It seems that power consumption is more serious on 10.80 version.

APP will not show up in battery usage

Mobile network standby is second only to bright screen

There is also an album to delete photos SD card problem. . .

I have not reported much hope.

Mobile data on stand by?? Then it's all bcos of play services as always.. I always turn on data saver atleast to limit it. But play services are play services...

With latest Google policy there is limitation to access other app data usage and that might be the reason the support app can't show all battery consuming apps. But still it wil show cpu engaged background running apps. Google did made some changes recently.

yes i also did turn on data saver atleast to limit it and turn on background data limit , i found this was on Wifi instead of mobile data...

Is it convenient for you to share the power usage of your mobile phone?

Does google have a source of evidence? Other phones equipped with 9.0 are quite normal.

Recent Lifelog update did removed all app usage statistics bcos of Google.. after that support app also starts not showing app usage and details.. thought Sony cud fix that..in later support app update but still battery usage not shown.. only just we can the drop of battery graph to think it's normal or not..

I was watching a 4K uhd movie right now battery is now at 55% from 90. Iam attaching the battery graph , u can see the fall. And I wil later attach normal usage battery graph so u can compare.. 3 hour 4k movie watched.

That dip in graph was continuous chrome browsing, YouTube , Spotify.

Pictures got loaded up. I didn't know Sony forums need atleast 2 days minimum to load up pictures posted.

I mostly charge the phone from 40% onwards..

Quick charging turns on and battery temp reaches to 45C til 70%charge and then temp goes down to 41C and continues normal charging...

During sleep Xperia assist runs sleep mode.

WiFi always turned on.. none of the screenshots with WiFi turned off.

I have some 14 apps restricted in background running.. but most of it doesn't need to be active .. all messengers run all along.

Turning off image video enhancement and restricting Lifelog has shown much improvements in live phone usage battery drain.

And 1 more thing is since presence of WiFi I set GSM 2g only network. When outside only I switch to 4G. The above all screenshots are WiFi usage only. Will post later how it is when in 4G ..

Guess everybody can compare battery drain level compared to mine.

WiFi and mobile data off with stamina mode and 2G only

Also try holding down power button whilst at the same time holding down volume up.

Wait for one vibration then a few seconds more then wait for a further 3 then power back on

this resets cache etc-like taking your battery out on the older phones.

Wait a few hours for everything to settle and then try again

The experience is not very good in Stamima ,even in Equipment performance first...

my xzp ,

Stand by for one night about 8 hours shut down wifi ，almost No power consumption .

Standby when mobile data is on, up to 2% of battery power

but if using in daylife even wifi or mobile data (3/4G) ，battery power will be faster down...
