Iā€™m currently on Android 16 with One UI 8.0. For the calibration, I charged the phone from 0% to 100% and used it normally for the whole day, the battery naturally ended at 18%, and I noted the results from that single full charge.</SPAN><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":small_blue_diamond:">šŸ”¹</span> Battery Usage Result:</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Total battery used: 82% in 1 day</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Screen-on time: 7 hours 8 minutes</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Battery left: 18% remaining</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Standby drain: Around 13% without screen usage</DIV><DIV><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":right_arrow:">āž”ļø</span> All of this was on one full charge, and it comfortably lasted the whole day.</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":small_blue_diamond:">šŸ”¹</span> Connections &amp; Settings During This Cycle:</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Galaxy Watch6 connected via Bluetooth for full 24 hours</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Bluetooth: Always ON</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>GPS/Location: Always ON</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Wi-Fi + Mobile Data: Mixed usage</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Sync: Turned ON for around 1 hour</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Always On Display: Enabled all day</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Performance profile: Standard</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV>Display resolution: Max setting (QHD/WQHD)</DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><DIV><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":small_blue_diamond:">šŸ”¹</span> Observation:</DIV><DIV>Even with constant connectivity and all major features active, I still got over 7 hours of SOT with 18% battery left.
