it, make the update.

FX-n hi

I didn’t update the latest security updates, i observed in past 2 days there is a sudden drop in battery during night times when it’s idle 15 TO 20% Drop. Wrong stats in shown battery usage. As I closed all the apps before sleeping around 12.30 am.

Hey guys, I have been using NP (3). But I feel something’s off about the battery draining issue. Back then moto phones with 5000mah batteries used to last very longer like 2 days with regular use and heavy use too. But today we have 5500mAh battery phone still don’t last a single day with regular use. I don’t know why are they not optimising it. C’mon Nothing team, You guys are really something that is why we trust you guys and we want you to take this into consideration. Checking many people reviews and battery drain tests too. This phone was very bas with the optimisation.

What are you thoughts on this?

TarunAbhishek I get my Phone 3a to have at least 17Hrs SOT, because I restrict every non-essential app from background usage, and I do not have many notifications.

Wish-

TarunAbhishek Have a look. It’s worth trying.

I have purchased the Nothing 3 . I am facing the following issues.

While watchin the Amazon Videos, mobile will go to sleep within 3 min.
Battery is not so good, as it is draining off quickly. Ex. Yesterday evening 6.30pm ( on 26.01.2026) battery was fully charged and today now 12.16pm (27.01.2026) hardly 31% attached screen image. Moreover I have kept the battery saver ON since yesterday evening and while sleeping I had kept the Mobile data/Internet off for 8hr.

Previously I have Xiomi 11 lite NE 5g with aprrox-4500mAH battery and I am feeling it was really good. I am the first who opted for Nothing-3 in my whole family. Do some help plz.

Hello all nothing community, new nothing phone user here and how to get a good battery life on my nothing phone 3

I am very casual user with using social media apps in wifi 90% of the day and mobile data the rest 10%

I use apps mostly like youtube, Instagram, reddit, browsing and listening to songs.

I have disabled the ram plus and enables the adaptive battery. Disabled background activity for apps like youtube, telegram, Instagram, reddit.

I get sot mostly 6.30 hours. Is it possible to extend this battery life by changing any other settings .

Additionally i use git hub apps like edgest and accubattery which i am suspicious if it could drain more battery ? Any data regarding this ?
