Gino76, 10 Jul 2017But, how in the world would i know if a Z3 has "v.2.0" SD801? Ive had various Xperia phones in... morebattery life issues with previous z phones? No, even reviewers praise older z phones for their battery life, especially z3.
Now i know you are not a valid z owner.

      I recently updated my Xperia z5 to Nougat 7.1 1 version and realized that the battery drains pretty quickly even though the phone is on idle. Therefore looking for some useful tips to fix this issue..your suggestions and advice would be much more appreciated!

Ive had various Xperia phones in the past and All have the same problems: battery life. And i have started to think that it is poor and rushed software optimisations. Whenever I ring Sony customer services they seem to be oblivious of the issue (not recognising the issue) and instead blame Google for the "late" updates and by the time Sony pushes the update it's either too late or is poorly optimised.

              Gino76, 09 Jul 2017But if you have a newer SD810 and 3GB RAM surely won't that compensate for the "poor" battery ... morehey mate. Yeah you bet 801 is more officient and consistent in performance, hence z3 has a good impression. 810 is powerful and all that but not consistent. even v.2 has issues.
              The problem within it is it's read/writting processes, ive done research on the matter.
              the problem with it's power drainage lies behind rushed optimisation. They took their 4 core software and made it suitable for 8 core chips. That and that they wanted to have it ready asap as usual, that's why we have v.2 but still, it's still 810.
              Anyway there is little we can do to save our battery life and i wont lie to you, it can be better. Still z5 is the best 810 phone in the world so..

Don't know why Sony make such a big mistake using the 810 chip with the Z3+ and then again in the Z5.

                          Although the Z5 had dual heat pipes, it still ran like a toaster !
