Oneplus 3 battery problems

[UnlimitedTMD]

Hey guys,

 

I`ve been using my Oneplus 3 happily for like a week or so now, but I need to recharge it constantly.

I use it regularly without very demanding apps opened and it`s drained within 5/6 hours, while I barely touched it.

 

I tested it without any apps running and only with wifi running and it still got to 0% within 6 hours...

 

I haven`t seen any reports on this, so anyone got the same problem?

You should look at the battery draining stats. I have this problem currently with my Redmi Note 3. "Android System" can suddenly eat all my battery without any reasons and i can lost 30% overnight at idle. Clearing cache resolves the problem for me. This problem is too recurrent on Android devices... Usually, it completely goes away with a system update, but I never found the exact reason for such a weird battery drain from the system. Might be a sudden 100% use at full speed of the CPU.

thanks, I`ll have a look when it`s drained yet again. It doesn`t show any stats atm. I was looking for new system updates, but I`m up to date, but once the RAM update comes, I hope this gets resolved too.

Ok. With normal battery drain, the screen is often the more demanding piece of hardware, and the Android System shouldn't suck all the life out of your battery. If it's the case, congrats, you're yet another Android user to experience this

I'd check around on the internet if other people are facing this issue. If not, just send it back for an RMA.

I haven`t seen anyone sadly, but if I wanna return it, I`ll have to send it far, which aint cheap

Oh.  I don't know to be honest. Well I wanted to get the One plus 3 as well. This is just putting me off from getting it.

I think I`m like the only one... but it may fix itself, no worries. Other than that, the phone is great, but big, really big

If it's a software problem caused by the Android system, believe me, you're not the only one. Search for generic Android smartphones, not only the OnePlus 3. Look at the battery stats when it's draining before getting to any rash conclusion. And if you see that this is in fact a software issue, try wiping cache and it should be fine. At least while waiting for an update

6 hours of screen on time? or 6 hours on standby
