Dr., 30 Jul 2020I tried all the options you told me but still the battery drain issue persists. Just recently ... moreDid you do a full factory reset? If battery drain still persists after a full factory reset, then you certainly have a defective or used unit. Accelerated battery wear/aging that cause battery drain doesn't happen overnight. However, if a bad seller sold you a demo unit (one that was used in a retail store for customer's testing) and not really brand new, then that explains the high battery drain. In any case, battery drain in a new A71 is unusual. I'm afraid you'll just have to return it and ask for a refund if it really doesn't survive a day of light to moderate use because given its 4500mAh battery, it should have plenty left at the end of the day.
Socks, 26 Jul 2020Oneplus has better build quality yes but the double hole punch will be pretty annoyingThis did not age well.
I'm a galaxy s7 user but it's been overheating for a while now plus some other issues as it's an old device and I'm thinking of getting the a71. is it worth it going from the s series to the a?
Dr., 30 Jul 2020I tried all the options you told me but still the battery drain issue persists. Just recently ... moreYou are wasting your life monitoring petty issue like how many percent battery use in 24 hours, how many minutes each percent drop & etc.
Is the overall battery SOT that counts.
If you want a phone with battery hardly moved you should get those phone with huge battery like M31 with 6000mha battery or Asus Rog Phone 2, Umidigi Power 3
Then you can watch the battery drain in 2-3 days .. lol
What's your problem? Your A71 battery can't last till end of the day ? You need to bring your power bank all day ? You want to binch game playing for 12 hours ?
[deleted post]Probably only certain unit, my A71 no issue with battery drainage, i am getting 8 hours SOT, most of the time I still has 45% at night, unplugged 6am & plug in 10pm, this is more than enough for me, I too has a M31 with 6000mha battery which has crazy 10 hours SOT
I've been facing the battery draining issue too...could anyone help regarding this?or could we just complaint to samsung with the issue to be fixed?

I checked the stats and it shows not a damn thing what is causing the drain.
10% is too much drop when I practically keep the phone like it's off. I don't use anything at all when the phone is on standby.
Still having 1% drop every 8-10 mins for just browsing twitter and nothing running in the background.

Somebody please explain why is this happening? Is this software issue or the hardware?

On standby alone my battery consumes 10% in 24 hours. Can your please share your sot for 3 days use? Also share how much standby drop do you see?

You can't ignore the fact that it is just 1080p display and packs 4500 mah battery. With advanced power saving snapdragon processor and very highly optimized Android 10.
I understand it depends on the usage but still the battery is not performing well, at least in my case. I'm very disappointed.
Hi. I'm seeing too much battery drain time by time. Tried everything but still the battery drain issue on standby and during use doesn't stop.
About standby, the phone dropped 10% in 24 hour standby. Phone was in deep sleep, brightness to 0%, power saving mode on, flight mode on, wifi off, all the apps of phone are already put in deep sleep. Still 10% drop? I don't understand.
During use it drops 1% every 8-10 mins for just using Twitter app to read tweets. Brightness 5%, power saving mode on, flight mode but wifi on, dark mode on always, disabled all the bloatware apps, always on display disabled. What should I do? It looks like I made a mistake buying this phone.
Are you guys having the same issue with battery life or is it just me?

How much battery is dropping on standby? Please give the honest review because as much as I like this phone the battery is terrible.
I had 10% drop when I kept the phone on standby for 24 hours. No wifi, flight mode on, all apps put to deep sleep, no always on display. Practically the phone was turn into basic. Browsed the battery settings and the stupid statistics page shows no cause for the battery drain.

San, 29 Jul 2020Wanted to know which is better value for moneyThe price variance are to wide to compare for better value for money, imagine you compare a BMW 330 vs Toyota Corolla 2.0 & Maruti 800.
If you can afford a BMW you won't even take a look at Corolla what more a pathetic Maruti 800.
