Hi guys,
about a week ago I updated my Z2 to the newest marshmallow software with Stamina and since that update I have serious problems with my device.
Some days ago I was on a trip where my device was running extremly hot (50°) and had after ~6 hours and 1,5h Screen on time only 15% battery. After that trip it started to get a bit better with about 3h screen on time, but still far away from the Lollipop battery life.
Do you think my battery got old and bad, so that I should get a new battery? Are 3h SOT normal for the Xperia Z2?
Btw, Battery Optimisation is off and after I received the update I made a hard reset.

Wow, that is pretty bad.
My Z2 also on completely stock 6.0.1 (I got this one used, already on 6.0.1) hovers between 4-5H screen on time with constant Bluetooth and WIFI only. Here's one on an absolutely heavy day, I used the phone 100% straight after full charge, bluetooth and wifi on, mainly social media and Podcasts.
Maybe your Google Play Services is a big culprit here...? I mean, in your screenshots, their consumption is HUGE compared to my use (notice the 2% vs the 14% and 7% in OP.) I'd refer you to this guide to hopefully fix that. https://www.androidpit.com/google-play-services-battery-drain-how-to-fix-it
Good luck!
