Phone (3a) battery life is stellar!

Anonymous1235

I found out that my phone can go a long time without being charged, I only use it for light gaming, internet and shopping, school and photography. And yet, I have at least 14hrs SOT, on 77% battery left.

Here is the screenshot

I have most apps turned off in the background to prevent excessive battery drain, and I also keep adaptive brightness on, using Extra Dark Mode, Night Light to protect my eyes, and charge limit of 90%. I have to charge it every 2 ½ days, which is lovely!!!

Anonymous1235 great.. I’ve always believed that 3a series can get good sot but there is something wrong with os…

Is it for today? Because there no day selected from friday to Thursday…?? 🤔

Anonymous1235 It seems there’s been a misunderstanding about how the battery graph works. If you don’t charge the phone to 100%, the screen‑on time doesn’t reset. The graph shows the battery was charged three times up to 80%, so the SOT hours are cumulative. No phone can reach 14 hours of real screen‑on time with a single charge.

I also have a 3a Pro, and those spikes you see on that graph is when the device is being charged, so according to that graph you had it on charge on more than 3 separate occasions or the graph would show your device flatlining and/or dropping/downward slant only. No spikes at all.

PinoLY Ok, sorry for my misunderstanding. I got a bit confused when I thought about it for a second after posting this…

Bruh, That shows SOT since last full charge , not since last charged lol. U need to click on the bar to get the actual screen time per day. Actually if you notice, nothing OS has one of the worst battery life as I have been using this nothing phone 3 since a couple of weeks. Battery drains of for nothing. This OS needs a lot of optimization for real, its a half cooked product. but I support them coz they tryna do somethin different.

Actually to correct 2 points, firstly, my power button issue was in fact the periscope lense components which rattle when shaken, though I do not shake the phone deliberately. It stops the moment you engage the lens 3x zoom for example. I’m informed this is quite normal. Secondly, I understand that the battery life is accumalative if not charged fully to 100% but the graph showed 3 spikes indicating a charging process had taken place. And you are quite incorrect my 3a Pro has managed 14hrs SOT on numerous occasions from a single charge from 0-100 % Agreed not every time, as you know it would depend on my usage etc
