I'm using note 20 ultra for past 2 months and I am really disappointed with the battery life of Exynos 990.
Will Samsung do something to improve it in coming updates?
I have specifically noted that battery drains much faster when phone is on standby rather than while watching multimedia or YouTube. I'm using 3G only and not 4G even. I have put most of non-essential apps in sleep or deep sleep mode.
Also I have noted that battery drains faster from 100 to 85% and from 20 to 0%. In between these it drains comparetively slower. I have done factory reset and also installed firmware afresh but situation is same.
Samsung please do something to improve this issue of your most flagship device.

Besides above settings do some more settings to save more battery life and observe for next 1-2 days, it will give a noticeable difference

3. Device care>battery >power mode>select "optimised" and "adaptive power saving".

And then click on "app power management >
And enable these 2 options.
A. Adaptive battery
B. Put Unused Apps to Sleep.

4. Long press on each app specially 3rd party(LIKE FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE) and rarely used apps and also ON "GOOGLE APP" as well, then click on>app info> then go to these 3 options below on by one

A. Mobile data> allow background data usage>off

B. Battery >allow background activity >off

C. Notification >disable unnecessary notifications like promotional and unnecessary reminder notifications.

5. Go to settings> privacy > permission manager > location> and check which app have accessing your location all the time and if not using that apps then deny access or set as " allowed only while in use"
As unnecessary location access by 3rd party app causing battery drain.

6. Go to settings > Google > on device sharing> check which 3rd party apps present there for e.g. if you use paytm , paytm will shared data to show recommendation and suggestion which also cause battery drain

7. Go to settings > account and backup> account > checkwhich app syncing automatically there and if any app which not necessary to auto sync then click on it and disable sync.

8. Go to settings >apps>search "weather" >click on settings icon right side > change "auto refresh" settings as per your requirements and disable some unnecessary reminder. ( due to auto refresh it continuously consuming battery?)


9. If you use Facebook frequently then disable "auto play video"
And if you are mostly uses mobile, on wifi connection then also disable "auto play videos" in YouTube.

10. Google >click on 3dot at right top corner>usage and diagnostics >off this option.

Situation is still the same. No noticable change even after doing what you suggested. I don't think this can be improved because the problem lies in substandard hardware which Samsung is dumping in Asian and European markets and also because of poor optimization of their hardware and software. It's better to shift to iphone or even a simple Vivo phone which has SD730G which performs better than 990. People should not be impressed or guided by benchmark numbers. It's the real life performance that matters most.
Anyway, thanks again for the suggestions.
