*Note I am  OneUI 2.1 software on Samsung Galaxy S10 plus which is running on Android 10, so few settings menu will differ 

But the tips remain same for stable version too.

First let me add battery stats

25th Nov SOT 1 hr 11 mins 
26th Nov SOT 5 hr 54 mins
27th Nov SOT 0 hr 26 mins
Total SOT      = 7.5 hrs with close to 39 hrs idle time 

Below are few points which will help you to get extra juice from your phone battery. 

1. Settings - Connections - WiFi - Advanced 

Enable wifi power saving mode

2. Settings - Connections - More Connections settings

Disable Nearby device scanning

3. Settings - Location - Improve Accuracy 

Disable wifi and Bluetooth scanning 


image

4. Settings - Device Care - Battery - App power management 

Enable Adaptive battery and put unused apps to sleep 

After that click on sleeping apps or Deep sleeping apss based on software it will appear both or only sleeping apps and add all those apps which you want it in sleep mode.

Be cautious here don't add apps like keyboard if you are using third party like SwiftKey.

5. Settings - Apps 

Click on all those apps which you see are running in background as per battery stats 

For e.g. Facebook, click on it then you will see mobile data and battery

Click on mobile data and disable Allow background data usage

Now click on battery, disable Allow background activity.

Just FYI I am running on medium power saving battery mode. 

One more tip: Enable dark mode and use black wallpapers on your AMOLED screens to get more battery.

Check in sleeping apps, may be Google services are added in sleeping apps instead of deep sleeping apps. If it is in sleeping apps then remove and add it into deep sleeping apps.
