I got my Nexus 18 months ago, the battery is still working perfectly, the only problem that presents me, is when making calls, the people who respond to me hear their return voice, out of that, the performance has always been the best.

I am facing the similar issue, however the performance has stabilized with last update. I am not sure if replacing the battery will help. Lets just hope the issue gets solved with a later update soon.

I'm having the battery drain problem after 14 months of owning this phone and of course it's out of warranty. Does replacing the battery actually work when it comes to replacing the battery? Anyone still experiencing this problem after replacing battery? Other than sending back to Huawaei where have others had their batteries replaced? Any local places for those who respond? I keep reading to downgrade to Nougat (think that's right)? how and where do I find instructions on how to do that and does it really resolve the problem?

Do not update Nexus 6P to Oreo, you run the risk of it becoming unusable for a eternal bootloop.

This phone is great. It's just a shame that it has battery issues. I don't over charge it battery is at 50 percent and phone turns off. Tried calling Huawei no help they trying to charge me over $150 to send it and they saying they will replace battery and send it back. Customer service is awful. The phone can be great just unreliable battery and company.

Best phone so far. People with battery problems probably charges overnight or don't remove the charger when it reached 100% after abot an hour or so.

literally the worst phone i have ever owned. smartphones i had before it were symbian phones, then a htc desire, wildfire and one m8 and one x. this Huawei is the worst phone i have ever owned. got it in december 2015 and from very early it had battery issues, now the battery doesnt last longer than 20 minutes and shuts down at 60%. Apps crash a lot, apps often seem sluggish, i have always found the camera to be horrendous with patchy images especially at night time, they pics are horrid. i have reset the phone numerous times and tried all the fixes with no joy. the phone recently updated to android 8.1.0 and its now become slower with micro pauses and it wont now connect to 3G or 4G even after another factory and cache reset and just installing basic apps like whatsapp. i have become so annoyed with it i have thrown it as the wall a few times. ill just buy a cheaper phone next when my contract runs out end of december 2017, a phone with removable battery. all these non removable battery phones are crap anyway by end of year one.! Never touching Huawei again!!! naff!

Keeping updated but also factory data reset wipes memory of unnecessary bits the device needs to try and hang onto. I also carry a 10,000 MW type C port rechargeable back up battery and type C cable so I can charge the phone quick when I'm not using it right then. Great idea about keeping a standard type USB cable I also do that when it's on my desk. Android software Nougat, has suggested the on device photo cache could be trimmed from time to time to help with battery life and I have done this too.

Then to put back together becomes the issue. I guess there are no smart phones with true replaceable batteries anymore i.e. open back and replace as quickly as this sentence. I'll give the replace a miss and express my disappointment with a warranty claim.

Excellent phone but way too expensive for the duration of the battery. Got my phone 13 months ago and had to change the whole phone since it is impossible to change only the battery. That is simply unacceptable. You don't pay that price for a year of usage. And why throw away a good phone only for a dead battery?

For all those people experiencing battery drain issues, let's try these steps:
1. update to latest Android version and then root using magisk.zip latest version.
2.Remove all system apps from phone which you find useless or never used using titanium backup apk.
3.replace google now launcher with pixel 2 xl modded launcher (nexusprebuiltlauncher.apk) and then delete stock goggle now launcher.
4.Always keep brightness minimum and turnoff adaptive automatic brightness change.Turn on adaptive Brightness only when using phone in dark.since,this lower the brightness to real minimum than manual minimum brightness.
5.use dark wallpapers like grey or black like.
6.charge your phone with normal charger of 1amp instead of fast charger.This will increase battery life and produces less heat.use fast charger only when yiu are in hurry.
7.Use VIBRAFIX APK from playstore to mute all annoying vibration like fingerprint,double press power buttton,ok google response etc etc.This will increase battery life.
Turn off vibration,notifications,touch etc sound.
8. Alwayas update each third party apps for less battery consumption.
9.use greenify to hibernate apps which doesn't require to in the background all the time except whatspp,imo etc.
10.Customize your phone setting to basic simple and less features.
11. Alwayas keep eye on battery consumption in setting by individual apps.
12. Don't use phone while charging.
13.Prefer to charge in switchoff mode.
14.Turnoff data,location,auto rotation,sync, Bluetooth,wifi auto search etc. when not in use.
15.Use ad blocking lists to add in hosts file to block all ads.
search in xda mother of all ad blocking sites.replace your hosts file with this.
